Text Appearing Before Image:
excused for indulging,is that which must come over every one in observing the general ill-health with which we are surrounded, by the unfortunate customsand habits which we recklessly observe and blindly pursue. Theyare so multitudinous, and so impertinently insinuating, that they maybe compared to the insects of summer. They creep into a manshat; they crawl into his boots; they nestle in womans waistbands,and they conceal themselves in her trailing drapery. They fall intothe food we eat, and drop into the liquids we drink. With thegreediness of fabled vampires, they suck out the little brain some CONCLUSION. 215 people bring into the world with them, leaving a sting that destroysall moral sense. They penetrate not only the tenement basementbut the drawing-rooms of the affluent. They mark the faces of thepoor with pock-pits, and cause the rich to hobble about on gold-mounted crutches. Science must find a cure for their sting, andcommon sense must devise means for their extermination.
Text Appearing After Image:
A CURE FOR MELANCHOLY. CHAPTER III. PREVENTION OF DISEASE.
