LIGHT BREAKS IN.
Thoughtful Farmer Learns About
Coffee.

MANY people exist In more or less
hazy condition, and it often takes
years before they realize the cause of
the cloudiness, and that there is a
simple way to let the light break in
A worthy farmer had such an ex-
perience and tells about it in letter.
He says;
For about forty years ] have had
Indigestion and stomach trouble in
various forms. During the last %
wears would not more than get over
one spell of bilious collie until another
would be on me.
THE best doctors / could get and
all the medicines [ could buy, only
gave me temporary relief.
Change of climate was tried with
ont results. [ could not sleep nights,
had rheumatism and my heart would
palpitate at times so that it seemed
il would jump out of my body.
II came to the conclusion that
there was no relief for me and that
was about wound up. when | saw a
Postum advertisement. I had always
been a coffee drinker, and got an idea
from the ad that maybe coffee was
the cause of my trouble.
~ began TO drink Postum instead Of
coffee and in less than three weeks
felt like a new man. The rheumatism
left me. and | have never had a spell
of bilious collie since.
My appetite is good, my digestion
never was better and l can do more
work than before for 40 years.
Il haven't tasted coffee since l be
gan with Postum. My wife makes i
according to directions and | relish i
as we'll as | ever did coffee. and
was certainly a slave to coffee.
