BEST BET NEGLECTED.
If the average person got
from his auto as few miles per
gallon of gasoline, as much en-
gine trouble or as irregular ser-
vice as most of us are content
to get from our bodies, he would
make changes. *Dr. Frances
Scott of Smith College says this
in a lecture.
How many people take as
good care of their bodies as
they do of their autos or radios ?
And yet the human body, a
thousand times more delicate
than the auto, radio or any oth-
er machine, is given very little
attention. Its fuel (food) is
fed to it haphazzardly, with lit-
tle of the care we bestow in
buying gas for the auto or bat-
teries or tubes for the radio.
The owner, careful not to put
too much “juice” on the fila-
ments of the radio tubes or too
heavy a task on his auto, re-
peatedly throws too much strain
on his body—especially on its
nerves, stomach and heart.
The noted surgeon, Dr. Chas.
H. Mayo, probably had all this
in mind when he said recently
that civilization can end “mass
diseases” (such as yellow fever)
but individual ailment (such as
cancer and nervous indigestion)
are gaining.
Diet and proper exercise—
neglect of these are the big en-
emies of health, Dr. Mayo em-
phasizes.
“Continuous over-eating is
the bane of our modern exist-
ence.”
Not only over-eating, but eat-
ing the wrong combinations of
foods—putting molasses in the
gasoline tank and sand in the
gears.
One trouble with most people
is that they want to buy good
health and long life in pill or
bottled form. That’s why the
monkey gland experimenters
caught popular fancy. They
brought forth the promise of
health and longevity without in-
dividual effort in the matter of
food and exercise.
This bottle-and-pill fetish is
further illustrated in the annual
drug bill of our country—500
million dollars, 300 million of
which are spent on so-called pat-
ent medicines. Thirty years
ago only 2699 drug items were
on the market. Today the fig-
ure is over 45,000.—San Angelo
Standard.
