Do You Enjoy Your Meals! :!
One of the Most Important Questions
TO Consider In the Search for
Happiness and Health.

The burning question to you is,
"Are you getting out OF life all the
pleasure and the health you are en-
titled to?" If not, why not?
No matter whether every organ and
member of your body is in a sound
state of health and strength, If your
stomach is in any way disordered. you
are not going to be yourself" You
are going to be a worried out-of-sorts.
nervous or sullen individual. whose
actions will reflect your condition in

The world wants to smile and be
cheerful. and unless you are cheerful
and smile, at least occasionally, you
will have few friends. fewer oppor-
tunities. no success. aud you will go

pepsia and a bad stomach.
A good and thorough digestion has
a quick. wonderful reaction upon the

YOUR vitals as a result. surely your
brain is going to be sluggish and cor.

tell you that.
But why continue to suffer all th'

If YOUR stomach cannot digest YOU
