KNOWSNOW
Doctor Was Pooled By His
Own Case For a Time
It’s easy to understand how ordinary
people get foolefi by coffee when doc
tors themselves sometimes forget the
facts.
A physician speaks of his own experi
ence )
“I had used, coffee for years and
really did not exactly believe it waq
injuring me although I had palpitation
of the heart every day. (Tea contains
caffeine—the same drug found In cof
fee—and is just as harmful as coffee*.
“Finally one day a severe and almost
fatal attack of heart trouble frighten
ed me as cl I gave up both tea and cof
fee. using Postum instead and since
that time 1 have had absolutely no
heart palpitation except on one or two
occasions when I tried a small quantity
of coffee which caused severe irritation
and proved to me I must let it alone.
"When we began using Postum it
seemed weak—that was because we did
not make it according to directions—
but now we put a little bit of butter
in the pot when boiling and allow the
Postum to boil full 15 minutes which
gives it the proper rich flavouring and
the deep brown color.
“I have advised a great many of
my friends and patients to leave off
coffee and drink Postum. in fact I dally
give this advice." Name given by Pos
tum Co.. Battle Creek. Mich.
Many thousands of physicians use
Postum in place of tea and coffee in
their own homes and prescribe it to

Up” According te British
Inquiry Tuesday

LONDON. May 14. —in expectation
I that J. Bruce Ismay, managing director
White Star line, would be pres
ent, the hall and galleries were well
filled today when the British inquiry
1 into the Titanic disaster was resumed.
Captain Lord, at the Californian,
which was near the Titanic when she
j sunk, was the first witness.
The attorney general Indicated that
I there would be a material difference be-
I tween the stories of the captain and
i his officers in regard to the steamer
seen from the deck of* the Californian
during the'night of the wreck.
Captain Lord said that he was sure
the steamer was not the Titanic, but
a vessel of about the size of the Cal
ifornian. ' 4
Captain Lord said he had not .been
told that th* deck lights of the vessel
tad disappeared. Th* second officer
of the Californian, he said, reported
in the morning that the vessel whose
masthead lifcht Had been seen had
stopped during the night but had start*
ed about 1 o'clock and went off to the
southwestward, her stern light being
seen at 2 o’clock.
Witness continued: "It was reported
in the morning that the steamer which
had been seen during the night had
fired several rockets, but I saw only
one. I thought It might have been a
company signal or an acknowledgement
of the Californian's Morse signals by
which we had been trying to communi
cate with the steamer.
“If they had been distress signals I
should have heard the rockets as the
vessels were only five miles apart. I
did not hear that the Titanic had sunk
until the morning. At the time I
thought as she was reported to be 19
miles'away, we might nave seen her
sinking.”
Allen Edwards. representing the
dockers' union, asked Captain Lord
whether he and his officers had not
been offended by a wireless message
received from the Titanic telling the
Californian to “shut up."
Captain Lord replied that they did
not discuss it

today declaring that Governor Blease’s
appointment of township commission

that- the 10 commissioners named by

governor in cases where the appointees
were not indorsed by the senator and
legislators from their counties or

ten years of my time on this one disease and
handling in the meantime a quarter of a mil

do not care what all you bare nsed, nor how
many doctor, have told you that you could not
be cured—all I ask la just a chance to show
you that I know what I am talking about.
it you will write me TODAY, I will send you
a FREE TRIAL of my mild, soothing, guaran
teed cure that will convince you more in a
day than I or anyone else cosld in a month’s

I dare you to give me a chance to prove my
claims. By writing me today you will enjoy
more real comfort than you bad ever thought
thia world holds for you. Just try it and you
will see I am telling you the truth.
