FAMILY OF FIVE
All Drank Coffee From Infancy.

II is a common thing in this coun.
try to see whole families growing up
with nervous systems weakened By
coffee drinking.
That Is because many parents do
not realize that coffee contains drug
-caffeine-which causes the trouble.
There are five children In my fam
lily" writes an Iowa mother. "all OF
whom drank coffee from infancy up to
two years ago.
my husband and had heart trou-
hle and were advised TO quit coffee.
We did so and began to use Postum.
We now are doing without medicine
and are entirely relieved OF heart
trouble.
(Caffeine causes heart trouble when
continually used as in coffee drinking.
"Our eleven-year-old boy had weak
digestion from birth. and yet always
craved. and was given coffee When
we changed TO Postum he liked II
and we gave him all he wanted. He
has been restored TO health by Pos.

Tribute From Bryan.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 25.-The foi-
lowing tribute to former president
Grover Cleveland was written py
w. ]. Bryan. and will appear In next
weeks issue Of his paper.
THE death Of ex-President grover
Cleveland brings TO sudden END the
phenomenal career OF one or the
strongest characters known to the
political world during the present
generation. Like every command
ing figure. he had jealous supporters
and earnest opponents. but those VINO
differed from him were az ready as
his warmest friends to concede 10
him the possession OF elements OF
leadership to an extraordinary de-
gree.
"He was deliberate In action. nrm
In conviction, and ever ready to ac-
cent responsibility for what he did.
Few men have exerted a more posi-
tive influence upon those associated
with them. We are not far enough
from the period in which his WORK
was done to measure accurately his
Mace In history, bur the qualities
which m.de him grca. are part OF
the nations heritage and universal
sorrow Is felt at his death"

UP TO POLICE NOW
Mayor Thoms Requests Them 10
 Enforce AHio Speed law.

Mayor Thoms arrived home yester- day afternoon from Marblehead, Mass, where he has been stopping with his family, and immediately took up with Superintendent Beach of the police department the matter of speed of automobiles on the pub lie streets. His honor gave out the following for publication to-day:
 July 10, 1908. George NJ. Beach, Esq, Superinten-
 dent of Police. City:
 Dear Sir: You will kindly in struct the officers and men of your department to see that the law re- garding speed of automobiles in the town of Waterbury is strictly en- forced.
 If the officers will do their duty in this matter, and the courts will up hold them by the imposing of proper sentences, there is no doubt but that the dangerous rate of speed at which some automobiles move at times through the streets of this city will be diminished. At any rate, l want the police force to take steps to make arrests forthwith in case of any further violation of the law upon this subject.
 Very truly yours,
 W. E. THoMs, Mayor.
 A copy of the above order was for warded to Superintendent Beach and the intention is to see that the in structions contained therein are ob- served to the letter.

 Yesterday afternoon the fire alarm box. No 323, at the corner of West Porter street and Washington avenue was knocked off the pole on which it is accustomed to rest. The shaft of a farmers wagon was the knocker. Deputy Chief Dodds of the fire department and John Mitchell replaced the box last evening.
 It is said that the large tract of land extending from the present ter minus of Charles street almost to Platts Mills has been bought by a company which will proceed to di- vide 1t into building lots. It is ru- mored that fiattering inducements will be made to the New Haven Co 10 have it's rails run that way when it decides to send line to Town Plot.
 Attorney James Nj. Lynch weat to New Haven this morning to appear before the county commissioners and to remonstfate against the granting of license for a saloon in the Mur- phy block at the corner of Bank and North Leonard streets. At at meeting of the Brooklyn Improvement clsty last evening inc members votsl to lave Attorney Lynch go to New lla- ven and to make vigorous obiec- tion against granting a license for another saloon in this section. As theer has been a saloon in the place in question of and on for a number of years, it is thought the commits sioners will grant license to the applicant. The meeting of the so- ciety last evening was we'll attended and in addition to the resolution passed against the saloon, the mem- bers also passed a resolution con- demning the New Haven company for charging excessive fares to Quassa- paug, Cheshide and Naugatuck. In the opinion of the Brooklynites the amount charged for these rides is by far too much. The society is also worried about the Clark street exten- sion and committee was appointed to attend the meeting of the board of works on Tuesday evening to urge the commissioners to hasten this work. now almost at a standstill. Messrs Rasmussen and Upson from Town Plot were on hand and proceed ed to fay the superintendent of streets for neglecting, they said, the work on Town Plot. They claim that the rural delivery service has been effected because of the condition of the streets. They stated that the mayor on his last visit to Brooklyn promised to have this work attended to. The meeting last evening was one of the most enthusiastic that the society has held in some time. The following were present: Messrs De- vine. Lynch. Frederick. Mahon. Up- son. Nichols. McNamara, Malone, Sherlock and Brady.
