A happy old lady in Wisconsin

"During tho time I waa a coffeo
drinker I was subject to elck head
aches, Bomettmca lasting 2 or 3 days,
totally unfitting mo for anything.
To UiIb affliction was added, some
years ago, a trouble with my heart
that was very painful, accompanied
by a smothering sensation and faint
ness. "Dyspepsia, also, camo to mnko life
harder to boar. I took nil Ports of pat
ent mcdlclnoB but nono of thorn helped
mo for any length ot tiino.
"Tho doctors frequently told me
that coffeo waa not good for mo; but
without coffeo I felt as It I had no
breakfast I finally decided nbout 2
years ago to abandon tho uso of cof
feo entirely, nnd ns I had read n great
deal about Postum I concluded to try
that for a breakfast beverago.
"I liked tho tasto of It and was pan
Ucularly pleased to notlco that it did
noi 'como up' as coffoo used to. Tho
bad spoils with my heart grew losa
and losa frequent, and finally ceased
altogether, and I havo not had an at
tack of sick hoadncho for moro than, n
yoar. My digestion Is good, too, nnd
I nm thankful that I am onco moro u
henlthy woman. I know my wonder
