UnIuoky Number for Dakota Woman.
The question whether the number
"13" is really more unlucky than any
other number has never been entirely
settled in everyone's mind.
A So. Oak. woman, after thirteen
years Of misery from drinking coffee,
found way to break the 'unlucky
spell" She writes:
For thirteen years I have been a
nervous wreck from drinking coffee.
My liver, stomach, hearth fact, my
whole system being actually poisoned
by it.
Last year I was confined to my bed
for six months. Finally it dawned on
me that coffee caused the trouble. Then
began using Postum instead of or
binary coffee, but with little faith, as
my mind was in such a condition that
I hardly knew what to do next.
Extreme nervousness and failing
eyesight caused me to lose all cour-
age. In about two weeks after l quit
coffee and began to us Postum, was
able to read and my head felt clear.
