which arises from eating too P!entltus

remedy wotsd be TO eat less and thertby
derive the additional advantage Of avo.d-
ing the sin of gluttony.
TO cohclude---1 he greatest philosop?sTga
and physicians uniformly condemn the NC
oftobacco. DR.. Franklin, a few montt oe-
fore his death, declared with exultatidno
that he had never used tobacco, in any waT
in the course of his long life: and il is b
lieved that Washington could make lis
same boast. Dr.. Rash has written an
say against it from which several Of tn
facts, here introduced, are derived.
