AIR AND SUNSHINE.

Pure air twenty-four hours in the day, and sunshine whenever the sun shines—these are the prime requisites of healthful living. There are but few germs that can beat down the barriers built up in the body by these two great constitution-builders. They have proved themselves the most valiant defenders of human life against that most tenacious enemy of the race, consumption. In fact, no other remedy worthy the name has yet been discovered, tho there are scores, if not hundreds, of claimants for the honor. Keep the consumptive in the open air twenty-four hours a day, except when it is snowing or raining. He will not take cold, if warmly clad; and he stands a better chance of recovery than through any other course of treatment known to the world at the present time. At the same time that he is throwing off this disease, he is having his entire system renovated and disinfected, and made stronger to resist the ravages of other diseases.

And this advice to tuberculosis patients is just as good for those who never have experienced its ravaging touch. Pure air and sunshine—they are yours by divine right; insist on having them.
