and everything I beard of Spent
lota of money but I was sick nearly
all tbe time Sometimes I was so
nervous I could not bold a plate In
my hands! and other times I thought
I would surely die sitting at tbe table
"This went on until about two years
ago when one day I did not use any
coffee and I noticed I was not so nerv-
ous and told my husband about it
He had been telling me that It might
be the coffee but I said ‘No I have
been drinking coffee all my life and
It cannot be' But after this I thought
I would try and do without and drink
hot water I did this for several days
hut got tired of the hot water and
went to drinking coffee and as soon
aa I began coffee again I was nervous
again This proved that It was the
coffee that caused my troubles
"We had tried Postum but bad not
made it right and did not like It but
now I decided to give It another trial
o 1 read the directions on the pack-
age carefully and made It after these
directions and It was simply delicious
so we quit coffee for good and the re-
sults are wonderful Before I could
not sleep but now I go to bed and
sleep sound am not a bit nervous
now but work bard and can walk
miles Nervous headaches are gone
my heart does not bother me any
more like it did and I don't have any
of the smothering spells and would
you believe It? I am getting fat We
drink Postum now and nothing else
and even my husband's - headaches
bave disappeared we both eleep
