when Doctors Disagree.

"Some time ago, says man who
always tries to heed good advice,
II stopped eating hearty dinners on
the advice of an eminent physician,
who said that hearty dinner tend.
ed to shorten life. Not long after
ward saw that another physician,
equally eminent, said it was simply
suicidal to eat heavy luncheon,
and SO I made an apple or cracker
serve me for luncheon. 1t was pretty
tough to get up from luncheon and
dinner in famished condition, but
I consoled myself with the thought
that l was frightening my life,
and besides / could eat hearty
breakfast. But the other day saw
that still another eminent physician
says that no one who wants to live
long should eat any breakfast, and
] am puzzled to know what to do.
These men are experts and presum-
ably know what they are talking
about, but if I adopt their direc-
tons for the attainment of long
life it looks as if I might die of
starvation in less than a month. :"
