sion, always eat salt with nuts to aid
Digestion" but il is only recently that
scientific men have determined whv this
Is so. Salt Is a chemical substance,
made up of soda and muriatic acid, and
the gastric juice requires a certain
amount of acid to do its work properly.
When salt Is eaten it sets free this acid
and thus the stomach is helped to digest
nuts and other difficult food. But II the
walls of the stomach have been weak
ened and stretched by disease and over
work, sc that the contents are not prop
erly churned up, the food stagnates and
fernentS, causing water-brash, gas and
other disagreeable symptoms. The walls
require toning up and the flow of gastric
Juice must he stimulated. Look at the
anatomy of the stomach. II Is made up,
outwardly, of several layers of muscles
laid over one another. 1t has, interi-
orly, certain glands whose function II is
to pour forth the gastric juices whenever
its nav is filled with food. Give these
muscles and this wonderful chemical
! contrivance no work to do and 1t will
become weak-too weak to properly di-
gest the food to sustain the blood and
feed the nerves. The muscles of the
stomach require exercise. just as any
other muscles of the body; neglect them
with too much ease and inaction and
you raise a d~yspeptic. Natures way is
the best. Our teeth were never made
for soft food. Eat food that requires
biting, chewing, masticating. Give the
stomach eXercise-give all the muscles
of the body exercise-by taking walks
o. runs In the fresh air. Do not pamper
the children with dollhouse methods;
there is a coinmon-sense method. II
the children or man or woman show a
tendency to be 'of their feed" II they
begin to lose flesh, their stomach should
be toned up with a harmless tonic which
will increase the seeretions of the diges-
tive tract. A tonic made OF medicinal

can be given to the smallest child with
perfect freedom. II the blood is impure,

the stomach is weak-irst eradicate the
poisons from the blood with this altera-
tive extract Of DR.. Pierce's, which he has
well named the Golden Medical Dis
covery." The blood should flow freely
through the system without clogging up
(when 1t does Stagnate we suffer from
colds, grip, catarrh). and no one part
of the body should have such inflam-
nation as will draw the blood from
the other parts of the body. In other
words, the BODY should be we'll balanced.
II there is too much head work and
brain fag. take exercise in the open air
by vigorous walking until the blood Is
started through the body and In the feet.
You will sleep much better for it. This
remedy has a history which speaks we'll
for it because it was given to the public
by Dr.. R. V. Pierce, founder of the In
valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at
Buffalo, N. Y, nearly forty years ago,
