FOUND A WAY
To BE Clear Of Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit, and finally his stomach
and kidneys got in such a bad condi-
ton that he was compelled to give up
a good position that he had held for
years. He was too sick to work. His
skin was yellow, and there didn't
seem to be an organ in his body that
was not affected.
Il told him felt sure his sickness
was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion he decided to give 1t up.
1T was a struggle, because Of the
powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try 1t
and then 1t was easy to leave OF
coffee.
His fearful headaches grew less
frequent, his complexion began to
clear. kidneys grew better until at last
he was q new man altogether, as re-
suit Of leaving OF coffee and taking up
Postum. Then I began to drink 1t too.

During the entire contest the trucks were under the scrutiny of the United States Government supply com nnittee, who rode on the trucks ito ob- serve their work in detail, under ad- verse conditions. The White won the army ambulance division, the 1.5oQ- pound class, and the 3,00o-pound class. Three-fourths of the number of trucks entered were in these three classes. that the greatest interest centered in the prize winners in these divisions.
 Fuel economy was the greatest sin gle factor in deciding the winners, a1- though the representatives of the Gov ernment were keenly interested in re- liability. The lowest gasolene con sumption record was made by the White 1,500-pound truck, which used ney. The 3,00e-pound White used 27 5-8 gallons, while the ambulance consumed 26 1-2.

Petitions were gotten up and the contract was given to Theodore W. Austen, which meant the office would remain where 1t is. These were recalled and all thought that the office would be nov ed to the Pooley block. No steps have been taken toward changing the site and now the report comes that it will not be moved. Appearances are that 1t will not. The business men on the various sides of the bridge are Of course anxious to get a decision.

MOTOR TRUCKS MADE POSSIBLE QUICK WORK
 ON BIG RESERVOIR.
m John R. Eustia.l

The completion of the new reservoir for the city of Bridgeport, for the construction of which three years were allowed. in just one-ha1f this time, lG attributed by the contractors to the use of i've large motor trucks. A concrete dam stretching across one end of a valley and forming an arti- ficial lake over three-QuarterS of a mile long was the only construction. It is ninety-two feet high at its high est point, 1850 feet wide and was one and one-half years in building.
 All the cement, crushed stone, ma chinery and supplies for this job were transported by the motor trucks. two of which were five-ton Locomobiles, built at Bridgeport. and the Bridge port Hydraulic Company is auth ority for the statement that with horses the work could not have been completed in a period of three years. and that each truck did as much work in shorter space of time as twelve horses would have done.
 Now that the dam has been built these same trucks have been adapted for carrying hve-ton water pipes. By one side of the truck these. pipes are side of the truck into position for hauling. Another fve-ton pipe is car ried on a trailer behind, making the entire load hauled at one time ten tons. These pipes will be laid the entire distance of seven miles from the reservoir to Bridgeport. It is expected that this new reservoir with pipe line will be in complete operation by December.

PACKARD MOTOR STILL RUNNING: AFTER 800
 HOUR RECORD NOW.

Late reports from the testing 1abo- ratory of the Automobile Club of America, where the Packard ''3S" en- zine has been undergoing a nonstop test for over a week, were to the effect that the motor was still running as smoothly as ever. and that there was every indication that the 300-hour mark will be passed next Friday morning.
 More than unusual interest has been aroused by this tesE, as 1t has given automo bile men their first chance to compare the working of an American built poppet valve type engine with the working of foreign built sleeve valve engine, under similar working conditions.
 Packard men are jubilant over the fact that their motor has broken the former record held in England of 132 hours, and apparently is going to more than double it, and many consider 1t a striking vindication of American de- sign and workmanship. Never be- fore has an automobile engine been subjected to so severe & test under of- f1cia1 observance.
 As has been reported, the motor was placed upon the test Saturday, May 8, at 10:43 D. m. and has been running continuously ever since, with the throttle wide opens and the mag net wired go that the spark is fully advanced. At o'clock Monday morn ing the motor had run 200 hours. The motor is running at 1.200 revolutions minute. No adjustments have been made since the test has been started, with the exception of two new spark plugs, which is permissible un- der the rules governing the test. The motor was not stopped for these ad- justments. When seen yesterday by our representative, the motor was run ming so smoothly that 8 coin could be balanced upon the testing racks
