ROSY COLOR
Produced by Postum.

when a person rises from each
meal with a ringing in the ears and a
general sense of nervousness, it is
a common habit to charge it to a de-
ranged stomach.
Il found it was caused from drink
ing coffee, which | never suspected for
a long time, but found by leaving Off
coffee that the disagreeable feelings
went away.
Il was brought to think of the sub
ject by getting some Postum and this
brought me out of trouble.
1T is a most appetizing and invig-
Grating beverage and has been of
such great benefit to me that | natu-
rally speak of it from time to time
as opportunity offers.
"A lady friend complained to me
that she had tried Postum, but it did
not taste good. In reply to my Ques-
ton she said she guessed she boiled it
about ten minutes. | advised her to
follow directions and know that she
boiled it fifteen or twenty minutes. and
she would have something worth talk
ing about. A short time ago | heard
one OF her children say that they were
drinking Postum nowadays, so I
judge she succeeded in making it
good. which is by no mean a difficult
task.

formerly a pale lad. but since he has
been drinking Postum. has a fine color.
