Four Ways to Improve Your Health

Four friends on the Road to Good Health
Four of your best friends

I scanned this illustration from a 1924 health textbook. Isn't it cute? And I don't think that any modern doctor would disagree with its message:  On the road to Health, four of your best friends are:
  • Pure food
  • Fresh air
  • Exercise
  • Rest
This drawing reminds me a little of Dorothy and her friends on the road to the Emerald City in the Land of Oz.

From: 
Healthy Living Book 2:  Principles of Personal and Community Hygiene by Charles-Edward Amory Winslow, Dr. P .H. Copyright 1924. Published by Charles E. Merrill Company, New York and Chicago.
