Publisher's Synopsis
The following pages contain certain rules and sugges-tions concerning health, and certain simple and sensible ways in which it may, we hope, be acquired and main-tained at a very small expense of time and self-denial, by a large number of people who are naturally accustomed to feel not very well. The book is founded on notes made by its two authors who, though they lead for the most part very different lives, are agreed on certain broad principles of health herein set forth. One of them, for in-stance, eats largely of flesh-foods every day, the other has scarcely touched meat for years. But both are accustomed to feel extremely well and to undertake considerable ex-ertion either of mind or body without experiencing any fatigue.
