Heath, Says Noted Authority.
Advanced medical authorities
assert that auto intoxication is
the foundation of most of the ills
and diseases to which the human
flesh is heir. This condition"
says L. T. Cooper. who has made
an exhaustive study of the sub
juct, is nothing more nor less
than the slow self-poisoning of
the vital organs, produced by the
excessive mental and physical
stain we are forced to endure,
which renders the organ lame
and inactive and permits toxins
actual poisons-to be generated
within ones own bodyt
Sometimes the trouble starts
in the liver and kidneys, and
sometimes it starts in the stom-
ach or elsewhere, but in many
cases the blame lies with the
faulty method of living, which
has become so prevalent of re-
cent years, landlit:is the more i'm
portant organs that suffer the
final damage. AS when they fall
ter or fail in their duties the
body fills up with poisons'and the
victim readily yields to their
baneful influences. Bright's d.
sease, stomach and intestinals
troubles, catarrhal affections Of
the mucous membranes; in fact,
may be called auto intoxication
J or self-poisoning.
"A tired, dragging feeling of
} the body" continued Mr.. Coop
} er, "or sluggish mind and dull

troubles, poor circulation, imper'

Tanlac, the powerful recon

PROMISED YIELD IS THE

Government Experts Hold Out
Hope That the Conditions

Washington, May Sin the
face of threatened world food
shortage the American winter
wheat crop shows the lowest con-
dition recorded since 1888 and
promised smaller yield than any
year since 1904. Agricultural
conditions otherwise are good, the
department of agriculture an
nounced, and it recalled that al
though the winter wheat crop of
1912 showed an equally discourage
ing outlook the total production
of crops that year was the greatest
on record.
The departments forecast shows
that the harvest this year will involve
27653 900 acres whereas more than 40
100000 acres were sown to winter
wheat last August The forecast
shows that the harvest prospects have
dwindled nearly 94.0OO,0OO bushels
since the statement of a month ago.
