  	century, sometimes tells you that the weed preserves
  	his health, but does this make it so? Does his	                         Beliefs
24	assertion prove the use of tobacco to be a salu-	                         illusive 
  	brious habit, and man to be the better for it? Such in-
  	stances only prove the illusive physical effect of a false
27	belief, confirming the Scriptural conclusion concerning a
  	man, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he." 
  	    The movement-cure — pinching and pounding the poor
30	body, to make it sensibly well when it ought to be in-
  	sensibly so — is another medical mistake, resulting from
  	the common notion that health depends on inert matter
 1	instead of on Mind. Can matter, or what is termed
  	matter, either feel or act without mind?
