Others are not 50 seriously affected.
If your i'll health is a result of

it by the following signs or symptoms:
Poor color or real paleness.
2-"Tired-outness" or general

3-Frequent headaches.
4-Loss of appetite.
5-Lack of spirits and ambition.
6-Loss of bodily strength.
The best remedy is one that will

During the influenza endemic

EOR most boys in the United
4 States school days are few. The
average is only a little more than
/ 600 for each boy For many boys
the days are fewer still. While in
school they have little time for gen
eral reading. Lessons in arithmetic,
algebra, geometry, elementary
science, geography, history, compo-
sition, technical grammar, and other
subjects take up most of the time.
But all boys in the country and
city alike may, if they will, find much
time for the reading of good litera-
ture on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays,
during the long vacations, and after
they have quit school. Even if
boy works steadily for 10 hours a
day, 6 days week, he may still find
much time for such reading, if only
he has learned to save his time. has
a taste for reading, and has formed
the reading habit
In a week there are 1853 hours.
Ten hours of work a day for 6 DAYS
make go hours for the week (most
boys work much less; in many cities
and states the days work is limited
to 8 hours) 10 hours a day for eat
ing and sleeping make 70 hours; 3
hours a day for play and recreation
make Il hours; total of 151 hours.
This leaves II hours week, or 884
hours year, for reading-as many
hours as are spent in school by
boy who attends school regularly and
promptly 5 hours a day, 9 months in
the year, with only holidays.
The boy who has learned to use his
time we'll and has little good advice
in selecting books may easily read
two dozen good books year with
out infringing on his time for work,
sleep, or play, and recreation. By
reading two dozen good books
year, any boy may, before he is 20
years old, become familiar with a
large part of the best literature of
the world, fill his mind with helpful
ideas and noble ideals, and gain
much of the finest culture that the
world can offer. Many men have at
tanned all this with less of oppor-
tunity than is presupposed here.
For reasons easily understood,
books on religion are not included
IN this list. But every American boy,
OF whatever church he may be, or
If he be of no church, should know
the English Bible and read it con-
stantly.
A good book should be read more
than once, and every boy should
own some of the books that he reads.
Books are cheap, and money paid for
them is we'll invested and will paw
large dividends in life and happiness
and even in money.
Most cities and towns in the United
States and some country communi-
ties have good public school libraries;
and many public schools, both in CITY
and country, have good collections.
Every community in which boys and
girls live should have a public library
with all the books of this list and
many other in it.
II there is no such library in your
community in the school or else,
where, then you should get all the
boys and girls to work with you and
