What has been said about coffee also holds good in regard to tea," says a physician of note. More and more, people are coming to know that the coffee and tea habits are responsible for a large percentage of those nervous disorders classed under the head of "neurasthenia," or nervous prostration. Roth coffee and tea contain the drug, caffeine, a powerful irritant of the nerves. They also contain tannin—an astringent—which acts most unfavorably upon the intestinal walls. Headache, "nerves," insomnia, biliousness—the»e are some of the signs of caffeine poisoning. Many coffee and tea drinkers are learning that the way to health is by quitting coffee and tea; and for a pleasant, healthful drink, using POSTUM hfin —the pure food-drink. il\_ i ~l'i POSTUMW -I This delightful table beverage is made of whole pji! wheat roasted with a little wholesome molasses; it j|ijff contains only the nourishing properties of the 4'ili grain.

The least that can be expected is a suspen sion until an agreement is reached. The mine owners' recent figures show that the 20 per cent increase in wages, demanded by the miners would add 60c per ton to the cost of mining domestic sizes of coal. There is every evidence that many of the miners' demands will be rejected—the result may be a serious strike; similar to that of 1902. The miners say that wages in all other lines are being increased and as living expenses are higher they must have a larger income. I v It's impossible to say what will happen. The coal consumer will do well to fortify himself with an ample supply of coal this month. After April Ist the supply may be limited. United Ice & Coal Co. I"i>inter Jt Coivdea N.
