BOTH JAWS SHOT AWAY
Still a Successful Business Man.

A man who had both jaws shot away had trouble eating ordinary food but found food-drink that supplies the nutriment needed. He says:
 Il have been an invalid since the siege of VicksburS, in 1S66, where was wounded by a Mimic ball passing through my head and causing the en- tire loss of my jaws. Twas a drummer boy and at the time was leading a skir- mish line. carrying gun. Since that time l have been awarded the medal Of honor from the Congress of the United States for gallantry on the field.
 The consequences of my wound were dyspepsia in it's most aggravated form and l finally proved ordinary cof- fee was very hard on my stomach so tried Postum and got better. Then tried common coffee again and got worse l did this several times and finally as Postum helped me every time l continued to use il. and how often l think that if the Governmen, had issued Postum to Us in the Army how much better it would have been for the soldier boys than coffee.
 Coffee constipates me and Postum does not; coffee makes me spit up my food, Postum does not; coffee keeps me awake nights, Postum does not. There is no doubt coffee is too much of a stimulant for most people and is the cause of nearly all the constipation.
 This is my experience and you a,e at liberty to use my name" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
