begins to decay, and the danger of that
decay is always present.
The ability of the craftsman to swing
a sledge or sword depends upon his
health, and when the health of the
craftsmen OF the country is being I'M
dermined the national vitality is in
danger. In i'll health the reverse of
Longfellow's picture becomes true:
Something attempted, nothing done,
And nights without repoSe.
How to guard the health of the crafts
man is a question as vital to the whole
nation as to its units. The weak point
OF the average American is his stom-
ach, which claims the first considera-
ton in the protection and preservation
of the health. No man is stronger than
his stomach. He can't be. From the
stomach and its allied organs Of digeS-
ton and nutrition all the strength of
each organ of the body must come, in
the form of food prepared by digestion
for assimilation and nutrition. A weak
stomach means a weak man. If the
stomach can't properly prepare the
food by digestion, for the nutrition of
the body, then the body will be i'm
perfectly nourished. The body can't
have more than the stomach gives it.
The full strength of a sound stomach
equals the full needs of the whole body.
The partial strength of a weak stom-
ach can only partially satisfy the
body's call for nourishment. Hence,
weak" stomach invariably means
weakness of some other organ-heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys, ETC., because these
organs are being starved, and the pain
they give is but the hunger cry of the
starved organ ~telegraphed along the
nerves.
A New Reformation
in American living will start with the
stomach. The great central organ of
vitality will then cease to be abused.
Until that time comes the medical
treatment which does not start at the
stomach will be a failure. To this is
attributable the failure of a great
many physicians to cure diseases SEEM
ingly remote from the stomach, u
having their origin in a diseased con-
dition of the stomach and other organs
of digestion and nutrition. The success
of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is due to the fact that it does
start with the stomach, and cures
through the stomach, diseases which
have their origin in a diseased condi-
ton of the stomach and its associate
organs of digestion and nutrition.
