DISEASE IS INVITED.

n;...se is the accumulation of GER
:. torees. The first cause is the prin-
[p,l cause. Without a first cause the
r., causes could not follow; they
IA not be able to fit. Without
amor soil, blowing, sowing, rain, sun
r.. and other factors in cultivation,
a,,. would be no harvest. The first
-. is the first line of defense. The
,.oDd line of defense will never be
,,,ebpd by the enemy until the first
Frs is broken. Honest thought is the
a,t line of defense in health. AS soon
:. honest thought is replaced by the
,.bsr kind of thought disease is in
rited.
The conscience is the real battle
mound; the eternal struggle between
Is natural enemies of health and dis
case can be traced to the mind, to the
npseience, to the will. 1t is the habit
/ If the lazy, the indolent, the inefficient,
as ignorant, the slothful, the imi-
stor. the careless and some others to
think of disease as a curse causeless
rather than as an invited guest. But
aperfcial thinking and what follows
law thinking will not stand the acid
test of scientific truth. Disease grows
from thought through very many con-
sequences until the full fruition of
form that even a fool can recognize
and understand. The beginning of all
finite conditions can be traced to
thought Why do some Of US pretend
TO think that disease is an exception
b the order of things9
Think of life as an incline, as a
tOboggan, and the beginning as a con-
vergence of two inclines. One way
leads up, the other down. If up is
good thought; down will be the oppo-
site, bad. Good health, wealth, riches
and life; bad is disease, poverty,
misery and death. Cleanliness consist
emily cOurted controls conservation.
Cleanliness invites health. Disease is
invited sometimes slowly but always
invited if it visits us. 1t is in accord
with reason, that we reap what we
SOW. All theories agree on that point
if they agree on no other. All things
have a cause, though sometimes be-
yOnd present efforts to ascertain.
When disease is invited it acts in
accord with the force of the invita-
ton If the invitation is long drawn
out, attenuatcd, half hearted as some
say, the response will be long drawn
out, attcnuatcd, half hearted. If fear
Of nature and life rule the individual
the harvest will be disease. Fresh air
and eOncOmitants all the time, means
life all the time, eternal life. Air
laden with tobacco smoke is not fresh
ar and the result will be true to
natural law.
Disease is invited by wrong, imma-
'ure and insufficient thought which goes
later into action of stupendous and
0Oetul consequences. Disease and
Death are end products seen after the
Other points on the toboggan slide have
Oeen overlooked or forgotten.
Nations rs well as individuals are
governed by that same law of cause

and effect. Disease In a nation pro-
ceeds from the same cause, the mind,
the conscience, the will of individuals.
What can a nation or an individual
say in the face of natural evidence of
disease7 Every individual and every
nation must accept and treat earned,
contracted, and invited calamities,
called diseases.
Disease is invited by defective think
ing which invites laziness of every
kind and then the toboggan slide of
horrible names too numerous to men,
tion.
Ease is invited by the good honest
thought that precedes the daily men
tai and physical bath. Start the day
clean.
Headaches, constipation, misery, pat
ent medicine, "colds," coughs, la
grippe, chilliness, pain, fear, insanity
and all disease is invited by those who
must entertain in them. They start
the day unclean.
Doctors of theology, or divinity
doctors of law, of pharmacy, of den
tistry and of medicine are here for
service. When you need them do not
delay. If you delay you invite greater
calamities.
Nature transports through air, water,
earth the animal, mineral and vege-
table kingdoms our metaphysical as
well as our physical needs. When you
take more or less than is compatible
with ease, you have invited disease.
Your guest must come. You may need
assistance to help to entertain or eject
your invited guest.
Invite health or invite disease. You
will need assistance to entertain either
POsterity needs the best example. Your
eyes, teeth, face, form and figure tell,
your actions, every organ of the body
tells if disease it invited. Your con-
science tells best.
Is disease invited? If a daily physi-
cal bath is irksome and incompatible
with your daily programme, you are
not 100 percent clean in body and per-
feet circulation is not invited but dis
ease is invited. If you do not find
time for a daily mental bath disease
of the mind is logically invited; your
association begets assimilation.
Disease whether mental or physical
never comes unless by invitation.
Make the application as broad as dis
lance and the law always applies be-
cause it is natural and omnipotent.
Anger and war are nervous diseases.
Come back to the mind, the conscience,
the will. What causes anger, envy,
hate, madness, a quarrel, war, slavery7
What is the most potent cause of in
fiammation? What will start a fire
quicker than fre9 Nothing. Smoking
is the most widely diffused habit. 1t
requires fire. Does it infiame the will,
the mind? Is it an international in
vitation to international disequili-
brium? We are suffering with those
who have individual disease; we suffer
on account of national ignorance and
we suffer on account of international
war, the terrible international accu-
mutation of error, disease.

Get right on the water wagon; Miss

When you're sleeping in the gutter

And you dream that you are living in
the regions down below,
You are not beyond redemption, though
your chances r but few,
Get right on the water wagon; Miss
Prohi is calling you.
When you wake the morning after and
your heads about to burst, (
land Of all the human ailments you're
against about the worst,
Then's the time to turn a new leaf
clean the slate and start anew,
Get right on the water wagon; Miss
Prohi is calling you.
Yes, she's calling "Come to Green
wood! from temptation you'll be
free,
Here the people all drink water ane

And the perfume of the flowers, min
gled with the evenings dew,
Helps to keep you on the wagon, whe'
Miss Prohi's called to you.
