Arrangements have been made for the greatest exhibit of any ever held MUSIC STUDENTS. Should Have Steadx Nerves.

The nervous system of the musician, is often very sensitive and any habit like coffee may so upset the nerves as to make regular and necessary daily practice next to impossible. "I practice from seven to eight hours a day and study Harmony two hours," writes a Mici. music student. "Last September I was. so nervous I could" practice only a few minutes at time and mother said I would have to drop my music for a year.

"This was terribly discouraging as 1 couldn't bear the thought of losing a whole year of study. Becoming convinced that my nervousness was caused largely by coffee, and seeing Postum so highly spoken of, I decided I would test It for awhile. "Mother followed the directions carefully and I thought I had never tasted such a delicious drink. We drank Postum every morning instead of coffee, and by November I felt more like myself than for (vears and was ready to resume my music. "I now practice as usual, do my studying, and when my day's work is finished I am not any more nervous than when I began.

"I canont too highly recommend Postum to musicians who practice half a day. 'My father is a physician and recommends Postum to his patients. Words cannot express my appreciation for this most valuable health beverage, and experience has proven its superiority overfall, others." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Battls Creek, Mich.
