Chief Brown answered the letter at
length, giving as his opinion, that
prejudice does exist and that 1t Is
due largely to misbehavior on the part
of the evil inclined soldiers, and also
to the fact that soldiers receive sucE
small pay that it seems to the aver
age citizen a man must place low
estimate upon himself who will be con-
tented to work for a pittance OF sl'
per month and found. when he couh
be earning from $50 to SIS per month.
The chief pointed out that though
in time of war the soldier is the nero
of the hour, he loses prestige in times
of peace.

FAMOUS OLD TREE GONE.
Ohio Landmark Attracted Wide At
tention from Botanists.

Richmond, Ind.-The famous old
coffee nut tree that stood on the
farm of C. D. Folhert, near Fort JEFF.
ferson, Ohio, and was the largest tree
of it's variety in the United States,
was blown down by a recent storm.
In its full maturity the tree was
photographed by representatives Of
the Smithsonian institution, Washing
ton, and it's likeness is now to be
found in one of the volumes publish
ed by that institution. 1t attracted
wide attention among botanists, and
many people visited 1t, among them
Prof. w. H. Rush of st. Louis, who
was a great admirer Of the old mann
moth.
The trunk Of the tree was five feet
In diameter, and it had been a land
mark since the coming Of the white
man to Darke county, Ohio. During
the days of trails through the forests
from one fort to another it marked
a divide in the path from G%reenville
to Fort Black, where New Madison
now stands, and the old Eaton road.
It was & prolific bearer of nuts bear
ing its name. For years old resi-
dents used to gather and preserve the
nuts for use, although many contended
the fruit was not intended for
man. The kernels were as large as
acorns n were carried in pods from
six to eight inches long.

OLD CANNON CAN'T BE BROKEN.
Armament of Old Craft Was Made to
Last.

A good story is being told at the
Mare Island navy yard concerning a
San Francisco contractor who bought
all the old obsolete cannon which we're
sold at the local yard some time ago.
The cannon were all of the smooth
bore kind, and in order that they
might be easily handled for shipment
to the city all sorts of schemes we're
tried to endeavor to break them with
dynamite and blasting powder, but
they we're unsuccessful.
An electric drill machine was even
set up at the yards and the cannon
we're drilled full of holes in order to
weaken them for breaking open with
wedges. but this was also %unsuccess-
full. The cannon we're then taken
away and the last heard of them they
were c~orralled in the hills near Point
Richmond, where an effort was being
made to break them open with dyna-
mite again.
The cannon which proved to be so
strong were among the armament Of
the war craft which sailed the seas
in 1912.

Dropped a Valuable Hint About Coffee.

For about eight years." writes a
Mich. woman, 81 suffered from nerv-
ousness-part Of the time down in bed
with nervous prostration.
Sometimes l would get numb and it
would be almost impossible for me to
speak for a spell. At others, 1 would
have severe bilious attacks, and my
heart would 1utter painfully when 1
would walk fast or sweep.
Il have taken enough medicine to
start a small drug store, without any
benefit. One evening our grocer was
asking husband how 1 was and he
urged that 1 quit coffee and use
Postum, so he brought home a pkg.
and I made it according to directions
and we were both delighted with 1t.
$50 we quit coffee altogether and
used only Postum. 1 began to get bet
ter in a months time and look like an
other person, the color came back to
my cheeks, l began to sleep well, my
appetite was good and / commenced
to take on flesh and become interested
in everything about the house.
FINALLY 1 was able to do all my own
work without the least sign of my old
trouble. 1 am so thankful for the little
book, The Road to Wellville,' 1t has
lone me so much good. 1 haven't
taken medicine of any kind for six
months and don't need any.
"A friend of ours who did not like
Postum as she made it, liked mine,
and when she learned to boil it long
enough, hers vas as good as mine.
