Glow of Health Speaks for Postum.

It requires no scientific training to
discover whether coffee disagrees or
not.
Simply stop it for time and use
Postum in place of it, then note the
beneficial effects. The truth will appear.

fered from Indigestion, nervousness
and insomnia.
II was then an inveterate coffee
drinker, but 1t was long before I could
be persuaded that it was coffee that
hurt me. Finally decided to leave it
of a few days and find out the truth.
1.-THE first morning left OF coffee /
had raging headache, so decided

Of coffee" (The headache was caused
by the reaction Of the coffee drug
caffeine.)
Having heard of Postum through a
friend who used it, bought package
and tried it. did not like it at first
but after l learned how to make it
right, according to directions on pkg,
I would not change back to coffee for
anything.

weighed only lit lbs. Now I weigh
10 and as have not taksn any tonic
In that time can only attribute my
recovery Of good health to the use OF
Postum in place Of coffee.

Smiles Face Value.

Although most Of us would hesitate
to express what might be termed the
face value of the modern smile,' we
certainly realize at times that 1t Is
form of currency which is deprec1-
ating. In the modern smile" we recog-
nize the crude, official thing which
neither illuminates, cheers nor bridges
awful gaps of silence. 1t may SAVIOR
Of suggesting wave OF imbeclllty 10
declare that we ought all to smile
more, but it is certainly true that the
charm of a woman's smile was once
esteemed even above beauty.
