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

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day
after day, have found a better capact
ty 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 / was
nervous and extremely Respondent;
had little mental or physical strength
left, had kidney trouble and constipa-
ton.
1.-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 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"

the street coughing at intervals He
looked at the blue sky and laughing
landscape with disapproval, for he was
i'll and lonely and out of tune with

He looked curiously at an old colon

IA small boy swung placidly upon the
gate.
Judge Holcombe stopped moment
to cough, and the small boy olsen
gagged himself from the gate.

with grave politeness. Mother says
we must always invite the 'coughers' to

''I'll send one of the children for

The People Do Not Drink Enough

Authority.

"The numerous cases of kidney and
bladder diseases and rheumatism are
mainly due to the fact that the drink
ing Of water, natures greatest medi-
cine, has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with med
icines and cure-alls; but get on the
water wagon. If you are really sick,
why, Of course, take the proper medi-
cines plain, common vegetable treat
ment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
To cure Rheumatism you must make
the kidneys do their work; they are
the filters of the blood. They must
be made to strain out Of the blood the
waste matter and acids that cause
rheumatism; the urine must be neu-
tralized so it will no longer be 8
source Of irritation to the bladder, and,
most Of all, you must keep these acids
from forming in the stomach. This
is the cause of stomach trouble and
poor digestion. For these conditions
you can do no better than take the
following prescription: Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound
Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup
sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by
shaking well in bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime, but don't forget the
water. Drink plenty and often.
This valuable information and sim
pie prescription should be posted up
in each household and used at the
first sign Of an attack Of rheumatism,
