JOHN POMEROY POINTS
WAY TO LIVE NEW LIFE.
Noted Scientist Expounds His
Theory That Existence Cen
'ters in the Stomach-Inter-
est Shown All Over State.

Interest continues all over the state
in the remarkable new theory adyan-
ced by John Pomeroy that stomach
trouble is responsible for the vast ma
jority of acses of ill health.
In an interview Mr.. oPmeroy said:
"Stomach trouble / consider the curse
of the century Thousands who do
not know what is the matter with
them are suffering from it. They
take so-called treatments for ner.
vousness, kidney trouble, liver com
plants, constipation or heart trouble
And in vain, for they do not get at the
3es has become slowly poinsoned by
dropping o facid and nauseating mu-
Gus. usually from catarrh. into the
throat during slumber, or caleless
swallowing of it through the day.
An infiamed condition results, diges-
ton is arrested, dyspesian is establ-
ished, nutrition is denied. the appetite
fails. the liver is clogged the blood is
fouled. kidneys cannot act, constipa-
ton follows, pimples appear, aches
and pains utter their warning, and a
general debility is the result, followed
by suffering and death
81 cannot begin to number the peo-
pie who have come to me with pitiful
stories of how they had dizzy spells,
were weak all the time,f could not
sleep at night, got up in the mornings
more tired than when they went 10
bed, and the very sight of food nau-
seated them. Or sometimes they had
had unnaturally ravenoust appetltes,
felt stuffed up after eating, their minds
wandered, violent headaches attacked
them, often accompanied by a sudden
nausea, vomiting or fainting spells.
Many had been forced to go without
solid food for several weeks at time,

troubled with formation Of gas on that

Thousands of such sufferers have
poured out their thanks to my med

. NEW YORK, March 24.--Look out for
Some years ago, when Fred Clarke's
grand old team was a factor to be con-

races, this was familiar cry around
the old circuit.
But the Pirates OF ten odd years ago

the team, and the veteran Babe Adams

For good many years Barney Drey-

the passing of Fred Clarke have tried
to build UP another pennant- winning
team TO no avail. The Pirates have
come, looked and have been conquered
But 1920 is another year. And once
again the old familiar warning Look
out for the Pirates"-is being heard
around the National league.
Stepping into the shoes left vacant
by Hugo Bezdek, who really did much
to put new blood and life into the
Pittsburgh club, and whose efforts were
always untiring, George Gibson has in
herited a ball club that at this early
time looks TO be certain contender for
the National league pennant.

CutshaW Good.

George Cutshaw, Of course, is good
enough to play second base on most
anybodys club. But while Zeb Terry
at short and Barbara at third are capa-
bic fielders they have never threatened
to set the old league afire with the
hIudgeon. The Pirates also have Car
son Bigbee. who may be played almost
anywhere, and in case Grimm should
fail 1t is possible that Whitfield might
be called from the garden to play first
base.
The Pirate infied, aside from Cut
shaw, is youthful combination That
much is consoling 10 Pirate fans, for
there is always the chance that young
player will come into his own as a hit
ter, and Terry, Bigbee and Barbara are
due.
With this collection of athletes in the
melting pot it appeared that Gibson
has a brilliant chance to celebrate his
first year as major league manager
by giving Pittsburgh the best team it
has had since 1909. The Pirates were
busy Fostering the Reds and Giants, not
to mention the Cubs, throughout the
1919 season. This year they may be
throwing dust in the eyes of their RI
walls. Who knows? At least. at this
writing, they look like a club with a
big opportunity.
