BUILT A MONUMENT
Tho Best Sort in the World.

"A monument built by and from
Postum" is the way an Illinois man
describes himself. He says:
For years I was a coffee drinker
until at last became a terrible suf-
ferer from dyspepsia. constipation,
headaches and Indigestion.
THE different kindS OF medicine l
tried did not cure me, and finally some
one told me to leave OF coffee and
take up Postum. I was fortunate In
having the Postum made strictly &C.
cording to directions on the pkg, SO
that from the start liked it.
Gradually my condition changed.
The old troubles disappeared and I
became good and 1 could digest food.
Now l am restored to strength and
health, can sleep sound all night and
awake with fresh and rested body.
II am really a monument built by
Postum, for l was a physical wreck,
distressed in body and mind, and am
now strong, healthy man. l know
exactly what made the change; it was
leaving of coffee and using Postum" !"

$4,000 LOSS BY HAIL
THREE HUNDRED ExcURioNisTs
STALLED TEN HOURS.
Principal Damage Done at Colorado
Springs, Where Churches Are
Chief Sufferers.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Colorado Springs-Damage estimat-
ed at $4,000 was caused here Sunday
when heavy hail storm, sweeping
east from the mountains. paralyzed
street traffic, broke windows and sky
lights and wrecked the street lighting
system of the city. The hail followed
heavy rains throughout the day. So
heavy was the fall that automobile
tops were broken through, street cars
were forced to halt and great plate
glass windows in stores were demol-
ished. Every pane of glass in many
lamp posts were broken into frag-
ments, making a loss to the electric
light company of more than $4,000.
Skylights crashed In from the weight
of the hail. Every greenhouse in the
city was demolished.
All the churches of the city suf-
'ered heavily, valuable stained glass
windows being broken. Hidden Inn,
recently opened by the city in the
Garden of the Gods. was flooded with
water and the furnishings damaged.
At Ramona. just north of here, the
loss is placed at $4,000. Costly sky
lights of colored glass in several sa-
looms were broken through and in one
cafe the downpour broke large mir
ror behind the bar
In many places the hail was more
than six inches deep and the hail
stones were as large as a pigeons
egg. The Ute Pass road between Colo
RADIO Springs and Cripple Creek was
completely washed out in certain Sec
tions by the torrents of water from
the melting hail. Boulders were rolled
along in the flood like chips.
The Wildflower Special train on
the Colorado & Southern, with 300
tourists aboard, was stalled for ten
hours in Ute Pass because of wash

A train on the Cripple Creek Short
Line was reported to have taken
refuge in tunnel until the force OF
