Show A Cnlquo Prescrlptlor, for tho Uver. A young clerk whose sedentary life and lack of exercise have left him with a sluggish livtT and all the evil eonsa. quences thereof visited a well known physician recently and was advised to regulate his diet to the utmost plaitt ness and to take horseback exercise daily. The yonng man frankly told the dootor that he could not afford to keep or to hire n, horse. Tho doctor asked him where he was employed and was told that he was a olerk in a certain corpora-tion corpora-tion which is housed in an enormous building on Broadway, and that his office was on tho tenth floor. Quoth tho doctor: "That's just the thing. You don't noid to hire a horse. Walk briskly down the 10 flights of stairs threo times a day, and it will do your liver just as much good as if yon were jolted on horseback during an hour's ride." Tho gentleman's friends will proba bly appreciate after they have read this why he persists in walking down stair? at a good gait instead of taking tho elevator,. ele-vator,. Tho doctor added that no excer-ciso excer-ciso was more gently stimulating than walking down stairs ana nothing mors severe than walking up stairs. Not York Jfeil nnd Ei-nraw |
