INSIDE H
Some Facts Made Known.

1t is often thought hat grocers real
ly have very little care regarding the
food value of the articles they sell, but
the real facts are that grocery keepers
of the right sort are extremely particu-
lar as to what they recommend.
One of the fraternity relates a tale.
The highest priced coffee on the mar
ket I introduced to my customers and
used myself. I began to have bilious
attacks and after a little observation
attributed them directly to coffee.
Every time 1 left off drinking it I got
better, but felt the need of a warm
drink for breakfast.
along in 90 a wholesale grocer urged
me to put in some Postum Food Coffee
in my store, which l did with consider
able misgiving, for, at hat time, the
now famous Postum was not so well
known.
He urged me to try it myself, which
1 did and was disguised with the fiat,
tasteless beverage, so was my wife. l
remembered the wholesale grocer said
something about following directions
carefully, so I took the package and
studied it. I at once discovered that we
had not boiled it long enough, only
three or four minutes, but it must be
boiled fifteen minutes at least, so we
tried it again, with the result that we
got a perfect cup of coffee, a delightful
and healthful beverage. 1 have contin-
ued the use of Postum In my home ever
since. We use it for breakfast, dinner
and supper.
my bilious attacks quickly left and I
am free from them altogether. I began
to explain to my customers something
of tn avel ofeufg koii ifii.ltalv hlimb
of the value of Postum Coffee and now
have a very large trade on it." Name
