We must eat or we cannot hvel
This we all know. But do we ain
know that we die by eating? It is
said we dig our graves with our
teeth. How foolish this sounds.
Yet it is fearfully true. We anAter-
rifed at the approach of the ch&ers
and yellow fever, yet there is dis
ease constantly at our doors and In
our houses far more dangerous,and
destructive. Most people has In
their. own stomachs a poison, more
slow, but quite as fatal as the germs
of those maladies which sweep men
into eternity by thousands without
warning in the times of great epi-
denies. But it is a mercy that, if
we are watchful, we can tell when
we are threatened. The following
are among the symptoms, yet they
do not always necessarily appear in
the same order, nor are they always
the same in different cases. There
is dull and sleepy feeling; bad
taste in the mouth, especially In the
morning; the appetite is change
able, sometimes poor and again It
seems as though the patient could
not eat enough, and occasionally no
appetite at all dullness and dug
gishness of the mind; no ambition
to study or work more or less heed
ache and heayiness in the head;
dizziness on rising to the feet or
moving suddenly; furred and coat

with a greenish-colored expecto-
ration; poor nights rest; a sticky
slime about the teeth and gums;
hands and feet cold and clammy;
irritable temper and bowels bound
up and costive. This disease: has
