The details are most interesting to anyone who even suspects that coffee is damaging to the health. She says: “I drank coffee fro a child, and a few years ago my health be gan to break down, everything 1 ate or drank distressed me, and I settled into chronic form of dyspepsia accompanied with a headache every morning, and was very | irritable most of the time. I could not without/ taking a sleeping draught. While a: first the pains in my stomach were slight, they kept growing worse, until finally the most wholesome food and drink would cause intense agony, and a few min- utes after ting 1 would have to throw everything up. My doctor had been telling offee was hurting but J did not believe it was true, for I many people drink coffee and t ht a | me saw Of course, in this condition 1 could not sustain my flesh and strength, and 1 lost in weight fron pounds down to 00 | pounds, and a perfect skeleton, 1 was confined to my bed and dying by inches —The doctor told me there was no chance of my ever getting well my stomach Wis Worn out They had begun to wonder how many more days { would live. One day a lady friend called and told how wonderfully she helped out of stomach trouble and headaches by leaving off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee and Grape-Nuts Food. She went right to work and made me a nice cup of Postum and prepa; a little Grape-Nuts. 1 dreaded the torture of taking anything into my stomach, but she conxed me to take a spoonful of Pos tum and of Grape-Nuts. To my great sur- prise I found I did not have any pain to speak of in my stomach, and the food ac- tually stald down. Everyone was completely mygtified. In a little time afterward 1 drank three spoonfuls of the Postum and took a littl more of the Grape-Nuts, and that stay down and seemed to soothe my nerves give me a restful feeling Soon after the doctor came and my nurse told him that, for the first time in three weeks, f0oo? had stayed on the stomach. He could hardly believe her as he thought death was very near. Then he wanted to know what 1 had been eating and drinking. He took home some of the Grape-Nuts and Postum. The next day he said there was no mystery about it, as he had anal- ) the samples and said he had found a igested food, and one that would not hurt the stomach, and the Postum was the most natural drink he had ever seen. He sald that it did not excite the nerves as Qid coffee, and that 1t was nourishing and built up the system instead of tearing it down. He had my nurse give me more of the Postum and Grape-Nuts and said there | was one chance, in ten that my system might be built up and my life be saved In less than a week's time I could drink half a cup of Postum at once, and how it aid quiet my nerves and make me feel lke 1 was getting some strength Six daye after beginning Postum 1 went to sleep the first time in two months with- out taking a sleeping draught. So step by step 1 kept on improving. The headaches disappeared. My stomach became stronger each day and I gained steadily in weight. At the end of four months I felt like a new person, and had gained fty pounds in weight, could sleep well, eat plain food, and, all 1o all, feel well and strong again My head is 80 clear that 1 can think bet- ter than I ever could. 1 know, and all of our friends know, that there is not the slightest doubt but that I would be in my grave today but for Postum Food Coffee and Grape-Nuts You can publish this account if you wish but please only use my initials.” Miss N U., Sebastopol, Calif.
