Settled the Case With Her.
Many : great discoverIes have been
made by accident and things better
than gold mines have been found In
this way , for example when even the
accidental discovery that coffee Is the
: real cause of one's sickness proves of
most tremendous value because It locatoR -
cateR the cause and the person has
then a chance to get well.
"For over 25 years , " says a Missouri
woman , "I suffered untold agonies In
my stomach and even the best phy-
sicians disagreed as to the cause without -
out giving me any permanent help ,
different ones saying It was gastritis ,
indigestion , neuralgia , etc" , so 1
dragged along from year to year , always -
ways half sick , until finally I gave up
all hopes of ever being well again
" 'hen taking dinner with a friend
one day she said she had a new drink
which turned out to be Postum and
I lilted It so well I told her I thought
I would stop coffee for awhile and use
It , which I did
"So for three months we had POSe
turn In place of coffee without ever
shaving one or my old spells but wall
always healthy and vigorous
"Husband kept saying he was con
winced It [ was coffee that caused those
spells , but even then I wouldn't be-
hove It until one day we got out of
Postum and as we lived two miles
from town I thought to use the coffee
we had In the house ,
"The result of a weelt's use of coffee -
fee again was that I had another ter
rlblo [ spell of agony and distress , provo
Ing that It was the coffee and nothing
else That settled It and I said good
bye to Coffee forever and since then
