The importance OF maintaining good
health is easily understood, and 1t is really
a simple matter IL we take correct view
OF the conditions required. In perfect
health the stomach promptly digests food
and thus prepares nourishment. The
blood is employed to carry this nourish-
ment to the organs, nerves, muscles and
tissues which need it. The first great
essential for good health, therefore, ~
pure, rich blood. Now it is certainly @
