TURNED OUT TRUE.
Coffee Drinking Responsible.

AT dinner party number of years
ago a physician made this statement.
Coffee drinking is responsible for more
ills than any other one thing, but it is
impossible for me to make my patients
believe it,
Neither would believe him but con-
tinued to drink my coffee with sweet
content. After a time | became aware
of the fact that | was frequently lying
awake nearly all night without any APP
parent reason. and the morning found
me tired out and nervous.
The insomnia increased, then came
a dull pain At the base of the brain and
severe pressure at my heart. Ny out
side work was given up for / could
hardly bear the little fatigue of the
day. Nervous prostration brought on
by overwork. the Doctor said.
thought of the words of old DR.. Bag
ley, Coffee is the poison that is re-
sponsible.' etc. etc.
II had heard of Postum Food Coffee
and determined to try it, The first
cup was so weak and flat that it was
not fit to drink. The next time it was
prepared looked after it myself to see
that the directions We're followed prop
erly. The result was revelations: I
found it delicious beverage.
The cure was not wrought in a day
but little by little my nerves became
strong. the pain ceased, and again |
, could sleep ike a tired child.
Il am now completely restored TO
health by Postum Food Coffee used in
place of ordinary coffee, have regained
the fresh complexion of girlhood. and
can realize the truth of the old Doc
tors statement / wish people could
understand that truth before they
permit coffee TO break them down.
Il have known of several others who
have been restored to health by leav-
ing of coffee and taking up Postum
Food Coffee. Please do not publish
my name, but l am willing TO answer
letters of inquiry if stamp is inclosed.'
