How to Live Long in Good Health: Jones, The Health Lecturer, Demonstrator and Teacher (cover)

Printed wraps, 8vo, 32pp. No date, ca. 1920. Very Good with light creasing and toning, small chip to bottom rear corner, tidemark around the upper staple affecting the wraps only, and print impression from the verso obscuring the portrait of Mrs. Jones on the rear wrap. Not in OCLC and lacking much in the way of clues regarding the mononymous "Health Lecturer, Demonstrator and Teacher" Jones. "Jones' Ironux" is advertised through the last 3 pages ("not a patent medicine") alongside a shoutout for Nemol Catarrh Powder, but no reference to Jones or his product could be located in online sources. 

Among guidance for healthy eating and exercises suitable to all, the booklet contains information for mothers about infant nutrition. It addresses the rise in heart disease, citing 1919 statistics published by Dr. Watson S. Rankin, then President of the American Public Health Association. Although most exercises are illustrated with collages of men in suits, a few exercises just for women address "female weakness" (no.22) and "painful menstruation" (no. 23). An obscure booklet, delightfully illustrated (note the b-boy vibes).
