"My dear," said the Cave Man Poet, appearing in the doorway of their dwelling, chisel and maillet in band, "Did you see that page of my poem on 'Spring' I was cutting for the Yearly Neolith yesterday? I cant’ lind it anywhere in the quarry,” . His wife nodded. "Yeh,” she replied querulously, "and ■ don't care—you ought to be out hunt¬ ing grub with the rest of the men. I bounced it off that old pterodactyl’s bean yesterday, when he was snoop¬ ing around here trying to get a couple ol' the children." “And did it—” “Yes, it tore in two and plopped into the lake.” Whereupon the Cave Man threw np both hands in despair, and proceeded to invent paper.

The injurious action of coffee on the hearts of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. This is the drug found by chemists in coffee and tea. A woman suffered a long time with severe heart trouble and finally her doctor told her she, must give up cof¬ fee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes; “My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again. “The doctor told me that coffee was causing the weakness of my heart. He said I must stop It, but it seemed 1 could not give it up until X was down in b?d with nervous prostration. "For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally husband brought Stome some Postum and I quit coffee and started new and right. Slowly I got well. Now 1 do not have any head¬ aches, nor those spells with weak heart. We know it Is Postum that helped me. The Dr. said the other day: ‘1 never thought you would be what you are.’ I used to weigh 92 pounds and now I weigh 158. “Postum has done much for me and 1 would not go back to coffee again, for I believe it would kill me If I kept at it. Postum must be prepared ac¬ cording to directions on pkg., then It has a rich flavor and with cream Is fine.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle ■ Creek, Mich. Read “The Road to Well ville,” in pkgs. Postum comes In two forms: Regular Postum — must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum —Is a soluble pow¬ der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water and, with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage Instantly. 30c and 50c tins. Both kinds are equally delicious and eoBt per cup about the same. “There’s a Reason” for Postum. —sold by Grocers. @1410? THE LEANING TOWER Jnsae OtTPoir dews -Demm N#iv».

ANOTHER BATTLE EXPECTEO MEXICANS LOOK FOR NEXT CON¬ FLICT AT LAMPA20S, A CARRANZA TOWN General Funston Ordered By Secreta ry Bryan To Protect The Texas Border Along Rio Grande Washington.—While Villa forces are delaying their attack on Matamoroa pending the arrival of artillery, the stage is being set for another battie at Lampazos, about seventy miles southwest of Neuvo Laredo. Border advices to the state and war departments said the Villa forces bound to attack the Carranza garrison at Nuevo Laredo were expected to reach Lampazos, “where a battle prob- ; ably will be fought.” Earlier messages ] said Carranza troops were being as¬ sembled at Nuevo Laredo. Should mqre troops be necessary on the American side at Laredo, Tex¬ as, in the event of an attack on Nue¬ vo Laredo, a regiment of infantry is in readiness at Texas City.

REPLY TO BRITAIN American Response Sent England About Blockade—United States Stands For Rights Washington.—The reply of the Unit¬ ed States government to the British order-in-council decreeing a virtual blockade against commerce to and from Germany was cabled to Ambas¬ sador Page at London for presenta¬ tion to the British foreign office.

Beyond the fact that the United States stands firmly for its rights to carry on legitimate trade with neutral countries, even though they be contigumis to belligerents, lit¬ tle is known of the administration’s position in view of developments since the last note was dispatched inquiring how Great Britain and her allies in¬ tend to enforce their prohibition against trade of “enemy origin, own¬ ership or destination.” Officials have pointed out. however, that the American government wanted more definite information as to the radius of action of the allies’ block¬ ading fleets, and that the question of whether the order-in-council was to be enforced under international law gov¬ erning blockades or under the rules of contraband, had not been answered. Garrison Remains In Cabinet Washington.—The White House for the first time took notice of persistent rumors that Secretary of War Garri¬ son is contemplating resigning from the cabinet to become chief justice of the New Jersey supreme court, when Secretary Tumulty made the following statement: “i presume that if Gover¬ nor Fielder intended offering this post to the secretary of war he would, as a matter of courtesy, consult the presi¬ dent before doing so.

This pro, test was transmitted by Germany to Great Britain through the United States. The reply of Great Britain also was made public. The German government, in its pro¬ test, asked whether Great Britain in¬ tended to accord less favorable treat¬ ment—' 0 Raptured German submarine crews l to other war prisoners, and if so, uVB form this discrimination would til. Germany stated that if Great Brirain adopted such a course, a British army officer held prisoner in Germany would receive corresponding¬ ly harsher treatment for each member of a captured German submarine crew. Foreign Secretary Grey, in his reply, said that the prisoners front German submarines had been placed in naval detention barracks and segregated from other war prisoners, but were be¬ ing treated humanely and permitted to take exercise.

PRINZ EITEL READY German Auxiliary Cruiser Is Now Ready To Dash For Home Waters Newport News, Va.—The German merchant raider, Prinz Eitel Friedrich, is ready to go back to sea and to brave the danger of attack from a fleet of warships of the allies off the Virginia capes. Whether she will be sent into the fateful breach or her government submit to internment by the United States remained a myste¬ ry, however, as the last load of sup¬ plies sufficient for a voyage to Bre¬ men was stowed away in her hold un¬ der supervision of the American navy. But if her orders are to break for the open sea the Eitel Friedrich is well prepared. Her bunkers are filled with coal; her storehouse has been re¬ plenished; her machinery lias been re¬ paired and keyed up to the minimum strength; her officers and crew are resigned-to any fate and wa iting f«r the word.

PLAYFUL DOG CHOKES BOY Tragic End for New York Youngster That Came With Tug-of-War Game With Puppy. Thomas Santerano, five years of age, and his cousin, Angelina, aged seven, were playing in the yard-of their home with a cloth dog, sliding him down a cellar door and now and then tying him to clotheslines that dangled from a fire escape. A real dog, unkempt, lean, and no lineage whatever, entered the yard and the children forgot the cloth dog to play with the stranger. Thomas, standing on the cellar door, flipped the clothesline, and the dog seized it. He tugged one way and Thomas the other the boy slipping around on the cellar door and laugh¬ ing. Ii. some way the rope got about his neck. He tugged to free himself and the dog resisted. The little girl didn’t understand why her cousin didn’t shout and laugh any more.

A native Indian writer, a Mr. Mitra. in a letter to an English newspaper, tells of the kind of delicacies that the British Indian troops at the front par¬ ticularly enjoy. The principal things are ghee, areca nut, betel and Indian tobacco. The English readers, says the Man¬ chester Guardian, ghee will be the most mysterious of these commodi¬ ties. It is a kind of clarified butter, made from curdled milk—in India, usually from buffalo milk. The curdled milk is churned into butter: then the butter stands for a few days until it begins to turn rancid. Then it is boiled, and seasoned with dhye— whatever that is—salt or the leaf of the betel, which is a kind of pepper plant. Indians like it. but Europeans seldom do. because it is so “ripe'' that it is virtually rancid. As most people know, the Hindus use the areca nut as a kind of chew¬ ing gum. They chew it with betel leaf and a little shell lime. The nut is astringent and bitter, but it does not seem to have any particular effect on the user. The betel leaf adds a peppery fiuvor to the combination. Adam was the only man in (he his¬ tory of the world who never tried to blame bis downfall heredity. Some people are so careless they don't care what happens, so long as it. doesn't happen to them. Why pray to be delivered from temptation and then go around look¬ ing for it? Three Devonshire (England) broth¬ ers who went to the front have re¬ turned (wounded) by the same train. A broken promise can be repaired, but it can never lie made as good as new.
