cold will, of course, disappear. Instead of being afraid of draughts, make a special effort to live in them as much as possible; instead of covering the body with heavy clothing day and night, use barely sufficient to keep warm, and no more; instead of eating without appetite or endeavoring to excite a false one, do not eat until your craving for food becomes intense, and usually, if several meals are missed, the cure will be much speedier because of this abstinence. Of course, vigorous exercise, long walks, deep breathing and the increased activity of the skin, produced by exposing the surface of the body directly to the air, and by friction with a soft bristle brush, will be of great benefit in eliminating these impurities and thus bringing about normal health.
