An old soldiers wife described her coffee
experience as follows: Ny husband and
l have been accustomed TO the use OF tea
and coffee for very great many years
and We were very fond of the coffee.
Some time ago We received from a
dear friend in St Louis a Christmas box
that included a package of Postum. I
prepared some without reading direc-
lions and NY husband said o nonsense.
this tastes Just like the crust water
that was one Of the luNuries they allowed
TO invslidS 50 years ago. Then I looked
up the directions. made the Postum as
it should he made and We both found it
delicious
My husband is a broken-down soldier
and was dyspeptic and suffered from
severe headaches but from the time We
commenced TO drink Postum we have not
taken cup Of tea or coffee. During the
hot w-aJhcr We have eaten no meat.
depending for food upon Grspe-Nuts My
dear husbands headaches have disap-
peared since We left of the coffee and
began Postum. and I md myself men
tally stronger and much better able to
concentrate my thoughts than for several
years past. Husband mas a good appetite
now and nothing diSturbs his stomach.
