COFFEE DOES TT.
Facts not Generally Believed

It is curious to watch coffee topper and observe how he or she will resist all suggestions as to coffee being the cause of their various ailments.
 They will charge the coated tongue and bilious condition to something they have eaten, likewise the wretched con- dition of the bowels and the palpitation of the heart. The sallow complexion is generally attributed to naturally bill ious" temperament.
 But once in while person wakes up and throws off coffee entirely, then the truth begins to appear, and it is an easy job to make this change If Postum Food Coffee is taken in place of coffee.
 A man in West Plains, Mo, writes, "As the coffee habit grew on me my health declined in the same ratio. was subject to nervousness, constipation, dyspepsia, and a general weak feeling which made me unfit for business, and finally I became so nervous and thor oughly broken down that l could not attend to business and turned every thing over to my assistant and went to the mountains in Colorado hoping to find health in a change Of climate, but after six months sojourn I came back in worse condition than I left.
 A friend insisted that l quit coffee and try Postum and although I did not believe it was the cause of my ill health I consented to try the new coffee. l bought q package and Wife prepared it strictly according to directions and I was wonderfully pleased to find it so delicious and refreshing: the quitting of coffee was a pleasure rather than task.
 ' have now been drinking Postum for over a year and my health has steadily improved: the nervousness and dy- spepsia have entirely disappeared. I have gained % pounds in weight and feel at least, ten years younger than I did year ago.
 Many of my freds have quit coffee and are using Postum and I do not know of a single one who has not been benefited. Some of these did not like Postum at first but in every case l found the cause to have been not haV- ing it boiled long enough. The direc- tions are easy enough to follow, and when followed a delicious beverage is the result. but some sloVenly cooks put it on to boil for five or ten minutes, but that does not make good Postum. After the real bubbing or boiling has begun it should be allowed to boil at least 15 minutes" Name given by Postum Co.,, 1 Battle Creek, Mich.
