Why Is 8ugar Sweet?
If sugar did not dissolve In the mouth
you could not taste the sweet. GROVE'S
TASTELESS CHILL TONIC is as
strong as the strongest bitter tonic/ but
you do not taste the bitter because the
Ingredients do not dissolve in the
mouth, but do dissolve readily In the
acldB of the stomach. Is just as good
for grown people as for children. The

WHAT’S THE USE?
To Pour In Coffee When it Acts as a
Vicious Enemy.
Fosters have gone without food for
many days at a time, but no one can
go without sleep. "For a long time I
have not been sleeping well, often lying
awake for two or three hours during
the night, but now I sleep sound every
night and wake up refreshed and vlg
oroua," says a Calif, woman.
“Do you know why? It's because I
used to drink coffee, but I finally cut It
out and began using Poatum. Twice
since then I have drank coffee and
both times I passed a sleepless night,
and ao I am doubly convinced coffee
caused the trouble and Postum re
moved It.-
My brother was In the habit ot
drinking coffee three times a day. He
was troubled with sour stomach and
I would often notice him getting soda
from the can to relieve the distress in
his stomach; lately hardly a day
passed without a dose of soda for re
lief.
"Finally he tried a cup of Postum
and liked It so well he gave up coffee
and since then has been drinking Post-
um In Its place and says he has not
once been troubled with sour stomach.’’
Even after this lady’s experience with
coffee her brother- dM n-1 suspect for a
time that coffee was nosing hia sour
stomach, but easily proved It.
Coffee Is net suspected In thousands
of cases Just like this, but It’s easily
proved. A ten days’ trial works won
ders. "There's a Reason.”
