Armenia is simply lack of blood.

gerous diseases with which growing

1t is common because the blood so

allowed to Overstudy, overwOrk and
suffer from lack of exercise. 1t is dan
gerous because of the stealthiness Of its
approach, often being well developed
before its presence is recognized, and
because of its tendency togrow so steadi-

may run into consumption.
