I am all fagged out, ve no ambition, worry from morn- ing till night, don’t care whether I am dead or alive, have lost weight and cannot do the same work [ used to do some years ago. If I were as strong as I was, I could earn good money. I know I ought to treat with a good specialist, but I cannot afford to pay for the treatment.” You are paying for it NOW, friend, and dearly; vet you get it, Let me tell you why. Your health is your capital; working capacity is the interest are drawing. A good manager never spends more than his interest. Should he begin to draw on the capital his interest would, of course, decrease. And what are you doing? You allow your health to run down more and more; therefore, you can- not work and earn what you used to. Do you see the point? You are draw- ing on your capital—which is your health—by allowing it to run down, and so the interest (your working apacity) is steadily growing smaller. You used to make good money; now you earn about half of what you used to get To make two, three or four dollars was play to you; and you had all your heart and soul in your work. These happy days are gone. You now barely make a 1| find it 2lmost beyond your s And you shudder at the what will happen breakdown comes. Figure out in dollars what you have lost already will be amazed at the amount; and what you are going to lose is beyond estimation The dollar you MIGHT earn, hut don't, is an actual expense to you. You spend it. And what do you get for it. Worry, anxiety, despondency, want and deprivation for your family. The dollar you take out of your pocket and spend for treatment with an experienced specialist is not an expense. It is an investment. And in return you get increased worl ability, higher health and & piness at home. Which will you choose?
