Here they are: "1. Honor your parents by hav ing a thorough physical examina tion every birthday; for an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure. "2. Honor your friends by tak ing a daily bath; for cleanliness is a part of godliness. . "3. Honor your family by havine your life insured; for life insurance guarantees the cooperation of the insurer in the prolongation of the life of the insured. "4. Honor your physician by avoiding patent medicines; for the most of these nostrums are humbugs. "6. Honor your digestion by being be-ing careful of your diet; for many a man digs his grave with his teeth. "7. Honor your lungs by breathing breath-ing fresh air; for ventilation is a means of grace. "8. Honor you nerves by taking plenty of rest in sleep; for they who work all day and play all night promote pro-mote the brevity of their lives by burning the candle at both ends. . "9.
