"Coffee never agreed with me nor with several members of our house hold," writes a lady. "It enervates, depresses and creates a feeling ot languor and heaviness. It was only by leaving off coffee and using Postunr that we discovered the cause and way out of these ills. "The only reason, I am. sure, why FoBtum is not used altogether to the exclusion of ordinary coffee is. many persons do not know and do not seem, willing to learn the facts and how to prepare this nutritious beverage.
