EMBALMS THE FOOD. A California Physician's Ideas About fee. A well-known California physician, John M. Read, of Redding, Cal., maintains that coffee, when taken with the meats, has a tendency to “embalm” or “preserve” the food so that it will not digest, With this knowledge he has made many com- plete cures of indigestion, stomach troubles and nervous diseases by taking away the coffee and giving his patients Postum Cereal Coffee, which helps digestion, Dr, Read's theory is 8poken of in a letter from a gentleman of Oak P, O., Cal., who says: “Twelve years of tn- = -| digestion had made me so nervous and thin that I could scarcely work, 1 nad noticed the newspaper articles about Postum Coffee, but didn't think seriously of the matter, Finally, however, they impressed me and I went to my family physician, Dr, Jobn M, Read, of Redding, and asked him about Postum, ‘He immediately recommended it, having used it in his own and other cases for exactly the same purpose, Dr. Read is well-known throughout northern California and he surprised me by the following statement; ‘Cof- fee acts in many cases like @ large dose of alcohol taken after meals; it preserves the food so it cannot be Uisvontent, and ‘rie lecture before the Emma Willard Assowation this morning ts begin- what Mra J. ©.
