 THE EXTREME OF FOLLY.
 The most foolhardy man who ever risked his fife, or the most infatuated gambler who ever risked his fortune, IS a sage compared with the man who attempts to get the best of Nature. The fooihardy man may succeed. The gambler may win. But the man who takes chances with Nature IS bound to lose. If the obituaries of tens of thou sands who are cut down annually in life's prime were truly written death would not be attributed to this or that form of disease, but to an attempt to evade the necessary laws of health.
 The weak spot in the modern man is bis stomach. It is in disease of the stomach that many of the maladies begin which carry of the busy men of the day. The seed of disease once planted in the stomach grows snd spreads like some climbing parasite about a tree It throws out a tendril about the heart and presently another which take hold of Kidneys and liver. Then suddenly the man is s-nitten by heart disease or lung disease; or sue curnbs to some malady of kidneys or liver. The real seat of disease is the stomach. And one of the reasons why the diseases of the other organs often fail of a cure is that the treatment ignores the stomach, and attempts to treat directly the other organs, whose diseases are only symptoms of disease of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition.
 THERE'S PLENTY OF PROOF
 of tn. soundness of the proposition ths, diseases Of other organs remote from the stomach Which are caused by dis ease of the stomach must be cured through the stomach, and, in fact, can not be cured in any ether way. The best proof in the world is that Doctor
