SHE QUIT
But II Was a Hard Pull.

1t is hard to believe that coffee will
put a person in such a condition as 1t
did an Ohio woman. She tells her
own story.
Il did not believe coffee caused my
trouble, and frequently said liked it
so we'll would not quit bringing it,
but l was a miserable sufferer from
heart trouble and nervous prostration
for four years.
Il was scarcely able to be around,
and had no energy and did not care for
eating. Was emaciated and had a con-
slant pain around my heart until |
could not endure it.
Frequently l had nervour chills and
the least excitement would drive sleep
away and any little noise would upset
me terribly. | was gradually getting
worse until finally one time it came
over me and asked myself what's the
use of being sick all the time and buy
ing medicine so that l could indulge
myself in coffee?
so | thought l would see if could
quit drinking coffee and get some
Postum to help me quit. l made it
strictly according to directions, and |
want to tell that change was the
greatest step in my life. 1t was easy
to quit coffee because I had the Pos
tum which now like better than the
old coffee.
Zone by one the old troubles left
until now | am in splendid health,
nerves steady, heart all right and the
pain all gone. Never have any more
nervous chills, don't take any medi-
cine, can do all my homework and
