There Is no resolution you could make that woula bring you greater peace and that would enable you to be- more telpfal to your family and friends It is not selfish to make such a premiss t3 yourself. On the contrary, it 13 the first step tov.ards a. truism, because only the citizen vrho keeps himself in excellent health can really serve the community In which ha lives. Here, then, are a lev suggestions for keeping well. They tegin at the top cf your head and go down to the eoles ol your rest. Eyes: Do not strain them. If you hare been putting oC the visit to the oculist, and know that you need new glasses, or If you "have never worn them ana believe you should, telephene ths oculist at ence for an appointment. Eyestrain may mean h iacies. nausea, indigestion, irritability and other nervous disorders, to say nothing of endangering the eight. When sewing or reediiig raise the eyes frequently from the work. ei that the lamps in your house a.re properly shaded, ana that the light falls properly on your book as you read. , a.rs: The best thing to do wlta your ears is to leave them alone except for wasning them carefully each day. IZ they give yea trouble go to a physician, preferably a specialist. Poking in the ears is the most dangerous pastime in the world. Teeth: Brush after each meal.it possible, or certainly in the morning and evening. Brush op and down, nt sideways. Consult yoir dentist about toothpastes and mouthwashes i3uy a new brueii frequently and sterilize your brush every other day (by hanging in the sunshine or dipping in a mild disinfectant or boi.ing water). Make the regular vig:t to the dtntis: prevpn'ive. Stop ihe small cavity before it kto9B. and above aU. keep :- tartar oil liie teetti. Eat a . t.-.on3b: number ol fibrous foods .inre bard chewing.

Vital Organs: Have a regular medical examination once or twice a year. Don't wait for the machinery to get out of order have it inspected regularly to prevent disorders. If all of your organs function properly, don't abuse them. Treat your lungs to frequent air baths; don't give your heart the extra stimulation of too much coffee; give the stomach what It needs, cot more, and give it plenty cf bran and whole wheat and fibrous vegetables to ksep H swept..clean, plenty of vitamines to keep" your general tone as high as pot sible, plenty of mineral 6alts to? the blooa in short, eat wel balanced meais. Avoid too maa sweets, whether you are fat t thin, as they tend to over-acldlt; avoid too rich food, too much eet soning, too many fried dishes. to$ much meat, food or drink that if too hot or too cola. Cultivate th habit of correct posture and an aa$ equate amount of exercise, taken! in whatevr- form is most pi'-asantl Feet: Treat them vcii coddl' them. Give them frequent warrr socks and above a.i jive them roomy shoes of soft leather There Is but one 6ure corn-cure, and that is soft, roomy shoes -rith broad toes. Watch your anls and those of your children. If cue heel runs over more than another, or if both run over quickly, study your asklea carefully. Place a mirror on the floor and walk away from it. watching to see If either ankle is tending In. This is the first symptom cl fiat foot- It Is the danger 6ignal and means get more sensible shoes. And sensible shoes do not necessarily meat heavy, stiff huge ones. Turn tost for instance, should not be heavily shod, and the large woman with small feet ueds the softest of leather.
