A Manila cablegram under date of

hs increased the constabulary force
in the island of Leyte and has ordered

and situation there. The making of
highway robbery a capital crime has
been translated into the 'various dia
lects of the islands, and the constab
ulary is circulating copies of the law
throughout the districts infested by
ladronlsm. The government is desir
ous of warning the bandits before car
rying out the new law."

A cahlegram from Vienna, dated No
vember 23, says that after several
months' negotiation the Austrian and
Hungarian iron and steel industries
have formed a combination comprising
23 separate establishments and with
an aggregate capital of $70,000,000.
This agreemont Is to be effective until
June 3, 1912. The cablegram goes on
to say that it is anticipated that this
organization will result In great im
provement in the industrial situation,
which Is now unsatisfactory, partic
ularly in the engineering, locomotive
ana wagon works branches. Of 20,000
locomotive workmen In Vienna, 8,000
are reported recently discharged. This
has resulted in a large Immigration,
particularly from the iron works dis
trict of Bohemia. The general situa
tion, however, Is likely to Improve
shortly when extensive public works,
including the construction of canals
and railroad bridges, will bo begun.
These public works in Austria will,
it Is estimated, cost $75,000)000, and
in Hungary $37,000,000.

Recent developments in the treaty
relations of the United States and Co-'
lombla in regard to the Panama canal
route show a disposition on the part of
Colombia to ignore all propositions
made by this country and as a result
all negotiations have co.me to a stop.
Although this is interpreted, as lieing
a means of bringing into prominence
the Nicaraguan route it is reported
that that country is not willing; to
make any definite plans until It is con
vinced that tho negotiations with Co
lombia are entirely off. According to
the news dispatches it is said that the
latest point with regard to the Pana
ma route is that the original conces

been suggested that the Colombian

Coffee serves some people in a most
atrocious manner.
"I was a veritable coffee fiend, un
til finally my stomach rebelled at the
treatment and failed to work," writes
a gentleman from New York.
"I had dyspepsia In Its worst form;'
blind, staggering headaches with ver
tigo about a half hour after each time
I ate, and I finally grew so weak and
became so thin that my mother ad-,
vised me to stop coffee and try Pos
tum Food Coffee.
I did not like It at first,, but after
experimenting in making it, Mother
soon got it just right, and I then
liked it better than coffee.
I soon noticed my billlousness
stopped and I lost the trembling effect
on my nerves; Postum did not stim
ulate me but seemed to exhilarate. I
gradually regained my wonted good
health; my .old appetite returned,
and today I am well dyspepsia, head
ache and vertigo all gone, and Postum
did it -
When I began its use, I had been
troubled for two years with all kinds
of stomach trouble. I became a ver
itable walking apothecary shop, Tmt
I have not taken a dose of medicine
slnco I commenced using ' Postum."
