COFFEE WAS IT. People Slowly Learn the Facts.

"All my life l have been such a slave to coffee that the very aroma of it was enough to set my nerves quivering. I kept gradually losing my health but I used to say Nonsense, it don't hurt me-
 Slowly l was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my whole nervous force was shattered.
 My heart became weak and uncer- tain in it's action and that frightened me. Finally my physician told me, about year ago, that I must stop drinking coffee or I could never ex- poet to be well again.
 T was in despair, for the very thought of the medicines had tried so many times nauseated me. 1 thought of Postum but could hardly bring myself to give up the coffee.
 Finally concluded that I owed 1t to myself to give Postum a trial. So 1 got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicious, nourishing, rich drink it was, Do you know l found 1t very easy to shift from coffee to Postum and not mind the change at all?
 Almost immediately after I made the change I found myself better, and as the days went by kept on improv- ing. My nerves grew sound and steady, I slept well and felt strong and well-balanced all the time.
 Now l am completely cured, with the old nervousness and sickness all gone. In every way I am well once more."
 It pays to give up the drink that acts on some like poison, for health Is the greatest fortune one can have.

The perishable nature of most of the paper on which modern books are print cd has come up for renewed discussion in Germany, where, we believe, the subject was first taken up. A writer In one of the German papers has now made some suggestions that are prac- ticable and sensible and easily put into execution under a paternalistic government

 Now proceed to relax more muscles, beginning at the feet, legs, thighs, and arms, imagining each in turn a heavy weight bearing down upon the bed; and, lastly, imagine that the eyes arc looking far away to the distant horizon. The attention is so taken up with the relaxing process that thinking soon ceases, and the imagination, instead of running riot

Tit forTat,

Lloyd c. Griscom, in an interview in New York, said of party dissen- sions.
 They are animated by nasty spir- it, tit-for-tat spirit; and they go from bad to worse.
 Its like the case of the engaged couple at the seaside dance. The young man, a little jealous, said cold ly to his fiancee at supper.

Narcotics are, generally speaking, equally bad. To earn sound sleep, in fact, there is only one way, and that is to follow natures system of de- stroying consciousness.

English submarines of about the size the Salmon, which made the coastwise run from Dover to Dundee. distance of SIP miles and the famous performance of the French submarine Papin, which occasion made cruise of 1,200 miles. However this French achievement Is overshadowed by the Salmons cruise because not only the distance of the latter much greater, but it was open performance. whereas the Papin crused along the coast and finally, the French vessel is much larger than the new American record-breaker. the Papfn be- ing of $50 tons displacement, whereas the Salmon is of but 320 tons displacement.
 The Salmon, alike to most of the submarines which have lately been added to the United States navy, is a development of the original Holland type of submarine which first gave the Americans the lead in this class of shipbuilding The Salmon is 135 feet in length by IA feet beam and is a twin-screw boat, being driven the surface by two gasoline engines of 300 horse power each and propelled when submerged by electrical power supplied from storage batteries
 By way of fulfilling her mission of destruction the little vessel has four torpedo tubes equipped to fire the latest type of torpedo-that is, a tor pedo r feet in length and IS inches In diameter having radius of 4000 yards and carrying explosive charge of 200 pounds of guncotton. On her cruise to Bermuda the Salmon carried crew of 21 men, but it demonstrated on this cruise that under actual service conditions such a submarine be operated, in far navi- gation is concerned. by five men-two on the bridge and three in the engine
 The Salmon is capable of speed of 14 knots per hour when running awash or on the surface of the water and 12 knots per hour when running wholly submerged Only three minutes is quired to change from surface running by gaso- line engines to submerged running by electrical power. The vessel has, on trial, dfved to depth of more than 200 feet without any sign of strain or leakage being manifest anywhere on her steel cigar-shaped body. unique feature of the equip ment of an up-to-date submarine such the Salmon, is double periscope whereby, when the vessel is wholly submerged the officers on board can observe all that is going on at the surface of the water. Electrical ranges are pro vided for cooking the meals of those on board and there is a reserve supply of 4,800 cubic feet of air contained in 28 tanks, so that if need be the vessel could be sealed up' tight and remain ,nder the surface of the water for one or two days and nights without those board having any communication with the outside world or coming to the surface for fresh air. On the Salmons Bermuda cruise there were on board, in addition to the officers of the American navy, Cant Arture Cuevas of the Chilean navy, who went for the purpose of reporting to his govern nent on the behavior of the vessel

to the Salmon's recent record breaking cruise from the Atlantic coast to Der muda and return-a deep-sea voyage such as has had no parallel i'll the his tory of underwater craft. The cruise to Bermuda was not only the first cruise by a submarine to foreign port or out of sight of land. but it was the longest virtually continuous run ever attempted by such vessel. The total distance covered aggregated nearly l700 miles and as it happened, the little vessel encountered very rough weather during a considerable part of the trip.
 Not only did this nautical excur- sion establish new record for yes sels of the American navy, but it sur passed all foreign achievements. The best performances previously record ed by American vessels of this type was found in the run of the subma. rine Viper from Cape Lookout to Ann apolis, Md, a distance of about 4S3 knots, and the cruise of a flotilla of submarines from New York to Annap. oils, a distance of 3S5 knots Among the foreign performances of such yes sels there stands out the record of
