About Jour
HEALTH
Things You Should Know
THE SEWER

The large bowel, the colon, is
the principal sewer of the human
body. If the main sewer of a city
becomes DISTRACTED for long, its
tributaries are soon overloaded
with impurities, stagnation results,
and the health of the town is serb
ously endangered. So it is with
the human body; the health and
vigor of the entire being are I'M
dermined, when the main sewer is
rot functiOning. We call such a
condition constipation; 1 wish I
could think of a term that conveyed
more of a warning to the victim
of his own inat5ention.
I believe l am safe in saying
that, if the colon be kept in proper
condition, eighty per centO of our
chronic ailments would never aP-
pear; isn't that sort of reward big
enough to be worth contending for!
Isn't such a prize worth the effort3.
The chief cause Of constipation is
neglect. What species Of neglect
is fraught with more danger?
Where is the profit, if we gain a
fortune and lose the health?
Do you drink at least six to eight
glasses of water daily? Do you
take the necessary active exercise?
Do you drink two or three glasses
of water as soon as you leave your
bed each morning? Do you eat
plenty of fruits, green vegetables,
coarse breads, and cereals? If You
do, you are cutting out over fifty
per cent of your doctors bills. You
are prolonging life by the best COS
sible methodj you are keeping our
body in the best possible cond' ion
to resist infection, especially il
you supplement your dietary ON
duct with plenty of refres n3
sleep. I wonder if you incl ed
any of the above regulations in
your New Yea resolutions foa
