low the children to drink any kind of
coffee, but she said Postum was the
most healthful drink in the world for
children as well as for older ones, and
that the condition of both the children
and adults showed that to be fact.

cook boiled it four or five minutes and
it tasted so fiat that / was in despair
but determined to give it one more
trial. This time we followed the di-
rections and boiled it fifteen minutes
after the boiling began. 1t was de-
cided success and 1 was completely
won by its rich delicious favour. In a
short time / noticed decided i'm
provement in my condition and kept
