Show HEREDITY Can Be Overcome in Cases. The influence of heredity cannot, ot course, be successfully disputed, but it can be minimized or entirely overcome over-come in some cases by correct food and drink. A Conn, lady says: "For years while I was a coffee drinker I suffered from bilious attacks at-tacks of great severity, from which I used to emerge as white as a ghost and very weak. Our family physician physi-cian gave me various prescriptions for improving the digestion and stimulating stimulat-ing the liver, which I tried faithfully but without perceptible result. "He was acquainted with my family fam-ily history for several generations back, and once when I visited him he said: 'If you have inherited one of those torpid livers you may always suffer more or less from its inaction. We can't dodge our inheritance, you know.' "I was not so strong a believer in heredity as he was, however, and, beginning be-ginning to think for myself, I concluded conclud-ed to stop drinking coffee, and see what effect that would have. I feared it would be a severe trial to give it up, but when I took Postum and had it well made, it completely filled my need for a hot beverage and I grew very fond of It. "I have used Postum for three years, using no medicine. During all that time I have had absolutely none of the bilious attacks that I used to suffer suf-fer from, and I have been entirely free from the pain and debilitating effects ef-fects that used to result from them. "The change is surely very great, and I am compelled to give Postum the exclusive credit for it." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.
