When they do succeed in getting rid of some of the caffeine drug-content, tin result is a weak, "clover-tea" decoction that few appreciate. But after all their efforts to rid coffee of part of its caffeine, how about tiie other coffee-drug, "tanniu"—about 'J 2-5 grains to every cup of coffee? Tannin is the drug used to tan hides with. Do you know what it does to vuur stomach? Probably not. Here i< what good authorities say about it: — "Tannic a-id in coffee interferes with digestion." ' The caffeine and theine in coffee and tea are cerebral stimulants, and the tannic a- id is an astringent, affecting • specially the muscular fibers of the intestinal walls." "Tannic acid is universally condemned by all authorities as a hindrance to digestion and health." Why keep on running the risk of s.-rioys interference with health. Why not quit a table beverage that bears in its train a lot of trouble like nervous ness. headache, heart, stomach, bowel disturbance, insomnia, etc. Thousands, suffering from these i Is. find it easy to quit coffee when they have at hand the delicious, nourishing beverage— POSTUM — a pure food-driDk.

OUTLINES HIS REFORM PLANS Palmer and McCormlck Invade Home City of Penrose and Plead With Citizens to Prevent Senator's Re election (Special to the Star-Independent, i Greensburg. Pa.. Oct. 23.—Some ouo yesterday sent to Dr. Brumbaugh, Re publican candidate for Governor, a series of questions while he was on the platform at Latrobe. He answered them without pause or hesitation, evidently to the satisfaction of his cheering au dience. Pr. Brumbaugh's direct state ment that he had no agreement, ex pressed or implied, with the liquor in terests. organized or unorganized, was especially marked by applause. In the allotted time Dr. Brumbaugh could only reaffirm the pledges of his platform, which brought to him what he termed the "credentials of 253,000 of his fellow -citizens." "When 1 am chosen Governor," he said. "I will be Governor and nobody else. 1 shall earn the salary that is paid to me. and I shall insyst upon and sec to it that every man employed bv the State must earn his salary by hon est work. If be doesn't earn it. I'll fire him. No power or influence will be strong enough to keep an unworthy man in his job a single day." Brumbaugh at Greensburg In his Greensburg speech Pr. Brum baugh said in part: "1 am absolutely convinced that this great State of Pennsylvania should see to it that laws are enacted that are as humane and benetieient and far-reach ing in their provision for the care of our working people as the wisdom of the Commonwealth can produce. This includes the whole program of social service and civic welfare. j '*l believe iu a good, sane, sensible and effective workiugmeii's compensa ; tion act. 1 regret that the last Legis -1 lature failed to eiiact such a law, and I ! shall insist "that the incoming Legis lature shall speedily crystallize the ; wish of the people in this matter into the law of the Commonwealth, and if i elected Governor 1 shall assuredly sign ; such an act. "Our liability act is not sufficiently 1 far-ieaching iu its provisions as to guar- I antee to the widows and orphans of j tiiosi ,who are fatally injured iu our | industries the protection which the cor porate power of the State should guar antee to them. It may be that by tax ing these corporations or iu some other ! fair and equitable manner the money may be put into the hands of the Com 'monwealth itself and paid by the Com monwealth directly to those who by law are entitled to receive it. It ought to ! be possible for a man toiling in Penn sylvania to know that if by unavoid -1 able accident he should lose his life in ' his service to his family in earning for 'hem bread, that they because ot his sacrifice shall never want for bread. "Pennsylvania can point with pride I to her already splendidly organized de ' part men ts of health, and we must go ! beyond this, and with all forms of pre ventive aud precautionary measures, safeguard the strength and promote the ; earning capacity and the happiness of our people who toil with their hands. Praises Health- Department "The people of this Commonwealth should be permitted iu each country to >ettle for themselves the question whether or not licenses for the sale of intoxicating liquors shall be granted in the country. This in my judgment is a ; duty which the Legislature aud the Executive alike owe to the [>eople of Pennsylvania, and in my primary plat form, as well as before the .pjople in ' this campaign, 1 have steadily stood, and shail continue to for this | fonn of local option. It is a part ot' the propoganda for the safeguarding of the health and the strength of our ■ people, and is the natural outgrowth of ! the teaching in our schools. I "Pennsylvania can well rejoice in her splendid record of support to our charitable institutions; but the method of distributing the money is both un businesslike and unscientific. Wc give enough but we do not give it wisely. This money should be distributed in a purely nonpartisan way, on such a basis as to promote the largest, pos sible good and relieve the greatest amount of suffering. No hand should ever reach into the sources of support for the helpless and needy of the com uiouwealth or divert from them any relief or assistance which the good 'heart of the commonwealth always has generously provided for. Under wise j supervision the State has an absolute I right to know that its money is ac- I eomplishing the thing which the people intended it should accomplish, j "If I understand aright the dignity 1 and the responsibility of the office of I Governor, it is my solemn duty so to administer the laws as to make it easy | for the people to do right and hard for | them to do wrong, and with singleness | of purpose and solemn devotion to duty ! to serve in an honest and capable way j the best interests of all pur people. My love for the State, my respect for its splendid past, my unbounded confidence in its glorious outlook for the future j aiike make it both a privilege and a • pleasure to render to the people the i best service I can possibly bring to i them.''

McCormick, Democratic' and Washington party nominee for' Governor, accompanied Mr. Palmer in his tour of the city and in addition 5 to the meeting at which Mr. Palmer | spoke, addressed a crowd of workmen at the League Island Navy Yard in the afternoon. The gubernatorial candidate asserted that if Dr. Brumbaugh were ( elected Governor, jt would be irnpos- j sible for him to escape from the con- j trol of the Penrose supporters. Emphasis was placed upon legisla- j tion designed to benefit the workingman ! by Mr. Palmer in his address at noon yesterday at the Cramp shipyards. A crowd of more than 500 men pressed closely about the automobile from which the Democratic candidate spoke., at Beach and Kast Morris streets. A, score of shop foremen, but no oflicials j of the company, were among his audi-1 enee. Mr. Palmer and Mr. McCormick 1 were introduced by Robert S.

THE "RECORD" AND THE WAR Philadelphia Newspaper Doesn't Let Europe Crowd Out Other News About three-quarters of the newspa pers of the eountiv seem to be laboring under the impression of late that there j is little of consequence going 011 any- * where in the world but the European j war. A notable exception is the Phila delphia "Record,'' whose editors pre- i serve a just sense of proportion iu the j presentation of news, as usual. The j war is getting all the attention it de serves in the ''Record" in the shape of full and satisfying accounts from all \ the foreign sources, but it is not al- j lowed to overshadow reports of other events, at home and abroad, in which ' well-balanced newspaper readers are in terested. Freedom from sensationalism has served the Philadelphia "Record" well in this war situation. "Record" popularity is perhaps ac counted for by "Record" versatility.' The Philadelphia "Record" covers ev ery phase of human activity in its var- j ied departments, and stands in the good graces of every member of the family.. It is fair, clean, reliable, bright and i entertaining. It is a level-headed all- ! around newspaper for intelligent people 1 who want trustworthy news of all hap penings worth reading about, sifrved in attractive form. Adv. Russian terrorists who have been in the habit of digging tunnels for the i purpose of blowing up the czar will j wonder why they never thought of climbing over the fence of the winter palace and getting in through a cellar window.

After the battle he was sur rounded by enemies and would have lost his life had he not been saved bv the presence of mind of one of his sol diers, Corporal Spohn. Realizing that Napoleon's only chance for life was in getting off the battlefield unrecognized, the corporal begged the Emperor to change hats and horses with him. The change was made ere the smoke of battle had cleared away and Napoleon, with his corporal's hat and mounted on a poor steed, rode away unnoticed, the Cossacks crowding around the corporal. Taking him pris oner. they led him in triumph to the Russian general. There the mistake was soon discovered, and the corporal's brave act cost him his life. According to the Cohlentz legend, Napoleon, in remembrance of Spohn's self-sacritice, always after this pre ferred a corporal's uniform to any oth er and wore it so often that his men came to speak of hini familiarv as '• l.e Petit Caporal."—Fioni "The Rhine,'' translated by G.
