THE NEW WOMAN
Made Over by Quitting Coffee.

Coffee probably wrecks greater
percentage of Southerners than of
Northern people for Southerners use
it more freely.
The work it does is distressing
enough in some instances; as an illus
tration, woman of Richmond, Va,
writes:
Il was a coffee drinker for years
and for about six years my health was
completely shattered. l suffered fear
fully with headache and nervousness,
also palpitation of the heart and loss
of appetite.
my sight gradually began to fail
and finally l lost the sight of one
eye altogether. The eye was op-
Grated upon and the sight partially
restored, then 1 became totally blind
in the other eye.
My doctor used to urge me to
give up coffee, but was willful and
continued to drink it until finally in a
case of severe illness the doctor in
sisted that l must give up the coffee,
so l began using Postum, and in
month l felt like new creature.
Il steadily gained in health and
strength. About a month ago 1 be-
gan using Grape-Nuts food and the
effect has been wonderful. I really
feel like new woman and have
gained about rs pounds.
Il am quite an elderly lady and be-
fore using Postum and Grape-nuts I
could not walk a square without ex-
ceeding fatigue, now l walk ten or
twelve without feeling it. Formerly
in reading I could remember but little
but now my memory holds fast what
read.
Several friends who have seen the
remarkable effects of Postum and
Grape-Nuts on me have urged that I
give the facts to the public for the
sake of suffering humanity, so, al
