CHICKEN SEASON over
Police Say Complaints of Neighbors
Poultry Diminishing.

The number of complaints received
every DAY at the police station due
to the fact that the neighbors'' allow
their chickens to run at large, are di-
minisning.
During the summer this problem
causes more trouble for the cops than
almost any other.
Says Jailer Frank PARCELS: Nearly
all the trouble comes from the fact
that the little chickens crawl through
the fence and muSS up some neigh
boris garden. Then the police are
called. Now the chickens are getting
too big to escape from pens. Then the
people keep their chickens closer pen
ned in cool or cold weather.
For all of which We are duly
thankful"

COFFEE A NARCOTIC
 AND DOPE WITH OPIUM
Well known medical writer declares coffee, like opium, holds victims
 in pitiless grasp.

"I would like to make everyone thoroughly understand that coffee is a narcotic-a very strong narcotic, too," says Dr. C. S. Carr in a com munication to the Ohio State Journal
 There is no drug in the pharma- copeia that has more powerful eff feet upon the brain centres than cof- fee. Coffee is a dope and narcotic almost equal to opium. To be sure, it does not produce at once the men, tai disaster that opium does. Slowly but surely coffee bets control of its victim and holds him in it's grasp, a pitiful, helpless victim.'
 Note-The food-drink, Instant Pos tum, while much resembling the higher grades of Java coffee in flavor and appearance, is absolutely free from the coffee drugs, caffeine and tannin, or any other harmful in- gredient. Pure, wllolesbpe, harm- less, convenient, economical. this de- Iicious hot beverage is rapidly taking the place of coffee in homes where health is prime desideratum.

London, May 1S.-Twenty bombs
were dropped, injuring three persons
but doing slight property damage, in
a midnight raid along the English
coast by two Zeppelins. The bombs
were dropped at Ramsgate.
The dirigibles passed over Margate

The Zeppelin that attacked Rams

sped in over Margate, but did not
open its bombardment until it reach

One bomb crashed through the roof
of hotel In Ramsgate. Three guests
were injured and the building partly
destroyed by fire. Another bomb
partly wrecked a shop on Albion hill
and two others exploded harmlessly
in the city park.
