FEET OUT.
She Had Curious Habits.

When a person has to keep the feet
out from under cover during the cold
est nights in winter because Of the
heat and prickly sensation, it is time
that coffee, which causes the trouble,
be left off.
There is no end to the nervous con-
ditions that coffee will produce. 1t
shows in one way in one person and
in another way in another. In this
case the lady lived in S. Oak. She
says:
II have had to lie awake half the
night with my feet and limbs out Of
the bed on the coolest nights, and felt
afraid to sleep for fear Of catching
cold. I had been troubled for years
with twitching and jerking of the low
er limbs, and for most Of the time L
have been unable to go to church or to
lectures because Of that awful feeling
that | must keep on the move.
"When it was brought to my atten-
ton that coffee caused so many ner-
vous diseases, concluded to drop cof-
fee and take Postum Food Coffee to
see if my trouble was caused by coffee
drinking.
Il only drank one cup Of coffee for
breakfast but that was enough to DO
the business for me. When l quit 1t
my troubles disappeared in an almost
miraculous way. Now 1 have no more
Of the jerking and twitching and can
sleep with any amount of bedding over
me and sleep all night, in sound, peace
full rest
Postum Food Coffee is absolutely
worth it's weight in gold to me-"

neglecting to comply with the directions
of the two men to close the upper berth

double lower berth. Mr.. Elmorc was
travelling from Green Bay to Milwaukee
and Mr.. Stone from here to Chicago
over the North-W estern road on the
night of August %.
Attorney Fairchild attacked the law
on the grounds that the complaint and
warrant did not state any otIense known
to the law because chapter 226 of the
laws of 1907, upon which the complaint
was based, is unconstitutional and in
violation of sections /, s, 9 of article /

This is the first case brought up I'M
