A TROUBLE MAKER
Coffee Poison Breeds Variety Of Ills

A California woman who didn't
know for twenty years what kept her
i'll, writes to tell how she won back he's
health by quitting coffee:
Il am "a years DID," she says, have
used coffee all my life. and for 20
years suffered from Indigestion and
insomnia. Life was a burden and a
drag to me all the time, and about
once year my ailments got such hold
upon me that l was regularly sick in
bed for several weeks each time.
Il was reluctant to conclude that
coffee was the cause of my trouble, but
/ am thankful that found out the
truth
Then 1 determined to use Postum
exclusively-for a week at first-for l
doubted my ability to do without cof-
fee for any length Of time. l made
the Postum carefully. as directed. and
before the week expired had my re-
ward in a perceptible increase in
strength and spirits.
Seeing the good that my short ex-
pertinent had accomplished, l resolved
to continue the use Of Postum, cutting
out the coffee entirely. This l did for
nine months, finding, daily, increased
cause for qualification at my steadily
improving health. My Indigestion grad
ually left me, my sleep returned, l
gained &c pounds in weight my color
changed from sallow to a fresh. rosy
hue and life became a blessing.
Then 1 thought l would try coffee
again, and did so for few weeks. The
punishment for deserting my good
friend. Postum, was a return of my old
troubles.
That taught me wisdom, and am
now and shall be all my life hereafter

ing the benefits it brings me-" Name

Disagreement on Direct vote.

Washington.-The conferees Of the
two houses of Congress on the joint
resolution providing for the election OF
senators by direct vote have decided
to report disagreement. The report
will not be made until friends of the
resolution feel sure of the presence in
the Senate of all its supporters.
The disagreement is over the Bris-
tow amendment retaining the super
vision of Congress over senatorial
election. and there will be motion
in the Senate to recede from that pro-
vision. 1t is believed this motion
would carry as only majority vote
would be required. but there is no
no such assurance of the adoption of
the resolution after the elimination of
the Bristow amendment. as two
thirds vote is necessary for its
passage.
