| MAN, KNOW THY-SELF. |
| |
| |
| Know this and be assured quite well, |
| All evil comes when man hath fell. |
| Fell from purity, in grief, |
| To eat the vile tobacco leaf. |
| Know this my friend, a poisoned brain, |
| Can not a poisoned thought refrain. |
| A heart that beats with poisoned pulse; |
| Will any moral mind convulse. |
| Alcohol and Tobacco food, |
| To feed the mind with, is not good. |
| It causes one when e're he speaks, |
| To imitate the weeds and snakes. |
| And thus his poison he'll impart |
| From mind to mind from heart to heart. |
| When your mind is clean and pure, |
| More hardships you can then endure; |
| Then see the manly moral tone |
| Of an intellect full grown. |
| |
| J. J. Cranmer. |

| AGENTS WANTED _TO SELL THE_ RULINGS OF NATURE, it is a printed formula |
| teaching the power of the active healthy mind over the body in |
| sickness and in health; it teaches how to train up your mind even to |
| supernal powers. This is backed up by every medical writer, by every |
| science, by every casual observer; and last but not the least: it is |
| the ultima thule of the ever blessed Bible, the word of the Lord. |
