WILL IT BECOME POPULAR ;?
How Do You Like This New Fad?

Vegetarians, anti-coffee drinkers and food cranks of every description must now take a back seat for a new fad has the floor.
 A society has recently been formed the members of which pledge themselves to eat no food whatever that has been cooked. They claim that uncooked food Is the only rational healthful diet; that our remote an- cestors ate no cooked food, and therefore if we do the same, vigor and health will be our reward.
 Raw meat, raw potatoes, raw wheat, raw eggs, raw everything, is the enticing bill of fare held out to the enthusiastic food crank of the future, and the society proposes to establish restaurants in the larger cities where this delightful menu may be served daily.
 Modern cooking is often a dyspepsia pro- ducer, because we fry so many foods which should be baked, roasted, brofled or boiled. Fried food Is indigestible because each par ticle of food is encased in hot grease, which the digestive juices of the stomach cannot easily penetrate. But properly-cooked food is more easily digested than the same food uncooked, and we predict for the new Tad a very limited following.
 The real cause of indigestion Is the lack of hydrochloric acid and peptones In the stomach, so that no matter how well cooked the food 1t cannot be well digested unless the gastric juice is abundant and contains the necessary amount or peptoneS 10 olS-
 
 Therefore the most sensible cure for poor digestion is to take after each meal some safe and reliable digestive, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which supply peptones to digest the meat and eggs and diastase to digest the bread, potatoes and similar starchy foods.
 Laxative medicines never cure indiges- ton because they have no digestive effect whatever upon the food On the other hand, If the food is properly digested there will be no need of laxatives; good digestion does away with constipation.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain pure aseptic pepsin Government test, diastase and the digestive elements which weak stomachs lack, and they cure indigestion by assisting the overworked, rundown stomach in its hard work until 1t is re stored to It's normal condition, when the tablets are no longer needed. But there are thousands of robust men and women who never eat meal without taking one or two of Stuart's Tablets because by so do- ing they can eat what they please and when they please and be free from any bad after effects
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by druggists everywhere in the United States, Canada and GrAaA D-iA-s--

A Philadelphia physician Of note. DR..
Edward II. Dewey, claims to cure all
sorts Of diseases by starving his pa.
tieuts. The brain, says this practitioner,
never loses weight In either sickness or
starvation. Usually the mind remains
clear when the body has wasted away.
The head Is the power-hOuse Of the
body. The stomach IL run by brain
power When the stomach does too
much work It makes too great q de-
nand upon the brain.
"For more than twenty years. writes
this doctor, IL have permitted my sick
70 do without food so long as there was
no desire for II. Not a mOuthful was
enforced In any case, not one m0uthful
denied on the first hint Of hunger.
"In this ! have had all the medical
textbooks and the entire medical pro-
fession as authority unquestiOned
against me. That food Is needed to
sustain the strength Of the sick has
never been a matter OF question with
the medical profession.
"Many Of my sick have gone for more
than month without food. One very
sick, In bed for more than month
with acute rheumatism, was able to
walk about the room on the forty.sixth
day before the first food was taken. An.
other patient, q woman Of 81, went
until the forty-third day before she
broke her fast, and without any omis'
sion of her ordinary duties. A diseased
stomach was cured as the result, and
BOW. after five years, there has been
no return of the trouble"
Physicians are pretty generally
agreed that Americans eat too much
especially too much meat. The no
breakfast habit may not be so very silly
after all.
