DES MOINES, Nov. 25. (Spoclal.)-Th? state canvassing board, consisting of the governor, auditor of state, trfasurer of state and secretary of state, made the can vass of the votes cast at .the late election, other than for governor and lieutenant gov ernor. The returns as they were opened and spread upon the books showed that there wero no mlstnkes and that all coun ties had been properly reported, so that thore will be no delay In computing the re sults. The hoard, In addition to canvas sing those for Judge of the supreme oourt, rnllrond commissioner nnd superintendent ot public instruction, counted tho votes In legislative districts where more than one county Is copccrncd, and In Judicial dis tricts. The only point of Interest was the count In the Cass-Sholby senatorial dis trict. The returns from tho counties showed as follows: J. M. Emmert (dem.), Cass, 2,156; Shelby, 1,885; total, 4,041. James C. Bruce (rep.), Cass, 2,185; Shelby, 1,855; total, 4,041. Tho certificate will be Issued to Emmert, who thus wins by 1 majority, but Bruce Is prepared to maku a contest be foro the legislature and may secure the seat, as It Is averred that he will be able to show that many votes wore counted for Emmert that should not havo been counted at all. There were two Judicial elections In tho state, nnd In neither ono was there any contest. R. L. Parrlsh was elected In the Third district to succeed Judge Tedford, re signed, and J. II. Richard was elected In the Eleventh district to succeed Judgo Weaver, who was promoted to the supreme bench. The canvass of the vote on tho minor offi cers of state showed that the republican cnndldatc for supreme Judgo ran ahead ot the republican candidate for governor a total of 512; tho democratic candidate for Judgo ran ahead ot tho democratic candi date for governor 406; the prohibition can didate for Judge ran behind the prohibition candidate for governor 3,467; the socialist candidate for Judge ran behind tho socialist candidate for governor 166 and the pop ulist candldato for Judgo lacked sixty ot receiving as many as the populist candidate for governor. Thus tho minor parties wero strongest on the head of the ticket. The re publican plurality on Judge was 83,290. Tho vote on Judge of tho supreme court wai: Silas M.

Any brain worker who depends on thought for his success in life, uses up daily, by brain work, a varying amount of tho delicate particles of potash and albumen, of which the brain and ncrvo centers aro composed. This breaking" down of tho little cells each day, from brain work, is a na'tural process, and the cells can readily bo rebuilt from tho right sort of food, if the system is not interfered with by drugs. If brain fag or nervous prostration sets in, tho evidence is plain that nature is not rebuilding as fast as work is tearing down. There is nomo reason. What is it ? Look first to tho coffee cup, for coffeo ia known to interfere with and prevent the proper nourishment of the nerves in highly organized people. Frequently the trouble first shows in dyspepsia, lack of power of tho bowels to bperato properly or palpitation of the heart or some other lack of vitality and healthy vigor. Then comes brain fag and that tremendous collapse called nervous prostration. There is but ono thing for a sensible man or woman to do, quit coffeo absolutely. 11 Hard to do," you say.

You will havo become free from the breaking down force of coffee, and, pn the other hand, you will be taking a powerful, nourishing liquid food which quickly rebuilds' the new cells. These are facts, profound facts, ready for anyone to prove to their own satisfaction by actual use.
