WHAT'S THE USE
Sticking to Any Habit When It
Means Sure Death.
Old King Coffee Knocks subjects out
tolerably flat at times, and there Is no
possible doubt of what did it, A lady
gives her experience, "I used to have
liver trouble nearly till of the lime and
was compelled to take .some liver medi
cine like calomel whit It relieved mo
only for a little while, Then every
(Mice in a while X would be suddenly
doubled up with an awful agony in my
Ktonmeh. It seemed as though every
time I tool: a breath 1 would die. No
one could suffer more aim live.
Finally I got down so Hick with ca
tarrh of the btomach that I could not
turn over In bed am! my stomach did
not digest even milk. The doctur -nally
told me that If I did not give up
drinking coffee I would sutely die, but
1 felt I could pot give U up.
However, Husband brought homo a
package of I'ostum Food Coffee and It
aH made strictly according to ditec
tlons. It was the only thing that
would stay on my stomach, nnd I soon
got so I liked It very much.
Gradually 1 began to gel better, and
week by week gained In strength and
health. Now 1 am in perfect condi
tion, and 1 am convinced that the
whole cause of my trouble was from
coffee drinking, uud my getting better
was duo to leaving olf coffee und tak
ing I'oslittu.
A short time ago I tasted some coffee
nnd found to my astonishment, that I
iltd not wire anything about It. I
never have to take lver medicine any
iiioiv, 1 hope, you will use this letter
for tho benellt of those suffering from
tho poisonous effects or coffee. I
would gladly send to those wio wlt.li,

Mho will corroborate what f say,"
Mrs. Aimer Man-ion, Clinton, Mich,
PAINE CAUSED
A SENSATION
INTIMATED THAT COUNCILMEN
HAD BEEN "FIXED."
After tho Vote on the Gas Finnchlao
Had Been Beconsldeicd Ho Said
That the Compnny's Attorney Had
Stated Thnt tho Members of Coun
cil Would Be Fixed So That tho
Mcasuic Could Be Passed Tho
Ordinance Was Finally Passed on
Third Beading.
Common Councilman II. K, Paine
created somewhat of a sensation nt
Inst night's meeting of the lower
branch of councils by declaring that
the attorney for the Consumers' Gas
company had told him (t'ulne) that
the councilmen would be fixed so that
action on the gas franchise ordinance
could be reconsidered,
Mr. 1'alne got on his feet utter n
motion to reconsider action on the gits
ordinance, which measure was defeat
ed at the last meeting, had been
passed and after a motion to go Into
committee of the whole for the pur
pose of amendment laid been over
whelmingly defeated by a vote of 23
to 0.
"I'd like to know what we're com
ing to, Mr. Chairman?" said the gen
tleman from the Ninth. "The attor
ney representing the Interests of the
promoters of this company walked
down the street with me the other day
and told me he'd have enough councll
nien ilxpd to have action reconsidered
tonight. Apparently he's succeeded
In doing it. This ordinance In Its
present form Is unfair, no, that's too
mild a word It's the most outrageous
ordinance which anybody ever at
tempted to pass through this council."
WHY IIF. OPPOSED IT.
lie made a lengthy argument op
posing the measure, contending that
there was absolutely nothing in It
which Insured cheaper gas and noth
ing In it which gave the citizens of
the city the assurance that they would
be able to obtain tho new company'1
gas even if it was sold at a cheaper
rate. There was no tax provision in
it, either, he said.
"There's nothing in it, at all." Mr.
Paine continued, "and apparently you
propose not to lot us even present
amendments. The nttorney was right
when he said thnt we wouldn't get
even a chance to offer anything."
J. F. Kvans, one of the converts to
the new gas company's franchise, said
that Mr. Paine's remarks weh; alto
gether too broad and desired the gen
tlemen present to understand that he
hadn't been approached by any of the
company's agents. Ho had had a
change of heart because of his constit
uents who had urged him to vote for
tho new company because of their de
sire to have competition. It was a
mistake for Sir. Paine to make asser
tions without proof.
Mr. Keller declared that the ordin
ance was worth absolutely nothing un
less council made changes.
"I say to you, gentlemen," said he,
"that any set of men who come in
hero asking for a privilege such as
this one without agreeing to do a sin
gle thing should be treated with very
little consideration and I say that tho
councilmen who will vote to give them
this franchise are not doing their
duty."
The ordinance was passed by the
following vote:

OPINION BY JUDGE ABOHBALD.
JESSUP.
Many of the lovers of "tt Icks on the
mat" will be In Providence on the
13th Inst,, to witness the wtestllng
match between Cotker and Ursula.
After It is over some of our local ath
letes may have something to offer the
winner,
Never has the need of some other
Industry, besides the mines, in our
town, shown to better advantage than
at the present time. Several hundred
men and boys have been temporal Ily
suspended fiom work by the closing
down of the Mt. Jessup and Mooslc
Mountain collieries and though very
many of them have got employment In
other places still they are simply div
iding up with utile! s wlto were only
earning a small pittance at best. The
mineis In Hterrlck Creek colliery were
unable to get more than tlvo or six
shifts each two weeks for some tlnu?
buck, on account of tho crowded con
dition of the milieu Yet, I am told,
that not less than twenty-live new
places were started In that one colliery
since the Ml, .lessup shut down. This,
necessailly, will reduce tho individual
earnings of tho men, but there Is no
way out of It at the present time. Yet
had the met chants of our town, months
ago, formed a board of trade and lo
cated one or more industry hero wo
wuuld not have the short pays that
will be the rulo for the next three or
four months, If not longer.

Proceedings Against Drehcr Shoo
Company Axo Dismissed.
In tho United States district court
yestcrdny, Judge It. W. Archbald
handed down an opinion containing a
decision making absolute the rulo to
dismiss the bankruptcy proceedings
brought by Henry U Phillips and nine
others of Sellnsgrovo, Sttydor county,
against the Dreher Shoo company of
that place.
The plaintiffs each endorsed one of
a series of ten $100 notes for the shoo
company. These notes were discount
ed by the First National bank or Sel
Insgrove and are still In the bank's
possession, Tho notes arc for one
year and are tinted May 1, 1P01,
Home time after the signing of the
notes the shoo company made an as
signment for the benellt of certain
creditors. The ten endorsers of the
notes sought to void these preferences
by having the shoe company declared
bankrupts, and accordingly on Sept.
16, Joined In a petition to have the
court declare the assignment to be an
act of bankruptcy.
The shoe company and the preferred
creditors defended on the ground that
the petitioners did not hold provable
claims.
Judge Archbald sustains this con
tention. Ho says the petitioners have
no standing, under the present circum
stances, to ask that the shoe company
be declared bankrupts. The petition
ers, the Judge says, are nt present
sureties nnd nothing more. The bank
which holds the notes has done noth
ing to enforce the obligations, nor have
the sureties paid or been called upon
to pay them, The sureties not having
taken up the obligation have no prov
able claim.
"The holder," the opinion goes on lo
say, "is the creditor, who In the first
Instance has exclusively the right to
prove, and tho liability of tho maker
to the endorser Is only contingent In
its nature, nnd bis claim Is only prov
able in a certain event, which cannot
happen until after the adjudication,
viz: the neglect of -the holder to
prove."
