Reliability /f
is what a doctor must he assured of in recom- n
mending 1 a food or drink. He must know that
it is honest, efficient, pure and wholesome. ( / I /
In cases of nervousness, heart flutter, head
ache, biliousness, indigestion, etc., where the pa- Pj
tient is a coffee drinker, most doctors order: A
"Quit coffee and use Postum."
Doctors recommend Postum because they K
know that it is a pure food-drink—absolutely //
free from the drug, caffeine, which makes coffee f
injurious to most users.
It is significant that thousands of physicians
not onlv recommend, but themselves use i * "
POSTUM
—its worth having been fully demonstrated, not only in the home, but in Sani
tariums, Hospitals and Colleges.
Postum now comes in two forms:
Regular Postum must be well boiled—lsc and 25c packages.
Instant Postum—soluble—no boiling—made in the cup with hot water, in
stantly. 30c and 50c tins.'
Both kinds are delicious—cost per cup about the same—sold by Grocers
everywhere.
