Health Leaflets.

By Editor

We have received from the publishers, the Health Publishing Company, Battle Creek, Mich., a series of twenty-five “Health Science Leaflets.” As the best means to give in brief an idea of their range, we here insert the titles as they come. 1, The Code of Health; 2, How to Live a Century; 3, Pure Air; 4, How to Ventilate; 5, A Back Yard Examined; 6, Inventory of a Cellar; 7, What’s in the Well? 8, Cayenne and Its Congeners; 9, A Live Hog Examined; 10, A Peep into a Packing House; 11, Contents of a Tea-Pot; 12, Tea-Tasting; 13, Tea and Nervousness; 14, A Tea Toper; 15, Tea and Tippling; 16, Tobacco Poison; 17, A Relic of Barbarism; 18, Tobacco Blindness; 19, Science vs. Tobacco Using; 20, The Smoke Nuisance; 21, The Rum Family; 22, A Drunkard’s Stomach; 23, A Gin Liver; 24, A Rum Blossom; 25, Alcoholism. Each one is a four-paged leaflet, and is packed full of solid facts and sound instruction on the subjects of health and temperance. Temperance societies of all kinds can greatly add to the strength of their efforts by circulating the matter that is contained in these publications. Families can promote their health, and increase the happiness of their homes by following the directions given, especially in the ones on tea, the packing house, the hog, the well, the cellar, the back yard, how to ventilate, and pure air. In the well, the cellar, the back yard, bad ventilation, and bad air, there lie numberless diseases and thousands of deaths; and we are glad indeed to see good instruction on these things put in such a shape that they may reach everybody. Every family in the land should have a complete set of these leaflets; and every family can have them, for the whole number costs only ten cents. Now don’t say languidly, “Well, I’ll send for them some time,” but go at once and put ten cents in postage stamps, or in some other shape, in an envelope, and send to Pacific Press, Oakland, Cal., or to Good Health Publishing Company, Battle Creek, Mich.; get these leaflets; follow their advice; and so be healthy, happy, and wise.
