THE ROAD TO POPULARITY

But It Is Not Always Safe to

THE way to be popular has been ex-
planned by one of the marshmallow
magazines which initiates itself with

life. when you shake hands with
a man." runs the recipe. grasp the
hand as though you were glad to see
the owner, look him in the eye, and
give him smile from your heart"
This Is a sure-enough recipe. 1t
has been worked by some Of the great
est frauds in Christendom to subserye
their own ends. The man who Is
seeking popularity. posing for 1t,
angling for 1t. usually doesn't deserve

who show you their real selves. who,

ABANDONED 1T
For tho Old Fashioned Coffee Was
Killing.

"I always drank coffee with the rest
was nothing for breakfast If we did
not have 1t on the table.
II had been troubled some time
with my heart, which did not feel
right. This trouble grew worse steadily.
Sometimes 1t would beat fast and
at other times very slowly, SO that
would hardly be able to do work for
an hour or two after breakfast, and if
l walked up a hill, 1t gave me se-
we're pain.
II had no idea of what the trouble
was until friend suggested that per-
haps 1t might be caused by coffee
drinking. tried leaving off the coffee
and began drinking Postum. The
change came quickly. l am now glad
to say that 1 am entirely well of the
heart trouble and attribute the relief
to leaving of coffee and the use of
Postum.
"A number of my friends have aban-
doned the old fashioned coffee and
have taken up with Postum. which
they are using steadily. There are
some people that make Postum very
weak and tasteless, but II 1t is boiled
long enough, according to directions.
1t is very delicious beverage. We
have never used any Of the old fash
ioned coffee since Postum was first
started in our house."

No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such record
of cures of female Ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as.
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostrat;on, and 1t is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
