A GOOD THING
Sure To Win When People Know Il

The marvellous growth Of the sale OF
Postum is principally due to the fact
that when a man or woman learns that
coffee is hurting them and that there's
relief by changing TO Postum. they are
pretty sure to find out for themselves
by trial.
For six or eight years had suffered

medicine for stomach trouble, and sew

Two years ago. I was nervous and
weak when my last boy came. and
couldn't nurse him. / had an attack
Of bilious collie one day and could taste
nothing but coffee / told my husband
would not drink any more coffee as
I believed II caused my troubles
Having heard a lot about Postum
had him get some ! did not like Il
at first. but when we boiled II thor
oughly according to directions on the
pkg. ] liked II, felt better, and the baby
was better. too.
AT that time my husband was a
slave TO coffee. he had his coffee and
had Postum. One night he thought
he was dying. / had had those attacks
and told him he was only nervous from
drinking coffee for supper.
THE next morning he told the cook
not TO make coffee. he would try Pos
tum. When he came home that after
noon, he still wanted Postum. said he
felt better than for a long time. and
that night he rested better than for
good many nights.
From that day till this he has been
Postum drinker and has better health
than for years. I used TO weigh 120
lbs. when I began TO use Postum, now
weigh $50. All my children drink
Postum and are healthy.
Our grocer did not handle Postum
but he got it for us. AS our friends
saw the good it had done us. they
began TO drink Postum. and now our
grocer says he can hardly keep enough

tained by vote Of the people. In speaking
Of the bill providing for an increase in the

needed to conduct the schools.
