1.-The thing that is holding ninety Of
a hundred working girls out Of better
positions, the reason hundreds Of work
ing men stay in the same old rut year
after year, is their noon luncheon. In
the morning they snatch a hasty break
fast. At noon they eat a cold lunch, or
swallow a cup Of hot coffee. At night
they come home exhausted. Their work
is hard, but if they were properly nour-

you see them every morning start
ing to work" he continued. "They are
half tired already. Most Of them carry
luncheons. In the evening you see
them struggling home, worn out. Even

time. He drags about, troubled with
dull headaches, a lifeless, listless feel

is feeling Of exhaustion as the day

Left to itself, this condition may

troubles Of all kinds, skin troubles,
blood disorders, catarrh, dyspepsia,
chronic constipation, even rheumatism,

Il stay at my headquarters until 10
O'Clock every Saturday night in order
to meet the working men and women
who cannot consult me any other time.
I have found in thousands Of cases that

"a good digestion is at the root Of all
health. 1t means pure, rich blood rush
ing through your veins, a clear, alert
mind, good temper, abundant energy.
1t makes a great difference in your
value to yOLr employer if you come to
work feeling fun of life and vigor. You
turn the work off easily and do it well.
