diseases whoas very name were Greek to her but according do this wlso mas she was a victim of all "Tot I can walk five miles easily without fatigue" she said "and have not a pain nor an ache I merely feel a little below par" She was commanded to drop all mental ehe must not read or write or work and a change of climate was recommended At this tlms of year a change of climate Is excellent for ell of us hut only a few are enabled to enjoy tho benefits of travel and this young woman does not feel she Is one of ths few XitirCi Own Remedies Knowing her Intimately 1 am convinced that all sba needs to restore herself to perfect health is to fast a little exercise In the open air taka cold sponge baths and breaths properly She would be robust In two months' time If she followed this simple course of treatment faithfully To drop meat coffee tea and other stimulants for one month: to take ten minutes morning and night for deep breathing to walk In the open air an hour a day would euro half tho
