fooled by coffee when doctors themselves some
times forget the facts.
A physician speaks Of his own experience:
~ had used coffee for years and really did not
exactly believe It injuring me although had
palpitation Of the heart every day.
Finally one day severe and almost fatal ut
tack Of heart trouble frightened me and gave up
both snd coffee. using Postum instead and since
that time l have had absolutely heart palpita-
ton except on one or two occasions when tried
q small quantity Of coffee, which caused severe if
ritation and proved to me / must let It alone.
when we began using Postum 1t seemed weak
that was because did not make It according
to direetions-but now put little bit Of butter
in the pot when boiling and allow the Postum
to boil full Is minutes which gives It the proper
rich favor and the deep brown colo,f
IL have advised great many Of my friends and
patients to leave OF coffee and drink Postum in

WHAT AND WHY.

Why should substitutes for SCOTS
Emulsion be refused?
Because they do not begin to offer
the equivalent of food value contain
ed in SCOTS Emulsion.
Why should special care be taken
to avoid so-called wines, cordials and
extracts of cod liver oil?
Because they contain a large per-
centage of alcohol and afford only
temporary stimulation.
Does not SCOTS Emulsion also
stimulate the body?
Yes, but 1t is stimulation through
nourishment.
What vital food principle is in
volved in the action of SCOTS Emul-
sion?
Direct and perfect nourishment
without tax on the stomach.

continuous and increasing, II being diff
ficult to provide school accommodations
rapidly enough to keep pace with the
increase of population Through the
recommendations and assistance Of the
association four school buildings have
been erected during this period, and
during the past year an appropriation
was secured for another building. and
through the suggestion of the associa-
ton many betterments have been made
In the management of the schools.
A resolution was adopted requesting
the Commissioners to furnish a detailed
statement Of all real estate in the Dis
trict of Columbia. which is exempt from
taxation. In compliance Herewith the
Commissioners directed the Assessor to
prepare such a statement which. when
completed. was presented to the Sen
ate and printed. and will be valuable in
the future consideration of the question
of the exemption of property from tax

Numerous other questions have been
considered and acted upon. which. ow-

thorized TO do that But there are GER
tain public measures of great impor
tance TO Columbia Heights to which the
association is committed. and which, it
is fair TO assume, 1t will continue to
push vigorously TO the end.
Among these are:
l. The acquisition of ground for a pub
Tic park in Columbia Heights. We favor
the selection of the oak grove, bounded
by Fourteenth Street and Columbia
Road, and as this site is also approved
by the Commissioners, there IS reason
for hoping, at least. that 1t will be
agreed to by them. This project should
have the vigorous support of every resi-
dent OF the hill.
, The extension and Improvement of
Thirteenth and Fourteenth Streets.
3. The Improvement of FifteeLtb
Street, greatly needed public work
l. The Improvement of the lower end
OF sherman Avenue.
.. The Improvement of Clifton Street,
east OF Thirteenth Street
b: Inc securing of high school for
Columbia Heights and Mount Pleasant
Scars of an Old Nuisance.
Columbia Heights is reasonably free
from the overhead wire and pole nuis-
ance, thanks to the vigilance of the as
ISOLATION ana the people. but some of
our streets are yet married by the pres
ence of many of those unsightly and
Objectionable objects. and 1t should be
the policy of the association in the fu-
ture to work for their total demolition.
l believe the association ought to take
a strong stand in opposition to what
we all regard as the very unfair atti-
tude of Congress. whereby the whole
cost of street extensions and suburban
improvements are placed on the shoul-
ders of the District and the property
owners-a policy which, in many in
stances. means practical coniscation of
individual holdings.
Steps in the interest of the adornment
of the homes have recently been taken,
and interesting developments in that di-
rection may be expected.
The press has greatly aided us in the
past in our efforts for neighborhood i'm
provement. and we hope for a continu-
ance of this friendly public spirit on the
! part of The Times and its contem-
poraries GEORGE SIMMONS.

stricken out. The association was also
represented at hearings of the House
Of Representatives committee. which
had this bill under consideration, and
that committee was requested to restore
to the bill the provision requiring free
transfers, and the enactment of the bill
was recommended as a public necessity.
The bill is still under consideration by
Congress.
hot Fight Against Cold Cars.
The residents of Northeast Washing
ton have suffered during the past win
ter from the use of combination cars on
the Columbia Line These cars have
closed compartments occupying one
third their length. the other portion
being open and similar to cars used in
the summer season. So uncomfortable
are these cars, and so unsuitable for use
during cold and Indictment weather, that
they are commonly called cattle cars
and refrigerator cars. and Il has been
claimed. by physicians and others that
many cases of Illness have resulted from
their use. Early in the season the as
ISOLATION began a vigorous crusade
against these cars; a committee waited
on officials of the company several
times. protesting against the use of these
cars. and requesting relief, but failed
to secure satisfactory results.
A petition protesting against the fur
Their use of these cars was circulated
along II Street, and was signed by $50
residents, and thousands of signatures
could have been secured If the petition
had been circulated among patrons of
the road residing on contiguous streets.
This petition was presented to the Com
missioners by a committee which was
appointed for the purpose at a hearing
and the Commissioners We're requested
to make such a police regulation as
would prohibit the use of open cars dur
ing the winter months. The request was
referred to the Corporation Counsel, who
decided that the Commissioners are
without authority to make such regu-
lation
The next step of the association was
to draft a bill requiring the use of
closed and heated cars from November
TO April l of every year. This bill was
introduced in both the Senate and
House of Representatives. It was about
this time that eight closed cars of the
most approved pattern were placed in
use on this line, this being about one
third of the whole number of cars op-
Grated on this line afforded only partial
relief, so efforts TO secure the enact
ment of the bill requiring the use Of
is still pending.
Public Schools and Other Interests.
During the past twelve years the as
ISOLATION has been a champion II public
education, and its work in this line is
