All Drank Coffee from Infancy.

It is common thing in this country
to see whole families growing up with
nervous systems weakened by coffee
drinking.
That is because many parents do not
realize that coffee contains drug-caf-
feine-which causes the trouble.
There are five children in my fam
ily," writers an Iowa mother, "all of
whom drank coffee from infancy I'D to
two years ago.
My husband and I had heart trouble
and were advised to quit coffee. We
did so and began to use Postum We
now are doing without medicine and
are entirely relieved of heart trouble
Caffeine causes heart trouble when
continually used as in coffee drinking.)
"Our eleven-year-old boy had a weak
digestion from birth, and yet always
.craved and was given coffee When we
changed to Postum he liked it and we
gave him all he wanted. He has been
restored to health by Postum and still
likes it.
