"Some time ago, I was making an afficlal visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee and asked him concerning it He replied that it was Postum. "I was so pleased with it that after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, and had wife 'prepare some for the next meal. The whole family liked it so well, that wo discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. - "I had really been at times very anxious concerning my mother's condition, but we noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did arior to its use. and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much' improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. "I know Postum has benefited myself and the other members of the family, but not In so marked a degree as In the case of my mother, as she was a victim of long standing." ,. .
