FRIENDLY TIP Restored Hope and Confidence.

After several years of indigestion and it's attendant evil influence on the mind it is not very surprising that one finally loses faith in things generally.
 N. Y. woman writes an interest ing letter. She says:
 Three years ago I suffered from an attack of peritonitis which left me in most miserable condition For over two years I suffered from ner- vOusness, weak heart, shortness of breath, could not sleep, etc.
 My appetite was ravenous but ] felt starved all the time. I had plenty of food but it did not nourisH me because of intestinal indigestion Medical treatment did not seem tc help, I got discouraged, stopped med icine and did not care much whether lived or died.
 "One day q friend asked me why didn't try Grape Nuts, stop drinking coffee and use Postum. I had lost faith in everything, but to please my friends I began to use both and soon became very fond of them.
 Tt wasn't long before I got some strength, felt a decided change in my system, hope spring up in my heart and slowly but surely I got better. could sleep very well, the constant craving for food ceased and I have better health now than before the attack of peritonitis.
 My husband and I are still using Grape Nuts and Postum." There's 6 Reason"
