pays small heed 10 the claims of health.
He eats anything. anyhow, anywhen,
and anywhere. He doesn't eat cTusts
by anv means nor spare his purse to MI
his stomach The mistake he makes IS
in thinking that when man has filed
his stomach, that IS the end OF the buSI-
ness of feeding Instead Of being the
end of feeding it's only the beginning.
There is no value in food unless It IS
digested, converted into nutrition and
assiuliIated. These processes depend
upon the healthfulness of the stomach
and the other organs OF digestion and
nutrition. When these organs are dis
eased they cannot extract the nutrition
from the food received into the stomach
and the body becomes weak through
lack OF nourishmeRt. One day this
vweakness" begins to ind special de-
velopment in some chief organ, heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys, etc, 10 winch the
man succumbs. The doctors certificate
reads eheart disease, y 81 kidney disease"
as the case may be
But the real reading of the certificate
should be:
Starved TC DEATH.
The truth of this statement is appar-
e0t The body IS sustained by 1000
digested and assimi1ated. But the body
IS made up of its parts aud organs, and
when the stomach IS weak" diE. >stion
imperfect, and the nutrition extracted
from food inadequate TO the needs Of the
body, the result is shared by every part
and organ of the body For this reason
no man is stronger than his stomach,
and no organ sustained by the stomach
can be stronger than the stomach
Therefore when we hear Of weak
stomach we are pretty sure we are going
to hear in time Of weak heart, weak"
lungs, cweal, kidneys, OF Tcak-eSS Of
some other organ of the body dependent
on the stomach and its associated organs
