TRANSFORMATIONS.
Curious Results when Coffee Drink

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use of coffee as II is for
q whiskey or tobacco fleud to break off,
except that the coffee user can quit coffee
and take up Postum Food Coffee with
out any feeling of a loss of the morning
and served with cream, 1t Is really better
IN joint of flavor than most OF the coffee
served nowadays. and TO the taste of the
connoi ;seur it is like the favor of fine
Java.
A great transformation takes place in
the body within tea days or two weeks
after coffee is left off and Postum Food
Coffee used for the reason that the poison
to the nerves has been discontinued and
in IT'S place is taken liquid that contains
the most powerful elements of nourish-
ment.
1t is easy to make this test and prove
these statements by changing from coffee
to Postum Food Coffee.

The same words that fairly and accu-

are boldly used to exploit connections that

pended on the label and wrapper than on
what is put into the bottles. Persons who
try this remedy and that, IN .he foolish
hope that they may hit on he right one
by chance, and at any rate it can do
them no harm, should know that they
are doing their system incalculable mis-
chief and putting off the day of complete
recovery by such experimenting.
Paine's Celery Compound must not be
