vow COFFEE TOPERS NOW
HIT BY RAISE IN PRICES!

Coffee topers, who have con-
graduated themselves upon the fact
that the high cost of living has not
seriously endangered their break
fast beverage so far, will soon be
brought to realize that the trusts
have not forgotten them. Coffee
has gone up in price pretty steadily
all month among the retailers, who
did not have large supply on hand.
The coffee trust, or, in other words,
the Arbuckles and the Brazilian
government, have concluded that 1t
might be just as well to cut down
the regular supply and incidentally
reap the resulting financial harvest.
Coffee has gone up 5 cents a
pound in the last month";" said the
head of the coffee department at
Greenough's, land it will continue
to go up all winter"
There was only 5000 bags of
Java exported last year." said the
Table Supply man, land the old
country got most of that. Mexican
coffee is a poor grade, and South
America practically has the market
in it's own hands,"
1t seems to be a matter of the
supply on hand whether the price
will be raised among the retailers
or not.
At any rate, this years crop of
corn is the largest for some years,
and as yet we have not heard of
bean or barley shortage, SO that
substitutes will not be lacking in
quantity If they do lack in quality.
Buy your first package of cereal
coffee today There's nothing like
cultivating taste for things you
don't like. 1t builds character, and
the cereal coffee makes red blood,
so they say.

path of the great forest fires that
have swept this region, inflicting
great loss Of life and tremendous
damage to property.
Hundreds of men from the re-
mains of villages and from fire
scorched towns are at work under
the rifles of the national guard
burning the carcasses of cattle and
other live stock killed in the whirl-
wind of flame. The stencil arising
from the decaying and charred
bodies is terrible and the volunteer
and compulsory sanitary corps are
working night and day to prevent
the contamination of streams and
the spread of a great epidemic. The
water at Beaudette and Spooner al
ready is contaminated but condi-
lions at Warroad have improved.
Governor Eberhardt ordered the
surgeons of the national guard to-
day to take command of and super
wise the work of sanitation. Militia
men and citizens under the direc-
ton of General Wood, are distrib-
uting supplies while relief corps
are attending to the injured. Gen,

troops to preserve order and to as

JOE CHARLTON
IS BACK

Joe Charlton, "Old Joe," as the
boys call him, is again back at a
desk in the water office in the
basement of the city hall, from
which he has been absent for over
a year because of ill health. Joe
has been wit hthe water office most
of the time for the last Is or 20
years. until his health failed. He
has given the best years of his life
to the public service, and when i'll
mes sovertook him he found that
public was inclined to forget what
he had done for it.
Joe Charlton is again about
whole, and his figure in the water
office is like seeing a priced piece
of furniture back in it's accustomed
place.

FORMER FUNCTION OF THE
CORONER.

Half the people killed by falling into
the water are not drowned In the or
binary sense of the term. They die
OF shock
This statement was made by Sir
Lauder Brunton. the well-known
physician. who appeared as a witness
before the British Departmental Com
mittee. Inquiry into the law and prac-
tice relating to coronerS inquests,
whose interim report was issued this
week
Shock was also the cause, he said,
of nearly all the deaths under anes-
ttheics. Asphyxia due to a spasm
of the larynX by drop of blood, was
also frequent cause of death in such
circumstances
He himself was very nearly drown
ed in a swimming bath because a sin
gle drop of water got into his nose
and caused spasm of the IarynX.
Had such thing occussed when he
had been partially under the influence
of chloroform he would doubtless
never have recovered
Asked his opinion as to whether the
whole subject OF anaStneJcs had been
scientifically exhausted, Sir Lauder
Brunton said he thought there was
still very great room for inquiry,
especially in the relationship of anaes-
thetlcs to surgical shock.
Some interesting details as TO the
origin OF the corOneT's office were
given by j. Brooks Little
In early times the coroner was a
revenue officer OF the crown, and his
business was to find out the crimis
nails. eXtort their confessions and con-
fiscate their goods to the crown.
