gastrointestinal tract. Constipation is
one of the most commonly known mani
festations of autointoxication; it is not
disease but a symptom of the most
important autointoxieation.
Alimentary poisoning from improper
food is widespread; the symptoms are
from mild to severe and are often so
late in appearing that they are not
associated with the dietary folly. The
vicious cycle is begun in deficient
thinking, and ends with different fail
ures of health, called by various names
which befuddles the thoughtless.
Meat from the earcasses of slaugh-
tered animals is responsible for most
of the Observation-Disclosures.
The panacea for all toxemias is
prophylaxis or prevention. 1t is posi-
BILE to find the proper honest dietary;
there must be an aseptic dietary or an
antitoxic dietary. The London Society
has widened the symmetrical theory
which is the basis of vegetarianism
(neo-vegetarianism). 1t is in harmony
with universal law that health, happi-
ness and life are normal, that disease,
misery and death are abnormal and
that man has the power to choose the
normal by obedience to the law of
nature and that vegetarianism is CO.
incident with obedience to natural law.
Animal products, milk, eggs, butter,
cheese and vegetable foods contain in
assimilable form all the chemical ele-
ments for perfect nutrition.

AUToINToXIcATIoN.

The symptom complex called auto
intoxieation is the one central point OF
agreement of all schools of medicine
By administration is meant any dis.
ease manifestation which can be traced
to the alimentary canal as a first ply,
steal cause. 1t is obviously admitted
that there must be first mental cause;
but we are inclined to relegate to the
rear the primary causes when they are
not physical. Nevertheless the real
causes of physical ills originate some
where and we are compelled to admit
that defective thought is the real
first cause of all disease.
What enters the gastrointestinal tract
is the result of thought. What enters
the mouth defles the body or acts other
wise. The alimentary canal has a
double duty; it furnishes a tube from
which the nourishment of every cell in
the body is accomplished and by the
same tube the drainage scheme is
largely carried on. Most of the dis
eases of the body can be traced to
improper food and drink or to some
toxic agent entering the mouth, the
portal of the alimentary tract.
Many diseases, due to autoinfec-
tion (also called administration and
alimentary toxemia) are extensive and
important, although apparently far
away from any connection with the
