Intense, interest and some contro-

Wy the odd theories and peculiar IDEAS
of Bro. benjamin, the stomach man.
who has been meeting the people for
weeks at the honolulu Drug Co.'S
store, 1924 Fort street, near King
,treet When interviewed yesterday
he had another thought to advance,
which, no doubt, will result in still
more discussion He said,
in olden days BARRIERS acted as the
only doctors. They carried a white
staff with red tape attached, which
hey gave their patients to hold while
they cut gashes in their limbs TO bleed
them. The red and white striped bar
Der pole of today symbolize5 that staff
with the red tape wound about it.
In those days bleeding was the
only remedy for practically all forms
# illness. And, strange as it seems
o us now, it generally did tile patieht
\ whole lot of good, although, Of
course, it never effected permanent
cure. The reason, believe, was the
ame one that holds true today-peo-

jody, forced the heart to work harder
md pump new, fresh blood into the
ems; and for short while the pa
tent felt better.
But it never cured anybody, for it
vas only treating the effect and not
he cause. The cause was stomach
trouble. The tremendous strain of
overlooking the stomach with no re-
gard for the work it had to do had
thrown the whole machinery of the
body out of gear. The stomach was
overtaXed and refused to do its work
And so govt bad blood, constipation
kidney and liver trouble, bladder dis
ease, gastritis, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
headaches, dizziness, gas on the stom-
'ch and dozens of other minor com
nlaints followed in the wake of that
one central stomach trouble
by the modern day method we go
to the foot of the trouble and treat
the stomach. My method of treat
ment with Bro. Benjamins HerbaIo
is to tone up the whole system while
acting directly on the stomach. When
the stomach is put in normal heal
thy condition it will do its work prop
erly, and | know that mighty few pco-
pie can be sick if their stomach is in
shape"
Ask any one of the many hundyeds
who are being cured by the use of fhis
wonderful remedy and they will tell
YOU that it achieves the most marvel
Gus results in very short time. Bro.
benjamin and his assistants are at
the Honolulu Drug Co., 1924 Fort
street, near King, every day from 8
to 8, except Sunday.
Among Benjamins callers today was
Nr. ID. W. Pahu of 2210, Liliha St. an
elderly gentleman who was very en-
lhatic in speaking of Bro. Beniamin's
Herbalo. From my appearance no
me could suspect that for years
have been trouble with kidney and
stomach trouble. | have tried doctors
md medicines without avail until |
called on Bro. Benjamin and was in
duced to try his wonderful medicine
fierbalo the result is that today |
I'm practically well mantle pains
IN my back are gone, my appetite is
improved, | digest my food properly,
sleep well and all around feel like a
new man. My thanks are certainly
due to Bro. Benjamin and his wonder
