Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Seven Essentials to Life and Health: A Practical, Primary Treatise on Hygiene
There is still too wide a chasm between the people and the medical profession. The only way to narrow this chasm is to narrow that other gulf that lies be tween both classes and a true knowledge of Hygiene. The Ancient Greeks had a goddess Hygieia, who was fabled to preside over the health of the people. Hence the modems have named that science which treats of the preservation of health, Hygiene.
Very few today even among educated professional people have a well classified knowledge of Hygiene.
The great majority are still feeling their way toward the light.
It is the privilege of every human being to know all that is possible for him to comprehend, of his own being and body and his relations to this life and world. It is necessary to know something about ourselves, to prevent that useless worry and wear and waste, that so soon destroys all the harmony of existence, ren ders us of little account, and ends in the cutting short of a miserable existence. To be hygienic even in spots may add years to one's life and these years may be years of joyful usefulness.

Excerpt from The Seven Essentials to Life and Health: A Practical, Primary Treatise on Hygiene
The diaphragm, the organ of breathing and the leading muscle of the body, is attached to the inner lower border of the ribs and crowns up like a dome over the liver, stomach and spleen, with the heart resting down lightly on top of the dome and the lower border of the lungs slipping down on each side of the dome between it and the ribs.
This appears partly in the right hung, is cut the left lung is cut away at the top of the dome so as not to obscure the location of the stomach, which is dotted in under the diaphragm on the left side of the body, being drawn away from the ribs to show the spleen (sp.). The liver is dotted in on the right side and the lower border lifted to show location of gall bladder. The colon is drawn down to show the kidneys.
To appreciate diaphragm action, read pp. 45-47 and 162-166, studying the cut as you read.
If the lower front border of the lungs were allowed to appear in their true position they would spread inward and downward, covering all but the central and lower portion of this dome of the diaphragm.
