Sound Sense and Healthy Living
THERE is nothing so unfashionable to-day as sound sense, while some foolish fad will draw people as honey attracts flies. FROM personal observation, I know that the food served in the mansions of the rich is frequently as unwholesome as what the poor eat in the slums. FROM a health standpoint, it is vastly more important to wash the inside of the body than it is to cleanse the outside, although neither should be neglected. LET me say that for every boy who has been stunted by being put to work before he was sixteen, there are a thousand boys who have burned out their brains, ruined their souls, and wrecked their bodies, by cigarette smoking. IT is absolutely certain that for every person who ever caught anything besides water from the common drinking cup, there are ten thousand persons who have caught mental, moral, and physical damnation for this world and the world to come, from the wine cup.
