When a mans stomach is diseased or
dersnged he is like an army separated
from its commissary department, for
the stomach is the source Of supply and
energy for the entire body, and unless
it is working properly, nutrition is shut
of and every other organ IN the body
begins TO show the effect by disordered
and imperfect action
Sufferers from stomach trouble can
often be told by their carewon sp-
pearanee, lusterless eyes, sallow com
plexion, foul breath, and lack OF energy
and interest in life.
It is q pleasure TO treat stomach
troubles and note the gradual improve
ment of the workings OF every organ In
the body, as the skin loses its sallow
cast, the eye gains its normal luster,
the muscles regain their normal tone
and the picture passes from one of
gloomy dependency to one Of perfect
health, with increased vigor, firm
bouyant elastic step, a smile where
there was frown.
