A Trial Package of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets Sent Tree. Within the last 20 years there has sprung into existence theories by the scire relative to the kinds of food that hu nan beings should eat, and should •void. With the tremendous increase in nervous and stomach diseases which are caused by the strenuous life of this neurotic, neurasthenic age in which we live, we are constantly having our at tention called to some food faddist’s “new idea” on the subject of alimen tation. Most prominent among these theo ries is the vegetarian who insists that meat was never intended for the hu man stomach, despite the fact that his ancestors for 6.006 years or more, used it as their principal article of diet; and the old patriarchs of Biblical History who lived to prodigious old ages, were meat eaters. All of the great nations of history have been users of meat, and all of the most powerful and advanced countries of today employ it extensive ly in their dietaries, and their superior development and high degree of civil ization arc in strong and striking con trast to the decadent and degenerate nations of Asia and the tropics, whose inhabitants are vegetarians. Another fallacy which has lately be come a fad. is the so-called “lowpro teid” diet. Now, the foods which are rich in proteids are the ones which build up nerve, brain, muscle and blood, so that any great reduction in the amount of proteid used simply means semi starvation for the most important renters of the system —the ones on which we depend the most to enable us- to successfully fight the battles of life Those nations whose people use foods containing but little proteid are never of large frame or well-built. The Japanese, who have always been small of stature, have, since adopting a more liberal proteid diet, shown a remark able increase in size, vigor and gen eral development; and it is only since Japan became a meat eating nation that it has developed into a world power. Still another theory lately advanced is that sugar, pepper and salt are ga’ trie irritants and irritate the mucous membrane of the stomach, although it is known that sugar possesses a high calorie value, while pepper and salt as sist digestion rather than interfere with it, as is claimed. The no-breakfast plan, the two-meal per dav. and even the one meal daily has been advocated, while some advise a two or three weeks' fast, during which all food is withheld from the stomach “to give it a rest.” complete- Jv ignoring the fact that the system s tissues are being constantly torn down and cast off. and new material to re build them must be supplied from tho food. , It is utter nonsense to concern one s self about all these absurd and illogi cal theories, as life is entirely too short, and there are other things requir ing our attention. Eat what you want when vou want it, and as much as the system' needs to replenish its waste, and then take one or two vi Stuart • Dvspepsia Tablets, and forget all about food fads and stomach troubles.
