It is quite significant, the number of

Postum, which is made of clean, hard
wheat.

a lady in Washington, that at times
felt quite alarmed. My husband took
me to specialist to have my heart

"The doctor said he could find no
organic trouble but said my heart was
irritable from something / had been
accustomed to, and asked me to try
and remember what disagreed with
me.

soured on my stomach and caused me
trouble from palpitation of the heart.
So stopped coffee and began to use
Postum. have had no further
trouble since.
"A neighbor of ours, an old man,
was 80 irritable from drinking coffee
that his wife wanted him to drink
Postum. This made him very angry,
but his wife secured some Postum and
made it carefully according to direc-
tons.
HE drank the Postum and did not
know the difference, and is still using
1t to his lasting benefit. He tells his
wife that the coffee is better than it
used to be, so she smiles with him and
keeps peace in the family by serving
Postum instead of coffee"

THIEVES BLOW OPEN
POST OFFICE SAFE At
GRETNA FOURTH TIME
Get Away With Stamps; COttagers
Nearby Hear Explosion;
Work of Professionals

Mount Gretna, Pa, July 25.-For
the fourth time in three years safe
blowers robbed the post office here
early this morning and made good
their escape with about 500 in money
and stamps. Post office authorities in
Lebanon and Harrisburg were notified
and are now working on the case. The
robbers covered up their tracks in
good shape and there appears to be
nothing here which might serve as
clue.
1t was shortly after o'clock when
many of the cottagers were awakened
by an explosion. Few of them ven
tured from their beds to ascertain the
cause. An investigation by some few
shortly after, however, disclosed the
robbery.
The cracksmen, who are believed to
be professionals. hammered the lock
from the safe door and poured nitro
glycerin into the cavity, The eXplo-
sion wrecked the safe, shattered win
davis in the post office and destroyed
many of the lock boxes. A few min
utes later persons residing near the
post Office say they heard a big auto
mobile laundering along the road
which runs by the post office. To-day
other cottagers in the vicinity said
they recalled hearing a machine going
in the direction of the post office a
short time before the explosion.
The Mount eGretna post office is a
one-story building. Entrance was
gained by the robbers through a side
window.

scription in the citys parks MUST be
stopped!"
Mayor John K. Royal issued that
emphatic edict this afternoon follow
ing the hearing of George Eyester,
who was arraigned before the Mayor
by Park Officer George Greenabaum.
Eyester was charged with having been
noisy and boisterous in the park at
Front and Herr streets last night.
Friends who rallied to Eyester's de-
fense complained about what they
considered unnecessarily rough han
ding of the prisoner by the police
man. Mr.. Greenabaum they contend
ed even went so far as to grab Eyes,
ter by the coat collar and to lock his
wrists in chains when the youth re-
sisted arrest. Some who said they
saw the scrap between officer and
prisoner said to-day that they may
urge formal action against Greena-
baum.
Mayor Royal pointed out that COM
plants of insults to women, ETC., by
would-be mashers and other disorderly
characters had not been infrequent
and that these annoyances must be
stopped. He discharged Eyester with
a vigorous reprimand.
