The native African has always been straight like the pine sapling. In civilization his descendant permits his back to bend. The chest caves in, squeezing the heart, lungs and liver. One is more liable to pneumonia and tuberculosis, and can not fight them successfully as these organs have lost much of their vital force because of their cramped conditions.
Power is expressed in the way one carries her shoulders, and vitality is measured by breathing capacity.
One may sin against God and be forgiven, but Mother Nature never forgives the sin against her. Unto the third and fourth generation the punishment goes on for the abuse of the temple of the Soul.
FOOTNOTES:
[A] NOTE. The Bible and other books tell us that the Ethiopians were a prominent people before the time of Christ.
Recently in excavations pictures of Egyptian princes reigning 2900-2750 B. C. prove from their hair that they had Negro blood. America will have these proofs in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
[B] NOTE. "Kinky hair is neither a disgraceful nor a shameful heredity. It is an honorable legacy from Africa. A kind Mother Nature protected her children from the torrid sun which kept the oils and waxes in a fluid state or else the hair would have dried up. The chemical action of the atmosphere caused a shrinking into spirals which further protected the uncovered heads from scorching."
Constant care of the hair will cause an improved condition of the texture which will in time be inherited.
