perfectR If you are not, you had
better arrange for a careful med
zeal examination. Little defects
or impairments, if neglected, may
cause untold suffering and loss.
Discover them in time by having
your body inspected.
IF you have regular family

thorough overhauling of your
body. This inspection, which

chest and abdominal measure
ments and survey of the general
bodily condition. Examination
of eyes, ears, nose, throat, mouth,
teeth, tongue, skin, glands, lungs,
heart, circulation, stomach, liver,
and other abdominal organs. Ex-
animation for evidences of rup-
ture, varicose veins, faulty pos
ture, fat-foot, spinal curvature,
deformities and asymetries. Tests
of the vision and hearing. Tests
of the brain and nervous system
for paresis, locomotor ataxia and
other central nervous affections
or nervous instability. Chemical
and microscopic examination of
the urine. Blood pressure tests.

tors, or you may write to The Ma
tional Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis,
105 east 22d street, New York.

for another date.
"Do not imagine because you
feel perfectly well you need no
examination. 1t will be worth
the cost of examination for you
to know positively just where
your health account stands. Out
of thousands who have been ex-
amined and found to be impaired,
only 10 per cent imagined there
