THE CAREFUL MAN
ONLY ONE MISTAKE. He was an unusual lawyer, and very careful about his health. He brushed his teeth twice a day. He used an antiseptic tooth brush. He was examined by a doctor twice a year. He wore goloshes when it rained. He slept with his windows open. He stuck to a diet of plenty of vegetables. He traded in several worn-out glands. He surrendered' his tonsils. He golfed, but never more than 18 holes. He got at least eight hours’ sleep each night. He did his daily dozen. He never smoked, drank, or lost his temper. The funeral will be held next Wednesday. He is survived by 18 specialists, four health institutes, six gymnasiums, and numerous manufacturers of health foods. ’ He had forgotten about -the trains at level crossings.
