From what poisons?
From poisons that are al-

If the contents of the
bowels are not removed from
the body each day, as nature
intended, these poisonous
substances are sure to be
absorbed into the blood, al-
ways causing suffering and
frequently causing seveee

Sir Charles Tupper agreed with those

Mr. Stemma, Richmond en& Wolfe,

be adapted to the various 'acidities. The
farmers of his district would be solely
