Could it be your after—dinner coffee that keeps you awake at night? Perhaps you are one of those people who simply can’t take coffee in the evening, because the caffeine in it makes you excited. Coffee with caffeine(咖啡因) does make some people restless, just when they want to go to sleep. So, before you rush to the doctor for “something to make you sleep”, change over to H. A. G. — a new kind of caffeine — free coffee, the nicest coffee so far. This kind of coffee is made by modern scientific methods and has come to the perfection for the greatest pleasure that drinking good coffee gives, but without any harmful effects. H. A. G. is the coffee that continental people, who are such great coffee drinkers, have been taking in the evenings for over 50 years. Make your choice of H. A. G. Enjoy good coffee and good sleep. Health food stores and most groceries have H. A. G. coffee. If there is any difficulty, send (with your name and address) for free sample(样品) from the A. A. SUPPLY CO. LTD. 31/32 Priory Park Road, London, N. W. 6.
