Coffee Has a Curious Way OF Finally
Attacking Some Organ
Ais that come from coffee are
cumulative, that is, unless the coffee
is taken away new troubles are con-
tinually appearing and the old ones
get worse.
TO begin with says a Kansan, 4
was a slave to coffee Just as thou
sands of others to-day; thought
could not live without drinking strong
coffee every morning for breakfast
and I had sick headaches that kept
me in bed several days every month.
Could hardly keep my food on my
stomach but would vOmit as long as
I could throw anything up and when
1 could get hot coffee to stay on my
stomach I thought 1 was better.
Well, two years ago this spring I
was that sick with rheumatism
could not use my right arm to do any
thing, had heart trouble, was nery-
GUS Ny nerves were all Unstrung
and my finger nails and tips were
blue as if l had a chill all the time
and my face and hands yellow as a
pumpkin. Ny doctor said it was heart
disease and rheumatism and my
ne:ghbOrs said I had Bright's disease
and was going to die.
We'll, I did not know what on
earth was the matter and every morn
ing would drag myself out Of bed and
go to breakfast, not to eat anything.
but to force down some more coffee
Then in little while I would be so
nervous, my heart would beat like
everything
Finally one morning told my hus-
band I believed coffee was the cause
OF this trouble and that 1 thought /

Why Engineer Cried Over Little

Yes. indeed, we have some queer
little incidents happen to us" said
the fat engineer Queer things hap
peued to me about a year ago. You'd
think it queer for a rough man like
me to cry for ten minutes, and no
body hurt, either, would you? Well,
1 did, and I can almost cry every
time I think Of It
I was running along one afternoon
pretty lively when I approached a lit
tie village where the track cuts
through the streets I Stacked up a
little. but was still making good
speed, when suddenly, about twenty
rods ahead Of me, a little girl not
more than years old toddled onto
the track You can't even imagine
my feelings. There was no way to
save her It was impossible to stop,
or even slack much, at that distance,
as the train was heavy and the grade
descending In ten seconds 1t would
have been all over; and after revers-
ing and applying the brake, I shut my
eyes I didn't want TO see any more.
AS we slowed down my fireman
stuck his head out of the cab window
TO see what I'd stopped for, when he
laughed and shouted at me: Jim,
look herel' 1 looked, and there was
a big black Newfoundland dog hold
ing the little girl in his mouth, Ieis-
urely walking toward the house
where she evidently belonged. she
was kicking and crying, so that
knew she wasn't hurt, and the dog
had saved her. Ny fireman thought
it funny, and kept laughing, but
cried like a woman I just cOuldn'

story we'll told by personality we like
TO listen to Just partly for the linger
compelling pull of the personal touch
itself; and if we take the point of view
that possibly Ivory Steele lived out her
life correctly because of the peculiar
ambitious nature she was born endow-
ed with, yet was there in it the in
terest of a heart-wring thwarting both
to herself and that persistent lover who
lost the love-half of his life because she
had promised the dreams of his youth
that which the wealth of her woman
hood was not whole enough TO be able
to give.
For consideration of the general
question of n-domestic woman there
are some sentences worth culling. Here
is one from the doctor who gave the
definition of the woman errant: Says
Barbara: mo man that lives gives
woman truly higher place than faith
er, yet from his rich experience none
better knows the indisputable actuality
of her nerve limits, whose fount is
identical with the form of her exist
ence." In a letter from Anne wife of
Aquila Truesdale. professor of soci-
ology," occurs this quotation: with
woman the permanence of the broader
training that fits for the higher pro-
fessions can never be relied upon, and
therefore is of little consideration. As
long as she is the Matrix of the race
" hen her hour strikes she must yield
or suffer, for nature forbids the double
strain"
After all, about books on this phase
OF the woman question, whether they
be in fiction form, or treatise deep on
philosophy, physiology, or sociology
anent the body or the soul of the thing
are they not but either sensibly COR
roborative Of, or futilely fencing
against, what has been definitely set
tied forever by Tennyson when he
wrote the Princess? That deliverance
sounds as If it were the decision of
some supernal Supremest Court, writ
ten by the hand of a divinely chosen
Chief Justice; and all special made to
move us romantically to it's acceptance
because the message comes in sweet
est music, and presses true philosophy
deep home upon our hearts in all the
persuading power of truth when it ut
ters itself in poem.

ishly and breathed heavily and sweat.
He postponed the purchase of his
fathers pillow. His father could wait,
for he had waited long and had got
used to waiting. So he saved his sup
per money and learned to love to go
supperless to bed for love Of the Twi-
light girl. AT last he sent her the bed
and pillow anonymously. She OWNED
the donor, and coming down to the
conservatory thanked him frankly.
She did not care so much about the
separate pillow, but it pleased her
nightly that the boy cared so much
for her. He did not stop starving a
meal a day, however, until he had
bought his father a separate bed and
pillow to be all his own.
This was the musicians first love,
but not his first experience Of being
loved That is another story of artts-
tic temperament. The peasant women
round his fathers home did not please
the boys eyes. He wondered that wo-
men should be called fair. Looked at
from front or rear they appeared to
him to be too square. From side
view they seemed as if Providence had
fastened cushions on them in unseemly
places. The miller's daughter took a
fancy to him. When he came with the
family grist she went a quarter to
meet him and insisted on carrying his
sack and talking to him. When he sat
down by the millrace she sat beside
him. He threw rocks in the stream,
looked at the birds and leaves, but not
at her, for he liked her not. She
pressed her foot against his and gig
gled.
Then she kissed him aloud The
adolescent artist rose in wrath. and,
being stronger than she, beat her. He
did 1t with shingle which he found
lying handy Did it with the shingle
until the shingle broke. Then he did
it with a little plank. The little plank
broke also.
Later the youth felt sad about what
he had done. But his regret was more
Of malicious remorse than of pure pen
itence. He was not satisfied with the
amount of pain he had given the mill
girl, for he feared she was too fat to
feel He went home and told his
father what the girl did to him and
what he did to the girl. That conf
dant told him confidently that very
fat girl could not be very much hurt
by that method. So the boy artist
