    (NE of the greatest of medical authorities has said ‘that: ~ more-than half the disease that embitters life springs from. digestive: troubles !- EAs) | ee ten ee In this article, I want to show you what duties should be: performed by your stomach, liver and other organs of digestion, 7 and what happens when, for any reason what-. THE DANGERS soever, these organs cannot perform. these: HC LSTIGA? duties. .Further,.and this is most important. * of all, I want to show you how you~ may) restore those digestive organs to good working | order, and keep them so. = | To begin with, you know you are kept alive by the food you. eat. Every time you move, or even think, you are helping to. wear out your body, but this wastage of the body is replaced by . the food you take, though not all of what you eat can nourish you. The old saying is, that each of us eats a peck ‘of dirt before he dies, but neither dirt, nor anything else which does. not nourish, can sustain our bodies. er sta All the food you eat passes first into your stomach, -where, when your stomach is doing its duty, it is mixed and churned with what are called the gastric juices. During this process in the stomach, your food undergoes a change, and some part of it is then ready to be passed immediately into your blood, but | the rest of your food needs the aid of the liver, and other organs. of digestion, before it can pass into your blood to feed you. | At each stage of its journey, from one organ to another, all the nourishment there is in your food should be made use of, | KICKS and that which reaches the lower bowel INSTEAD OF should be expelled as waste! If your HA’PENCE stomach does not do its duty—does not digest | * food—of course you cannot get the nourish- ment you ought to. Worse still, your food, lying undigested in your stomach, gives off acids and gases, which poison your blood. _ It is like getting no wages, and being kicked besides. 4 : Picts
