This Is Illustrated In the following story: "I was for 12 years clerk In a store working actively and drank coffee all the time without much trouble until after 1 entered the telegraph service. "There I got very little exercise and drinking strong coffae. my nerves grew unsteady and my stomach got weak and I was soon a very sick man. I quit meat and tobacco and In fact I stopped eating everything which I thought might affect me except cof

fee, but still my condition grew worse

I was all but a wreck.

"I finally quit coffee and commenced

to use Postum a few years ago and I am speaking the truth when 1 say. my condition commenced to Improve immediately and to-day 1 am well and can eat anything I want without any bad effects, all due from shifting from coffee to Postum.
