CAPTAINS STORY.

How He got Out and Stays Out Of
Trouble.
Captain Abran Jones, of ia E. Seth
ST.. Los Angeles. Cal, tells an inter
esting story, and says he can be pub
licly quoted:
Il drank coffee all my life" he says,
"and to no harm. l thought, till
about 10 years ago when variety of
ailments attacked ME one after tn
other.
First came a disOrdered stomach,
followed by palpitatiOn of the heart
which was very severe, some attacks
lasting 4 or hours at a time. Then
my bowels got out of order. and
suffered from chronic constipation.
This ran on for some years.
Finally / quit the drugs and strug-
gled along the best way could, TAX
ing the advice of friends but never
getting any better At last l was
taken so seriously sick that l had to
go to bed and the doctor told my
family l could not recover.
While I lay in this condition a
friend suggested that ! quit drinking
the old kind of coffee and try Postum
Food COffee-tO see what it would do
for me. He saio' Postum had pulled
him through when he was similarly al
fiicted.
Il took his advice, quit coffee and
drank Postum. and in months time
was in good health. I was so elated
at the result that | told my doctor
about it. He wasn't very well posted
on facts at that time and said that he
did not believe that leaving off coffee
and using Postum had anything to do
with my improved health but that it
was due to gOol medicine and good
advice from the family doctor; that
my sickness had worked out of my
system the diseased conditions that
had been developing for several years.
that I could now look forward TO
good health for some time 10 come,
and that | had better resume coffee
drinking in moderation and thus save
my family the trouble of preparing an
extra beverage every day.
Il took the cOctor's advice. stopped
the Postum and began drinking cot
fee again. The result was that all
my old troubles came trOOping back,
and l was soon once more seriously
ILL., Then l became alarmed, and
swoTe of coffee for good and all, and
resumed the use of Postum, and got
well again.
MY health is now as good as Il
ever was. Ny dyspepsia IS gone Il
never have heart palpitation any more
my bowels are in good working order,
and all thu little ills that go with the
big ones have disappeared.
1T is now years since l quit cot
fee and began to Use Postum ana in
all that time | have not paid one cent
for medicine"
There's a reason.

Cannot COnfiScate.

The st. Joseph controversy
over the Sunday closing propo-
sition seems to have settled the
fact that stocks cannot be seiz-
ed or conhscated for violation
of the law, and thai the gam
bling contiscation law mas been
held unconstitutional. L, q.
Gabbert, former prosecuting
attorney of Buchanan county,
says:
There is absolutely no legal
authority for coufscation. l
went over all the laws pertain
ing to seizure and con6scation
of property when | was looking
up the gambling cases awhile
ago, and l find there is only one
statute that permits such a
thing, and that pertains only to
gamoling paraphernalia, and
even this law has been held
void by the state supreme court.
The law in question is sections
2207-10 of the Revised Statute
of 1899.

writes of hens:
THE hen is the female sex of
the rooster. She is very useful
when you want eggs, which are
sometimes forty cents a dozen
and are unwholesome if eaten
copiously when they are hard
boiled. The hen frequents
barns and other agricultural
places and is always hungry ex,
cept when she is setting, at
which time she becomes much
irritated and will inllict severe
injuries upon you if you attempt
to caress her. Once my Uncle
