People of Every Sort.

1t is wonderful how people in every
walk of life drink Moxie. Hundreds
of thousands of bottles of this favorite
beverage are sold annually. The dis
eliminating public must have learned
that Moxie, besides being delicious
and thirst quenching, is beneficial.
Many. physicians everywhere not
only advise their patients to drink
Moxie, but use it extensively in their
own families.
The prevailing idea is that Moxie,
because it nourishes and benefits the
nervous system, enables it's drinkers
to eat better, sleep better and feel
better at all times.
Business men and busy housewives
find that more work and better work
can be accomplished when they re-
fresh themselves occasionally with a
glass of delicious Moxie.
If you will keep a case Of Moxie III
the house at all times, you will find
that 1t is more than a luxury. The
good it does makes it pay to use it.

Improvement under Postum Food
Coffee, says:
1--WE have used Postum instead of
coffee for the past four years and have
been greatly benefited by the change.
Il have always had weak stomach
from childhood, and about five years
ago one doctor told me 1 must leave
off coffee entirely. 1 thought l could
not, but tried it for a few mornings,
using cocoa in its place, but tired Of
it.
Then 7 went back to coffee and
kept getting worse, until my stomach
was unable to hold or digest much Of
anything.
zone day l got hold of little book
let, THE Road to Wellville.' l read it
and decided to try Postum.
Il got better as time went on and
we all learned to like it SO well that
now we use it to the exclusion Of
everything else in the line of drink at
table.
This summer I went away for two
weeks and my husband took his meals
at the restaurant. AS he did not drink
coffee he asked for Postum. They
brought it to him, pale, weak stuff,
made in hurry.
But the first morning after I re-
turned home he said, oh, it seems
good to have a cup of Postum that's
made right. At the restaurant, he
said, they did not boil it long enough,
postum must be well boiled to get the
delicious fiavor-see directions).
Il would not use coffee again and go
back to the old days of suffering for
millions. l have a friend who drank
Postum for two weeks, during a siege
of typhoid fever, the only nourishment
she took in all that time, and she came
out all right l would be willing to
give $1.0O a box for Postum rather
than use coffee" Name given by
