double responsibility the women in
business should remember that there
are four essentials to good health.
They are:
Eight hours sleep in bedroom well
supplied with fresh air.
Regular exercise both morning and
night.
Sensible clothing chosen with due
regard for the seasons.
Wholesome food eaten in modera-
ton.
Without these women. nor men for
that matter. cannot maintain their
proper health and physical well being
for any length Of time.
No woman should try working ION
her nerves" This practice may be
kept up for quite while. when pleas
ure or the demands of business tempt
one to rob herself of the necessary
amount OF rest. But sooner or later,
however one must foot the bills and
nature imposes a high rate of interest
on delinquent accounts.
Because of the war more women
than ever are working under condi-
tions which produce physical strain.
They should recognize this and out
side of working hours devote them
selves to getting sufficient rest, even
though certain pleasures have to be
cut out.
