The Medicine Habit.
From the Columbus Ohio state journal


The people of this country spend
$500, 00o. 0c6 for drugs to cure their va
rious diseases. Most OF these are self
administered. which is the source OF
much harm. They don't cure any
body. Very often they change the
malady to something worse There
are 2.00o. 100000 doses Of quinine taken
annually in this country. While In
come cases 1t may do good. people
could do better without 1t. Kidney
cures are an abomination. People
Liver pills don't act on the liver and
are distinctly harmful. All sleep pro-
ducing drugs should be outlawed, ex-
cept in rare cases. and under the d.
rection of a sensible physician. Purga-
tives and laxatives should be omitted
Their results are generally harmful.
But get out of the drug-taking bust
ness and rely mostly on right living.
All of which advice we take from q
