BLOOD
We live by our blood, and * n
it. We thrive or starve, ase r
blood is rich or poor. There is
nothing else to live on or by.
When strength is full and
.spirits high we are being re
freshed-bone, muscle and
brain, in body and mind-with
continual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits, no
cheer, no spring, when rest is
not rest and sleep is not sleep,
we are starved; our blood is
poor; there is little nutriment
in it.
Back of the blood is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take
