something that tastes good and swal-

something more. That might be all
right if the stomach were a garbage
box that could be carried off and
emptied; but nature intends the stom-

constructed of what we eat. We should
stop to think of that. We should be
careful what we swallow, for it be-

The poisonous effects resulting

very decidedly manifest to one who
has given thought to this question,
and has made careful observations in
relation to it, The sallow complexion,

classes who have reached middle life,
the almost universal nervousness
among American women, and many
common digestive disorders, and the
increasing prevalence of nervous or
sick headaches. afford to the expert

toxic or poisonous character of tea,
coffee. and the allied beverages, cocoa
