In other words, I read in the paper some time ago, where a little boy—little boy ate the rubbers off of eraser, erasers off of pencils, rather. And he ate the rubber pedal off of a bicycle. Well, they couldn’t understand. They taken him to the doctor, and they sent him to the clinic, and the little fellow—fellow’s body needed sulfur. Well, if—if there’s something in here calling for sulfur, there’s got to be a sulfur to respond to that call. See what I mean? The little boy was taken from the ground where there’s sulfur. The bodies are made from the ground. And there was something in here lacking sulfur and calling for sulfur, so there had to be a sulfur first, the positive, before there could be the negative. And when he called, then they put sulfur in his body, it satisfied him.
