Then the article proceeds to de-
nounce Postum and works into a
fine frenzy, because we have pub
lished facts regarding the effect OF
coffee on some people.
The narrowing tale goes on.
"Where a few years ago every
body drank coffee, several cups
day, now we find in every walk In
life people who imagine they can
not drink 1t. (The underscoring is
ours.) Burly blacksmiths, carpen-
ters, laborers and athletes have dis
continued or cut down the use of
coffee; as there Is not person
who reads this and will not be able
to find the same conditions existing
among his own circle Of acquaint-
ances, Is 1t not we'll for the Brazil
ians to sit up and take notice?"
Isn't it curious these bur
ly" strong men should pick out cof-
fee to Imagine" about? Why not
Imagine" that regular doses Of
whiskey are harmful, or daily slugs
of morphine?
II imagination" makes the caf-
feline in coffee clog the liver, de-
press the heart, and steadily tear
down the nervous system, bringing
on one or more of the dozens of
types of diseases which follow
broken-down nervous systems,
many people don't know 1t.
But 1t remained for the man who
has coffee, morphine or whiskey
to sell, to have the supreme nerve
to say: You only imagine your
disorders. Keep on buying from

Some persons seem to have ex-

tobacco and whiskey for years and
apparently be none the worse, but
the number is small, and when a

some degree Of intelligence by
dropping 1t.

The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1911-05-25

The Washington Water Power Co. has
about so men encamped at Coleman,
using them to put the final touches on
the construction of the line, the clearing
of the right-of-way and the most of them
in constructing the wagon road that is to
run along beside the power line. This
is quite an undertaking in places. as the
line runs straight across the country
without taking into account bitches,
hills or benches. Particularly is this
the case about a mile and half north
of Spirit Lake, where the line dips from
the bench. upon which the town is stu
ated, to the one below it. At this place
the hill is almost straight down for
nearly 100 feet. and to construct wagon
road up it 30 that load of any great
weight can be hauled is something of an
undertaking. 1t is the purpose to bring
the road up on grade not to exceed IL
per cent, and to do this it is necessary
to run the road slant up part OF the dis
tance, then turn and come back. gradu-
ally working to the top with a road,
that. from little distance will look like
an enormous corkscrew on the sidebill.

Great Northern to Loosen Up

1t is reported on good authority that
the Great Northern Railroad will shortly
resume work on Improvements that were
discontinued when business conditions
commenced to tighten up. Among the
construction works that were temporar-
lily abandoned was double tracking near
the summit OF the Rockies, where Grant
Smith & Co. had large contracts. The
gravel and sand for concrete work on
this double tracking were secured from
the Newport pits.
Some time next month the work OF
laying heavier steel in the vicinity of
Naples will be started. A stretch of
about 15 miles was left undone when the
remainder of the division was relaid two
years ago. To secure the gravel for this
work steam shovel crew will be placed
at work in the Newport gravel pit, and
gravel will also be secured here for re-
pair work at other places along the d.
vision.
