A HIT What She Gained by Trying Again.

A failure at first makes us esteem final success. A family in Minnesota that now enjoys Postum would never have known how good it is if the mother had been discouraged by the failure of her first attempt to prepare It. Her son tells the story: "We had never used Postum till last spring when father brought home a package one evening Just to try it.

It looked weak and didn’t have a very promising color, but nevertheless father raised his cup with atf air of exceptancy. It certainly did give him a great surprise, but I*m afraid it wasn't a very pleasant one, for he put down his cup with a look of disgust Mother wasn't discouraged though, ■mi next morning gave it another trial, letting it stand on the stove till boiling began and then letting It boil for fifteen or twenty minutes, and this time we were all so pleased with it that wei have used it ever since. "father was a confirmed dyspeptic and a cup of coffee was to him like poison. So he never drinks it any more, but drinks Postum regularly. He isn't troubled with dyspepsia now and Is actually growing fit, and I*m sure Postum Is the cause of It All the children are allowed to drink it and they are perfect plot ores of health."
