FAIR FOLKS
Don't Blame Nature Hut Investigate

Many claim they are nervous by ma
ture" when II is really only because
they are slaves to the coffee habit
and this ia easily proved By cutting
out the coffee or tea for 10 days ana
using well boiled Postum Food Gomez
instead-then comes the change.
II seemed endowed by nature with n
nervous constitution" says n lady OF
Knoxville, Tenn, "and although | felt
tea and coffee were bad for me the
force OF habit was 30 strong l just
couldn't give them up.
Somebody suggested that ] try GER
cal coffee, but ! remembered that name
during the civil War and so without
ever looking into the subject Of realiz-
ing what progress science has made in
this direction l just woundn't give
Postum a trial until finally the w G..

where there were so many calls for
Postum IL was served regularly and
many were this induced 10 try II, my
self among the number. How delighted
/ was 10 find II 80 agreeable, delicious
and satisfying As l had suffered from
nervous prostration a change from tea
and coffee was imperative, but all
these troubles disappeared after I had
used the Postum faithfully for a few
weeks,
"a sister and son-in-law were con-
verted 10 Postum AT the same time and
now we all enjoy IT as well ms we ever
aid coffee but instead Of making us
nervous like coffee we enjoy steady
nerves, sleep sound and are In every
way bitter for the chance" Name
given by Postum CO., Battle Creek,

This lady found what she though was
natural nervousness was only due 10 an
acquired taste Of coffee that Is TO some
people n sure destroyer Of nerves and
health. Like her, anyone who cuts on
coffee altogether and uses well boiled

Wapakoneta, Ohio March 13.-Mrs.
j. II. Cooke is dead and her little girl
is in critical condition while three
other persons were made seriously i'll
by gas escaping from the furnace of
the Cooke home. The danger of the
family was discovered by servant
early this morning who after trying to
arouse the inmates of the house
brought in help from the neighbors.
The family were almost asphyxiated
in the same way month ago but the
defect in the furnace was repaired and
all was thought to be safe.

RATHER F|SHY
Story About the Con.
scripting Of Russians.

The Akron Times-Democrat has a
story that Russian agents have been
in that city gathering up unnatural.
lied citizens OF Russia and are com.
pelling them to go back to Europe to
take part in the war. 1t is stated that
on last Saturday three from Green
town were taken into Akron where
they Joined squad of a score OF
more. The story is that the Rus.
SLAMS are all going back willingly. In
some sections the Russians are max
ing some haste to get naturalized SO
that they cannot be impressed into the
service.
There is no law, national or inter.
national, that would take a man out
of this country and compel him to re
turn to Europe for military purposes
II any one does return, it will be OF
his own free will or through ignorance
of his rights. The whole story has q
rather flshy ring, as nothing is known
of the impressment of the Greentown
Russians. In Canton there has been
no effort to get recruits and those
who would be eligible desire to keep q
couple of oceans between themselves
and japanese bullets.

THAT new Y LINE

TIL Akron papers are booming the
project Of T. l.. Childs for a new inter
urban line between that city and Can
ton and Massillon. All that seems to
stand in the way are terminal facili.
ties in that city. The plan is the old
one which was sprung by the n. o. T.
company when the Canton-Akron was
first projected. Ii is for a line run
ming out some where near Reedpgban,
when,a would be built and a branch
run into both Canton and Massillon.
Akron argues that the more lines Of
this kind the better and the Canton
people feel the same way. The Can.
ton-Akron acquired the right of way
from the N. O. T, and so far as the
public knows still owns it. 1t might
sell it to the new promoter.
The indications are that the new
line II built would not in any way in.
terfere with or compete with the pres
ent lines. New territory would be
opened up for all the terminal c.ues.

VAIN HUNT

The latest reports from the scout

the ships of war of the enemy indi-
Gates that there are no Russian craft

the Japanese commercial interests
that they have nothing TO fear from

all points.
Reports Of skirmishes between the
