When Coffee
Gets You—
The experience will be like that of thousands who
have ignored the fact that coffee contains a habit
forming- drug, caffeine—about 2 l / 2 grains to the or
dinary cup.
, Some say, "Coffee don't hurt me," and seem to
get on with it for a time. But there are few persons
who can use coffee as a routine daily beverage and
not sometime, feel its effects—headache, nervous
ness, indigestion, biliousness, sleeplessness, heart
( trouble, or some other discomfort.
Thousands have found relief
by stopping coffee and using
POSTUM
A delicious table beverage made only from whole
wheat and a small per cent, of molasses, POSTUM
contains the nourishment of the grain, including the
essential mineral salts (phosphate of potash, etc.)
but is positively free from the drug, caffeine, or any
other harmful substance.
Postum now comes in two forms:
Regular Postum— must be well boiled—lsc and
25c pkgs.
Instant Postum —a soluble form—requires no boil
ing—3oc and 50c tins.
The cosi ;cr cup of both kinds is about the same.
There's a mighty army of POSTUM users
—the number is steadily growing—and
"There's a Reason"
Grocers everywhere sell POSTUM.
