Coffee can marshall a good squad
ron Of enemies and some very hard

writes:
IT have always been very fond Of
good coffee, and for years drank it at
least three times day. At last, how
ever, I found that it was injuring me.
II became bilious, subject to frequent
and violent headaches, and so very
nervous that could not lift spoon to
my mouth without splitting a part of its
contents; my heart got 'rickety' and
beat so fast and so hard that I could
scarcely breathe, while my skin got
thick and dingy, with yellow blotches
on my face, caused by the condition of
my liver and blood. made up my
mind that all these Affections came
from the coffee and I determined to ex-
pertinent and see.
$50 quit coffee and got a package
Of Postum which furnished my hot
morning beverage. After little time
l was rewarded by complete restor-
alton of my health in every respect. I
do not suffer from biliousness any
more, my headaches have disappeared,
my nerves are as steady as could be
desired, my heart beats regularly and
my complexion has cleared up beauti-
fully-the blotches have been wiped out
and 1t Is such pleasure to be we'll
