seem to be an organ in his body that
was not affected.

was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion he decided to give it up.

powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try 1t

frequent, his complexion began to
clear, kidneys grew better until at last
he was a new man altogether, as 70
