A leading authority of Germany
has gone on record as follows: "Sau-
cr kraut, especially the juice, is an
invaluable foo treatment for stom-
ach. bowels and blood There is
nothing better for impure blood.
The famous DIR. Brokaw, of s..
Louis said: spinach may be the
broom Of the stomach but sauer
kraut is the vacuum cleaner"
Still another eminent authority
tells us: II have found that the

Now let me tell you something else
You have heard of the famous Ellie
Metchnkoff of the Paris Institute.
Metchnikof discovered the good lit
tie bugs called Tactic acid bacilli
which thrive in buttermilk, kumiss,
matzoon, Bulgarian clabber and va
hourt These are the germs which
destroy the poisons i'm our systems,
and the strongest and most energetic
of these little friends are the kind
that flourish in sauer kraut juice,
the very same juice which our wives
and our chefs so often throw away
by pouring down the sink
These little germs in sauer kraut
are the fighters which attack and de-
stroy the bad germs which cause
disease. They are the Dempseys of
the human system. they don't know
when they're licked, they keep on
fighting till they win. They're the
best friends we've got toay in the
arena of life. And | ask you to re-
member that these germs of health
literally TEEN in sauer kraut and
sauer kraut juice. These are scien-
tific facts. gentlemen.
Old Metchnikoff tells a story of g
weaver at Minsk. Russia, who was a
hunchback and so deformed that he
scarcely ever ventured out upon the
street. Children hooted him and the
dogs barked, and so the unfortunate
man stayed indoors all day. He had
no pleasures of life. He had neither
chick nor child. But he did have
one grand passion-and that was
sauer kraut. As he sat at his loom
and worked far into the night, he had
two bowls on his bench beside him,
on his left bowl of cooked kraut
and on his right bowl Of raw kraut
and he dipped alternately into one
Of them and then into the other eat

one hundred and three years old,

chnioH goes on to say that sauer
kraut didn't do it all, perhaps, but
he thinks there is no doubt that il
helped materially in view of the
fact that the longest lived people
in the world-the Russians and the
natives of the Balkan states-fairly
live on sauer kraut, sauer milk and
black bread. =.
Sauer kraut is the greatest anti

the year 1776, and it is still used on
British vessels and others on long
