Paritcular Travellers Demand the Impor- tation of American Articles, “Thad drunk coffee since babyhood, and although I was very nervous and dyspeptic, 1 could not and would not believe that coffee had anything to do with it,” writes an American lady now living in Munich, Germany. “My physician finally convinced me that coffee was at the bottom of all my troubles, and I tried many things to take its place, but nothing satis- fied the craving for real coffee. At last one day, in a half-hearted, de- spairing mood, I bought from the srocer some Postum Food Coffee. My grown-up daughter, who, by the way, had inherited my taste for cof- fee and also my nervousness, laughed and said, ‘Don’t you know that noth- ing can take the place of well-made coffee, half Jaya and half Mocha, with plenty of rich cream?’ firmly believe it,’ I replied, ‘but a drowning man will grasp at a straw, and I am getting more ner- vous every day, and can hardly eat anything at all, and Dr. 8, like the rest of the physicians, tells me it all comes from coffee.’ “So next morning I personally made a pot of Postum, following closely the directions—and such a surprise! The color was a rich, dark, winey brown, and a pleasant aroma greeted the nostrils, But the taste—the crucial test! I confess I feared to put it to that test for fear of another disappointment, ‘But not so with my daughter, who eagerly made the trial and fairly shouted, ‘Hurrah! mamma, you have found it at last.’ I tried it and that ended our coffee drinking for good. ‘The flavor was full and rich “and left| nothing to be desired. . “In a short time my dyspepsia dis- appeared, and, as for nerves, my daughter and myself almost forgot that such things existed until we came to Germany and I had to go back to coffee and we are again as nervous and dyspeptic as we used to| be. But we don’t intend to let it go on; I have written to America for a good supply of Postum and propose to always have it in the future at any cost, Life is miserable to us without Postum. “When we used it Postum proved the most gentle of conquerors and | troub on board were reported," ers’ Samples in Ladies’ and Cotton Hose, Plain Richelleu Ribbed, Rembrandt Rib- bed, Fancy Emt roidered and Fancy Designs In Lace and Stripes, | Value 35c. to 75c.Pr. 3 Pair for68c. ton Hose, double sole; also Black with white feet, medium welght, | fine Ribbed Cotion Hose, 25c. grate, sizes 6 to 10, Broadway, 8 & 9 Sts.
