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

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day aft
er day, have found a better capacity
and greater endurance by using Post
UNI instead of coffee. An Ills. Woman
writes:
81 had drank coffee for about twenty
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 constipation.
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.
81 am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. / formerly
did mental work and had to give it up
On account of coffee, but since using
Postum / am doing hard mental labor
with less fatigue than ever before"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
Postum now comes in new concen-
trated form called Instant Postum. 1t
is regular Postum, so processed at the
factory that only the soluble portions
are retained.
A spoonful of Instant Postum with
hot water, and sugar and cream to
taste, produce instantly a delicious
beverage.
