DEVICES OF THE BODY.
The Cough. snsszs and sIsh A.,
Measures OF Self Protsction.


Measures OF Self Protection.
One of the most interesting facts
about the human body is its power
OF self preservation-its power Of
evading or overcoming the thou
sand and ole conditions which, un-
less corrected, would be injurious
or destructive.
Among the most common of
these acts of self preservation are
the cough, the sneeze and the sigh.
Every one is familiar with these
acts, yet few people ever ask them
selves the cause, and fewer still
could explain them.
One of the simplest of the body's
devices for self protection is the
cough. The cough is merely blast
of air propelled from the lungs in
such a manner as to forcibly dis
lodge some foreign substance which
has been drawn into the throat, the
windpipe or The tubes leading to
the lungs.
