The Mcal-tlme Drink. 1 Very Important Factor In the Production of Disease. Littlado the thousands of American people of today, who are addicted to the insidious habit ot coffee and tea drinking, realize 'j. w seriously they are undermining the hu- . iu structure and paving the way for future velopment of disease, and all through the orce of habit. It is a habit, just as much so that of alcoholic stimulants. In fact, the ■aiae poisonous alkaloids abide in coHee and tea as in whisky, alcohol, tobacco, morphine, ‘c., though not so deadly in character, permns, but sufficiently harmful to produce numerous diseases of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, palpitation ot the heart, nervousness, etc. It is fast becoming a habit second only to that of alcoholism. Doubtless, there are those who are loath to believe that the use of these beverages has ever aHected their health in any way, though they often complain from the very same disorders of which coffee and tea drinking are the direct cause. They attribute their ailments of the stomach, liver, nervCs, etc., to the organs themselves, but never dream of the cause of such organic derangement. Each concoction of poison administered to the nervous system by the use of coffee or tea, is like adding fuel to the flame, and hence the functional disturbances and finally organic disease. They are the real cause of more sickness than is generally supposed. The fact that Dr. Martin, being a physician, and fully aware of the harmful effects of coffee and tea, led him to experimenting . and he finally produced the first cereal coffee ever discovered, the now famous Dr. Martin’s ■ Nervine Coffee, the new food substitute for coffee, absolutely pure, unadulterated preparation of the choicest grains, gluten and rich cereals, nature’s own products. These he has so harmoniously compounded as Mtoproduce a daAhtful, healthful and deli- ' •: I I Kstitute. all others are ■ K and the health rugK further than two of substitutes.
