If Coffee
Don't Agree
Much of to-day's nervousness, indigestion, lan
guor, kidney and liver trouble, come from indiscre
tions in eating and drinking, so commonplace that
they are seldom considered till Nature pulls one up
with a sharp jerk.
More often than is suspected, coffee is the
cause of these troubles.
A simple, easy way to discover the real cause
and relieve one's self of a lot of discomfort is to quit

POSTUM
This beverage contains none of the coffee drugs
(caffeine, tannin, etc.) which are responsible for
many human ailments, big and little. Postum is a
food-drink made from prime wheat and a bit of mo
lasses. It is pure and contains only the wholesome
goodness of the grain.
Postum conies in two forms:
Regular Postum—must be boiled. 15c and 25c
packages.
Instant Postum—a soluble form. A teaspoonful
stirred in a cup of hot water dissolves quickly and
makes a most delightful beverage, with cream and
sugar added to taste. 30c and 50c tins.
The cost per cup of both knds is about the same.
Thousands who have changed from coffee to
Postum know

Grocers everywhere sell Postum.

A TONIC FOR DYSPEPTICS
When food lies undigested in the
stomach it ferments and gas forms.
Thlß gas distends the stomach and
presses on the heart, causing a pain
that sometimes arouses fear of heart
trouble. The condition in which gas
forms is caused by a low tone of the
digestive organs and a lack of rich
red blood resulting in deficient nerve
force. It is a condition that calls for
a tonic.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, a tonic for
the blood and nerves, have been used
with great success in the treatment of
this form of stomach trouble. Cold
baths In the morning followed by brisk
friction with a rough towel will help
as they stimulate the circulation but a
tonic treatment with Dr. Williams'i
Pink Pills by building up the blood,
restoring the nerve force and making
the stomach able to do its work gives
the most lasting benefit. With their
use the appetite increases, digestion
becomes normal and improvement in
the general health follows with cer
tainty.
You are trying no experiment when
you take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They
cannot harm the moat delicate sys
tem. '
You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
at the nearest drug store. A copy of
the diet book "What to Eat and How
to Eat" will be sent free by the Dr.
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady,

OLD PEOPLE GAIN
Strength by Taking Vinol. Here
Is Proof.
So many cases like this are con
stantly coming to our attention that
we publish It for the benefit of oth
ers:—Mr. John Wldmayer, of Jackson,
Mich., says: "1 am nearly 70 years
of age, and was in a feeble condition
but Vinol has done wonders for me.
It is the best medicine to create
strength I have ever seen and I have
taken a good many of them. Last
Spring I was run down and worn out
but I UKk Vinol and soon regained
my strength. Vinol is certainly an
invigorating tonic for old people.
It Is the medical curative elements
of the cod livers without oil aided by
tho blood-making and strength-creat
ing properties of tonic iron which are
contained in Vinol that makes It so
efficient in such cases.
If you have an aged father, mother
or anyone in your family who needs
