A thorough chewing Of food holds
H. in the mouth until mixed with
saliva, the first OF the digestive fluids.
For good stomach digestion. regular
ity In taking meals Is best. Don't ever
eat all you want. Eating whenever you
are hungry. means overwork for the
stomach.
Vegetables and fruits are rich In
the juices and acids that aid diges-
ton. Good stomach digestion aids the
small intestinal digestion to large
degree. The large intestincs must be
kept free and open, after the remain
ing nutriment of the food mass has
been absorbed. TO aid this process,
walking, bending and reaching exer
cises will keep the large intestines
active.
Don't eat to excess Of fats. sugars
or starches. Don't become tea or

drinking water is great aid to diges-
ton.

DIGESTION.

DIGESTION.
A positive working program of
health includes. as its chief aim, a
normal cell-nourishing blood stream
as the result of proper yitamines and
food content that make for perfect
digestion.
Indigestion is often the result of
bolted food. Food improperly cooked
will cause gas in the stomach, bldAt-
ing and belching. The same diet con-
tinually month after month Is another
cause. Poisons In improper food,
coffee. tobacco and lack of exercise
resulting in constipation also induce
chronic cases of indigestion.
The teeth, stomach, small and large
intestines must all do their part to
insure a perfect digestion and health

AL SHUBERT HASN'T BEEN
STOPPED IN HIS CAREER
New Bedford Bearcat and Joe Currie
Slated for IL Rounds in New
Haven Thursday.

New Haven, April AL Shubert,
the New Bedford Bearcat, who fights
Joe Currie Il rounds as the star
bout of the Nutmegs card at Music
Hall this coming Thursday evening,
has splendid ring record. Fer near
ly 10 years this sturdy young gentle
man has been stacking up against
the best talent in his class and in a
grand total OF 200 battles has lost but
16 decisions. Considering the fact that
Shubert fights anyone and anywhere,
this is marvellous performance.
In his long career, at no time has
Shubert been stopped. He has fought
three worlds champions, namely Kid
Williams, Pete Herman and Johnny
Kilbane, and battled Lew Tender on
three memorable occasions. The New
Bedfordite holds referees verdicts
over the following: Pal Moore, Kid
Wolfe, Jack Sharkey, Dick Loadman,
Willie Kohler frankie Britt, Bobby
Joseph, Johnny Murray. Earl Baird,
Freddie Jacks, Joey Fox. Charley
Manly, Tommy Noble, Andy Clancy,
Jimmy Cooney and Kid Kaplan.
therefore, 1t is only just to say,
that Currie earn a win over Shubert,
the New Havener is entitled to great
credit and will be in line for some big
bouts here.
The eight-rounder between Nick
Petite, OF Bridgeport, and frankie
Nictoia, of this city, should be a
corker. Nick is coming along in a
hurry and so is frankie. The clash
should be enlightening. The other
eight-rounder between Willie Connors
of Greenwich, and Young Silverberg.
of Ansonia, is likewise of the r. N. r.
sort. Henry Monguese appears in
the opener.
