~ one is so foolish as to suppose for moment that
can live without eating, any more than tree could de-
rive nutrmcnt from the air alone, without the soil All
therefore know that is what put into the stomach
which causes us to live. We make bodies
from the stomach. in from three five years we make
bodies cntireiy.-Thus what is part of
day, is absolutely not part of us tomorrow The
crctons, such perspration and other excavations,
continually make our bodies waste and it is from the
stomach that we supply this waste. All have TO do
to make bodies ultimately healthy to prevent
healthy PARTICLES from mixing with the blood. Purga-
ton does this for provided the purgativc employ
contains in il nothing which will weaken do in
jury-Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills. for this
purpose, will be found all that is required because
they purge from the stomach and bowels the super
abundance of humors that may have accumulated the
system, before they have time to produce purcaction,
and its natural conscqucncc-dcath.
