Feel Out of Scrts?
It's a good idea to
look for the cause!
One common, but often unsuspected cause is coffee-drinking. Yet some
persons seem able to get along with coffee —at least for a time. But when
headachy, bilious days come; breakfast or some other meal doesn't taste good;
and the day's work goes wrong. (Ever feel that way?)—then it's time to find
out for sure if coffee is causing the trouble in your case.
There's a subtle, poiSbnous drug, "caffeine," in coffee that interferes with
the normal functions of body, brain and nerves, and has a lot to do with one's
comfort and progress.
Suppose for a test you try the simple expedient of quitting coffee and using
well-made
POSTUM
—a pure food-drink made of choice wheat. It has,a delightful, Java-like flavour
but is absolutely free from caffeine or any other drug.
After ten days or two weeks you will be able to decide whether to go back
to coffee troubles, or stick to Postum and peace and comfort.
Postum comes in two forms.
Regular Postum—must be well boiled.
Instant Postum—doesn't require boiling, but is prepared instantly by stirring
a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water and adding cream and sugar
to taste.
Grocers everywhere sell both kinds.

HARVESTING ICE 1'
RIVER JD CREEK
Many Tons Have Already Been
Removed by Men in West
Shore Towns
The cold weather of the past week
has put a good coating of ice along
the west side of the Susquehanna and
in the Conodogulnet creek. Many men
are engaged in cutting ice, about the
first of the winter, and at West Fair
view they are harvesting cakes five
and six Inches in thickness. Albert
Shaull, an Ice cream manufacturer in
that town, has already cut several tons
of ice and will keep his force of men
at work probably all of this week if
weather condition permit.
The ice on the creek and at Worm
leysburg is in good condition for skat
ing and daily several hundred young
sters are on the Ice at these two
places.

CAMP HILL IS WAITING
Residents of Camp Hill are torday
wondering whether or not the water
company will shut, off the water in
the town on Thursday as was threat
ened. The company, it appears,
agreed to furnish water in the town at
10 cents per hundred cubic feet but
when the last bills were rendered the
charge had jumped to 30 cents. The
citizens committee urged the residents
not to pay their bills until the mat
ter could be adjusted and now the
case is pending a decision before the
Public Service Commission. The Cum
berland county court has been asked
to compel the water company to fur
nish water until the controversy is
settled. Some persons believe that the
bills at the 30 cent rate should be paid
now and if the case is decided in fa
vor of the borough the company
should bo made to refund the amount
over the ten cent rate.
A. I. SOCIETY TO ENTERTAIN'
The A. I. Society of the Trinity Lu

President Wilson Favors
Freight Rate Increase
Washington, D. C., Jan. 20. • To
callers -President Wilson yesterday ad
mitted that there was some unrest in
the business world, but indicated that
it was largely confined to industries
whose property is dependent to a
greater or less degree on tho prosper
ity of the railroads. Friends of the
Administration declare that the busi
ness of the railroads will undoubtedly
liven up if they are permitted to In
crease rates in accordance with their
application made to the Inter-State
Commerce Commission. The impres
sion is quite general that tho commis
sion will act favorably on the appli
cation of the railroads.
President Wilson told callers yes
terday that he would regard It aa
highly improper for him to discuss the
merits of the proposed increase In
railroad freights in his message to
Congress in view of the fact that the
appeal for this increase is pending be
fore the Inter-State Commerce Com
mission. It. had been indicated that
the President might consider himself
justified In advising the commission in!
a public way as to his personal views
on the subject.
It Is regarded as practically certain
that the President's personal view Is
that permission to make the desired
increase in freight rates should be
given to the roads. The understanding
is that close personal friends of the
President and men in whose fairness
and Integrity of mind he has great
confidence have advised Mr. Wilson
that an Imperative necessity exists for
the betterment of railroad conditions,
especially in the East.
Information from these correspond
ents In regard to the general business
outlook In the railroad field have been
seriously considered by the President
and have resulted in the conclusion
reached by him that the railroads' re
quest should be approved.

Latent Life in Inorganic
Matter, Servant's Belief
Baltimore, Md. a Jan. 20. —Before a
distinguished group of scientists in
the Johns Hopkins physical laborator
ies last evening, Dr. L. J. Henderson,
of Harvard University, asserted that
researches extending over many
years had convinced him that inor
ganic matter contained latent life.
Before the surprised savants who
heard this radical theory had recover
ed from their astonishment, he added
that he believed this latent life be
came active, under certain conditions
and that soon the. line between the
two would be crossed.
Just as important as the missing
link between the lower animal life
and the human life is the connecting
link between matter that is wholly
inorganic and passive, and that which
is organic and active. Doctor Hen
derson believes he is on the way to
find that missing link. He believes
that the dividing line between the
thing that lives and the thing that is,
but does not live, soon will be estab
lished, and that he will be able to
demonstrate the process of transition.
Pittsburgh to Do Away
With "Middle" Profits
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Jan. 20. —A large manu
facturing plant which will produce
1,687 grocery commodities and sell
them at about 30 per cent, less than
I the people are now paying will be a
reality at Pittsburgh before many
months, according to C. C. Truax,
president of the Pittsburgh Wholesale
Grocery Company.
The company is compased of retail
grocers of the Pittsburgh district, and
the object is to do away with the
middleman. Throughout the United
States there will soon be fifteen such
organizations, and all will be affiliated
with the United Grocers Company, of
Toledo, Ohio.
The Pittsburgh company plans to
eliminate the expense of wholesale
grocer credits, commercial salesmen,
advertising and brokers' commissions.
Each grocer is a stockholder.
POISONS THAT IRRITATE
When the delicate machinery of the
body is not working harmoniously,
poisons are retained that should be ex
pelled. These may accumulate in the
tissues and cause irritation. Should
this Irritation affect joints or muscles
you have rheumatism; If a nerve be
comes inflamed you have neuralgia.
But if the system is kept toned yp
with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and no
body poisons are retained, foods that
once distressed you will be harmless,
exposure will bring no rheumatism
and neuralgia and even germ diseases
need hardly be dreaded.
The lowering of the tone of the
system which results from thin blood
Is easy to recognize. Weakness is al
ways present, a tendency to perspire
and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears,
black spots passing before the eyes,
weak back, dizziness, wakefulness and
unrefreshlng sleep. These conditions
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will correct.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up
the blood and strengthen the nerves.
In this way the general health Is im
proved, the appetite increases, and the
new ambition and energy Is developed.
These pills are sold by all druggists.
