The way out

On receiving the draft notice, the resister should stop washing, cat very little and drfnk rivers of whisky—for about three weeks. Three days before the physical, he ceases to cat and sleep. On the night before he eats the white of three dozen eggs. Next morning he washes and shaves.

There will be severe rashes all over his body (apparently nervous shingles), an onimous gastric refrain, and his urinalysis will be appalling. The egg bestow albuminuria: a frequent adjunct of long term alcoholism. There will also be symptoms of brain and kidney damage.

The effects last about three days.
