A Husband,s Question.

When a man, from drinking coffee,
gets to such a condition that. he cannot
eat breakfast without throwing it up,
it seems time to quit, but there are
thousands of people who do not under
stand that when an article Of food or
drink produces such conditions as
these, it should be absolutely left off.
A little woman out in Mont. writes
that she and her husband knew enough
to quit coffee when it had raped them
hard. She says: my husband was so
badly affected that he ate no breakfast
for three or four years. He would Of
ten try to drink a few sips of coffee
and invariably threw it up.
When Postum Food Coffee was
brought to my attention / tried it
without having any faith in 1t, but
when I found what q delicious bey-
erage it was when prepared according
to directions, and from trying 1t on
myself found there were no bad eff
fects, l induced husband to axe a cup
without telling him what it was. He
objected at first, saying that he would
be sure to throw 1t up, but when |
insisted upon his trying it, it agreed
| with him.
Morning after morning I gave him
Postum without telling him hat it was
any different from ordinary coffee. His
stomach quickly recovered and he be-
gan to eat breakfast. He asked me one
morning as he called for a second cup
what witch had taught me TO make
such delicious coffee and where l
found some that would agree with
him9 Then l told him for the first
time that he a not been drinking
coffee but Postum, which had Sc
strengthened his stomach that he
could now eat as much breakfast as
any one.

bled with stomach disorder but after
