TALL CORN

4 doesn't come by accident. A
fertile soil and careful cultiva-
ton are necessary to produce
the towering stems and heavy
ears.
Yet the farmer who under
stands that he can't have a
healthy corn crop without
feeding and wedding, seems
to think that he can have a
n healthy body without either
care or culture. But the BODY
is built mp just as the corn Is.
by the assimilation of the
several chemical elements on
which vitality depends. And
4 what weeds are to the corn.
diseases of the stomach and
nutritive systems are to the
body ; they divert the neces-
sary food supply from the
Y proper channels, and the
Il body becomes lean, sickly

mary essential of health. BY

or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
