new to them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder, The
husband writes;
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless, nerv-
Gus, sallow. weak and irritable. My
wife and | both loved coffee and
thought it was a bracer" (Delusiono
Finally, after years of suffering, we
read of Postum and the harmfulness
of coffee. and believing that to grow
we should give some attention TO new
ideas. we decided to test Postum.
When we made il right we liked
it and were free Ct 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
the desire for coffee.
MANY of our friends did not like
Postum at first, becbuse they did not
make il right But when they made
Postum according Ito directions on
