For each cup of coffee or tea contains from one and one- half to three grains of caffeine. Caffeine has a tendency to agitate the nervous system, when the nerves, normally, should be relaxed. The result is that you fail to get the c'>ep, restful sleep that restores health and vigor, If you have any idea that coffee or tea is injurious to your health, drink delicious Postum, instead. Postum is the pura cereal beverage that helps the nervous system, by permitting you to get sound, revitalizing sleep. " Serve this fragrant, mealtime beverage. You and the family will be surprised and pleased with its delicious, coffee- like flavor. And better health is worth while. Postum comes in two forms:—Instant Postum (in tins) prepared instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling' water.
