Teachers Learn Something Not Tn The

 Class Books.
 A number of young women attending a, teachers convention at Oklahoma City some time ago learned valuable lesson in hygiene through a sister teacher who says, About year ago I had my first attack of poor health and it seemed terrible thing to me, for I had always been so well and strong. My stomach distressed me ter ribly; 1t seemed like it was raw, espec- ially after breakfast, and it would burn and hurt me so could not rest. was soon convinced that it was caused by coffee drinking, and at the request of a friend I gave up coffee and began to use Postum Coffee.
 .The change in my condition was something marvellous. I had actually given up teaching because doctors were unable to help my stomach trouble, but since I quit coffee and used Postum my troubles have disappeared and have gone to teaching again.
 Some time ago I attended a. conven- ton at Oklahoma City and determined to have Postum at my clearinghouse where there were eight other teachers, -four of them suffering from coffee sick ness My landlady. did not make the Postun right but I showed her how and we all found it delicious. We all drank it the rest of the time we were there, and the young ladies in question felt much better and declared that their heads were much clearer for study and their general health much improved. I have their names if you care for them' Names furnished by Postum Go, Battle Creek. Mich.
