It's easy to understand how ordt
nary people get fooled by coffee when
doctors themselves sometimes forget
the facts.
A physician speaks Of his own expe-
rience:
'Ihad used coffee for years and really
did not exactly believe It was injuring
me although I had palpitation OF the
heart every day. (Tea contains eaf-
feine-the same drug found in coffee
and is Just as harmful as conee.)
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 I have had absolutely
no heart palpitation except on one or
two occasions when I tried a small
quantity Of coneawhich caused severe
irritation and proved to me / must let
Il alone.
when we began using Postum e
seemed weak-that was because we
did not make It according to directions
-but now we put a little BIT Of but.

the Postum to boil full is minutes
which gives It the proper rich flavor
and the deep brown color.

my friends and patients to leave on
