Nobody ever repcntcd 0feating too
little" was the sage remark OF an old
gentleman on the verge oil ninety, next
TO whom the writer had the pleasure of
sitting ut dinner the othc~ night. The
host was pressing him to take more
and urging him in the usual phrase,
why. you have eaten scarcely any
thing" Now it is to be assumed that
the old gentleman words indicated
one of the hvways to good health along
which he had travelc through his
long life and to which lac owed his pre-
sent remarkably hearty condition; so
ii was suggested to him intcrrOgatiyely
that he had ALWAYS been small feeder.

the habit of eating too much. more
than our digestive powers can tackle
