COFFEE HEART.
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
NOW RECOGNIZE THE
DISEASE.

The Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette,
a famous authority, said in a recent
issue Medical examiners for life
insurance companies have added the
term coffee heart TO their regular
classification of the functional de.
rangements Of that organ. Its effect
is in shortening the long beat of the
heart. Coffee topers, they say, are
plentiful and as much tied 10 their
cups as the whiskey topper. The
effect Of coffee upon the heart is
more lasting and consequently worse
than that of liquor"
A well known physician specialist
Of Ladoga, Ind, tells how he treats
such cases. He has had many such.
He says: 81 will mention one case
in my prsctice-Mrs. H., age 81, very
fieshy, family history good, had
been for more than three years con-
slant sufferer from headache, heart
trouble and smothering spells, accom-
panied by nervousness. Had to lie
down when attacked by these spells.
She was treating all the time, but got
worse.
az soon found out that she had
coffee heart, and promptly cured her
in this way: l forbade her coffee and
put her on Postum Cereal Coffee In
stead. She reported in five weeks and
said she had not had bad spsll since
and felt sound and well. This was
four years ago and she is now . pic
ture of perfect health and happiness.
This is only one case out of many.
l knew the doctors bills would be
small, but also knew the case would
bring lots of others to me. Few PEG.
pie realize the great value of Postum.
It is not 'oure-sll, but 1t has been
the means of relief to perhaps more
people than any one thing ever intro
duced in the American bill of fare.

in a decision for FitZsimmons.
Fitzsimmons was as awkawrd and

punishment from Gardner he could not

The fighting did not please the
spectators and the men in the ring
were frequently Kissed when they
went through a round without ap-
parently trying to fight.
Referee Ed Graney at the close of
the contest said that it was the worst
fight he ever saw. He was forced TO
give the decision to FitZsimmons be-

New York, Nov 27.-The Colombian
government has notified the Panama
Canal company of Paris that it will
not allow il TO transfer its privileges
to the United States and that in case
the concession expires the privileges
must belong to Colombia, says a Bo-
gotta dispatch to the Herald.
It is also stated that the lsthmians

guarantees and never have been in
any way disturbed.
A Panama dispatch to the Herald,
commenting on the Bogota informa-
tion, says
The foregoing dispatch is considered
on the istnmus as mere Colombian
bravado. 1t is not believed here that
that the French government would
countenanee these pretensions on the
part of Colombia.

RELEASE OF CAPTAIN CARTER.
Attorney General Knox Decides 1t
Shall Occur on Nov %.

Washington, Nov. 27.-By decision
reached by Attorney General Knox,
Captain Oberlin NJ Carter will be re-
leased from the Fort Leavenworth,
Kan. prison on Nov. 2S. Any doubt
on the matter arose from the question
whether or not the six months during
which Captain Carter was incarcerat-
ed in Governors Island, pending an
attempt to obtain release through
habeas corpus proceedings, should be
counted as a portion of the five years
term in prison to which he was SEN
fenced. The attorney general holds
that this six months should be so
counted and this with the remis-
sion of time granted on account of
good behavior will secure Captain Car
ters release on Nov %.
