 John Glover, whose name appears in the earliest parish records of Christ's church, Stratford as the first warden of the church of England in Newtown,

the ingredients are all harmless, and

this prescription is often prescribed in
rheumatic Affections with splendid re-

would not be a splendid remedy for
kidney and urinary troubles and back
ache, as it has peculiar action upon
the kidney structure, cleansing these
most important organs and helping
them to sift and filter from the blood

who suffer can make no mistake in

TRANSFORMATIONS
Curious Results When Coffee Drink
Ing Is Abandoned.

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use Of coffee as it is
for whisky or tobacco fiend to break
off, except that the coffee user can quit
coffee and take up Postum without any
feeling of loss of the morning bever-
age, for when Postum Is well boiled
and served with cream, it is really bet
ter in point Of flavor than most of the
coffee served nowadays, and to the
taste Of the connoisseur it is like the
flavor of fine, mild Java.
A great transformation takes place
in the body within ten days or two
weeks after coffee is left off and Pos
tum used, for the reason that the poi
son to the nerves-caffeine-ha been
discontinued and in its place is taken
a liquid food that contains the most
powerful elements of nourshment.

GOT SANTA ANA'S CORK LEG.
Man Who Captured 1t in the Mexican
War Tells How He Did 1t,

w dl 1ellS nO" he Dlu II.
The man who captured Gen Santa
Ana's cork leg, the most interesting relic
of the Mexican war, is yet living He is
Edwin Elvin Elliot, who now lives at
San Rafael, Cal. From Mr.. Elliot
comes the first authentic account of the
capture, says The Mexican Herald.
In the course of his narrative Mr.. Ell
hot describes the scene when the Next,
can batteries were attacked by the.
American troops charging across the
open plain. The Fourth Illinois ad-
vanced rapidly to the Jalapa road, in
which stood the luxurious and gayly
caparsoned coach of Gen. Santa Ana
harnessed and really to leave. This
coach, however, had been rendered I'M
serviceable by the artillery fire, one Of
the mules having been killed The sad
die mule on which an outrlder usually
rode was being cut out of the harness
as the American troops came up. The
latter noticed the MeXicans mounting an
officer upon this mule, but they did not
know until later that this officer was no
less a parsonage than Santa Ana him
self.
Co.'S b and Ii charged down the hill,
and Private Edward Elliot was the first
soldier to reach the carriage. He jumped
inside and secured the cork leg of the
general and passed it out to the soldiers
who followed.
1t was sent to the rear as prize Of
war, and eventually was placed in Me
mortal hall at Springfield, H., where it
is yet on exhibition.
Elliot also found basket of lunch.
consisting mostly of chicken, which had
been put up for the general. The food
was quickly deyoured by the hungry sol
diers. Continuing his search, Elliot
found a bag of gold under the seat. The
coin was kept under guards until an
aid of Gen. Twiggs came up, when it
was turned over to the commander in
chief as prize Of the government. The
sack contained in all $4,000.
Mr.. Eliot's regiment, the Fourth Hi
nois. saw much hard service in the en-
suing month, but the war ended in
September. 1917, and the soldiers We're
mustered out in the following year. The
capture of the leg was productive Of
much merriment at the time, and many
accounts of the incident have been pub
lishcd, but the story of the man who
secured the leg is probably the only au-
fhpntip account
