Pa., March 9.—Crows are coming into their share of censure by the sportsmen. They are not only killing partridge and rabbits, but opossums are also their prey, as a half dozen or more bounced down on one In a field in Reed township and picked it to death one day during the past week. Overwhelming Verdict A few months ago, a man in no way conn.cted with the making of Postum or the marketing ol cotfee, wrote to quite a numb:r of physicians all over the country asking unbia ed testimony in the case ot Postum vs. Coffee. The following excerpts fiom h ir letters constitute an overwhelming verdict In Favor of Postum "I have discarded coffee altogether in my family, and instead use Postum which we find makes a rich, delicious drink, without any of the deleterious effects attendant on the continuous use oi coffee." "Our family have been users of Pos tum for a long time. VVe were very liberal coffee drinkers, but were con scious that coffee was harming us—our nervous system, digestion* and heart action so we quit the coffee and be gan using Postum. Now we relish it far more than we did coffee, and are all relieved of the old coffee troubles. As a physician I have induced several families to quit coffee and use Postum." "Postum when it is desirable to leave off coffee on account of over- Stimulation or gastric disturbances." • "Postum has been used in my fam ily nearly ever since it was placed on the market, and I recommend it to my patients. It is a nourishing drink. A great many families are giving their children Postum in place of coffee with best of results." In the light of such testimony it would seem the part of wisdom to stop coffee and use Postum. Postum is a genuine food-drink, made of whole wheat and a small per cent, of molasses. Contains the nutritious values of the grain, but is pure and absolutely free from the coffee drug, caffeine, or any other harmful substance. Postum comes in two forms: Regular Postum—must be well boiled to bring out its fine flavor. 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum—a soluble form. A teaspoonful stirred in a cup of hot water—with sugar and cream added—makes a delightful beverage instantly. 30c and 50c tins. The cost per cup of both kinds is about the same. "There's a Reason" for POSTUM —sold by grocers everywhere. MONDAY EVENING, Lewisberry Pastor Gives Oyster Supper For Class Special to The Telegraph Lewisberry, Pa., March 9.

I prefer it to the best coffee, and have no more sour stomach attacks as I used to." "For years I have been using Postum in the family advocating it for my patients. 1 consider it to be exactly what its manufacturers claim for it. Postum is excellent in place of coffee where the latter is contraindicated. The food value of Postum plays an im portant part when compared with coffee." "Have had many cases that could not drink coffee on account of its reflex action on the heart Postum always supplies the place of coffee without the bad effects." WIHGMKS OK CROSS M CMS Motorman, if System Is Adopted, Will Call Oat Stops Along Line Lemoyne, Pa„ March 9.—Mega phones on street cars with which to call out the stops is a new step which I the Valley Railways Company is plan ning to take In the near future. Al ' though nothing definite has been done ■ as yet, the officials want to make some | improvements in their cars for the ac commodation of patrons and electric I bells on the cross river lines are not considered adequate. A passenger ; riding on one of the cars at night jand left to ring the bell for his stop is at a loss to know at Vvaich time to | push the button because of the dark -1 ness. In the city the streets are well i j lighted and a passenger can see at what point the car Js. Through the rural districts, however, conditions are different. Even the conductor at times I Is at a loss to know where to pull the bell rope, the darkness veiling the houses and objects which during the day tell him at what point to signal ' the motorman. Motorman to Use It If the company does not adopt the ' megaphone system, It will be worked I I by the motorman. The small end of a specially constructed megaphone ' will reach to a point just in front of 1 the motorman's face, the big end opening Into the Interior of the car. The motorman, because of his posi tion, is the only person on the car who knows and is able to see the car's exact location at night and for this reason the car company believes the megaphone system would be the most adequate and that the motorman would be the proper man to call the stops, shouting Into the small end of the megaphone. "I have used Posttim for the past eight years in place of coffee. Before that I was troubled with frequent bilious headaches due to excessive use of coffee, and was then advised to use Postum. Since that time I have not had a single attack, which effect I attribute entirely to Postum. I fre quently recommend it to others who experience equally gratifying results." "Hardly a week goes by that I do not advise some patient with an irritable, acid stomach and nervous heart to stop at once the use of all coffee and take up the use of Postum, and always with good results." "I am satisfied that coffee is re sponsible in a great degree for the pre mature 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 com mon sense tells us that the daily swal lowing of caffeine over-stimulating the heart and brain—will be followed by nervous depression, and finally by more or less disastrous results, f be lieve if peoole in general would use j Postum as a beveraee in nlace of coffee and tea their mental and physicial con dition would be much improved."

There are two things to do for any form of neuralgia. Apply heat to the affected part to soothe the pain, and feed the nerves by taking a tonic con taining the elements needed by them. Heat, as afforded by hot flannel, hot water bags, etc., lulls the inflamed nerves into temporary quiet. It does not cure. Not until the nutrition of the nerves is restored will the inflam mation subside. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills furnish to the blood the needed elements and the blood conveys them to the nerves. The only way of getting food or medi cine to the nerves Is through the blood. Remember that. Neuralgia is a general term. It means inflammation of a nerve. It is given different names according to the nerve affected. Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatic nerve. Application of heat will soothe the pain in all forms of neuralgia and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will correct the condition that caused it. Your own druggist sells Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills and tlie Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., will send you a little book on "Home Treat ment of Nervous Dlsordors" for the asking.—Advertisement.
