THE acOFFEE HEART.
It is as Dangerous as the Tobacco or
 Whiskey Heart.

Coffee heart" is common to many coffee users and is liable to send the owner to his or her long home If the drug is persisted in. You can run thirty or forty yards and find out if your heart Is troubled. A lady who was once a victim of the coffee heart" writes from oregon:
 T have been a habitual user of cof- fee all my life and have suffered very much in recent years from ailments which I became satisfied were directly due to the poison in the beverage, such as torpid liver and indigestion, which in turn made my complexion blotchy and muddy.
 Then my heart became affected. It would beat most rapidly just after drank my coffee, and go below normal as the coffee effect wore off. Some times my pulse would so as high as 137 beats to the minute. My family were greatly alarmed at my condition and at last mother persuaded me to begin the use of Postum Food Coffee.
 T gave up the old coffee entirely and absolutely. and made Postum my sole table beverage. This was six months ago. and all my ills, the indigestion, in- active liver, and rickety heart action, have passed away. and my complexion has become clear and natural. The improvement set in very soon after l made the ichange. just as the coffee poison had time to work out of my system.
 My husband has also been greatly benefited by the use of Postum, and we nnd that simple breakfast with Pos tum. is as satisfying and more strength entng than the old heavier meal we used to have with the other kind of coffee. Name given by Postunl Go, Battle Creek, Mich.

Roof Burned And Negroes Believes It
 Was Of Ineendiary origin.
 A fire at 7:15 o'clock last night de- stroyed the roof of q one story frame house at 109 Swayne school grounds, occupied by Irene Thomas. a negress, and owned by W. F. Crockett.
 The woman succeeded in saving nearly all of her furniture, and her loss will be only about $50. She carried no insurance. The damage to the house is estimated at approximately $500. The owner carried sufficient in- surance.
 Irene Thomas believes that an in- cendiary set fire to her house. She was sick and in bed when friends in- formed her that the building was on fire. Rushing from her room and out of the front door she saw blaze roar ing from the kitchen roof. The fire department was called few seconds later and upon the arrival of the fire. men they succeeded in reducing the loss to a minimum.
 The occupant of the house says that the fire had it's origin in the coal house which is underneath her kitchen. She says that she had not built a fire in the kitchen in nearly forty eight hours and that there was no possible way for the house to nave caught fire where it did unless some incendiary had done the work.
 Irene Thomas, after the fire, re- moved her furniture to the houses of friends

 Washington, Dec. 7-Reduction of the American naval force in Dominican waters from a squadron of protected cruisers to a mosquito fleet of gum boats has been determined upon by the President. with whom MT. Bacon, the Assistant Secretary of State, had con- ference on the subject today.
 With the assembling of Congress it is thought the responsibility of this government for the conditions there is to large extent transrerred from the State Department to the capital and should the situation in the island again become acute, it will be for Congress to say whether or not this government shall permit a return to the chaotic conditions that prevailed prior to the naval pretectorate which has been maintained there since the spring.
 In accordance with new policy, Rear Admiral Royal Bradford. commanding the fifth divison of the third squadron of the North Atlantic fleet, will be ordered north. His squadron will be relieved in Dominican waters by q squadron consisting or the cruiser Dixie, flagship, and the gunboats Yan- kee, Dubuque, Paducah, Nashville and Scorpion. The Dixie will carry & guard of seven hundred marines.

 The announcement yesterday of the death of Mrs. Van Hill!ard Spalding in New York city came as q great snocH to her friends in Atlanta, many or them not knowing of her last illness. Mrs' Spalding had been in i'll health TOT over a year, but after trip abroad last spring was temporarily improved. Tn June she went to her summer hoihe at the Hot Springs, Virginia, ana con tinued to improve there, unti sep tember, when she had second attack of appendicitis, from which she had hot fully recovered when two weeks ago the third attack manifested itseli' She died at the residence of Mrs. E.

 This famous old meIodrama Is usu- ally put on with special regard to scenic effects and on the scenic effects the success of the drama hangs. The Click Company, by which 1t was pre- scented, had absolutely no scenic eff fleets. and some of the presenting ac- tors were decidedly bad.
