Excerpt from Our Bodies and How We Live: An Elementary Text-Book of Physiology and Hygiene for Use in Schools With Special Reference to the Effects of Alcohol Drinks, Tobacco and Other Narcotics on the Bodily Life I. Animal Life. -we need not be told that we have bodies made of esh and bone, whose substance we see and handle everyday of our life. Even a Child knows that certain parts of his body, as the walls of his chest, and his heart that he feels beating within it, are always moving of themselves. We can move of our own free will from one place to another. The wind may rustle the leaves, and a breeze may sway a strong oak; but the leaves and the oak have no power to move of themselves. We need not wait, like the trees of the forest, for the wind to blow us to and fro, or, like the pebbles by the roadside, for some one to stir us. Like the horse, dog, bird, or any other animal that has life, we can move from place to place. Every living animal, from ourselves down to the tiniest creature that lives its brief life in a single day, and that cannot be seen without the aid of the micro scope, has the power to move of itself.
