Of coffee, and believing that to grow
We should give some attention to new
ideas. We decided to test Postum.
when we made 1t right We liked
It and were free Of ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the
change-fresher skin. sturdier nerves,
better temper, etc.
These changes were not sudden.
but increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum. and We lost
tho desire for coffee.
MANY Of our friends did not like
Postum at first, because they did not
make It right. But when they made
Postum according to directions on
