But they doge the issue and talk about flavour. Proof lies in the fact that some coffee concerns have tried, without success, to rid coffee of its caffeine. : Daily blows of this coffee-drug finally result for most people, in nervousness, headache, heart fluiter or some other form of caffeine poisoning. ¢ =~ You may not think coffee hurts you, but io be sure, quit coffee ten days and use the pure food-drink— POSTUM It is made of wheat and a bit of wholesome mo- lasses. The tasty, Java-like flavour makes the change easy as well as beneficial—and there’s no drug cr other harmful element in Postum. There are two forms of Postum: Postum Cereal— the original form—must be boiled—135c¢ and 25c pkgs. Instant Postum—the soluble form—is made in the cup with hot water, instantly—30c and 50c tins. The cost per cup is about the same for both kinds. - “There’s a Reason” for Postum Sold by Groce’rs everywhere. | | Memorial for their annual reunion. WILLIAM CARUTHERS. President of the 18th C. V.

All the olq soldiers wore badges consist- ing of a shield with a picture of the pitol at Washington, with red. white and blue streamers underneath. On the streamers were the words, 47th an- eunion of the 18th Connecticut | Association, Norwich, Connecticut, August 18th.

Referring to his meeting Comrade Hovey during Mr. Hovey's recent J. W. Martin of Los Angeles regretted that Mr. Hovey was unable to remain with him longer. Mr. Martin vividly remembers the scenes of half a century ago. He resided in Norwich for a good part of his life. Bound to the Hoosier Soil, A highly interesting letter was that received from J. H. Sawver of the In- dianna State Soldiers’ home at Lafa- yette. Mr. Sawyer said he would have liked to be present with his com- rades but that fate binds him to the Hoosier soil. He says he often thinks of the way the soldiefs pictured their home coming fifty vears ago and of the way they expected to be received by the people of Norwich on their ar- rival here. Instead all were paid off in Hartford and as soon as each man got his pay he made for the railroad station without waiting to shake hands with his comrades. Mr. Sawvyers name was near the end of tRe list and like the rest, as soon as he got his pay, he left without ceremony for the rail- road depot. Mr. Sawyer went on his wedding trip in 1869 and sailed from New Lon- don on the City of Boston which was the same vessel that transported the 18th to New York three years pre- vious. Mr. Sawyer spoke of meeting General Ely in Brooklyn in 1888. Pre- viously he saw one of the ferryboats used in Virginia during the war, ply- ing about New York harbor. He Wwrote that-the battlefield of Tippe- noe lies but a short distance from his home. The land, covering ten acres, is owned by the state. There is a monument on the battlefield and stones mark the separate graves. A number of oid cannon still remain_on the field. The battle was fought Nov. 5. 1511 and Mr. Sawyer tells of the dedication of the field in 1911. Mr. Sawyer went to the front gwith the regiment under Captain Th#mas K. Bates. He enlisted from Woodstock Will Use Eighth Corps Badges. It was voted to use the Sth army corps badze at reunions hereafter, upon motion of Comrade Babson. This badge is in the shape of a six pointed star surmounted by an easle. C| H_ Lynch of Hartford said give the association a cut of the badge. Mr. Lynch has been an en- gineer in.the plant of a big printing house in Hartford for the ars. He takes much interest in the A. R Cigars from Ex-Mayor Osgood. Secretary Hovey announced that 100 good ciga ad been presented the reunion by Former Mayor F. L. Os- €ood, repeating his gift of last vear. A vote of thanks was passed in rec- ognition of Mr. Osgood's kindness. Deaths Since Last Reunion. The list of deaths received since the t reunion was read as follows by Secretary Hovey: Ralph W.
