The result of this is that when a

him from deriving much benefit from

TAKE TOO LITTLE EXERCISE

leticism may be overdone in some
cases, said one medico to the writer,
but the average man not only neglects
to obtain sufficient exercise, but he
grows positively lazy owing to the
conveniences of everyday life.
Cheap trains, tubes and motor
buses tempt him to ride instead Of
walk on every possible occasion. The
result is that he grows fat, bilious
