C&ffcin* Tannin Caffeine Tannin
25gr. 2.4 gr. NONA NOM
Any analytical chemist can prove by analysis that coffee
contains two harmful drugs—
Caffeine —an alkaloid that irritates the heart, liver and
kidneys, and upsets the nerves.
Tannin—a drug which produces an astringent action
upon the tissues of the stomach and bowels.
But the greatest test of all is made in thous
ands of homes where it is daily proven by
personal experience that headaches, bilious
ness, indigestion, heart irritation anjl nervous
. ness are very often caused by coffee drinking.
An ordinary cup of coffee contains about 2'/ 2 grains of
caffeine, and 2 2-5 grains of tannin.
Some coffee concerns have tried in various ways—with
out much success—to rid coffee of its caffeine, because
they know its harmful effects. Now they are agitated be
cause people are objecting to the presence of tannin in
coffee—the same element (but obtained from bark) that is
used to tan leather.
, The simple, easy way out of coffee troubles is to quit
this harmful beverage and use the pure food-drink
POSTUM
It is absolutely free frqm these drugs or any harmful
substance. Made only from prime wheat (roasted) and a
small percent of molasses, Postum contains the rich, nu
tritious values of the grain—is a genuine food-drink.
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum —must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages.
I nut a lit PoMtum —a soluble powder. A teaspoonful stirred in a
cup of hot water, with cream and sugar makes a delightful beverage
Instantly- 30c and 50c tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is about the same.
"There's a Reason" for POSTUM
—sold by grocers everywhere.

BAJgUBBPRQ TEUBOfUPH
ffl M HECITIL
PROVES DIG SUCCESS
Player Piano Used For Accom
panying Violinist* and
Soprano Soloist
The almost unprecedented audience
of over 1.200 persons attended the
Van Yorx Angel us recital In the Tech
nical high school auitorlum last even
ing. In this concert the Angelus
player was used, not only as a means
for solo work, but In the hands of
Mr. Van Yorx to accompany Sara
Lemer, violinist: flans Kronold, vio
lincelllst, and Mrs. Bumbaugh. so
prano soloist.
The concert was without a doubt a
tremendous success, to the mind of
the audience. Several musicians have
expressed themselves by stating that
Mr. Van Yorx accomplished almost
the Impossible In that he relieved the
common Impression that all player
piano music must be turned out by the
"yard."
Technique with a player-piano is
almost of necessity flawless, but Mr.
Van Yorx' mastery of tempo showed
that this mechanical perfection could
be made much less noticeable. Par
ticularly were the musicians of Har
risburg surprised with the excellence
of the accompaniments.
The secret of success In this field of
mudic lies in following the soloist by
just the fraction of a second, and, as
every artist is given to individual in
terpretation of- a composition, It was
only natural that it should be ex
pected that the player accompaniment
of any composition should to a
greater or less degree conflict with the
soloist interpretation. Particularly
should -such expectation be the case
with Mrs. Bumbaugh and Miss Lemer,
but it was the accompaniments of
these two artists' numbers which were
commented upon so favorably.
Hans Kronold. unfortunately, was
at a disadvantage in his first number.
The stage setting and the accoustics
produced a peculiar effect which was
anything but pleasing, but before
starting upon his second number, the
well-known meditation from "Thais,"
by Massanet, Mr. Kronold had the
potted plants rearranged and it was
then that the audience was permitted
to realize the mastery which has made
him the world-famed musician.
Miss Lemer's first number was the
Legende by Wlenawaski. Her playing
Is greatly to be praised, not alone
from its artistry, but as well from the
fact that It was Miss Lemer's first
attempt at playing with an Angelus
accompaniment. Her second number,
"Hejre Kati," so well pleased the au
dience that Miss Lemer was forced to
respond with an encore, for which she
played the well-known Humoresque
by Dvorak.
Mrs. Bumbaugh's work received the
highest commendation and was un
doubtedly heard at her best in the
Cadman version of the Indian melody,
"The Land of the Sky Blue Water."
Conference On City
Employe Appointments
Due To-morrow Night
Instead of meeting to-night to con
fer on the proposed appointments un
der the so-called "ripper" resolution,
the City Commissioners will get to
gether in conference to-morrow even
ing, it was announced by Cjty Com
missioner W. H. Lynch.
All the commissioners including
Mayor Royal and Superintendent of
Finance W. L. Gorgas will attend, it
is expected, and the personnel of the
various departments will be gone over
and the probable permanent changes
decided upon. At that, comparatively
few dismissals and new appointments
will be made, it is believed. The
Lvncli resolution calls for the dismis
sal of all the city employes, not other
wise protected by the Clark act, on
March 1, but it is said that no depart
ment except the Police Department
will be materially affectejl.
The proposed dismisses will likely
•e incorporated in one or more resolu
tions to be offered in Council Tuesday
afternoon. The Mayor's resolution,
providing for the reappointment of
the entire police force, it is under
stood, will be postponed indefinitely or
killed.
