SMALL MONEY.
What a Quarter Did.

The person who uses the brain and
nerves actively needs food to rebuild
them and replace the waste, and should
not rest on stimulants. Coffee excites
these organs so they cannot get the
necessary rest and nourishment and
steadily tears them down, then other
disorders follow.
Il am under a constant nervous
strain as | have fifty-two girls under
my care" writes a school teacher from
Knoxville, Tenn.
Il suffered terribly with indigestion
n nervousness in its worst form, and
paid out hundreds of dollars in doc
tors bills. Many of my friends advised
me to quit coffee and use our Postum
Food Coffee, and | tasted it once and
1t was something horrible, Some time
later met a friend who wished me TO
try a cup of Postum and her manner
was so convincing that | finally tasted
the Postum to please her. Great was
