SPRING CLEANING

This is the first day Of spring
when already the housewives am
planning for their spring house.
cleaning. No matter how careful
the housekeeper IL in her care Of
the house and its daily cleaning
It seems necessary to have q general
thorough, houseclsaning every SC
often.
The body is sometimes referred
to as the house we live in, but it il
q sek-adjusting household to . large
extent.
The blood travelling around
through the arteries, capillaries, and
veins carries the nutriment to the
little individual cells Of the body
and also carries away waists.
The nervous system, the muscular
system, and the bony structure are
like servants in the body with thei,
own work to do, each one more OF
less dependent upon the other, but
in health working together in har.
mony for the greatest good to the
whole body. It should not be neces.
sary for the body to have any defin.
ite time for housekeeping, as the
functions Of the body are 80 ar.
ranged that assimilation and elm.
ination should be properly balanced;
but, because of errors in living,
unsanitary surroundings, overwork
and q multitude Of other causes. the
average person is found to be suf-
fering from some one or more dis
orders which come because the body,
for some reason, is not able to keep
itself clean.
There is great hope that in the
future men will live so carefully
that there will be a proper balance
and coordination between all of the
bodily functions. Man will then
live in health much longer than he
does today.
But there is so much to be known
and we must admit that we know
50 little today about the care of the
body!
As we are experimenting without
health problems, sometimes getting
results and sometimes finding we
are making mistakes, would it not
be wise to occasionally use some
simple measures. which will bring
about q good bodily housekeeping
and 80 help all of the bodily forces ia
q new start? This may seem ia
the reader to be sensible idea.
But just when are you going to
start following this plan?
You made good resolutions on New
Years Day. Suppose you start this
very day, which is the First day Of
spring" and follow a careful regime
for the next few days which will
give your body . chance to eliminate
accumulated bodily toxins.
No, ! don't mean tomorrow--o1
next week-but Today!
As the Scriptures say, "Now il
the accepted time; now is the day
Of salvation!"
Let's all miss our next regula,
meal and take instead q meal Of
some one kind Of fruit, such q
oranges, apples, pineapple, or per
haps grapejuice. Then let's con
tinue missing our regular meals
for several days and just substitute
fruit for each meal.
When taking this fruit diet thu
body has better chance to throw
out accumulated wastes while no
burdened with the work of assimilat
ing food. Four or five days of thu
fruit diet will bring about very re-
markable changes. Even though 70,
appear to be in good health today
you do not know how good you ca,
feel after q few days Of such re
stricted dieting. Your step vii
become more elastic, your min,
clearer, and those who have annoy
ing ache and pains will find thes,
symptoms will disappear like magic
You can take q Laxative to hel,
matters along, but I would advise
you to use one or two enemas 8
day in place of any cathartic Of
laxative, as the results will be much
better.
After a few days of the fruit
fast, start following the menus nnh
