HEART RIGHT.
When He Quit Coffee.

Life Insurance Companies will not
insure man suffering from heart
trouble.
The reason is obvious
This is a serious matter to the husr
band or father who is solicitous for
the future of his dear ones. Often
the heart trouble is caused by an un-
expected thing aud can be corrected ID
taken in time and properly treated. A
man In Colorado writes:
Il was a great coffee drinker for
many years, and was not aware Of the
injurious effects of the habit tf1 I
became a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, Indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made
me wretched1y miserable myself and
nuisance to those who witnessed my
sufferings.
II continued to drink coffee how
ever, not suspecting that 1t was the
cause Of my ill-health, till on applying
for life insurance was rejected on &C
count Of the trouble with my heart.
Then became alarmed. I found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
:.
I quit it altogether and having been
attracted by the advertisements of
Postum began it's use.
.sThe change in my condition was re-
markahle. All my ailments vanished
My digestion was completely restored.
my nervousness disappeared, and
most important Of all, my heart stead

second examination was accepted by
| the Life Insurance Co. Quitting coffee
and using Postum worked the change. "

Racine Water "Fishy."

Racine-While Racine residents
have no particular aversion to fish
in their proper place, they object to
having their drinking water highly
favored with that lake product. For
that reason supplies have been for
warded to the state chemist, as the
present supply from Lake Michigan is
said to be undrinkable.

CITY OF MEXICO
Is THREATENED
Gen. Jose Vera Sends UItin7atum to
Madero-Commands 1000
Rebels.

Mexico City.-Francisco |. Madero
has received an ultimatum from
Gen. Jose Vera, at the head of
1000 rebel soldiers, the flower OF the
insurrectos' army that if the military
instructors army that if the military
changed within twenty-four hours, he
will begin an attack on Mexico City.
Madero's agents here have sent
back word to Vera parleying for time.
Vera is reported to be bandit like
Zapala, but has a strong force Of
the best, most daring of all Madero's
men. He cannot take this city but
might begin a hot battle on the out
skirts.
Madero named Emilio Sobrino to
command all the forces in the state
of Mexico. Now Vera has risen
against Sobrino.
Vera moved his entire force to
Tla!nepantla, a suburb eight miles
from the heart of this city, last night
and sent a second demand that the
government change Bias Sobrino as
chief of this military zone, or he
would attack the city tonight.
The army here is held close in bar
racks with field and rapid fire guns
loaded at the corners of the bar
racks. Riflemen are stationed on the
cathedral towers and double patrols
have been established in the streets.
Secret messages were sent by the
minister of war to General Miranda,
commanding the rebel army at
Curenavaca An officer of the army
declares the messages were calls for
aid.

SECRETARY KNOCKS
SKIRTS CLEARED
Lays Scandals in Department to
Predecessors.
REsENTS PERJURY CHARGE
Cabinet Officer Declares Payment of
$4,000 to Young Hale Was Con-
tracted for by EIihu
Root

Washington.-That the scandals
that have turned up in the state de-
partment cannot properly be laid at
his door, Secretary Knox made clear
to the Hamlin committee of the
house, and demonstrated that they be-
long to past administrations.
He explained the $4,000 payment to
young Mr. Hale, which Elihu Root con-
tracted for, and the affair of the Ro-
senthal portrait was traced to the ad-
ministration of John Hay.
At the same time Secretary Knox
nation that perjury had been commit
ted by some of the present clerical
force of the state department. The
committee has not succeeded in solv-
ing the riddle in connection with pay
ments made to Albert Rosenthal for
the Day portrait and the recovery of
the voucher for that payment.
Secretary Knox gave the committee
the original voucher and the explana-
tory memoranda attached to it. Ac-
Ho1J lh5 lAC AclICI w cO a AOSNAPS
from Rosenthal which the latter has
no recollection of giving. There was
a letter from Consul General w. H.
Michael, former chief clerk Of the de-
partment, written In answer to Secre-
tary Roots request for information, in
which Michael says the balance of
1900 was given in cash to Secretary
John Hay and used by him in connec-
ton with Chinese affairs under Mr..
Rockhill
Don't you think" asked Mr.. Ham
lin of Secretary Knox, that this re-
ceipt was prepared since this hearing
began?"
Are you charging anyone with per-
jury?" remarked Mr.. Knox.
Il am not, but think this suspi-
cious," said Mr.. Hamlin.
IF you can ascertain" retorted
Secretary Knox, that since you got
your letter from Rosenthal that some
one in the department fixed this up
there will be some vacancies"
Il may do Senator Root an injus-
tice," said Davis, but I think he said
the voucher was in two parts. This is
all one document"
Secretary Knox-"I gave 1t to you
in the shape in which received it,
with these papers is letter
signed by Rosenthal referring to a por-
trait of Secretary Day. 1t is signed
March %. 1906, and addressed to no
one Do you know anything about it?'
Nothing" said Secretary Knox.
LAS soon as this affair developed l or
dered a search for the voucher. l
found the affairs Of the department in
an chaotic condition. have reorgan-
lied it and endeavor to install bust
ness methods"

HAVEMEYER GENIUS OF TRUST
Acting President Tells of Forming of
Combine.

SOIlUtICs
Washington.-That the late H. o.
Havemeyer, president of the American
Sugar Refining company, exercised
control over the company while own
ing only 1000 shares of stock, valued
at 100000 out of a total of $50, 100000,
was the statement made before the
house investigating committee by E.
E. Atkins, vice-president and acting
head of the corporation
Coupled with this statement was the
ruling Of the committee that facts re-
garding which former officers of the
company, including Charles R. Heike,
are under indictment are essential to
the present inquiry. Therefore Mr.
Atkins was required to answer ques-
tons as to the American company's
attempt to acquire the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining company at Philadel-
phia.
Mr.. Atkins said that the operations
of the American company were closely
guarded until two years ago when
the New England stockholders com
bined and obtained control. 1t was
then that the small size of Mr.. Have
meyers holdings was discovered and
proved a great surprise according to
Mr. Atkins

AS TOLD BY THE DRUMMER
Many and Varied Are the Experiences
of Travelling knights of the
Road"

| bought a ticket last summer or
running out of New York, where the
fat was NO whole stateroom to any
one passenger" and finding a suitcase
already on the lower berth | placed
my own obligingly in the upper. When
l turned in that night my companion
was still absent, but along toward
morning, when | finally awoke, there
was bloody tackknife on the floor
and the window was open. Just what
had happened we never found out
told my tale to the purser and gave
him the Exhibits, but who my state
room companion was, except for the
name on the boats register, | have
never known, nor do l know what be-
came of him.
In a Connecticut town one night 1
met stranger in the hotel lavatory.
What have you lost. my friends" 1
asked, as | saw him searching for
something.
@'I'm looking for the house tooth
BRUSH he answered without hest
and comb, but where the - is the
toothbrush"
One day | was busy with a Gus
toner right up to train time, and
asked an enterprising bell boy to run
up to my room and pack up my be-
longings Put in everything in the
room!" | called after him cautiously.
When l opened my bag in another
town / found he had obeyed me. The
Bible belonging to the hotel was rolled
up in my pajamas.
One night | left call to be awak-
ened at seven the next morning. 1t
was the only train leaving in the fore
noon. and | simply had to take it. OF
course | ordered breakfast and | was
down on the minute. When l reached
the dining room another drummer was
just finishing my breakfast, and there
was not a minute in which to cook an
other.
Once l left my grip in parcel room
and got a lady's by mistake. OF all
the Paris lingerie | ever saw! But |
was able to swap for my own before
she became aware of the error.
In the prohibition state of Vermont
| have had some amusing expert
ences. Stopping at hotel for din
ner. | asked for some vichy. They
did not have it, so | changed it for
ginger ale or apollinaris.
Nothing doing in soft drinks, boss.
said the waiter placidly. But if you
want beer or whisky | think can
fix it,"
In another prohibition hotel | asked
quietly for whisky. 1t was served in
place of tea, and | drank it from a
teacup.
