SAYS COFFEE DRINKERS HAVE REAL DRUG HABIT Physician Declares Food Value Nil and People Use it Only for Stimulation. That many people are slaves to tea and coffee appears from a_statement of Dr. C. J. Douglass, of Dorchestes, Mass. “They do not distinguish the difference between drugs and food in their effect on the system. “There is no substitute for an enslaying drug. 'When the effect of one dose has worn off, another dose of the same drug must be taken or discomfort follows, but if nutrition is wanted, a hundred different foods will supply the demand with equally sat- isfactory results. “Tea and coffee are never taken be- cause of any small nutritive element they may contain, Some drink them in small quantities morely because the taste is agreeable, or to wash down solid food. “On the other hand, if a suffictent quantity s habitually taken, so that when they are discontinued, un- comfortable symptoms follow, then it is evident that a drug habit has been formed. “If, for example, a person habltually drinks so much ooffes for breakfast that en omitting it he 'misses some- thing' during the forencon, he may be sel down as an excessive coffee drinker, Ha is relying on the stimu- lation of the drug, caffeine, and the delly use of any drug for such a pur- pose 1s injurieus.” NOTE—The food-drink INSTANT POSTUM while much resembling the highest grades of Jarva ocoffee in flavor and appearance ls absolutely free from the coffee drugs ‘caffeine’ and ‘“tannin’ or any other harmful In- gredient. Recent decrease in coffee sales is very generally attributed to the growing American custom of using Postum as a table beverage instead of coffee. Neighboring City.

The wheel is one that is used by the drug store for delivery purposes and when its loss was reported Chief Lin- ton obtained a description of a young fellow who had been seen hanging around the neirhborhood of the store. It was also learned that a person an- swering the description had been seen on West Thames street riding a wheel towards New London and the police of that city were told to look out for him. They located him about 8 o'clock riding the wheel on Williams street and telephoned to Captain D. J. Two- mey after they had taken the young man into custody. Meanwhile Cap- taln Twomey had dispatched Police- man Thomas Murphy to ride down on a Montville trolley car with the ex- pectation that he might see the miss- ing wheel along the way.

FY i esting report read Carter, of the conventi n recently held in Waterbury, the mesting closed with an earnest prayver by Mrs. Strouse. In her report on the which was the 19th annual state con- vention ani was held October Sth and 9th, Miss Carter spoke among other things of the review of the vear which was given by Mrs. W, H. Dawley of this city, the president, in which Mrs. Dawley told of her own attendance at the international convention at Detrait where it was decided to have a rest room at the Panama Exposition in California in 1915, the Circles will be asked to help furrish this room. The furniture will have to be bought unless specially donated, but such articles as sofa. pillows, face cloths, towels, soap. thread 2nd needles can be furnished by the Circle: Four exec e meetings have been heid during the year, and it was voted to appoint a committee to assist the Travelers Ald Society in this state. Tleven women were appointed to render aid to those who might need it It was also proposed by the Interna- tional President, Miss Morehouse, that each county should form one new circle and each circle should have one new member during the year. Mies Carter continued her conwen- tion report with quotations from the address upon Fighting Child K Labar, given by Miss Florence Taylor of the National Child Labor Committee, and the address of Mrs. C. Herbert Hor- ton, president of the New York state branch. She spoke on The Juniors_of the Order, of which there are 7,500 members. She asked the question: who will do the work of the King’s Paughters in the future if the children are not trained to do it. It is the King’s busniess, it is your business and it is my Lusiness to see that the children are prepared to take our placa in the future. Whenever any work is to be done the children should do all they can, they are alwaysready to help if something is given them to do. The next thing is to have a good leader for them, but all cannot lead children. Don’t refuse to help them, because you think they do not realize what it is to be a King’s Daughter. Do you understand all about the work? Have no rules but organize a junior circle and let the respomsibility come on the children; let them appoint their own officers, and make all you can for they love office, but don’'t do their work for them, if you do they soom tire of it and in a few years they drop out. Other addresses which Miss Carter reported were by Miss Clara More- house, general secretary of the imter- national order, upon The Vision Beautiful; and of Mrs. C. Herbert Horton of New York upon The Mes- sage of the Arbutus. b Mrs, George Gllbert of Litchfield county told of an old lady who was leader of a circle in Torringion.
