and interesting speeches were heard on

peared before the committee and in a
clear and masterly way gave reasons

challenged the statement of Dr. Hunni
cutt and demanded proof which he could
not give of the aisertion which he made

board of trustees of the University of
Georgia also challerged this statement
of Dr. Hunnicutt.

Coffee serves some people in
atrocious manner.
“1 was a veritable coffee fiend, until
finally my stomach rebelled at the treat
ment and failed to work,” writes a
gentleman from New York.
“I had dyspepsia in its worst form.;
blind, staggering headaches with verti
go abont half hour after each time I ate,
and I finally grew so weak and became
so thin that my mother advised me to
stop coffee and try Postnm Food Coffee.
I did not like it at first, bnt after ex
perimenting in making it, Mother soon
got it just right, and I then liked it bet
ter than coffee.
I soon noticed my biliousness stopped
and I lost the trembling effect on my
nerves; Postnm did not stimulate me
bnt seemed to exhilarate. I gradually
regained my wonted good health ; my
old appetite returned, and today I am
well—dyspepsia, headache and vertigo
all gone, and Postnm did it
When I began its nse, I had been
troubled for two years with all kinds of
stomach trouble. I became a veritable
walking apothecary ehop, bnt 1 have not
taken a dose of medicine since I com
meneed using Postnm.” Name given

One Very Common Cause,
Looked
Headaohe is a symptom, an indication
of derangement or disease in some organ,
and the cause of the hpadacheis diffioult
to locate because so many diseases have
headache as a prominent symptom ; de
raugement of the stomach and liver,
heart trouble, kiduey disease, lung
trouble, eye strain or ill fitting glasses
all produce headaches and if we could
always locate the organ whioh is at fault
the cure of obstinate headaches would
be u much simpler matter.
However, for that form of headache
called frontal headache, pain back of the
eyes and iu forehead, the cause is now
known to be catarrh of the head, and
throat ; when the headache is located
in back of head and neck it is often
caused from catarrh of the stomach or
liver.
At any rate catarrh is the most com
mon cause of such headaches and the
cure of the catarrh causes a prompt dis
appearance of the headaches.
There is at present uo treatment for
catarrh so convenient and effective as
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a new internal

••I suffered daily from severe frontal
headache and pain in and back of the
eyes, at times so intensely as to incapac

years, bnt never thought it was the
cause of my headache, but finally be
