COFFEE DOESN'T HURT ME-"
Tale. That are Told.

II was one Of the kind who wouldn't
believe that coffee was hurting me-
SAYS a New York woman. you Just
couldn't convince me its use was con-
nected with the heart and stomach
trouble I suffered from most all of the
time. My trouble finally got SO bad
had to live on milk and toast almost
entirely for three or four years. Still
loved the coffee and wouldn't believe
it could do such damage.
what I needed was to quit coffee
and take nourishment in such form my
stomach would digest. I had read so
rnuch about Postum, the cereal coffee,
hut never thought it would fit my case
until one day decided to quit coffee
and give it trial and make sure about
it, So l got package and carefully
followed the directions.
"Soon I found I began to get better
and was able to eat carefully selected
foods without the aid Of pepsin or 9TH
er digests, and it was not long before
I was really new woman physic-
ally.
Now I am healthy, hearty and
sound, can eat anything and everything
that comes along and I know this
wonderful change Is all due to my hav-
ing quit coffee and got the big guam
ttty of nourishment needed thru this
delicious Postum in place of the dan
gerous coffee and tea.
MY wonder Is why everyone don't
give up the old coffee and the troubles
that go with 1t and build themselves
up as have done with Postum" Name

From the above table we find that
the company would charge at the low
est s6443 per lamp. while with the
municipal advantages and under our
conditions, we figure the cost per lamp
at s4o.91. We can go still further
without censure and omit the item OF
renewal and figure the cost per lamp
at s34.35 per year. We absolutely
know all expense connected with the
electric light plant In cents, except the
coal, and these figures are supplied by
our superintendent and engineer on
the basis of 500 pounds of coal per
hour for 100 horse power.
Our system does not require the ad-
dition Of one man to operate the light
ing plant. Tt takes four men to run
the pumping station. Deduct this from
our figures and you have net cost
of 5000 per lamp.
I hope have conveyed my ideas to
this convention In q. manner that any
gentleman present can form a base
from which TO calculate the conditions
Of the town or city in which he is In
terested.
Before closing, 1 want to congratu-
late the cities that have mustered up
courage to shake off the grip of COR
porations and give the people the BEN
eft of the profit of this luxury, a well
lighted CITY, and that absolute neces-
sity, a supply of good. pure water.
Mason City has voted for municipal
light. Boone is to be congratulated on
her efforts. She has driven the enter
ing wedge. and is bound to win the
end. Cedar Rapids. one of Iowa's
beautiful cities, has just won her vic
tory and now owns the water works.
Keep on and add the street lighting.
Connect it with the pumping station.
Give your people what they need,
lighting at first cost.
