A 'KNOCKER"
Pound on Many Tables.

People will slug themselves with
coffee and then hunt around for medl-
cine to cure them Of the trouble coffee
produces, but they keep on drinking cOf-
fee and making new trouble right
along. That is. some people do. There
are thoughtful people. however. and
their number is increasing every month
who prefer good, sturdy health to sick
ness, and they leave of coffee because
it contains a ug-caffeine-that pro-
duces disease.
Many people have to learn by hard
knocks. that this is true and they get
the knocks all right if they stick to eof-
fee.
A S. c. woman says: For two years
or moro before leaving OF coffee and
beginning the use of Postum Food Cof-
fee. my health became very much i'm
paired, as I discovered afterward, from
coffee drinking.
I suffered from shOTtness OF breath,
pains about the heart. and the slightest
exercise completely exhausted me Nv
digestion was bad and gas would form
in the stomach rendering me wretched,
and my life a burden. Medicine did not
help the trouble. 1 was at the point

I had the Postum we'll made and the

the old troubles left. ! have been n
excellent health. and my friends all
notice il and speak Of it. I never lose
an opportunity OF telling them that the
change IN my health was caused by
leaving of coffee and taking on the
liquid fcod-dTink Postum.
No argument from any source could
convince me to the contrary of what
