EATING THE BREAD OF IDLENESS.

Most people forget to take a meal off from their bill of fare when they stop work for a day. Many men who have led active lives on their farms, and have so developed their financial resources that they can "settle down" and are not obliged to work so hard, forget that they should reduce their bill of fare when they stop manual work, and the result is chronic indigestion. Many a man gets into a condition called "softening of the brain," just because he retires from active work, moves to town, and forgets to diminish his bill of fare. He not only eats too much, but he eats indigestible food, as the result of which he suffers from indigestion, and wishes himself back on his farm again.—Good Health.
