In coffee.

but kept on using coffee and did not
get any better.
Last winter my husband, who was
away on business. had Postum served
to him in the family where he board

came home he brought some with him.
We began using it and l found 1t
most excellent.
while drank 1t my stomach never
bothered me in the least, and I got
over my nervous troubles. When the
Postum was gone we returned to cof-

me as before. and the nervous con-
