Bunting & Son One Reason for Nervous Disorders YOUR doctor can tell you that nervous' disorders are very com mon among Americans. One reason for this is found in the fact that they are great coffee drinkers. Coffee contains caffeine, a drug, prescribed by doctors as an emergency stimulant for the heart and nervous system. It has a tendency to increase blood pressure, develop heart irreg ularities and cause digestive dis turbances. If you feel that coffee is not good for you, serve Postum as your meal time drink. Postum is a pure cereal beverage that refreshes and satisfies. It is ab solutely free from caffeine or any other irritating drug. Try a cup r of Postum with your dinnar or supper tonight. Postum is sold everywhere. Postum for Health 'There's a Reason' Pottum comet In two tonnit Inwant Pomuqi in das pre pared tnitantly in tht cup by the addition of boiling wtter.
