Need of a Strong Navy.

Indianapolis, Sept. 24.-In his speech
here yesterday the president said:
IF we are not prepared to back up
words by deeds, it is far better to omit
the words. 1 believe in the Monroe doc
trine with all my heart. I believe in as
serting it because I believe the American
people are willing to back it up. But it
never can be backed up by words alone.
If it became the interest of some great
power to violate it. most assuredly that
great power would do so if it was thought
that we would only buster and threaten,
or if it was believed our force was too
weak to be formidable in a fight. A good
navy is absolutely essential if we intend
to treat the Monroe doctrine as we should
treat it-that is, as. the cardinal feature Of
our foreign policy. The fleet is in a pc
culiar sense the property of the nation as
whole. Every American, whether inland
or on the seacoast, if he is both Insight
ed and patriotic, should be peculiarly jeal-
Gus about the efficiency of. the navy. 1t
would be the right arm of this country in
the event of foreign trouble. Disaster to
it would send a thrill Of mortal anguish
through the heart Of every good citizen;
and the triulnphs won by it would in the
future, as they have in the past make
every American hold his head higher in
pride and joy. The navy must be built up,
and it must be continually exercised and
trained, so that the officers and men may
attain the highest degree of excellence in
handling the great war engines intrusted
to their care" . r.. -. TO- 80.

GOES TO GERMANY
Particular Travellers Demand the lmpor-
tation of American Articles,

IT had drank coffee since babyhood, and
although I was very nervous and dyspep-
tic I could not and would not believe that
coffee had anything to do with 1T, writes
an American lady now living in Munich,
Germany.
My physician finally convinced me that
coffee was at the bottom of all my troub-
les, and 1 tried many things to take it's
place, but nothing satisfied the craving
for real coffee. At last, one day in a half
hearted, Idespairing mood, I bought from
the grocer some Postum Food Coffee. My
grown-up daughter, who by the way
had inhereited my taste for coffee and
also my nervousness laughed and said.-
Don't you know that nothing can take
the place of well made coffee, half Java
and half Mocha, with plenty of rich
cream?'
II firmly believe it, I replied, but
drowning man will grasp at a straw, and
am getting more nervous every day, and
can hardly eat anything at ALL and DR.. S.,
like the rest of the physicians, tells me it
all comes from coffee
$50 next morning I personally made a
pot Of Postum, following closely the di-
rections-and such a surprise! The color
was rich, dark, whey brown, and a
pleasant aroma greeted the nostrils But
the taste-the crucial test! I confess
feared to put it to that test for fear OF
another disappointment
But not so with my daughter, who
eagerly made the trial and fairly shouted
-'Hurrah! Mamma, you have found it at
last I tried it and that ended our coffee
drinking for good. The flavor was full
and rich and left nothing to be desired.
~ I'm a short time, my dyspepsia disap-
peared and as for nerves,-my daughter
and myself almost forgot that such
things existed, until we came to Germany
and had to go back to coffee and we are
again nervous and dyspeptic as we
used to be. But we don't intend to let il
go on; have written to America for a
good supply of Postum and propose tc
always have it in the future at any cost
Life is miserable to us without Postum
when we used it, Postum proved the
most gentle Of conquerors and loaded us
with benefits in the way of strengthened
health and quiet nerves. Name giver
