"Pure
water
is
needful
for
your
health.
Wash
your
bodies
as
well
as
your
faces,
rubbing
them
all
over
with
a
coarse
cloth.
If
you
cannot
wash
thus
every
morning,
pray
do
so
once
a
week.
Crying
and
cross
children
are
often
pacified
by
a
gentle
washing
of
their
little
hands
and
faces--it
soothes
them.
Babies'
heads
should
be
washed
carefully,
every
morning
with
soap.
No
scurf
should
be
suffered
to
remain
upon
them.
Get
rid
of
all
slops
and
dirty
water
at
once.
Disease,
and
even
death,
is
often
the
consequence
of
our
own
negligence.
Wash
your
rooms
and
passages
at
least
once
a
week,
use
plenty
of
clean
water;
but
do
not
let
your
children
stay
in
them
while
they
are
wet,
it
may
bring
on
croup
or
inflammation
of
the
chest.
If
you
read
your
Bibles,
which
it
is
earnestly
hoped
you
do,
you
will
find
how
cleanliness,
both
as
to
the
person
and
habitation,
was
taught
to
the
Jews
by
God
himself;
and
we
read
in
the
4th
chapter
of
Nehemiah
that
when
they
were
building
their
second
temple,
and
defending
their
lives
against
their
foes,
having
no
time
for
rest,
they
contrived
to
put
off
their
clothes
for
washing.
It
is
a
good
old
saying,
that
cleanliness
is
next
to
godliness.
See
Heb.
x.
22.
"Wholesome
food
is
needful
for
your
health.
Buy
the
most
strengthening.
Pieces
of
fresh
beef
and
mutton
go
the
farthest.
Eat
plenty
of
fresh
salt
with
food;
it
prevents
disease.
Pray
do
not
let
your
children
waste
their
pennies
in
tarts,
cakes,
bull's
eyes,
hardbake,
sour
fruit,
&c.,
they
are
very
unwholesome,
and
hurt
the
digestion.
People
would
often,
at
twenty
years
of
age,
have
a
nice
little
sum
of
money
to
help
them
on
in
the
world,
if
they
had
put
in
the
savings'
bank
the
money
so
wasted;
Cocoa
is
cheaper
and
much
more
nourishing
than
tea.
None
of
these
liquids
should
be
taken
hot,
but
lukewarm;
when
hot
they
inflame
the
stomach,
and
produce
indigestion.
