SYMP ATHLETIC BOND
BETWEEN NERVES
THE EYES ARE CAPABLE OF

There is Il bond Of sympathy be-
tween all cent.rs and branches Of the
nervous system.
The center. which. fo- instance. con-
trolls the stomach. is known to science
as the solar p'exus." Yet it is wei
known fact that in prize fights a solar
p.exus blow instantly stops the heart.
although its usual operations concern
only the stomach. Why? Because Of
the bond of sympathy between the
various branches That is the reason
the inside nerves are sometimes called
the sympathetic" nerves. This ex-
plains why stomach trouble often de-
yeiops into heart trouble; why in
digestion brings on nervousness. why
eye strain causes kidney and bladder
troubles, why disease becomes CON-
piicated II explains. too. why medi-
cal treatments are wrong-why mcdi-
cines fall.
As life and health depends upon per-
feet heart action, upon proper stomach
