When it began calling at mid- night and 2 o’clock in the morn- ing, it became a nuisance. When tea or coffee stimulates the nerves at mealtime it seems pleasant, but when it gives the wake-up call at midnight and leaves nerves hungering for sleep at mid-afternoon, the pleasure is gone and serious harm is on the way. This oftery happens. Thousands of people have found it fully as pleasant and far more safe, to get the comfort of a hot meal- time cup of Postum—and tc know that there’s not going to be any irritation to nerves afterward. Postum is delicious and satis- fying, and it contains no element that can harm nerves or diges- tion. Postum is a safe and de- lightful drink for every member of the family, at any meal. Your grocer has both forms of Postum: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water.
