GUS prostration for four years.

months 1 never went to bed excepting
to get up in the morning. 1 felt as
though 1 was liable to die any time.
Frequently 1 had nervous chills and
the least excitement would drive sleep
away, and any little noise would upset
me terribly. 1 was gradually getting
worse until finally one time it came
over me and 1 asked myself what's the
use of being sick all the time and
buying medicine so that I could in
dulge myself in coffee?

quit drinking coffee and got some
Postum to help me quit I made it
strictly according to directions and 1
want to tell you, that change was the
greatest step in my life 1t was easy

"One oy one the old troubles left,

BIG MOTOR SHOW KANSAS CITY.
Next Weeks Exposition to Be the
Most Comprehensive Ever
Given in the West.

Nearly as many visitors will be in
Kansas City next week to attend the
fourth annual Automobile Show as are
in the city during the fall p. o. p. fes-
tlyities, it is believed. The entertain
ment, that is to cost the Kansas City
Automobile Dealers association more
than $4,000, exclusive of the expense
of securing exhibits, will rank ahead
of any motor entertainment in America
not given by a manufacturers associa-
ton. More than eighty makes of cars,
the biggest accessories department in
any western show, and a representa-
tive motorcycle display will be fea-
lures of the show. Many of the auto
mobiles to be exhibited are new makes,
never seen before in the West. There
will be torpedo types, gunboat models,
and nearly all the other racy designs
in car bodies.
AS a setting for this remarkable dis
play. the association will convert Con-
vention Hall into "a magic park of
trees and by building a balcony pa
Wilton entirely around the hall will
present the big hall at its biggest. A
realistic sky-piece, special lighting,
cosy hooks, the air scented with apple
blossom perfume, an aeroplane, and
other incidental items will accentuate
the out-of-doors impression that visi-
tor will sustain.
