One Reason
for Nervous
Disorders

VOUR doctor can tell you that
= nervous disorders are very COM
mon among Americans. One reason
for this is found in the fact that they
are great coffee drinkers.
Coffee contains caffeine, a drug,
prescribed by doctors as an emergency
stinulant for the heart and nervous
system. 1t has tendency to increase
blood pressure, develop heart irreg-
ularities and cause digestive dis
t1rbances.
If you feel that coffee is not good
for you, serve Postum as your meal
time drink.
Postum is a pure cereal beverage
that refreshes and satisfies. 1t is alb
solutely free from caffeine or any
other irritating drug.
Try cup of Postum with your
dinner or supper tonight. Postum is
sold everywhere.

BARRED IN PHILADELPHIA
Quaker City Will Not Permit Sale Rsvs. Men Ascribe Fatalities to kact That Laboratory Contained Large Quantities of Poison.

Washington, Oct. 31.-Investiga- ton by chemists of the Bureau of Mines into the effects of fumes from commercial gasoline containing tetra-ethyl has indicated that the danger of poisoning from such gases is extremely remote.
 It is pointed out that the death of five men employed at the Standard oil company of New Jersey labora- tory was due to poisoning encounter ed in the manufacture of concentrat- ed tetra-ethyl, 8 product which is not sold to automobilists except when diluted so that the mixture comprises only one part tetra-ethyl lead to one thousand parts of gaso- lins by volume.
 Govt. Tests Made.
 The bureaus experiments were undertaken originally to ascertain the possibility of health hazards in the use of "antiknock" motor com pounds treated with tetra- ethyl, and involved the exposure to ethyl gaso- line fumes of various types of anil mals--more than 100 in all, and in- cluding pigeons, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and monkeys.
 After period of approximately eight months daily exposure to gas filled air stronger than exists in ordinary street traffic." a state nent issued today by the bureau, there were no indications of lead poisoning. The animals continued to grow and mature at a normal rate.
 Further observations made on man showed that most of the lead in exhaust gases coming from ethyl gasoline when inhaled is again exhaled. /
 The / animals were observed throughout the entire test period of eight months for symptoms of lead poisoning, as colic, paralysis, loss of appetite and loss of weight.
 "Also, careful examination of the blood was made for characteris- tic signs of lead poisoning. At vari- ous times animals were killed and the entire tissues examined for ef- fects of lead and snalyzed for stored-up lead"
