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 in place
of ordinary coffee. In two weeks, after
using Postum, found l was much bene
fitted and finally my headaches disappear
ed and also the Indigestion.
Naturally | have since used Postum
among by 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
soffee is inclined to dry it up, and where
tea causes nervousness.
81 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 ID or
20 minutes and served with cream, when
it is certainly delicious beverage"
There's a reason" for Postum.
