A TROUBLE
Tea and Coffee Poison Breeds
Variety of Ills.
A california woman who didn't
know for twenty years what kept
her ill, writes to tell how she won
back her health by quitting coffee:
(Tea contains caffeine --the same.
drug fourtd in coffee.)
"I am 51 years old," she say,
"have used coffee all my life and
for 20 years suffered from indiges-
tion and insomnia. Life was a bur-
den and a drag to me all the time,
and about once a year my ailments
got such hold upon me that I was
regularly 'sick in bed' for several
weeks each time.
"I Was reluctant to conclude
that coffee was the cause of my
trouble, but I an thankful that I
found out the truth.
“Then I determined to use Dos -
tum exclusively—for a week at first
—for I doubted my ability to de,
without coffee for; any length ,of
time. I made the Posture careful-
ly; as directed, and before the
week expired had my reward in a
perceptible increase in strength
and spirits.
'Seeing the good that my short
experiment had accomplished, I
resolved to continua the use of Dos -
tum, cutting Out the coffee entire-
ly. This I did for n.ine months,
finding, daily, increased cause for
gratification at nay steadily improv-
ing health. My indigestion gradu-
ally left me my sleep returned I
