Trouble in Quitliiij. lhe Coffee Habit.
"For more than twenty ycaij-I used
coffee and tea. lf 1 mlssed coffee for
breakfast. I had a violent heauacne. When
1 learned this. I tried to give it up, but
found that tea had the same -elt'ect. 1
was a slave to -botli. and would become
so nervous hat 1 hardly kn.w what to
d.? with myself if I 'tried lo give them
up.
"I often heard people say that tea
made them nervous. and I wondercd how
it could do -this. when it acted the re
verse wlth me, for my headache would
disappear at once, after I drank tea. lt
was plain that it was hurting me, but
?that 1 had got""5b 'that I could not do
without it.
"Fina.ly I thought I would try Postum
Food Coffee. a.id after buyi-ig a paekage
and preparing it carefuiry. was much
surprised to find 1 lilted it very much. but
after an hour I was suffering with a
dreadful nervous headache. which .a.ted
all day. In the evening 3 gave up and
tiiad. "a cup of tea, which relieved the
headache.
"This -proved to me that I was a slave
to a stimular.t habit. so I resolved 1
would give it up at once and' drink
Pcstum. even if I did have a headache
for a day or two in breaking over thes
line. I stuck to the Postum and _ny
meadache entirely dlsappeared. I toegan
?to feel fresher and hrlsht^r than I had
for ten years. Now I crave neifher cof?
fee nor tea, but like Postum better thun
I did either of the old drinks. This
?pleases me greatly, for I am better siuis
lied with the new drink than 1 was with
Uie others. and yet I am gaining steadlly
in health and utrengUi. 1 always used
?the best grades of tea.and coffee. which
are far more expensive than Postum.
T-hls is another advantage in the change.
1 would not go back to the old slavery
and had feelings for a'nythlng on earth.

Sn going for and towing steamer AerRl
front Curl's Neck to Richmond, and as
sls'tlng city property during high water.

month we dredged vhree cut?-bwonty-Uve
feet wide, about four hundred feet lor.g
from dhVji locics down. which nrill admit
vessels drav.-ing iifteen feet. 1 had ;t
dreuiged to fifteen ar.d one-half feet. The
last high Water filled lt up to lifteen feet.

tee appointed to consider tne proposition
Ot Messrs. Whitlock and Hanson for spe?
cial ..-and privlleges, after a consultatlon
with 'the City Engineer, reported tha,t
the committee would be unable to take
any steps to consider any proposttions
for sand prtvileges until the dyking was
under way.
The proposition of Messrs. AVhitlocK
anfl Hanson is to pay the city the sum
of .**1,0W tor the sand privileges for a
teran of live years.
As the work of building the dykes and
dyking will require a great deal of sand.
the committee deemed it advisable to
dc-fer action in regard to'allowing any
sand to be. removed until a later day.
Some of the sand will be used to fill in
the space in the dykes:
Alr. Fergusson moved that the clerk
be instructed to inform Alessrs. AA'hitlock'
und Hanson that the committee is in
fornieu that lt will be at least until July
next before any arrangement can be
jnade for getting and storihg sand along
the dykes from Seventeenth Street to the
