MORE THAN EVER
Increased Capacity for Mental Labor
Since Leaving Off Coffee.

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day
after day, have found better capaci-
~ and greater endurance by using
Postum instead of ordinary coffee. An
Illinois woman writes
Il had drank coffee for about TWEEN
ty years, and finally had what the
doctor called coffee heart l was
nervous and extremely respondent;
had little mental or physical strength
left, had kidney trouble and constipa-
ton.
THE first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee to Postum
was the natural action of the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
Then l became less Respondent.
and the desire to be active again
showed proof Of renewed physical and
mental strength.
Il am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. / formerly
did mental work and had to give 1t up
on account Of coffee, but since using
Postum am doing hard mental labor
with less fatigue than ever before"

Rack to the Wild,

There was a time when all dogs
were wild and when what we call
wolves were different from other dogs
only as collie now is different from
a Newfoundland, for instance. From
time to time you will hear of dogs
that have returned to the life of their
ancestors and have run wild with the
wolves of the prairie or OF the woods.
In the town of Sandy in Oregon a
greyhound one night made the ac-
quaintance of a coyote which is
kind of wolf, and ever since he has
lived away from the town, running
with the coyotes and approaching hui
man dwelling-places only to steal
hen or two when he has been more
than usually hungry.
