"WHAT A CRIME"
To Talk Against Coffee.

To an ambitious student an aiment that
interferes with school and study Ia very
hard to bear.
bright young girl in Detroit who had
been poisoned by coffee, is now pursuing
her studies in perfect health. Probably
the coffee champions feel she should have
continued to suffer and kept on with the
coffee, but now and then there are self
willed creatures who insist on getting we'll
by leaving off coffee, deserving the "topers
ranks" and joining the Postum army.
From early childhood till a year ago
I was in the habit Of drinking three or four
cups OF coffee every day
As grew older. the bad effects began
to show themselves, although l had no
idea that it was coffee that was doing the
mischief. l became very nervous, and
suffered 40 much from severe headaches
that 1 lost much valuable time from my
school and studies. The doctor could
give me no relief--he probably did not
suspect the coffee any more than did.
.One day went to visit a friend and
the coffee they had on their table tasted
30 good that asked what kind it was, and
they told me it was Postum Food Coffee.
MY friend said that her mother had been
a nervous wreck from drinking the old
kind of coffee. but had been restored to
health by quitting 1t and drinking Postum.
The whole family we're enthusiastic about
Postum and advised me to try it.
Al am glad they did; for it has given me
back my health. At first we did not boil
it enough and did not like it, but we soon
learned how to make it, and now we all
prefer it to the old kind. l have discovered
that to stir beaten egg in the warm milk
we use instead of cream gives a most de-
lioious flavor to Postum Food Coffee.
From the first day began to usc Post
um Coffee Il quit the old kind altogether)
my health began to improve. My head
aches ceased on the third day and have
never returned, my nervousness has COM
pletely Disappeared my brain seems in
vigorated and strengthened, and l am
now able to study from 4 to s hours daily,
outside Of school, and feel no bad effects
from It.
my aunt was sick for five Years from
coffee poisoning. 1t was hard work to
get her to give up the beverage, but when
she did and began to use Postum Food
Coffee, she got well almost at once, and

delivered to Miss Mayfeld in the presence
of the defendant. Satteree, and that he
directed her attention to the advantages Of

sentation made concerning Shipbuilding

had ever made any such representations
or had any participation whatever in the
purchase Of the bonds by Mrs. Wood. 1t
was a matter Of knowledge among those

that a sntisfact ory arrangement, would be
arrived at. He said he agreed to the dis
missal Of the case against Herbert L. Sat
terlee because he was satisfied that mis-
take had been made and that Mr.. Satterlee
Gid not advise Mrs. Wood to purchase the

FEAR CHINESE BOYCOTT.
Southern Cotton Men Protest Against Op.
pressiye Features Of Exclusion Law.

WASHINGTON. June l2.-The complaint
OF the leading cotton manufacturers OF the
Southern States and of various export
associations throughout the United States
against the Chinese Exclusion law was
brought to the attention Of President Roose-
welt to-day by delegation Of about twenty
FIVE men. representing all the interests
concerned. The delegation was headed by
John Foord, secretary of the American
Asiatic Association. A printed address
was presented to the President, in which
it was represented that a serious boycott
against American goods in China is threat
ened beca use of the oppressive features Of
the exclusion act.
The visitors told the President that in
suting and humiliating treatment of the
privileged classes Of Chinese by our immi-
grafton officers should cease, and they de-
clared that China has the best Of reasons
for resentng our treatment of her subjects.
They proposed that the unfortunate effects
Of the exclusion law should be neutralized
as far as possible by suitable treaty ar
rangements, but the President. withou
saving so in so many words, rather dis
couraged this view of the matter. He adj
yised the visitors to talk with the Congress
men from their several districts to the end
that relief might he obtained from the
national Legislature
One Of the most forcible passages in the
address to the President was as follows
an the judgment Of this delegation and
the association which it represents the treat
ment accorded by the immigration officers
of this Government to the exempt classes Of
Chinese visiting our country is more oppres-
sive than either the letter or the spirit Of
the law requires. We believe, however,
that the plainest principles of International
Justice demand that tho law itself shall be
made more liberal. either by amendment or
by the negotiation Of new treaty or by
both.
