Coffee frequently produces bilious ness and all of the accompanying dis tress, such as loss of appetite, dyspep- sia, bowel troubles, etc. A lady from Ill, says: q had used coffee many years, and though tock great care in making it, felt its i'll effects very seri- oUsly. It made me bilious and robbed mo of my appetite for breakfast.
 T always had trouble with dyspepsia while I used it. was told by physi- ciens that I had catarrh of the stom- ach, and came to believe there was no help for me. Two years ago I quit the use of coffee and began to use Postum Food Coffee At first I missed the stimulant, although the taste of the feod coffee was delicious.
 ''In few days l forgot all about my coffee, in the satisfaction I derived from Postum, and soon found that my appetite returned, the bilious condition and dyspepsia disappeared, so that now I am proud to say that at the age of seventy-five years I enjoy my food as well as when young and all my dyspeptio symptoms and stomach trcublo have gone.
 'These troubles had been with me for most of my life and it is really re- markable that I am now so perfectly we'll To say that I am grateful does not express 1t, Once in a while find "a person who does not like Postum, bu I always find it is becauseEIt has not been properly prepared. There is bu one way to make 1t exactly according to directions, allowing it to boil ful fifteen minutes, not after it Is placed on the stove, but after the real boiling begins.

HELP PAY EXPENSE.
Connecticut Company Offers Aid in Strengthening Washington Bridge.

Officials of the Connecticut Co. states that at d recent meeting of the joint bridge commission of the counties of Fairfield and New Haven they offered to stand half the expense of the pro- posed strengthening of Washington bridge. The matter stands in abey- aKce and the commissioners will meet again in a few days.
 Engineer Hart says that the expense will be $2,250 and thinks the Washing tor bridge could be made not only safe but durable as well for that amount of money. The Connecticut company feels that while they cannot stand the entire expense it would hardly be justice to ask them to as the majority of the commissioners are said to hold the same view it Is probable that favor able report on the proposition of the railroad will be made soon.
