and bad the samo trouble come on.
"One day I told a friend about It, who
said it I would stop drinking coffee alto
gether I would feel better, and advised me
to use Postum Food Coffee In Its place.
"I tried the Postum, but did not like It.
bo I told him about It and be said I didn't
cook it right; that is, didn't boil It enough
nnd that I should use cream Instead ot

Judge Jones of the state circuit court
yesterday rendered a declrlon In tho
matter of tho disqualification cf County
Judge Wilkes from acting further
In the disposition of the estate of John Mc
Clellan, holding that such disqualification

was the attorney on a contingent fee of

Judge Jones In bis decision holds that
there Is not sufficient evidence to sustain
