CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food

Indigestion and Hhe attendant dis
comforts of mind and body are GER
tain to follow continued use of i'm
proper food.
Those who are still young and ro-
bust are likely to overlook the fact
that, as dropping water will wear a
stone away at last, so will the use of
heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss of appetite and indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principal of cause and effect in
their daily food. A. N. Y. young
woman writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago l had a lot of trou-
BILE from indigestion, caused by too
rich food. got so I was unable to
digest scarcely anything, and medi-
cines seemed useless.

lieved me of my trouble, but built me
up and strengthened my digestive or
