_
John Pomeroy, the remarkable
New Zealander, who is now
ing Macon and attracting so
attention by his novel theories,
th inks that civilized man lacks
common sense. Pomeroy claims
that most ill heglth is due to

“It is impossible always to lead
the active outdoor life nature de

to exercise the body sufficiently to
make the gastric juices wholly ac¬

the fresh air and sueshine. It
also impossible for us to get abso¬
lutely fresh vegetable food all the
time, and this, more than anything
else, is the cause of so many under

looking people. But it is possible
to treat the stomach, already
ened by tl.ese mistakes, with at
least a little consideration.
If yeople thought half as much
of their stomachs as they do their
pocketbooks, there wouldn’t
much sicUness here.
“If we would sit down quietly
to a plain, cominon-s6nse meal, eat
slowly, and chew every mouthful

tbe same furniture here for less.
We pass this information to you in order to give you a chance to
