OLD SURGEON
Found Coffee Caused Hands to
Tremple.

The surgeons duties require clear
Judgment and a steady hand. A slip
or an unnecessary incision may do ir-
reparable damage to the patient.
When he found that coffee drinking
caused his hands to tremble, an Ills.
surgeon conseientiously gave 1t up and
this is his story.
For years l was a coffee drinker
until my v system was nearly
broken down, my hands trembled SO I
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 ! saw plainly the bad
effects Of coffee, l decided to stop it,
and three years ago ] prepared some
Postum, of which / had received q
sample.
THE first cupful surprised me. IL
was mild, soothing, delicious. At this
time ! gave some Postum to a friend
who was in a similar condition to
mine, from the use Of coffee.
"A lew udyS AFTER, i met MIN anu
he was full of praise for Postum, de-
claring he would never return to cof-
fee but stick to Postum. We then or
dered a full supply and within a short
time my nervousness and consequent
trembling, as well as insomnia, disap-
peared, blood circulation became nor
NAL, no dizziness nor heat flashes.
MY friend became a Postum en-
thusiast, his whole family using 1t *
clusively.
1T would be the fault of the one
who brewed the Postum, IL 1t did not
taste good when served.
THE best food may be spoiled IL
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"

DOES DEATH END cLAlM7
Homesteader Dies Before He Is Nat
uralized and Heir Seeks Land.

Homesteader Dies Before He Is Nat
uralized and Heir Seeks Land.
Can the administrator of an estate
prove up on a homestead started by
the deceased who never had COM
pleted his naturalization?
The official at the government land
office at Rapid City thinks not, but
as it is an entirely new ~queGtion it
will be referred to the general land
Office at Washington for a final de-
cision.
The question came up for the first
time at Deadwood during the probing
of the estate of Edward Dunno OF st,
Onge. Dunno was about to prove up
on his homestead and had made APP
plication for his final papers of nat
uralization when death came. He was
a native Of Ireland, and, it was
thought, left no direct heirs, so the
land office refused to allow the admin
istrator to complete title to the land
in question.
Now, however. it is found that a
brother of the dead man exists and
is preparing to fight the case. He will
make an endeavor to prove up either
through the administrator or by him
self, and whatever way the case turns
out it will be unique in the land Office
annals.

CAR RUNS AWAY 80 MILES.
Vehicle Covers Distance In 90 Min
utes and IL Safely Stopped.

uteS AND 10 Safeiy stopped.
A remarkable run Of more than
thirty miles, not all of which was
down grade, was completed by a par
TALLY loaded runaway freight car on
the Milwaukee line when the car
slowed up on an upgrade at Creston
and was brought to a standstin by
the operator there. The run was all
the more remarkable for the time
consumed, which was ninety minutes,
and the fact that there was no acct
dent.
The car broke away in the Rapid
City yards when allowed to stand un-
occupied for a few minutes while 9TH
er cars were being unloaded. 1t hap
car when shunted kept on moving,
gaining speed with each revolution OF
the wheels until it was travelling at
a high rate of speed. Messages OF
warning were sent to all the operat-
ors between Rapid City and the
Cheyenne river, thirty miles away,
but they could do nothing except
clear the track. Through some of the
small towns the car few like a whirl-
wind, with the ~populace staring open
eyed, and on until il struck an up
grade at Creston where Operator H.
C. Troth was able to stop it by plac-
ing small chunks of wood on the
track.
The car even assembled three slight
up grades in its journey.
