Macon People
Flock to Pemeroy
His Theory that The Stomach
is the cause Of ninety percent
OF all i'll Health is Being YER
ifiGd Every DAY.,

John Poneroy, the remarkable
New Zealander, 6ho Is row visiting
Macon and attracting so much at
tention BY his novel theories, thinks
that civilized man lacks common
sense. Pomeroy claims that most
i'll health is due to stomach disord
ers caused by improper living and
eating. When seen at his Macon
headquarters, he said:
While modern conditions have
heap to do with people heing sick
y looking, tired. thin and pale all
the time, lack Of using common
sense can be blamed equally as much
1t is impossible always to lead
the active outdoor life nature de
mands. 1t Is impossible for many
to exercise to exercise the body sui
ficiently to make the gastric jnices
wholly active and vigile. It is i'm
possible to spend as much time as
ne should in the fresh air and sun
shine. tits also impossible for US
to get absolutely fresh vegetable
food all the time, and this, more
than anything else, is the cause OF
so many under nourished and vel
lowish, sickly looking people. But
it is possible to treat the stomach,
already weakened by these mistakes
with at least little consideration
IF people thought half as mach
o. their stomach as they do their
pocketbooks there wouldn't be so
much sickness here.

LAW ENFORCEMENT FIRST

showing the objects of the campaign.
why it is necessary, and to what pur-
poses the funds raised will be de-
voted.
We have three great aims in this
campaign" declared Mr.. Lee, all of
which will appeal TO every patriotic
American who has the welfare Of his
own country at heart and any regard
for the moral and spiritual welfare
and progress Of our neighboring IA
tons. These aims are as follows:
ID To aid home Law Enforcement
(requiring about nine million.
(2l To Amaricanize the Foreigner
(requiring about nine million).
80 A Dry World by 1880 (including
Mexico and West Indies1.
a fourth Of the money raised in
the campaign is to be left in The State
for object one, Law Enforcement,
which means creating public senti-
ment for observance OF law, and de-
mand for officers who viii enforce the

cooperation by our organization and

Another fourth Of the money, for
object two, goes to the Anti-Saloou
League of America for work among
aliens in this country. We must make
good and law-abiding citizens Of those
foreigners who stay with US, through
education, literature and speakers In
the only language they maya know.
While harangued by anarchists and
boozeadTocates they remain a men,
ace to our institutions. These scat.
tered colonies within our borders can
be reached only through the Systematic
and studied propaganda of the Ma.
tional League.
Such of the remainder OF the funds
as may be determined by the state
and National Leagues is to be devoted

the money so generously given to mis-.
sions by Bapitsts, Methodists, Presby-
terisns. Episcopalians and others.
Let's help make effective these mis-
sionary gifts. The missionary pleads
for our help against the emigrating
liquor dealer and his wares that are
hurrying TO other shores.
Under objects one and two the
Anti-Saloon League seeks to remove
the cause that Y. u. C. A, Red Cross,
Salvation Army and other noble bodies
are earnestly striving to remedy. With
law enforcement. proper education and
removal of temptation there viii be
less poverty, fewer dens Of vice,

organizations viii be made easier and

Under object three it viii be pos.

shores, some countries Of the Old

citizens taught to respect such before
