Captain Abran Jones, of 174 f. 36th.,

ing coffee story, and says he can be
publicly quoted:
Il drank coffee all my life" he says,
"and took no harm, l thought. till
about 10 years ago when variety of
ailments attacked me one after the
other
First came a disordered stomach.
followed by palptation of the heart
which was very severe. some attacks
lasting four or five hours at a time.
Then my bowels got out of order. and
l suffered from chronic constipation.
This ran on for some years
Finally l quit the drugs and
struggled along the best way | could
taking the advice of friends but never
getting any better. At last I was taken
bed and the doctor told my family l
could not recover.
While lay in this condition a friend
suggested that l quit drinking the old
kind of coffee and try Postum Food
COffee-to see what it would do for ME
He said Postum had pulled him
through when he was similarly afflic-
ted
Il took his advice, quit coffee and
drank Postum. and in two months
time was in good health. ! was Sc
elated at the result that told my doc
tor 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, bu;
that 1t was due to good 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
L could now look forward to good
health for some time to come and that
L had better resume coffee drinking. in
moderation. and thus save my family
the trouble of preparing an extra table
beverage every day.
L took the doctors advice. stopped
the Postum and began drinking coffee
again. The result was that all nv old
troubles came trooping back, and l was
soon once more seriously ill., Then
became alarmed. and swore off coffee
for good and all. and resumed the use
OF Postum. and got well again
My health is now as good as it ever
was. My dyspepcia is gone. / never
have heart palpitation any more. my
bowels are in good working order. and
all the little ills that go with the bic
ones have disappeared.

There's a reason.

Timirazeff Resigns From
Whites Cabinet
Takes Brunt Of Premjef's
Trouble with DuTnoyO.
Linevltch and KaropaIkia's Recall Virtually
Dismissal in Disgrace.

ST. Petersburg Feb. 19.-The Witte
cabinet is about TO lose another Liber-
al member. NJ. TimiriaZefr, the com
merce minister and leader of the pro-
sressive wing of the Liberal party. He
is announced To have handed in his
resignation but the cause of his doing
so is not stated. II is considered in
some quarters that he has been sacri-
feed in order TO celebrate the formal
reconciliation of Premier Witte and In
terror Minister Durnovo. NJ. Timiria-
Zctf is charged with inspiring press ut
terances designed to place the respon-
sibility for the repressive measures on
NJ. DurnoVo.
The press generally regards the re-
tirement of Gen Linevitch, commander
in-chief of the Manchurian armies,
who is succeeded by Gen. Grodekoff
and the recall of Gen. Kuropatkin,
commander Of the first Manchurian
army and Gen. Batianeff. commander
of the third Manchurian army, as being
dismissals in disgrace on account of
the recent troubles among the troops.
The mild sentences imposed by the
court martial at Sebastopol on the mu-
tineers of the KneiZ Potemkine are eX-
planned by the fact that the accused
were mainly sailors who voluntarily
surrendered at Kurotenji, Roumania.
The accusations specified that they
participated in the mutiny only under
threat of death by the real mutineers,
who We're in Roumania and beyond the
reach of Russian justice. The sailors
were condemned to short terms of inn
prisonment or acquitted. The most Sc
we're punishment was awarded to the
six active mutineers whose boat was
fired on and captured ut Theodisa. one
being condemned to Is years and the
other to shorter terms of hard labor.
Twenty-Five men were acquitted.
