BY WAR ARE HELPLESS
English and Amerioan Tourists Hard Pressed for Bare Necessities in Swiss Cities.
IjONDON, Aug. 13.—The fashionable season in Switzerland was at its height, when war was declared, and as a result more than 10 000 English and American tourists are stranded in that country. The British minister at Berne has issued the following proclamation: "During mobilization travel through France is impossible and tourists are recommended to remain where they are until it is possible to arrange for transit."
Many tourists are hard pressed for the bare necessities of life. Some are trying to borrow small amounts on their letters of credit, these being often for large sums.
The British minister has asked the French government to take steps to provide transportation for those visitors. The French government replies that this will be impossible until the mobilization has bfien completed when a special train service will be arranged.
AMSTERDAM, Aug. 13.—via London.—The special train bringing 400 Americans from Berlin, arrived here at 3 o'clock this morning. The party, which was under the direction of the American ambassador to Germany, James W. Gerard, continued on the train to Rotterdam, whence they will sail for the United States on a steamer of the Holland-American line.

Breakdown Caused by Coffee

The girl who was killed was pinioned under the machine.
"I am satisfied," says a prominent physician, that coffee is responsible in a great degree for the premature breakdown of our active men and women. ''They suffer from caffeine poisoning. "Of the truth of this, there is not the shadow of a doubt. Our common sense tells us that the daily swallowing of caffeine" (the alkaloid in tea and coffee), "powerfully affecting heart and brain—is followed by nervous depression, and finally by more or less disastrous results. "I believe if people in general would use a harmless, nutritious drink like Postum as a beverage in place of tea and coffee, their physical and mental condition would be much improved."
Thousands, troubled with nervousness, biliousness, sleeplessness, headache and heart flutter, have done precisely what this physician advises— given up tea and coffee and adopted—
POSTUM
"There's a Reason"
with happy results.
Postum is a pure food-drink, made from wh at and a bit of molasses, cor tain in the nutrition )f the grain. No caffeine—no drugs—no harmful ingredient in Postum. A delicious, nourishing beverage.
Postum comes in two forms. Regular Postum—must be boiled, 15c and 25c packages.
Instant Postum—soluble—made in the cup, instantly, 30c and 50c tins. Grocers everywhere sell both kinds and the ner cup is about the same.
