Not every one has the sound, sturdy

truth about themselves. The follow

She says: Il was a coffee drinker
and gradually became more and more
irritable and v in the school
room. My complexion was sallow and
sickly, and as l look back now know
I developed into a very unpopular and
disagreeable person. In fact had lit
tie prospect of keeping my position
last year. Not only that but | failed to
pass the required examinations. This
latter fact aroused me to the knowl-
edge that coffee was d%eadening my
brain and slowly destroying memory
and reason.
my sister had quit the use of coffee
in her family and adopted Postum, and
had been strongly urging that | do like
wise. One day | started in, that was a
red letter day for me. | began sleep
ing sound at night instead of lying
awake half the time, and the change
in my feelings from nervousness and
%irritability to comfort, peace and con
tent cannot be told in words.
Il had been trembling, broken down,
nervous, and | felt an ugly, old maid,
but after my restful sleep, increased
strength of brain and body instead of
weakness and illness, | slowly changed
in my whole appearance. Began to
plump up, my complexion changed
from a sallow, muddy looking skin to
a fresh pink and white, as nice as
when | was IS.
Il took another examination and
passed it easily. My high grades. to-
gether with the improved work in the
school and my changed character

reputation for good sense, or for some
other reason, one of the best citizens
