The pernicious habit of overeating un- inborn habits of millions of years have doubtedly tops the lot. Sir William Os- not yet been abolished by the acquired ler, one of the greatest surgeons the i behaviour of a mere handful of cen- world has ever known said: “Eiccessive eating does more damage than excess drinking”—which can only mean that turies. We still slay and maim and pillage as our forefathers did. And likewise—for apparently no reason at all the evils of the drink habit taken ■ all-^-we suddenly find ourselves minus . • • « • 1 . At together, moral, financial and physi cal, are surpassed by the direct,results of immoderate eating. And yet who has not taken part in a conversation like the following: “It’s lunch time.” “I don’t feel a bit hungry.” “But it’s time to eat!” “1 really don’t want a thing.” an appetite at the “right” time and utterly ravenous at unheard-of hours’. So don’t worry when this happens to you. Go right on about your busi ness and wait until you are really hun- gry- A word about proper eating when the appetite is normal: Try to eat the foods that appeal to ‘But you must-eat. You'll get a^ypy most, provided they are sensible headache or sick or something. You' e got to eat to keep up your strength!” And so we sit down at a table and gorge ourselves, taxing our stomachs with a load of food that it is not in clined to be prepared to' digest. Or else vweKcoran WfiWtedr a prescription'for ah expensive “ton ic,” and prod the appetite into syn thetic desire for food. This is all wrong. Temporary loss of appetite is' noth ing to worry about. For millions of years man lived in blissfuHgnorance.^v of the mandate '“three square' meals a day.” He ate only when he was hun gry. Then civilization came hlong and originated breakfast, lunch and din adapt himself to the new order of .things. And in the main he has suc ceeded. aftd nourishing. Eat only two or three dilKerent dishes at one meal and avoid those combinations that fight with each other. No matter how hungry you may be, don’t fall on your food ravenously. Give yourself the pleas- iSr qf ^ "thr eating something you like. This sti» ulatas the entire mechanism all along the alimentary canal and causes the salivary juices to pour into the mouth. Then when you swallow your food it is met in the stomach by the proper sol- ' Ttiere is an_ old adage that says: “The platter kills more than the sword.” Remember that.

Tremendous and prolong;^ applause greeted him when he aro^f after Foreign Secretary Arthur Hen derson had proposed his health. General Dawes had to wave his hands high above his^ head like a speaker at an American political con vention to subdue the applause and gain a chance to speak.
