really the care of the body and health,
but they must live it. Summer, with
everything il nature calling everyone
out of doors "o'er the hills and far

these things learned into practice and

everyone will be surprised at the great
gain to themselves in health and hap
piness during the summer months.

THE NEW HYGIENE.
do not swallow food without a
reasonable amount of chewing. Use
no ice water nor any iced drinks at
meals
Drink pure water between meals,
frequently adding fruit juices to it.
Drink two glasses when rising in the
morning and the same when retiring.
Drink water slowly in between times
when thirsty. Nature governs thirst
according TO the food We eat.
S-Eat whole wheat -four products.
Excess az bad food is the rule.
Good food will seldom be taken in ex-
cess of bodily strength or need.
5-Sleep next to an open window or
outdoors: sleep seven or eight hours;
insist on pure air at all times: never
remain in a close apartment; breathe
deeply; cultivate abdominal breathing.
6-Keep the body supple by bathing
and exercise; court the sunshine; live
naturally; abandon flannel and under
wear.
Forget how old you are; forget
/ all unpleassntness.
/ S-Busy yourself eight hours daily
with congenial employment; adopt for
a motto do it now" do some kind act
every day if it is only to speak kindly
! to a cur dog.
! 9-In cold weather don't coddle your
/ self; learn to discard heavy wraps,
even in the coolest weather. Cultivate
the resistance powers of the body.
1O-Get a hobby; don't ride it to
death, but have it handy for an occa-
sional Canter.
11-Practice daily auto-suggestions
for health, happiness and success;
don't fear anything-God or man or
devil-cultivate will power, cheerful
ness, optimism and mental poise, and
believe in yourself stand and sit erect.
12-Remember, mistakes will occur
at first, and when they do forfeit fol-
lows. Each forfeit in pain or sickness
is registered in the cell life of the
body and the final forfeit is life itself.
Nature is generous and friendly, but
eaxct, and she demands the penalty /!
we disobey her laws.
