Middletown, Conn, has probably the
most novel organization in existence
It is called the Go Without-Y Your.
Breakfast club, and the members art

ing from eating breakfasts to effect
a cure OF the maiady from which they
are suffering. The theory that break
fasts are a fruitful cause fer indiges-
ton had its origin with a leading physi-
clan of Middletown. During sleep, he
claims, the muscles of the stomach are
resting. Gastric juice, that indispensa-
bic clement for digestion, is not sup
pied then, nor is sufficient quantity
created in the stomach 10 digest o
meal until nearly noon. or, rather, 10.
until three or four hours after rising.
II breakfast is eaten il is merely rolled
around the stomach. Consequently the
stomach ferments and produces ma
terial for discomfort IN mind and body.
Nature supplies only enough pepsin
during "a hours for two meals day,
and room and evening are the proper
times TO eat. Accordingly. no break
fast should be eaten.
Hunger and appetite are two diner
emit sensations Appetite can be m
dulgesi, but hunger must be satisfied.
One should eat when hungry and then
a good appetite will be enjoyed. The
