Don’t Do It

Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association · Battle Creek, Mich. · Jul 25, 1871

DON’T DO IT.— Don’t smoke. Don’t chew. Don’t snuff. Don’t drink spirituous liquors of any kind. Drink pure water only, and don’t dilute it with tea, coffee, etc.; it will not hurt you if taken full strength. Don’t make an omnibus of your stomach, and act as though there was always “room for more inside,” when it is filled to repletion. Don’t be irregular in your habits. Don’t be lazy. Don’t overwork either body or brain, if it is possible to avoid it. Don’t fail to secure an abundance of nature’s sweet restorer, balmy sleep. Don’t always look exclusively upon the dark side of things. Don’t fret. Don’t do any of these things, and you may feel very certain of enjoying good health and peace of mind.—Sel.
