A man must reap as he sows. If he sows
ill-health he will reap ill-health. If he
neglects his health the weeds of disease
will grow up and choke il.
1t is a daily and hourly marvel that men
will recklessly neglect their health, when
a moments thought should tell them that
they are counting death. 1t lies in most
every mans power to live to a green old
age. If a man would only take the same
care of himself that he does of his horse, Or
COW, or dog, he would enjoy good health.
When a man owns a hundred dollar horse,
and it gets sick. he does not waste any time
about doctoring him up. When his garden
gets full of weeds, he doesn't delay about
roofing them out, for he knows they will
choke out his vegetables. When he is out
of sorts, sick, nervous, headachey, has no
appetite and is restless and sleepless at
night, he pays little attention to it. The
result is consumption, nervous prostration
or some serious blood or skin disease. DR..
