We oftenvalue the love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from US by death more thanwhen he was with US in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that weunderstand the greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and itis the sick and the ailing who realize the value of good health, when we are young andstrong, we cannot imagine what it is to be weak and ailing. We are so used to vigoroushealth that we take it for granted. The organs of our body work so smoothly that wescarcely know we have lungs and liver, heart and stomach. But when any of these getsupset and gives US pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakableblessing it is to be well.Loss of health makes US miserable, and a burden to ourselves and our friends. Itcripples our efforts so that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things wemight have done. It spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health?We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain,wholesome simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands, and strong drink tens ofthousands. We must, when young, get plenty of sleep, which is "nature's sweet restorer",and not try to burn the candle at both ends. We must live as much as possible in the openair and keep our rooms well ventilated. We must get sufficient and regular physicalexercise, and keep our bodies clean. And we must avoid bad habits and secret sins as weavoid the devil, and keep our thoughts clean and our bodies pure. Our ideal must be thesound mind in the sound body.
