It's Loaded
You Say!
\
Well, I'll take your word for it.
Don't fool with it around here!
That's what any sane individual would say to a man with
a loaded gun. Yet there are thousands tampering with a
beverage loaded with a poisonous drug which gets in its work
with sure precision.
\
That beverage is Coffee—
Caffeine is its drug.
t
Headache, biliousness, nervousness, sleeplessness—these
are some of the signs that so often accompany coffee's
operations.
Knowing that coffee is loaded, why not quit it and use
INSTANT POSTUM
—a pure food-drink, made from hard northern wheat with
a bit of wholesome molasses. Caffeine-free—drtig-freH—

Postum comes in two forms: Postum Cereal—
