A short time ago there appeared in the columns of one of the prominent magazines an article on building brain and muscle by the proper selection of the foods you eat. A good many people were surprised to find oatmeal placed at the top of the list of foods recommended; but if the article bad appeared In an English or Scotch paper every reader would have expected to see first place given to good oatmeal. As a matter of fact Great Britain and Europe come to us for tremendous quantities of Quaker Oats because it represents to them perfect food, being the richest in flavor and best in cleanliness and purity, of all oatmeals. Americans should eat more Quaker Oats; the results would soon show themselves in improved conditions of health and strength. 55 Comparison Shunned. "You didn't cry at all at the matinee.

It Is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such a condition as it did an Ohio woman. She tells her own story; I did not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked It so well I would not, and could not quit drinking It, but I was a miserable sufferer from heart trouble and nervous prostration for four years. I was scarcely able to be around, had no energy and did not care for anything. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought I could not endure It For months I never went to bed excepting to get up in the morning. I felt as though I was liable to die any time. "Frequently I ha(l nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, and any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting worse until finally one time it came over me and I asked myself whats the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine so that I could Indulge myself In coffee? So I thought I would see if I could quit drinking coffee and got some Postum to help me quit. I made it strictly according to directions and I want to tell you, that change was the greatest step In my life. It was easy to quit coffee because I had the Postum w.'ich I now like better than the old coffee. One by one the old troubles left, until now I am in splendid health, nerves steady, heart all right and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, dont take any medicine, can do all my housework, and have done a great deal beside. Read The Road to Wellville, 1: pkgs. Theres a Reason."
