How To Live Longer.

America Is waking up to the i'm
portance of better health conditions,
and state and national governments
are taking deeper interest in the sub
ject than ever before. Regardless of
what state or nation may do, however
every individual by following a few
simple rules Of hygiene for himself
may greatly increase the length and
happiness of his own life.
1. Have properly planned and
properly cooked diet. Make study
of this question and have your wife
make study Of it. We eat too much
meat and too much hot. pastry food.
We do not eat enough vegetables,
eggs, fruits, butter and milk. There is
no excuse for any farmer not having
enough Of these nourishing, health
giving food, and with them he can
set table fit for king.
2. Chew your food three times as
long as you have been doing. The
Fletcher principle, "Chew your food
until 1t becomes liquid and practically
swallows ITSELF" is the only correct
guide. Mr.. Fletcher guarantees that
his method will increase the average
workingmans efficiency twenty-five
per cent. in six months.
8. Don't overeat. Proper chewing
however. will practically prevent this
also. Chew your food thoroughly and
your sense Of taste will be satisfied
before you eat too much. It is when
you bolt your food down that you
overeat.
4. Breathe only fresh air. Let II
into your sleeping room, no matter
how cold the weather. The dread of
might air" is absurd. II fresh air
We're only to be had for price, thous-
ands Of poor people would be beg
ging money to buy it, while as it is
they shut it out on every provocation.
Stuffy parlors and sitting rooms and
sleeping rooms with all the windows
down breed headaches and develop
consumption.
5. Drink twice as much water as
you have been drinking. The aver
age person drinks only half enough.
Drink two glasses when you get up
mornings. and as much as you can at
or for an hour before or after.
6. Stop dosing and drugging your
self; never take a patent medicine. If
you are not we'll. by all means avoid
putting your health and your life in
the hands of men you know Aothing
about, and who know nothing about
your ailment. Nine times out Of ten
drug taken into your system when
not needed acts as a virtual poison,
and unless the physician knows the
exact nature of your ailment, the
chances are it Is not needed.
7. Let all intoxicants alone. No
man who begins drinking is sure that
he can keep from drinking immoder-
ately; while the latest medical re-
searches have proved that even the
most moderate drinking injuries ones
nerves and mental powers, lessen
ones ability to resist disease or
weakness. Surgeon General Wymann,
in his recent address on southern
health conditions, sounded a special
note Of warning concerning the inju-
rious effects of alcoholic drinks in
warm climates.
or course there are other things
not to be eglected-frequnt bathing
in a room as warm as the body, eight
hours sleep, and good supply Of
drinking water uncontaminated by
filth or disease-but these seven
Rules are the things most needed by
the average man. They will add years
to your life and life to your years.
