SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid Of "Coffee Habit"

The injurious action Of coffee on the
hearts of many persons is well known
by physicians to be caused by caffeine.
This is the drug found by chemists in
coffee and tea.
A woman suffered long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cof-
fee, as that was tine principal cause Of
the trouble. She writes:
my heart was SO weak it could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table, and it you'd seem that
l would never breathe again.
"The doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness of my heart. He
said must stop 1t. but it seemed
could not give 1t up until was down
in bed with nervous prostration.
For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered Finally husband brought

at the time. Through her varying
moods she had really loved him, and
the thing that had slumbered in her
became the drier fuel for the flame
perhaps too late.
Without him-what then? 1t seemed
that the fatality that had let him es
cape miraculously from the aeroplane
accident, made him chief of staff, and
brought him victory. might well
choose to ring down the curtain Of
destiny for him in the charge that
drove the last foot Of the invader of

chief of staff should not receive con-
gratulations for victory alone.

drawing deeper and longer breaths
that were velvety with the glow Of
sunshine. A fame, the fame that
Lanny had desired. Of many gentle yet
passionate tongues. leaping hither and
thither in glad freedom, was in pos
session of her being. When his figure
appeared out of the darkness the
flame swept her to her feet and to-
ward him. Though he might reject
her he should know that she loved
him: this glad thing. after all the
shame she had endured. she could
confess triumphantly.
But she stopped short under the
whip of conscience. Where was her
courage? Where her sense of duty?
What right had she, who had played
such horrible part, to think Of self?
There were other sweethearts with
lovers alive who might be dead on the
morrow II war continued. The flame
sank to live coal in her secret heart
Another passion possessed her as she
seized Lanstron's hand in both her
own.

war began! Oh. the blessed silence!
