Everything in this world has its COM

formation that baldheaded persons are
immune from pulmonary tuberculosis.
With another cerebral stimulant the
case is slightly different.
Badness is certainly promoted by
mental application. As a general thing
bald persons are intellectual, or. Ut

taxed either by study or by worry, and

be true that mental activity such as
produces badness might also vitalixe
and energize the lungs and heart.
