A Tan Nurse d scOvsred I;s Effect

No one is in better position to know
the value of food and drink than
trained nurse.
Speaking Of coffee a nurse of Wilkes
Barre Pa, writes: Il used to drink
strong coffee myself and suffered great
ly from headaches and Indigestion.
While on a visit to my brothers had
good chance to try Postum Food Cot
fee, for they drank it altogether ia
place of ordinary coffee. In two weeks,
after using Postum, I found I was
much benefited and finally my head
aches disappeared and also the indiges-
ton.
Naturally have since used Postum
among my patients and have noticed a
marked benefit where coffee has been
left off and Postum used.
81 observe a curious fact about Pos
tum used among mothers. 1t greatly
helps the flow of milk in cases where
coffee is inclined to dry it up, and
where tea causes nervousness.
II find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly. They most al
ways serve it before it has been boiled
long enough 1t should be boiled Is or
20 minutes and served with cream,
when It is certainly a delicious bever-
age"
There's reason" for Postum.
