Prevent
pneumonia

Prevention is always better than
cure, even when cure is possible.
But so many times pneumonia is not
cured that prevention becomes the
natural act of that instinct of self
preservation which is 1.-THE first law
of nature" Pneumonia can be pre-
vented and is often cured by the use
of Ayers Cherry Pectoral.
"Some years ago had severe cold and
was threatened with pneumonia. l could
neither eat nor sleep, and was in wretohed
condition. ! procured bottle OF Ayers
Cherry Pectoral and took II according to the
directions and at the end of fifteen daysw as
as well and sound as before the attack. |
have recommended it in many cases OF pneu-
monia since, anu have never known 1t TO tan
IN efecting cure.'
JOHN HENRY, st. Joseph, La
Il was attacked with cold that settled
on my lungs, and Gefed the skill of my ply
sicians so that they considered me incuraole.
AT last | began to use Ayers Cherry Peetorai
and was entirely cured after having taken
two bottles"

The record-union., 1898-11-08

and at breakfast Mrs. Highly handed
me a lovely cup Of coffee with the re-
mark Did you ever realize that it is
not at all consistent for temperance
people to continually advise others TO
avoid poisonous stimulants, and yet day
by day drink such articles themselves?
This is particularly true Of coffee, which
is one of the most powerful narcotics
in existence, although its effects are not
shown as actively as whisky"
I was rather surprised at her remark,
but after thinking 1t over a moment, I
realized that it was apropos. I had
noticed many a case of nervous pros
tration that was directly traceable to
coffee, for the individuals at once be-
gan to improve when they left off cof-
fee, and I had found it so in my own
experience.
I had made several attempts to
break away from the habit, and bad
failed, much to my disgust, and, often
times, when addressing an audience
on the evils Of liquor drinking, 7 had
in my own heart felt that I was very
much like an old topper, the only differ
ence being that I wanted coffee and
he wanted liquor.
Mrs. Highly went on to say, 1--WE
have abandoned coffee entirely in our
family, and are using the Postum
Cereal Food Coffee made down at Bat
tie Creek. Mich, and think when you
drink this cup, you will agree with me
that it is in many respects a more de-
licious beverage than ordinary coffee,
for it has smoother, more fascinat-
ing taste. much like the very highest
grade Of mild Java"
I drank the cup slowly and realized
that her remarks were true, and I want
to say TO you that I gained no more
valuable knowledge at that convention
in Wyoming than that which I learned
at the breakfast table where I had my
first cup of Postum. have since used
1t regularly, very greatly TO my physi-
cal and mental advantage, and have
found no difficulty whatever in doing
away with coffee. No one can tell
how glad l am to be free from its bane-
full effects. I can now make a tenn
perance address with a clear con-
science, and, perhaps, I might add
clearer complexion than formerly.
