THE STOMACH
Bro. Benjamin Warns That
Race Welfare Is Endang
cred By Bad Diet.

"Men eat too much grease in their
food and women eat foo many sweet
| things for the race 10 he healthy
one. Such diet becomes habit and
an abnormal craving is created. TAX
en- with irregular hours Of sleeping -
too little sleep one day and too much
. the next The stomach gets out Of
order and the entire nervous system
is shattered. We see this on every
hand every day. II is the growing
menace TO the physical prosperity Of
the nation"
Fro. Benjamin, the stomach man"
attacked the diet of Honolulu people
yesterday in an interview, declaring
that the we'll being Of the race was in
danger from careless habits of living.
, Bro. Benjamin is the eaSterner who
has created a Veritable furore of com
ment in Honolulu and the Islands by
his theories that 50 per cent of all i'll
health is caused by stomach trouble
and nothing else, Judging from the
number of people who have announced
themselves converts to his beliefs he
has had remarkable success here. He
has been demonstrating several med
ical preparations of his own manulac-
ture at the Honolulu Drug Co 3 store,
1924 Fort street, near King street, and
claims that more than 1000 people in
Honolulu are using his remedies
Continuing his interview, Bro. Ben
jamin said:
81 can not make it too strong when
| say that the American race is in
danger from our diet The stomach
of our people is degenerating from
overeating, lack of exercise and neg
ect of health laws. We stuff our
bodies with all kinds of food, men
too much grease and women too much
candy and sWeetmeats, as I said, This
is fatal to the welfare of the individ-
ual, but even more so to the whole
community because of its wide prev
alence
Thousands of people in Honolulu
are half sick all OF the time and don't
know the reason, why. It's as simple
as A B G. A stomach out Of order
skaters the nervous system and re-
suits in headaches, dizziness, fainting
fits, palpitation of the heart and nerv-
Gus prostration. A stomach out of
order discrepancies the delicate and
important machinery of the liver and
causes narrowing liver trouble A
stomach out of order prevents food
from digesting properly and causes it
to ferment and form gas, and the poi
son resulting is pumped into the
blood. That is the reason for all this
ill health in Honolulu-this droopy,
dopey, tired feeling that everybody
seems to have.
THE treatment is simple. Tone up
the stomach. Put it in normal work
ing order and all the trouble disap-
pears. This is what my medicine, :
Bro Beniamin's Herbalo, does 1t
acts as a gentle tonic for the stomach
and puts it in order In the weeks | .
have been in Honolulu | have had /
hundreds of people come to me suffer-
ing from what they thought were all
kinds of diseases. In some cases, OF
course, they were suffering from seri- j
GUS ailments, and when | found this !
was so | would tell them frankly But /,
| am safe in saying that in 95 cases
out of 100 there was nothing the mat /
ter but stomach trouble Over 5000
people in Honolulu are taking my ,
now. Hundreds who have |
been cured are giving their testimony. |
This think is much stronger than .
| could say myself"
Among Benjamin's callers Saturday |
was David Kakalia, who gave thanks
for the great amount of good done by
Bro. Benjamin's medicine in the case
OF his sick boy, 2 years old, who is
