If one we're to form an opinion from
the number of helpful. inspiring and in
forming articles one sees in the public
press and magazines, the purpose of
which is to increase our efficiency, he
must believe that the entire American
Nation is striving for such an end
And this is so.
The American Nan because the race is
swifter every day: competition IS keener
and the stronger the man the greater his
capacity 10 win. The stronger the man
the stronger his viii and brain, and the
\ greater his ability to match wits and
win. The greater his confidence in him
self, the greater the confidence of other
people in him; the keener his wit and
the clearer his brain.
The American Woman because she
must be competent to rear and manage
the family and home, and take all the
thought and responsibility from the
shoulders of the man, whose present-dav
business burdens are all that he can
carry.
Now what are we doing to secure that
efficiency? Much mentally, some of us
much physically, but what is the
trouble?
We are not really efficient more than

Now this waste that ! speak of can
not be thoroughly removed by drugs,
but even if it could the effect of these
drugs on the functions is very I'M
natural and if continued becomes a
periodical necessity.
Note the opinions on drugging of two
most eminent physicians:

York College of Physicians and Sur
geons, says; All of our curative agents

Prof Joseph NJ. Smith, NJ D., of the
same school, says: All medicines which
enter the circulation poison the blood in
the same manner as do the poisons that
produce disease.
Now. the internal organism can be kept
as sweet and pure and clean as the ex
ternal and by the same natural, sane
method-bathing.
How can we battle the stomach and in
testines! Just as easy as the hands and
face are bathed. If your liver or stom-
ach cannot digest three meals a day,
eat only two or one and easily digested
foods, fluids, &c. Eat plenty of fruit;
YOU will always find them in the market
The acid of the fruit will help digest the
food. Eat ice cream or drink warm drinks
whichever suits your stomach. lust as
Won take cold or hot baths Now this
manner of eating only once or twice
day and easily digested foods, and helped
by fruit juices will rest your digestive
organs And allow them to catch up and
also allow them to empty the stomach
during the night-then in the morning
either drink all YOU want of hot or cold
water before breakfast and it will thor
oughly wash out the digestive organs.
If You drink lemonade at meal times or
of mornings, it is very helpful.
Then have an OsteOpath free the
nerves to the digestive organs and per-
feet circulation will be restored to liver
and stomach and you will be well again

clean the clock. YOU would not put acid
on the parts. though you could probably
find one that would do the work, nor to
clean the engine would you force a cleaner
through it that would impure its parts;
yet that is the process you employ when
YOU drug the system to rid it of waste.
You would clean your clock and engine
with a harmless cleanser that Nature
has provided, and you can do exactly
the same for yourself as | will demon
strate before | conclude.
The reason that a physicians first
step in illness IS to purge the system
is that no medicine can take effect nor
can the system work properly while the
colon large intestine) is clogged up. If
the colon were not clOgged up the chances
are 10 to L that you would not have been
i'll at all.
1t may take some time for the clog
ging process to reach the stage where it
produces real illness, but, no matter how
long it Tal1es. while it is going on, the
functions are not working so as to keep
us up TO concert pitch" Our livers are
sluggish we are dull and heavv-slight

80 per cent. efficient.
And if this condition progresses to
where real illness develops, it is i'm
possible to tell what form that illness
will take. because
The blood is constantly circulating
through the colon and, taking up by
absorption the poisOns in the waste
which it contains. it distributes them
throughout the system and weakens it
so that we are subject to whatever dis
ease is most prevalent, and finally con-
sumption.
The nature of the illness depends on
our own little weaknesses and what we
are the least able to resist.
These facts are all scientifically cor
rect in every particular, and it has often
surprised me that they are not more
generally known and appreciated, All
we have. to do is to consider the treat
ment that We have received in illness
TO realize fully how it developed and the
methods used to remove it.
SO YOU see that not only is accumu-
lated waste directly and constantly pull
ing down our efficiency by making our
blood poor and our intellect dull-Our
spirits low and our ambitions weak, but
it is responsible through its weakening
and injecting processes for a list of i'll
nesses that if catalogued here would
seem almost unbelievable.
1t is the direct and immediate cause
of. that very expensive and dangerous
complaint-appendicitis.
If We can successfully eliminate the
waste, all our functions work properly
and in accord-there are no poisons be
ing taken UP by the blood, so It is pure
and imparts strength to every part of
the body instead of weakness is
nothing to clog up the system and make
Us bilious, dull and nervously fearful
With everything working in perfect
accord and without obstruction, our
brains are clear. our entire physical be
ing is competent to respond quickly to
every requirement, and we are 100 per |
cent. efficient.

Why Man of Today Is Only SO
Per Cent. Efficient.

half the time Half the time blue and
worried-all the time nervous-some of
the time really incapacitated by illness
There is a reason for this-a practical
reason. one that has been known to
physicians for quite period and will
be known to the entire World ere long.
That reason is that the human system
does not, and will not, rid itself of all
the waste which it accumulates under
our present mode of living. No matter
how regular we are, the food we eat
ana the sedentary lives we live (even
though we do get some exercise) make it
impossible; just as impossible as it is
for the CRATE of stove to rid itself of
clinkers.
And the waste does to us exactly what
the clinkers do to the stove; make the
fire burn low and inefficiently until
enough clinkers have accumulated, and
then prevent its burning at all.
1t has been our habit, after this waste
has reduced our efficiency about IS per
cent, TO drug ourselves; or after we
have become 100 per cent. inefficient
through illness. send for a physician who

by dragging.
If a clock is not cleaned once in
while it clogs up and stops; the same
way with an engine because of the
residue which it, itself, accumulates. To
