Health, happiness, vigor and long life are the gifts which an active colon gives you—and a lazy color! takes away. Your colon is the last five feet of your digestive canal. It is your sew erage system I your garbage can, so to speak. Keep it clean and you are well and happy; let it stagnate and it will distill the poisons of decay, fermentation (gas) and putrefac tion into your blood, poisoning your brain and nerves so that you are restless, irritable and blue; poison ing your heart so that you are weak, listless and lazy; poisoning your lungs so that your breath is heavy or foul; poisoning your stom ach and digestive organs so that you are bloated, belching and un comfortable with gas pains; poison ing your blood so that your skin looks yellow, sallow and unhealthy; poisoning every part and organ of your body, through your blood, making you look and feel old and ugly long before your time; making your joints and your back stiff and rheumatic; your eyes dull and your brain sluggish. By the perfect law of Nature, your colon should empty itself three times a day—within an hour after eating. Does your colon work that well? If not,»it has lost its tone. What do we mean by tone? Your colon is a hollow muscle. Its walls are made up of long muscle fibres SHEET MUSIC We now have a large selection of the latest hits in Sheet Music.
