Mental Efficiency: And Other Hints to Men and Women: Original Text

By: Bennett, Arnold

If there is any virtue in advertisements-and a journalist should be the last personto say that there is not-the American nation is rapidly reaching a state of physicalefficiency of which the world has probably not seen the like since Sparta. In all theAmerican newspapers and all the American monthlies are innumerable illustratedannouncements of "physical-culture specialists," who guarantee to make all theorgans of the body perform their duties with the mighty precision of a 60 h.p.motor-car that never breaks down. I saw a book the other day written by one ofthese specialists, to show how perfect health could be attained by devoting aquarter of an hour a day to certain exercises. The advertisements multiply andincrease in size. They cost a great deal of money. Therefore they must bring in agreat deal of business. Therefore vast numbers of people must be worried about thenon-efficiency of their bodies, and on the way to achieve efficiency.
