Results of Excessive Coffee Drinking

It is remarkable what suffering

hundreds of times in the years past.

of bilious collie, coming on every few

No convict has been guillotined in
Paris for ten years. and the sentences
of those condemned to death have
been commuted to Imprisonment for
life. The reason for this lies in the
fact that the law provides that all
capital executions shall be held in
public, and since the guillotine was
removed from the Place de la Ro-
quette ten years ago. no other place
has been found for it. The residents
in the neighborhood of every place
suggested object to its erection near
them. The authorities were lately put
in quandary when a condemned man
refused to ask for Communication of
his sentence. and declared that they
must put him to death.
