A SOLDIERS FOE

Knocked Down by Unsuspected Enemy.
 Coffee so affects the brain and nerves that proper nutrition is interfered with and the final ending is frequently ner- vOus prostration.
 During the Spanish-American war. I went with my troop to Chickamauga. '' says Lieut.. J. c. TalbOtt of Springfield. Ills. If there is any one place on earth where one drinks more coffee than another i, is in the army. It is a soldiers back bone and I can assure you that I drank my share. After scv- cral months of hard drilling my health gave out, the chief cause being coffee. bad food, over exertion and heat.
 On the advice of the surgeon. I ten dered my resignation and with my heart full of regret and my nervous system shattered, I returned home. AL most the first thing the doctor whom l consulted advised me was to quit coffee That was the first intimation I had tha; coffee had anything to do with my con- dition. The next thing was what shall l drink?'
 My wife's mother used your Postuni Food Coffee and knew how to make it right so I tried it and grew very fond of it. My nervous trouble soon left: my old time health came back. and that Fall I gained so in flesh that the boys on returning after muster out hardly knew me. Quitting coffee and using Postum did wonders for me-"

NOT ONE GOT AWAY
The Phenomenal Work of a Phoenix
 Pot Hunter.

Since seven o'clock last Sunday morning a sportsman of this town has been calling upon Lew Collins once an hour swearing him to secrecy regard ing a sporting event which happened along the river below the city. Mir Collins was out hunting before day light. He shot eight gre2I head ducks about sunup. That was sport enough for one day so that he preceded to have a little fun with himself. He anchored the ducks in a foot of water and propped their heads up in the most natural looking manner. He walked back from the river out of sight of the stream and then back again mak- ing himself almost believe that he had found a new flock. This was as good as the actual hunting and involved less leg work He became SD absorbed in this sport that he found himself be- lieving more strongly than ever that the ducks were alive.
 It then occurred to him that he might have some fun with some other sports man. He watched by the river bank an hour or mere until he saw victim strollinE down the river with his eye peeled for ducks. MT. Collins Crept back into the brush to be out of range of the fusillade which he knew in his inmost soul would shortly ensue.
 The new conner saw the ducks at a distance of an eighth of a mile. He stole upon them in the most approved manner for caution. He stalked them for d quarter of an hour, every instant fearful of a rise That is what he would have wanted if there had been anybody else in sight for he is a true sportsman and when he is watched is q great stickler for the ethics of sport. But here he was alone with no eye but Gods upon him SO that he could not resist the temptation to murder those ducks. He would have used a gatling next best thing and turned loose both barrels upon the unsuspecting birds. When the smoke cleared away an as founding scene was presented. There were all the ducks still peacefully float ing and there was MT. Collins on the bank jumping up and down yelling, "You got 'em all. You got em all. Not damned duck got away. Good shot. Good shot"
 The shooter approached Mir. Collins and said Lew, we've always been good friends. Don't. let this thing i get out among the boys
 "Of course not" said Mr. Collins. T haven't anything against you and if I had I ain't naturally cruel wouldn't give such a thing away even on an enemy
