Sickness Barred

Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association · Battle Creek, Mich. · Jul 28, 1903

KEEP your vitality above the negative condition, and you will never know disease of any kind. No disease can exist where there is an abundance of pure blood. To get the necessary amount eat nutritious food; to circulate it perfectly take proper exercise; to purify it get fresh air and sunlight. If a perfectly healthy condition of the skin exists, and an even temperature of the surface of the body is maintained, it is impossible to catch cold. Cold-water baths taken every day will do much toward producing the former, proper food and exercise the latter. Nature gives you an alarm in the first chilly feeling. Heed it at once, or pay the penalty. Take a brisk walk or run, breathe deeply, and keep the mouth closed.—Selected.
