A BACK LICK.

Settled the Case With Her. Many great discoveries have been made by accident and things better than gold mines have been found in this way, for example when even the accidental discovery that coffee is the real cause of one’s sickness proves of most tremendous Value because it locates the cause and the person has then a chance to get well. “For over 25 years,” says a Missouri woman, “I suffered untold agonies in my stomach and even the best physicians disagreed as to the cause without giving me any permanent help, different ones saying It was gastritis, indigestion, neuralgia, etc., so I dragged along from year to year, always half sick, until finally I gave up all hopes of ever being well again. “When taking dinner with a friend one day she said she had a new drink which turned out to be Postum and I liked it so well I told her I thought I would stop coffee for awhile and use it, which I did.

“So for three months we had Postum in place of coffee without ever having one of my old spells, but was always healthy and vigorous Instead. “Husband kept saying he was convinced It was coffee that caused those spells, but even then I wouldn’t believe it until one day we got out of Postum and as we lived two miles from town I thought to use the coffee we had In the house. "The result of a week’s use of coffee again was that I had another terrible spell of agony and distress, proving that It was the coffee and nothing else. That settled It and I said good-bye to Coffee forever and sliice then Postum alone has been our hot u&ealtlme drink. “My friends all say/ I am looking worlds better -and my complexion Is much Improved. All the other members of our family have been benefited, too, by Pdstuoa In place of the old drink, coffee.’? Name given by Postum Co., Battle)Creek, Mich. Ten'days’ trial of Postum In place of coffae' or tea is the wise thing for ev-C-ry coffee drinker. Buch a trial tejls the exact truth often where coffee Is not suspected.
