The Robust Physique Can Stand More
Coffee Than a Weak One.
A young Virginian says: Having
. naturally robust constitution far
above the average and not having a
nervous temperament, my system was
able to resist the inroads upon it
by the use of coffee for some years but
finally the strain began to tell.
For ten years 1 have been employ
ed as telegraph operator and type
writer by a railroad in this section
and until two years ago had used cof-
fee continually from the time l was
eight years old, nearly 20 years.
The work of operating the tele-
graph key is a great strain upon the
nerves and after the days work was
over would feel nervous, irritable,
run down and toward the last suffer-
ed greatly from insomnia and neu-
ralgia. As I never INDUCED in intoxf-
eating liquors, drugs or tobacco in
any form 1 came to the conclusion
that coffee and tea were causing the
gradual breakdown of my nervous
system and having read an article in
the Medical Magazine on the compost
ton of coffee and its toxic effect upon
the system, was fully convinced that
coffee was the cause of my trouble.
Seeing Postum spoken of as not
having any of the deteriorating eff
fects of coffee decided to give up the
stimulant and give Postum trial. The
result was agreeably surprising. After
time my nerves became wonderfully
strong, 1 can do all my work at the
telegraph key and typewriter with far
greater ease than ever before. My
weight has increased IS pounds, my
general health keeping pace with it,

RECORD RUN TO KANSAS CITY,
Wabash Train Makes Trip in Five
Hours and Fifty Minutes.

Wabash Train Makes Trip in Five
Hours and Fifty Minutes.
Wabash train No. 9, fast mail be-
tween ST. Louis and Kansas City,
made a record-breaking run from st.
Louis to Kansas City Sunday after
noon.
The schedule time for starting is
2:20 p. M, and the regular time for
the run is seven hours and ten mir
utes. No. 9 started one hour late,
lost twenty minutes on the way and
pulled into Kansas City on time, max
ing the run in five hours and fifty
minutes, five minutes faster than any
previous record.
There was a full equipment of a
mail car, combination car, chair car
and diner. At many places along the
route the train showed a speed OF
seventy miles an hour, and between
Mexico and Montgomery City a mile
a minute was reeled off. The dis
lance is twenty-four miles, and it took
just twenty-four minutes to make the
trip.
The train was in charge of Con-
ductor ]. S. Gould. The engineer was

power in the far east was entirely
upset.
Russia, one expert says, is in the
position of a chess player who loses
his queen in the first half dozen
moves The naval position of the
Russians at Port Arthur is considered
absolutely desperate, and it is thought
most unlikely that Vladivostok's
squadron of four powerful armored
cruisers will be able to go to the
assistance of the battered fleet at Port
Arthur.
Admiral Stark's position there is
Hkened to Cervera's at Santiago. He
is described as being between the
horns of a dilemma. He must either
submit to be held under the guns of
Port Arthur in a posture intensely
humiliating to Russian pride and pres
ttge, or he must come out and fight
in a condition of inferiority which
would render defeat almost a foregone
conclusion. Whatever now happens.

that of Great Britain after the initial

too shallow in it's northern portion to

ITO land near Vladivostok would be

would have to be secured against

THE difficulties of landing at any of

likely that Japan would willingly
place any large force in Corea except
as concerns a road to Manchuria in
the absence of any better road. But
is not the sea a better road? That is
the question I find some difficulty in
answering. There are three points at
which an army if landed would be
well placed for operating against the
Russian communication. They are
the north coast of the Liaotung gulf

There was a great scene at the

the rank of officers. The czar, who
wore an admiral's uniform, in address
ing the cadets, said:
