"WHACKS"
And What They Meaau
When Old Mother Nature gives yoi
a "whack" remember "there's a rea
son," ao try sud say "thank you;" thej
aet about finding what you have doiu
to demand the rebuke, and try and get
back Into line, for that's the bappy
place after all.
Curious how many highly organized
people fail to appreciate and heed the
first little, gentle "whacka" of the good
old bame, hut go right along with the
bablt, whatever it may be, that causet
her disapproval. Whiskey, Tobacco.
Coffee, Tea or other unnatural treat
ment of the body, until serious Illness
sets In or some chronic dlsesse,
Some people seem to get on very
well with those things for a while, and
Mother Nature apparently carea but
little what tbey do.
Terhapa she has no particular plans
for them snd thinks It little use to
waste time In their training.
There are people, however, who seem
to be selected by Nature to "do
things." The old Mother expects them
to carry out some department of her
great work. A portion of these select
ed ones oft and again seek to stimu
late and then deaden tbe tool (the
body) by some one or more of the
drugs Whiskey, Tobacco, Coffee, Tea,
Morphine, etc.
You know all of these throw down
the same class of alkaloids in chemi
cal analysis. They stimulate and then
depress. They take from man or worn-
n the power to do bis or her best
work.
After these people have drugged for
a time they get a hint or mild "whack"
to remlud them that they have work
to do, a mission to perform, and should
be about the business, but sre loafing
along the wayside and become unfitted
for the fame and fortune that waits
for thera if they but stick to tbe conrse
tul keep the body clear of obstruc
tions so It csn carry out the behests of
the mtnd.
Sickness is a call to "come up high
er. Juese ntnts come in various
forms. It may be stomach trouble or
bowels, heart, eyes, kidneys or general
nervous prostration. You may depend
upon it when a "whack" comes It's a
warning to qnlt some abuse and do tbe
right and fair thing with the body.
Perhaps It Is coffee drinking that
offends. That Is one of the greatest
causes of human disorder among
Americans.
Now then if Mother Nature Is gentle
with you and only gWee light, little
"whacks" at first to attract attention.
don't abuse ber consideration, or aha
will soon bit you bsrder, sure.
And you may also be sure she win
hit yon very, very hard If you insist
ou following the way you have been
doing.
It seems hard work to give up a
habit, and we try all sorts of plans to
charge our HI feelings to some other
cause than the real one.
Coffee drinkers when 111 will attrib
ute the trouble to bad food, malaria,
overwork and what not, but they keep
on being sick and gradually getting
worse until they ace finally forced to
quit eutirely. even the "only one cup
a day." Then they begin to get bet
ter, and unless they have gone lone
enough to set up some fixed organW
disease, they generally get a tirC:

It Is essy to qnlt coffee at once and
