the big things, the most difficult.
that a person can do that will
eoUnt most in maintaining health,
but it's the little daily habits and
careless customs that count most,
either for or against health. For
instance:
One can keep their fingers out
0f their nose and mouth and
teach their children tha same.
When one coughs, he can always
turn his head and use his hand-
kerchief after having time to
reach it. One can wash his hands
before meals for his own protect
ion and after meals for the pro
tection of others. One can avoid
close proximity with other per
sons who are coughing and sneei
ing and thus avoid a cold for him
self. In short, one can practice
personal cleanliness in addition to
the regular soap and water clean

chances against diseases.
Again, the individual can at
least sleep in fresh air at night
and can walk in it during the

that he never poisins his body

or smoking or by any other form
of excess. Excesses are peculiar
