traffic to Switzerland by this route

build a canal from the Rhine across

WHAT'S THE USE -.

Old King Coffee knocks subjects

no possible doubt Of what did 1t. A
Mich. woman gives her experience:
II used to have liver trouble near

which relieved me only for little
while. Then every once In a while I
would be suddenly doubled up with
an awful agony in my stomach. 1t
seemed as though every time I took
breath l would die. No one could
suffer any more and live.
Finally 1 got down so sick with
catarrh Of the stomach that l could
not turn over In bed, and my stomach
did not digest even milk. The doctor
finally told me that II did not give
up drinking coffee would surely die,
but felt could not give 1t up.

a package of Postum and 1t was made
strictly according to directions. 1t
was the only thing that would stay on

Gradually / began to get better,

due to leaving OF coffee and taking

GRIM RUSSIAN PRISON.
a Living Death the Lot Of the m
mates of the Schluesselburg.


In the middle Of the River Neva.
where it flows out of Lake Ladoga.
there lies q. tiny island, surrounded
on three sides by the turbulent waters
of the river and hemmed in upon the
fourth by the cold and stormy lake.
Upon this island. stands very ancient
fortress enclosed by high walls more
than twenty feet in thickness. This
is the fortress Of Schluesselburg.
Day and night sentinels relieved
every two hours pass around the top
of these walls, keeping vigilant out
look on every hand. No one from
within the fortress. not even the SOL
diers or gendarmes. is allowed to
communicate with the people who
dwell upon the banks of the river.
II the unwary fisherman chances to
drift in his boat too near the walls OF
the fortress, says McClure's. he is
greeted by the shout of sentinel,
aiming his rife:
away! Or I shoot"
Not even the Dead Sea in the des.
erts of Asia is so utterly isolated and
cut of from the living world as Is
this fortress of Schluesselburg, which
lies within forty miles of st. Peters
burg.
They are very ancient, the high
walls of the fortress. In many places
they are cracked from old age, and In
the cracks little trees have taken root
They look sullen and ominously
silent, as IL they hid dark and grue'
some secrets. And In truth In the
whole world there are no other walls
that have witnessed so many trag'
edies as those Of the fortress OF
Schluesselburg.
The regime and the aspect Of the
prison were carefully thought out and
planned, being, as the Ministers visit.
ing the Schluesselburg repeatedly de-
clared to the prisoners, intended t.
demonstrate to them that 1t was des
tined to be their grave. The celli
were constructed In such a manner
as constantly to remind the prisoners
of a tomb. The stone floors were
painted black and the walls darl
cray.
The window panes were opaque, 81
that no ray of sun ever penetrated
within the cells, and no trace of colol
from without could be caught by thu
prisoners. The iron bedstead wal
turned up by day and chained agains
the wall, and only little stool, alst
fastened in its place, allowed thu
prisoners an occasional rest from thu
/ incessant stride backward and for
ward across the floor of the cell.
This pacing back and forth was II
fact the only diversion permitted t
the prisoners. No books were givel
to them except the Bible, which the!
had already learned frorc cover t
cover in the fortress of Saints Pete
and Paul, no work for their hands
no color for their eyes, no sound TO
their ears.
Cut OF from the living world, bur
led in the black stone cells, clothes
in the dingy prison garb, with on
sleeve black, the other yellow, the.
strobe to and fro from corner to cor
ner of their cages. Their food wa
abominable; bread, half raw, made o
rotten flour, and plate of hot waite
in which foated few shreds of mea
