Don’t just take it for granted that there's nothing wrong with your eliminative system because your habits aro regular.

The worries will vanish, The work will be done; No man faces his shadow Who faces’ the sun. —,—i------------------- Thoughtful Patient One winter night, when the ground was covered with sleet and the rain was freezing as it fell, the old1 doctor received a very late call from a family living awajDon the other side of the city.
