MORE THAN EVER
increased Capacity for Mental Labor
Since Leaving on Coffee.

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day
after day, have found better capaci-
ty and greater endurance by using
Postum instead of ordinary coffee. An
Illinois woman writes:
Il had drank coffee fcr about twen-
ty years, and finally had what the
doctor called coffee heart / was
nervous and extremely respondent:
had little mental or physical strength
left, had kidney trouble and constips
ton.
"The first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee to Postum
was the natural action of the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
'Then became less despondent,
and the desire to be active ugain
showed proof of renewed physical and
mental strength.
Il am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. ! formerly
did mental work and had to give it up
on account of coffee, but since using
Postum / am, doing hard mental labor
with less fatigue than ever before"

JOHN A. DIX.

Although he ran considerably
ahead Of his ticket. Dix managed to
carry his associates through with him.
His plurality in New York City is es-
timated at about 100000 divided as
follows among the five boroughs, all
of which he carried: Manhattan and
the Bronx $1,000; Brooklyn $4,000;
Queens 10000; Richmond 5000.
If the Republicans could have come
down to the Bronx with anything like
a normal plurality Henry A. Stimson
would have been elected easily. Gov
ernor Hughes two years ago brought
to the New York City line a plurality
of over $4,000. Stimsons plurality
north of the Bronx is estimated at
about $4,000.
The Republicans lost three con-
gressmen in New York City and for a
while it looked as though Francis
Burton Harrison would be defeated.
He maaged to pull through, however.
Herbert Parsons was defeated in the
Thirteenth district by former Con-
gressman jefferson M. Levy. Henry
