709, by rare presence of mind, prevented the wrecking and piling up of cars this morning in the local Reading yards. A train in charge of a Western Maryland crew from Hagerstown. under Conductor Booze, had just left the Philadelphia, Harrisburg and Pittsburg bridge, when the spindle of a coke car, 1043. broke and the car immediately began to drag along the tracks, causing a wheel of the car preceding it to become loose. In the meantime the trucks of both cars had become loose and were badly twisted and as the train proceeded tore up the rails and roadbed in a lively manner.

Engineer Crego, perceiving the danger, cut his engine loose from 3 draft of cars and putting ou all steam possible ran to the front of the train and notified the engineer of the impending danger. The train was immediately stopped when the crew realized their danger. The work train was summoned from Boiling Springs and efforts made immediately to repair the damaged cars and put the tracks again in condition. Travel was suspended the meantime over the Philadelphia, Harrisburg and Pittsburg bridge for about five hours. The residents of South Tenth street, who reside along the tracks of the Philadelphia and Reading railway, were badly scared this morning, as they expected the cars to be piled up and fall over the embankment.

Old railroad men say it is surprising that a big wreck did not oeeur. as invariably when cars drag in such manner a general pile up is the result. FAKE INTERVIEWS WITH BAER. Railroad Men Here Claim That the Reading's New President le Not Talking. President George F.

It also affects the complexion, frequently bringing on heart disease in some cases. and stomach and bowel troubles are common with coffee drinkers. treated me very badly indeed. I could not have a good night's rest, and had not for five years. My eyes and complexion were duller than my Mother's, who was also a great coffee drinker.

Physicians told me I had acute kidney and bladder trouble. I was nervous alto the verge of hysteria, and my memory failed me. I had grown so thin I was little more than a shadow, and people were continually asking me how much younger my husband was than my. self. (So comforting to a woman.

you know). In truth he is five years my senior. Well, as a forlorn hope I left off of coffee and took up Postum Food Coffee about a year ago. I soon became so sleepy that I could scarcely stay awake long enough to take care of my baby. I did not realize that I was sleeping naturally and making up for lost time.

Finally I got pretty well 'slept the drowsiness dis. appeared and I felt a decided improvement in health. In 3 or 4 weeks I was quite well and only needed to regain my flesh and complexion. I waited very patiently for an improvement in these conditions but it was about five months before I was rewarded. then an almost instantaneous change took place, and my complexion became clear and rosy.

gained in weight quickly and friends and neighbors commented on the remarkable change. I have been constantly growing better and now am feeling in finer condition than ever before in my life. and I can surely say that I owe it all to leaving off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee. My sixteen-year-old sister, like myself, drank coffee from a child. For the last -four rears she was able to go to school only a part of the time.

and the doctor said she should not study at all. I induced her to quit coffee, and now her bright eyes and fresh, fair complexion show the result." It will be noticed that it took some months before this woman secured the result she wanted in the matter of complexion and flesh. The change from coffee produces a change in this particular within a month usually, but it is evident. in her case. that it required time to change corpuscles of the blood.
