Ever since 1 can remember we had

a more or less injurious effect upon
us all, and I myself suffered almost
death from Indigestion and nervous
ness caused by it.
Il know it was that, because when
would leave it off for a few days I
would feel better. But it was hard to
give it up, even though 1 realized how
harmful it was to me.
AT last found a perfectly easy
way to make the change. Four years
ago I abandoned the coffee habit and
began to drink Postum, and l also in
fuenced the rest of the family to do
the same. Even the children are al
lowed to drink it freely as they do
water. And it has done us all great
good

quantity of money has been brought
out of hiding, and, as was expected,
foreigners are bringing their savings
