COFFEE DRINKING
\ Doctor Says it Weahcns the Heart

Tn my opinion" says well known German physician, mo one can truth fully say that coffee agrees with him. as it has long since been proven that caffeine, contained in coffee, is an in furious, poisonous substance which weakens and degenerates the heart muscles
 For this reason the regular use ot coffee, soon or late. causes condition of undernourishment, which leads to various kinds of organic disease.
 Convinced of this fact. l have oft en sought for some healthful beyer- age to use instead of coffee. At last l found the thing desired in Postum. Having had occasion to forbid people using coffee. whose hearts were affec-- ed, 1 have recommended Postum as a beverage. since it is free from all in jurious or exciting substances l EnoW this from results in my own family and among patients
 Hundreds If physicians who now use Postum in place of coffee, are greatly benefited thereby. There's a Reason

 Mrs. c. Allen of New Bedford Mass, writes: With two puny' ail- ing children, was very much worried. l had tried almost everything to build them up without success and, as a last resort, tried Vinol. The benent was geat in very short time, they gained flesh and strength so rapidly.
 The reason Vinol is SO far superior to old-fashioned cod liver oil, emul- sions and other tonics for children IS because Vinol is a delicious modern cod liver preparation without oil made by scientific attractive and concen- trating process from fresh cods' livers, combining with peptonate-of-iron all the medicinal, healing, body building clements of cod liver oil, but no oil and children love it. We ask parents in New Haven, Conn. who have deli cate children to try Vinol on our guar antee to return their money if it fails to give satisfaction. Hull's Corner Drug Co.. Cor.

Winter salads frequently lack varie- ty, as new touches should be given to them whenever possible. In using the canned asparagus tips, for instance, they are very apt to be tasteless. even when highly seasoned with mayonnaise or French dressing. Try cutting up over the asparagus one or two green papers from which the seeds have been carefully removed. This adds greatly to the flavor, and if red pep pers are used the appearance of the salad is also improved.
