Indicates a lack of general tone.
lllHh blood pressure, on the other
hand, directs nt tent Ion to certain
diseases, the changes due lo ad
vancing years and especially In wo
men, to .disturbance of middle ago.
These conditions, like all others,
are most effectively and often suc
cessfully treated only when discov
ered early, A blood pressure test,
therefore should be u part of every
good examination. . i

mean high blood pressure, ' Nor

but means that the blood Is at- i
tempting to circulate under abnor-1

That one Is u old as his arteries i
Is a populur sajing. High blood
liresanro too often shows that tho
patient, while perhaps knowing the
old saying, has not realised what
he could do to influence the mut

Nature provides a wide margin
of safety Tor moat of us hut It in

we cenerallv claim us nelly and

if high blood pressure la found and
