OLD SURGEON
Found Coffee Caused Hands to
TrembIe.

The surgeons duties require clear
judgment and steady hand. A slip
or an unnecessary incision may do IT.
reparable damage to the patient.
When he found that coffee drinking
caused his hands to tremble, an Ills.
surgeon conscientiously gave it up and
this is his story.
For years l was coffee drinker
until my nervous system was nearly
broken down, my hands trembled so
could hardly write, and insomnia tor
tured me at night.
Besides, how could I safely per-
form operations with unsteady hands,
using knives and instruments of pre-
cision? When l saw plainly the bad
effects of coffee, 1 decided to stop it,
and three years ago 1 prepared some
Postum, of which I had received a
sample.
"The first cupful surprised me. It
was mild, soothing, delicious. At this
time l gave some Postum to friend
who was in a similar condition to
mine, from the use Of coffee.
"A few days after, l met him and
he was full of praise for Postum, de-
claring he would never return to cof-
fee but stick to Postum. We then or.
dered full supply and within short
time my nervousness and consequent
trembling, as we'll as insomnia, disap-
peared, blood circulation became nor.
NAL, no dizziness nor heat flashes.
MY friend became Postum en-
thusiast his whole family using it ex-
clusively.
ut would be the fault of the one
who brewed the Postum, if it did not
taste good when served
THE best food may be spoiled if
not properly made. Postum should be
boiled according to directions on the
pkg. Then it is all right, anyone can
rely on it. 1t ought to become the
national drink" There's a Reason"

Hoo Cholera.

The greatest drawback to the hog
industry which breeders in this coun-
try have to contend with is what is
known as hog cholera" and Swine
plague"
Hog cholera is highly contagious
disease and unless checked is liable
to carry off a great number of hogs in
very short time.
Mr.. A. P. Williams, of Burnetts
Creek, Ind, tells of an experience
which he had with some hogs that
had the cholera. Give years ago."
says Mr. Williams, 81 was in the en-
ploy of Mr.. J. D. Richardson, Lafay-
cite, Ind, as his barn foreman. Some
fine hogs that I was feeding took the
cholera. l gave them Sloan's Lini-
ment and did not lose hog. Some
were so bad they would not drink
sweet milk and l was compelled to
drench them. l have tried it at every
opportunity since and always find it

ment in those lazy driftinSs about the
hills than three mortals ever knew be-
fore. Occasionally, in early summer,
we took basket along and butcher
knife and cut a mess of greens,
dandelions and "sour-dock," thus pre-
tending that we had really started out
with some fixed purpose.
In the spring and early summer we
could go along the roads in several
directions. Up and down hill, and
along some of the sleeper banks the
wild roses bloomed and violets gleam-
ed. Daisies grew by the wayside, and
the clover bloom was everywhere.
One road turned quarter of mile
away and led to a small creek, which
was quite heavily timbered with oak,
ash, elm, Eastwood, hickory and other
trees, it's bold and rocky ravines
fringed in spots with hard naples,
which held even in their summer
greenery the hint of October ORR
fiammes.
These rambles were never the same,
and never grew monotonous. AL
ways in the country there is differ
ent sky each day, and the cloud effects
and variations of sun and shade among
the trees and on the grass made these
wanderings like a stroll through some
vast gallery of immortal paintings
Recollect, we never took book along
Often we took a small camera and
photographed the silly sheep or per
haps a Illuminating COW, and always
carried rifle along to bore a hole
through some predatory crow, or pick
young fox-squirrel out of some
crotch in an oak tree, thereafter tt
grace the family frying-pan. In the

Money Coming Fast.

Never a day passes now but that the

from a few hundred to a thousand or
more dollars from the various insur-

of the money from that source goes

Fund Still Increasing.

A total of $1S,S09.65 was paid into
tae treasury of the general revenue
fund Monday, thereby swelling that
fund from $4,000, which is possessed
Saturday night, to s66,S09. The money
paid in came from two sources, in
surance tax and liquor license. The
largest amount was paid into the treas
ury by Sebastian cGlnty, which
brought in the sum of S15,500 derived
from liquor licenses. A total of S.
309,65 was paid into the treasury by
insurance companies for taxes. Tenn
porarily at least the general revenue
fund is safe. Still more money is
due from various counties for liquor
license and various insurance COM
panies. At that, however, the pros
porous condition of the fund is not
expected to be long-lived, as it's ex-
penses are unusually heavy.

Decent Pay at Last.

BY the agreement yesterday re-
ported from conference, Congress
has practically made sure a sub
stantial advance in the pay of the
army. This is the most practical
step toward making the service
properly attractive which the Gov
eminent could take. To the lay
Judgment, the effect cannot fail TO
be marked and lasting.
Not all that the Senate provided
was accepted by the delegates from
the House. But the scale is yet
greatly improved. Enlisted men
are to receive a general advance Of
30 per cent. Cadets at West Point
are granted 500, making their pay
5000 a year. Second heutenants are
raised from S1,4OO TO $1,7OO; cap
tains from $500 70 $4,000. All
other grades from first lieutenant
TO major generals are advanced
$500.
The President viii approve this
legislation with distinct personal
qualification. He has known the
need in the army. With Mr.. Root,
Judge Taft, and General Bell, he
has felt keenly the disadvantage TO
the service in sl1imping every man
on the roll. His personal influence
has re-enforced that of the officers
and men and the newspapers. With
him the whole country viii find
deep satisfaction in thinking that
at last the United States pays the
men who wear its uniform some
what according to their deserts.

Yet Il is hard to believe the COM
