Very simple. Remove the cause
and you remove the effect. II a man
is developing face that provokes
an impulse toward a lemon squeezer,
he should at once inspect the condi-
tion Of his stomach. II he discovers
that his digestion is perfect he should

That sort OF talk Is designed TO let

the nervous experience OF this coun-
