The old man who looks out at the world
with clear and healthy eyes cannot help
feeling great qualification at the thought
that his children have inherited from him
no weakness nor tendency to disease.
The healthy old man is the man who has
throughout his life kept his digestion good
and his blood pure. Not one in thon.

Instead OF giving strength to the tissues,
It will force upon them innutrtious mat
ter, and the man will lose flesh and the
more susceptible he is to disease. DR..
