oughly reviewing the matter and ex-
amining the law relating to it, could
not advise the drawing Of a complaint,

a prosecution where there seemed so
little chance Of securing conviction.

Just a short while ago we, meaning
the American people, were Informed
that the primary cause Of our longev-
ity and general good health was the
fact that we ate hearty breakfasts and
prepared ourselves for the days labors
with a good meal. 1t was shown and
proved beyond dispute that the human
machinery needed goodly supply OF
fuel to run the engine during the day
and that the best time to lay in this
supply was at breakfast. Thereupon
the American people began to eat
heartily of toast, griddle cakes, cere-
ais, etc. That Is, those who read the
article and were struck by its force
did those things they were told were
essential for the preservation of their
health, strength and life. Now comes
another authority" and says that the
American breakfast Is too heavy and
that the first hearty meal of the day
should not be eaten until noon. This
later authority" "proves" his case just
as positively as the other, and there
will be men and women who will heed
the advice and starve themselves half
a day under the belief that they are
doing themselves favor. All of which
recalls to mind that If the American
people did everything that they were
told to do and did not do the things
that they were told not to do, always
by medical authorities" every minute
would be used to do something con-
Trajectory to that which had been done
the preceding minute.
