Health Institute
591
A man may spend all that he has in this world at a Health Institute,
and find great relief, and may then return to his family and to his old
habits of life, and in a few weeks or months be in a worse condition
of health than ever before. He has gained nothing; he has spent his
limited means for nothing. The object of the health reform and the
Health Institute is not, like a dose of “Painkiller” or “Instant Relief,”
to quiet the pains of today. No, indeed! Its great object is to teach the
people how to live so as to give nature a chance to remove and resist
disease.
To the afflicted among our people I wish to say, Be not discouraged.
God has not forsaken His people and His cause. Make known your
state of health and your ability to meet the expenses of a stay at the
Institute to the physicians, addressing Health Institute, Battle Creek,
Michigan. Are you diseased, running down, feeble, then do not delay
till your case is hopeless. Write immediately. But I must say again to
the poor: At present but little can be done to help you, on account of
capital already raised being invested in material and buildings. Do all
you possibly can for yourselves, and others will help you some.
