"HotV are Your BoweLSf" A SIM
pie Remedy thar Guarantees
Good Bowel Action.

Trace the origin of the commoner
ills Of life and almost invariably you
will find that constipation was the
cause. 1t is not to be expected that a
mass OF fermented food can remain in
the system beyond it's time without vi
tiating the blood and affecting the
nerves and muscles. 1t congests the
entire body.
The results are colds, ~fevers, piles,
headaches, and nervousness, with its
accompanying indigestion and sleep
lessness. There Is only one thing to
do, and that is to remove the trouble;
and when nature seems unable to do
it, outside aid is necessary. You will
find the best of all outside aids a rem

ANOTHER COFFEE WRECK
What's the Use When There's an Easy
Way Out?

Along with the coffee habit has
grown the prevalent American Dis.
ease"-nervous prostration.
The following letter shows the way
out of the trouble:
Five years ago / was a great cot.
fee drinker and from it's use / be-
came so nervous / could scarcely
sleep at all nights. My condition grew
worse and worse until finally the ply.
stefan / consulted declared my trou-
bles were due to coffee.
But being so welded to the bev.
erage l did not see how / could do
without it, especially at breakfast,
as that meal seemed incomplete with.
out coffee.
"On a visit, my friends deprived me
Of coffee to prove that 1t was harm
full. At the end OF about eight days
! was less nervous, but the craving
for coffee was intense, SO l went back
to the old habit as soon as ! got home
and the old sleepless nights came
near making a wreck of me.
II heard of Postum and decided to
try it. did not like it at first, be-
cause, as / afterwards discovered, it
was not made properly. / found, how
ever, that when made after directions
on the package, it was delicious.
1T had a soothing effect on my
nerves, and none of the bad effects
that coffee had, SO / babe farewell to
coffee and have used only Postum
since. The most wonderful account Of
the benefit to be derived from
Postum could not exceed my own ex-
p%erience."
