ROSY COLOR.
Produced by Postum Food Coffee.

when a person rises from each meal
with a ringing in the ears and gen
eral sense of nervousness. it is a COM
mon habit to charge it to deranged
stomach.
Il found it was caused from drink
ing coffee, which / never suspected for
a long time. but found by leaving off
coffee that the disagreeable feelings
went away.
II was brought to think Of the sub
ject by getting some Postum Food
Coffee. and this brought me out Of the
trouble.
1T is a most appetiZing and invigOr-
ating beverage and has been of such
great benefit to me that I naturally
speak of it from time to time as op-
portunity offers.
"A lady friend complained to me that
she had tried Postum, but it did not
taste good. In reply to my question
she said she guessed she boiled it about
10 minutes. / advised her to follow
directions and know that she boiled it
15 or 20 minutes, and she would have
something worth talking about.
short time ago l heard one of her chill
dren say that they were drinking Pos
tum now a-days. so l judge she sue
ceeded in making it good. which is by
no means a difficult task.
Tom O'Brien. the son of n friend
who lives on Bridge St. was formerly
pale lad. but since he has been
drinking Postum. has fine color.
There is plenty of evidence that Pos
tum actually does make red blood.
