SHORT, M. fhe body of the average man contains phosphorus sufficient to make 483,840 matches, enough to fill about 6,000 boxes, allowing eighty matches to the box. Phosphorus is one of fourteen ele ments entering inta the composition of the body. It is divided among the bones, flesh, nervous system, and other organs. Without phosphorus the brain would be weak, the body feeble, and the bones would disintegrate, leaving man a squidgy invertebrate squirming in the dust. The perfect health of the human body requires a perfect balance of the constituent elements of which it is com posed. The carbon, iron, lime, sulphur, sodium, etc., must all be replaced as they are used up in human energy. Take all the iron from the blood and the circulation stops- That's death. Change the proper proportion of these sub stances ' to each other, destroy their natural balance in the body, and. you destroy the balance of health. THE FOOD WE EAT Where do these essential elements of vital force come from? From the food we eat. How are they extracted and distributed to the several organs theyt sustain? They are extracted and dis tributed by the stomach and other or gans of digestion and nutrition. What, happens when the stomach is "weak?' The food is only partly digested and sa iw i - -t XJ similated. And then what? Then the balance of health is destroyed and there's blood "trouble," nerve "troubles" lung "trouble," heart "trouble," or some other "trouble" with the vital organs of the body.
