This old proverb was based on q no
ton that every man by the time he
reached middle life usually learns how
to care for his own health. II we admit
the truth Of II, however, we must on-
clude that a very large proportion OF the
people we meet are not-well not ex-
aotly physicians. Instead % taking
a r OF their health, Is II not true that
the majority OF people seem rather to be
trying 10 destroy their health by irreg-
ular living or overwork7 Is II not also
a fact that thousands Of men are break
ing down In the prime OF life and becom-
ing physical wrecks In consequence Of
their indiscretion?
All people who have ever made a
study Of the subject declare that this Is
the case, and yet there are to-day, large
numbers OF Woodworking business men
and women with many cares, who are
always on the go and never az rest, that
enjoy the best OF health. Do you know
why this 10 80? Ask some OF them, and
they viii tell you that they feel we'll, eat

find that II replaces the energy they
daily expand. keeps them braced up and

The great stimulating principle con-
talned In the pure malt has a wonderful
effect In tonIns UP the digestive organs,

A NEW DISCOVERY BY Thu SHAKERS.

For more than n hundred years The
Mount Lebanon Shakers have studied
the cultivation of medicinal plants and
sought TO extract from them their heal
ing essences. Their labor has not been
spent In vain. They have made n dis
covery that will prove a blessing to
mankind. II consists OF a cordial that
causes immediate relief In cases OF In
digestion. The Importance Of this dis
covery will be apparent when we rea-
lie that nearly nine-tenths OF ~ suf-
ferinE are caused by dyspepsia or in
digestion. Nearly every person you
meet has this digestive trouble in some
OF its varied forms-slck headache, dis
tress after eating, pain and f~ullness In
the chest after eating, palpltation OF the
gestlon. TO relieve these sufferings
has been the study Of the
Shakers, and they have succeeded. The
reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial has
such an immediate and salutary effect
Ia that II causes the food eaten to be
dlaested, for Il is undlgcsted food chat
causes the distress. Tho Cordial
causes the food to be digeBtcd before
there 10 time for It TO fernent and
sour ON the stomach. When the food
