Traces of the doctrine have been pointed out in the

Reasons Why All Should Use the
Reacti0nary Health Lift.

1t makes strong appeals to the common sense
every man or woman in every walk of life
furnishes an exercise which may and should be in
troduced into every house; which may be practiced
at all seasons in all kinds of weather. by persons of
both sexes, all ages; and degrees of strength or
much In praise of it, and no one can afford to do
without it. All who investigate thoroughly, it,
and consider it invaluable and indispensable. 1t is
the safest, simplest, cheapest and most efficient
medicine ever discovered. No claim is set up for it
which is unscientifc or impracticable.
General.-It is the best of rest. 1t is perfectly
safe. No harm ever came from its use. 1t strains
to the affected parts By its the health is easily
maintained. The purchase of a Reactionary LITTER
is the best kind Of economy. The convenience of
having one in the house is very great
Mind and Brain.-It invigorates and
strengthens the brain, and renders il more active
and ef.clent in al its operations.
steep.-lt is the simplest and safest narcotic. 1t
is the most natural and probably the best means of
inducing sound and refreshing sleep.
Nerves.-It is wonderful tonic to the whole
nervous system. 1t is most efficaeious remedy in
paralysis, if t,ken in time.
Lungs, Throat and Voice. 1t gives special
expansion and greater mobility to the chest; en-
ton, and brings the voice fully under control
As preventive and cure of lung diseases it has no
equal.
Exercise-It is the most perfect exercise for man
or woman, furnishing the best form of physical
culture and development in the safest easiest
most thorough and expeditions manner. 1t is
better than the gymnasium, and free from its
dangers; cheaper than the saddle; less iaborious
than boating, and infinitely better than drugs in
majority of chronic diseases. 1t rounds and hardens
the muscles, and educates them into ever ready
faithful and efficient servants of the will.
