OF oanger by q long
Lkax sseySs way It's Just about
this time that he
begins to learn what temptation Is. and
that no needs good advice.
"when Q boy grows up. in nine cases
. Of ten, he learns the smoking
habit. Tobacco in any form Is bad
enough. but cigarettes are fatal to brain
and body too. II ought to be made a
crime to sell a cigarette to q boy. with
d least q year In prison as the penalty.
The use OF cigarettes affects the nerves
and makes . boy look to alcohol for a
stlmulant. Cigarettes n alcohol to-
gether are worse III rat poison. /
don't know which I'd rather see q boy
Of mine take, and that's . fact. II
anything 10 going to ruin the coming
generation in this country It will be
cigarettes and alcohol. but I'm glad to
sse that the man who drinks to-day
doesn't stand as well with his business
associates ~ the drinking man did ten
years ago. Drinking IL going cut OF
fashion. and the nan who ruins his
constitution and duiis his brain with
alcohol 10 ciassed with the dope nend'
who uses opium or cocaine.
I've found out, In my business OF
building up. that the average young
man who comes TO me for help olames

However" went on Mr.. Brown, u
font mean to say that the man who
nas given up to tobacco and alcohol
might as well lie down n quit. Not

xRY THINK the most remarkable re-
suits I've ever seen were In the
I case OF "A famous physician who
vas brought TO my PIN IIill Farm by
his brother-in-law. who is himself q
physician. A doctor ought to know how
TO take care q; his health. II any one
Toes. But some people know and don't
i've according TO their knowledge. This
aoetor was about as complete a physi-
sal wreck as I ever saw. He was ad-
slcted to the excessive use OF alcoholic
beverages. and was an inveterate
cigarette smoker. When he was
brought 10 my farm he had just recov-
pred from an operation, and his weight
was Just 81 pounds. When he saw me
he cried and said there was no use IN
undergoing treatment, as he considered
his case hopeless. and. any way. he
slhn't believe IN physical exercise.
But his brother-in-law insisted. And
he finally agreed that he'd give the
system IA trial. / got him started by
living him temperate shower baths. and
tlen placed him On the sweat room Just
sung enough to develop circulation, and
then q cold shower to prevent his
catching cold. followed by an alcohol
rub. after which ! allowed him 10 Loaf
around for tho rest OF the day. This
treatment was continued for n week,
and the result was q gain OF four and
cases that wouldn't have been much.
~ I've often had patients sain as much
a. ten or tweive pounds during the
same period.
Z rTER the frst week I started
IA him on Natures c~ire-light
exercise. plain. wholesome
food. plenty OF sunshine. fresh air and
cold shower baths. For . while he
didn't think he had a chance to re-
cover, in spite Of his Improvement. He
didn't have any self confidence left.
He thought that he couldn't walk more
than Q few hundred yards At III most.
One day / took him out Tor q shor.

along until all Of . sudden he noticed
how far We had come-a couple o. miles

he SaSd. I can't possibly walk so far.
'Oh, al right aid ]. we'll take a
short cut around the hill So / took
him the short cut and ! saw to II that
It was much further than the way back
by the road. He was pretty tired when
he got back, and I had to keep 1ollyins
him all the way. Then ] told him thai
We had covered four or Ave miles. and
after that he gave up the idea that he'd
