The February Number of Life and Health

By Editor

The February number of Life and Health is now ready. It is essentially a “home number,” being filled with valuable instruction especially applicable in the home life. It will, therefore, be appreciated by the general public, and will yield the workers liberal returns for their services.
Its general articles include one from the well-known physician, S. A. Knopf, M. D., of New York, on “Sun, Air, and Water.” Dr. Kress treats the subject of “Pneumonia” in a very plain, practical way, and Dr. Leadsworth sets forth the “Contagion of Health.” Eminent scholars write upon “Consumption,” “Fake Meat Inspection,” “The Cause of Tuberculosis,” “Food Poisoning,” “Home Treatment of Tuberculosis,” “Prevention of Grip,” etc.
Dr. Prince gives an impressive contrast of the physiological methods of sanitariums and the drug practise, and shows why the drugs have a deteriorating effect.
In the Mothers’ Department are good things upon the manner of spending the “Winter Evenings at Home with the Children,” “The Punishing of Children,” “The Regulation of the Food of Infants,” etc., and Dr. Lauretta Kress prescribes a simple, yet effective, treatment for croup. Throughout the number, the children receive a good share of the attention of our writers.
Mrs. Fitch gives some new and surprising revelations in connection with her talks on “Dairy Products” and “Substitutes for Butter.” Mrs. E. G. White presents the power of prayer in behalf of the sick, and sets forth the principles that should guide those who pray for the sick. The entire number is filled with most practical and essential information in connection with the care of the health, and the prevention and cure of diseases most prevalent at this season of the year.
The outside cover of the February number is very attractive, being printed in colors. This number will be one of the best sellers we have ever issued. Forty thousand copies are provided for before the journal is printed. Doubtless it will have the largest circulation of any number thus far published. We invite all who are anxious to do some good, and who have the time to devote to this work, to correspond with us about the circulation of this popular health journal.
Price, single copy, 10 cents; 2 to 25 copies, to one address, 5 cents; 25 to 500 copies, 4 cents; annual subscription price, 75 cents.
