KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case
For a Time.

It's easy to understand how ordi-
nary people get fooled by coffee when
doctors themselves sometimes forget
the facts.
A physician speaks of his own expe-
rience:
Il had used coffee for years and really
did not exactly believe 1t was injuring
me although I had palpitation of the
heart every day. (Tea contains caf.
feine-the same drug found in coffee
and is just as harmful as coffee.)
Finally one day a severe and al
most fatal attack of heart trouble
frightened me and gave up both tea
and coffee, using Postum instead, and
since that time have had absolutely
no heart palpitation except on one or
two occasions when tried small
quantity Of coffee, which caused severe
Irritation and proved to me / must let
1t alone.
When we began using Postum 1t
seemed weak-that was because we
did not make 1t according to directions
but now we put little bit Of but
ter in the pot when boiling and allow
the Postum to boil full Is minutes
which gives 1t the proper rich flavor
and the deep brown color.
II have advised great many OF
my friends and patients to leave OF
coffee and drink Postum, in fact daily
give this advice" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Many thousands Of physicians use
Postum In place Of tea and coffee In
their own homes and prescribe it to
patients.
