To expand the chest and

mouth closed, long, full breaths, so
as to carry the air to every part
of the lungs. BY doing this every
day, night and morning, you will
greatly improve your health.
Other things being equal, deep
hreathers live longer than short
breathers.
Always stand and walk erect,
and when sitting keep the back
straight.
Do not use Intoxicating drinks
or narcotics; their use makes re-
covery from consumption more
difficult, and tends TO induce the
disease.
II you have a cough be examin-

towns there are dispensaries Where
such examinations are made free
of cost. If your cough is caused
by the germs Of tuberculosis, con-
