THEY ARE CAREFUL.
London Armenian Papers Very Guarded
in Their Utterances,

Boston, Oct. 2S.--Put in fear by the
murder of the Armenian leader Sagouni
at London. yesterday, the editors of the
two Armenian papers published in this
city are observing the greatest precau-
tons in all their movements, today. At
the offices of Young Armenia, the organ
of the party which has brought charges
of misrepresentation of funds against
another faction OF the Armenian revo-
lutionary committee, the doors were
locked and no one was admitted. AT
the offices of the Voice of Freedom. on
Beach street. similar measures of eau
ton were observed, though less strictly.
This conduct by the editors has been
brought about largely through the in
fuence of their friends who have i'm
pressed upon them that they are I'M
doubtedly in danger They claim it is
evident from the four cases Of murder
or attempted murder that the Arme-
MAN party which has been charged
with wrong doing has planned to do
harm to its aecusers. The fear felt by
the newspaper editors is also shared,

COFFEE PARALYSIS
A Well Defined Case.

Coffee paralysis is not common hut
| there are more cases than folks imagine
and there are cases where the nervous
victim keeps on with the coffee until
| the trouble is chronic and incurable.
On the other hand there are many
cases where leaving off the coffee and
drinking Postum Food Coffee in its
place has resulted in complete and
speedy cures as in the following:
For several years ] was in an alarm
ing condition and had consulted every
physician in our town besides three
visiting specialists. My trouble baffle,i
them all, but their different verdicts
frightened me and the treatment pro-
posed was long. tedious and very ex-
pensive. My husband had already spent
a small fortune trying to help me and
the last effort was $40 experiment
which did no good.
My trouble was a numbness or half
paralyzed sensation that would creep
over me especially bad at nicht, com
mencing in my arms, shoulders and
down to my left side and was followed
by terrible pains and 4 prickly sensa-
ton that is beyond description. My
hands would puff up and feel like great
Jumps, so thick and heavy and I'M
natural. / could do absolutely no work
of any kind.
1T was then that my mother per-
suaded me that my condition was
largely due to the use OF coffee of
which | was a great lover. She knew
what leaving off coffee and using
Postum had done in her own case and
she finally persuaded me to wake the
same shift. which | did without muck
faith. To my everlasting surprise the
change was wonderful for all my old
complaints soon lessened and are now
completely gone. The terrible feelings
and sensations that l cannot describe
have stopped completely and feel as If
new rich. red blood was flowing through,
my veins bringing me health and hap
piness.

ing stopped coffee and used Postum.
