Starving, mind you, not for the lack of food, but because their digestive organs have lost tone a cannot properly digest the food they eat. Romember, it is not what you eat, but what you digest, that nourishes your body and sustains your life.

Unless food is converted by the digestive processes into a condition in which is can be absorbed into the system, muscles, bong, nerves and brain are slowly but surely starved In other words, they fail to get all the nourishment they need to keep them strong and healthy.

Food in such a case is indeed sometimes positively harmful. It hinders instead of helps, weakens instead of strengthens. How? Because it ferments in the stomach or intestines. Impurities are given off which find their way into the blood and affect disastrously the whole body.

Herwarth, a magnificent type of the de- Germanised military officer for long resi dence abroad had made him a man of the world, was na much at home in the company of American "newspaper men as Co orel Roosevelt himself. He knew the stories they liked best news and otherwise and told them with a vim and smack so truly Transatlantic, that one hardly believed that Herwarth was a Prussian nobleman American correspondents in Berlin never had to go to the Gencrá) Staff cup in hand, humbly begging professional favours.
