excuse in rational. hygiene.
It is to Be expected, in Other words
that the human system. like every in
tricate piece Of mechanism. viii in
time become clogHed with tie results
and accumulations OF its own work
The friction Of it, several partas and
the wear and tear Of constant usage.
are productive of debris Of v6lious
sorts, Just rs In the case with machin-
cry of any kind; and mem are excusable
for believing that 1t least once . year
they may with propriety seek 70 .elimi-
nate the refuse matter which has aocu-
mulated
And 80 the sarsaparillas Of various
makes, especially where they are pre-
scribsd BY the family physieisn. may
be said to be worthy Of their populari-
ty and the confidence which Is reposed
in them
Il il doubtful, howevsg, II the neces-
sity for the use of 'speing medicines"
is especially urgent with those who
have continually, throughout the year,
maintained proper regard Tor the ro-
quirements Of the body.
Among those who have the care OF
engines, or other machinery. Il = con
sidered breach of duty 70 permit the
accumulation Of the most u&nnte par.
ticles of rust or dirt Of a o1rt On
the contrary, the greatese igjde u
taken in the shiny sppeari1 90
bearings and all the di6erenS( no
surfaces Of the machine How ~
more, then, ought we 10 be consta6
solicitous that the human organHg
shall not be hindered by the seenmul1s'
tion Of useless debris!
II is possible TO do this surely and
safely by attending day by day 70 the
secretioos Of the body. The waste
matter Of the body. Is we al know, is
got rid Of by four great chsnnels-the
lungs. the intestines. the kidneys and
the skin.
by carefully watching the work Of
this branch Of the human mechanism
insisting that each part shall faithfully
perform its own peculiar work. we shall
insure better results from the general
system. besides lesaening 70 . marked
degree the necessity for any periodical
or spasmodic attempts ut purifying the
blood Companion
