When a doctor, who has been the victim of the coffee habit, cures him. self by leaving off coffee and taking Postura Food Coffee, he knows some thing about what he Is advising In that line. A good old doctor In Ohio, who hhd at one time been the victim of the cof fee habit, advised a woman to leave off coffee and take on Postum. She suffered from Indigestion and a weak and Irregular heart and general nervous condition. She thought that It would be difficult to atop coffee ab ruptly. She says: “I had considerable hesitancy about-making the change, ohe reason being that a friend of mine tried Postum and did not like It. The doctor, however, gave explicit directions that Postum must be boiled long enough to bring out the flavor and food value. "His suggestions were carried out and the delldoue beverage fascinated ny» so that I hastened to Inform my friend who had rejected Postum. She Is now using it regularly, after she found that it could be made to taste good. "I observed, a short time after start ing Postum, a decided change in my nervous system. I could sleep soundly, and my brain was more active. My complexion became clear, and rosy, whereas. It had been muddy and spotted before; In fact, all. of the' abnormal symptoms disappeared and I am now feeling perfectly well, "Another friend was troubled Ip much the same manner as L and she has re covered from her heart and stomach trouble by leaving off co(fee and using Postum Food Coffee. "I know of several others who have had much the name experience. It Is only necessary that Postum be v.ell boiled and It wlna Its own way." •There’s a Reason." Read "The Itoad o Wellvllie," In pkgs.
