COFFEE IMPORTERS
publish a Book About Coffee.

There has been much discussion as
to Coffee and Postum lately, SO much
in fact that some of the coffee import
ers and roasters have taken to type
to promote the sale of their-wares
and check if possible the rapid growth
of the use of Postum Food Coffee
In the coffee importers book chap
ter is headed Coffee as Medicine
and advocates its use as such.
Here is an admission of the truth,
most important to all Interested
Every physician knows, and every
thoughtful person should know, that
habitual use of any medicine" of the
drug-stimulant type of coffee or whis-
ky quickly causes irritation of the
tissues and organs stimulated and
finally sets up disease in the great
majority of cases if persisted in. 1t
may show in any one of the many
organs of the body and in the great
majority of eases can be directly
traced to coffee in a most unmistak-
able way by leaving on the active ir-
ritant-coffee-and using Postum
Food Coffee for a matter of ten days.
If the result is relief from nervous
trouble, dyspepsia, bowel complaint,
heart failure, weak eyes, or any other
malady set up by a poisoned nervous
system, you have your answer with
the accuracy of a demonstration in
mathematics
There's 2 reason for Postum.

which would be levied on account of
the bond issue, and brought suit to
test the legality of the bonds The dis
trict court of Reno county sustained
the bonds, but the supreme court
knocked them out on the ground that
the Kansas laws do not authorize a
city Of the first or second class to vote
and issue bonds to purchase lands for
right of way, depot grounds and ter
minal facilities to railroad COM
pany whose entire lines is confined
within the corporate limits of such

He came to Kansas in the spring of

out his claim and trusted to the sur
vey that he knew would be made later.
He has made his home on that same
farm ever since and has been actively
engaged in farming except during the
Civil war, and until he was disabled
with rheumatism a few years ago.
Mr.. Reeder has a diary which he be-
gan keeping in 1855, and which con-

porous Never in the history of the

put on the appearance of prosperity.
Emporia people who have always de

to do their odd jobs. Normal board

the same trouble. Emporia merchants
say they are selling more goods to
Normal students this year than any
year before. At the normal office,
there are more calls from people want
ing students to work than ever before
and fewer students who are ready to
respond to these calls.
