Transcript
The makers of Postam, the favorite mealtime drink in millions of American homes, present those two lovable old characters from the hill country, love and abner. Remember the old proverb, try was never beaten? Well I wonder how true that is in the case of a person who's
grouchy and bad-tempered on account of indigestion. I dare say in that case you would try hard enough to be cheerful and pleasant, but with indigestion it isn't always so easy to make the grade. So why not remember this?
A frequent cause of indigestion is coffee nerves. It's a well known fact that although many people can drink coffee without getting upset, many others cannot. And that's why. When you think coffee disagrees with you, you can't do anything better than to try post them.
The reason being that Postam contains no caffeine or stimulant of any kind, it could possibly cause you distress. And you will enjoy Postam for it has its own distinctive delicious flavor. A flavor that is made Postam, the favorite mealtime drink in millions of American homes.
And once you taste Postam, once you know how cheering and satisfying it really is, you wish you would make Postam your regular mealtime drink long ago. So if coffee is spoiling your digestion and thereby making you an old grouch, try drinking post-hum instead of coffee.
See if you don't feel better even in a few days and in two weeks long enough to give post-hum a really fair trial. See if you aren't your happy, smiling, good-natured self again. Drink post-hum.
