KNOWS HOW
Doctor Had Been Over the Road.
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."
