the Boys A. PcTIlE.
SOME EXAMPLES OF us SIZE AND
AGUESS AS TO ITS CAUSE.

An English schoolmaster has just
completed an exhaustive research IN
the subject Of boys capacity for food
. In summing up the case he is frank to
admit that while he finds a superabun-
dance of capacity there is little or no
limit.
Perhaps after rich cake both fruit
and plain. the first favor, accord
ing to the schoolmaster is condensed
milk. This is often eaten without a
spoon by simply making two small holes
IN the top of the can and placing the
lips against them. Then after this
comes chocolate, chocolate cream. choc-
olate candy, chocolate cake.
at may be thought am exaggerat-
ing" he says "when say that 1 have
seen boy Of ten years eat in single
afternoon enough food to satisfy an
adult party Of twelve persons. have
myself known . frail boy to. eat q por.
tion Of rich cake, a third Of q one-pound
can of condensed milk, four ounces OF
mixed chocolate, q handful of assorted
sweets, 2 oranges, ] apple, 4 ginger.
bread cakes, dozen Brazil nuts and
two large pieces Of peppermint candy.
Ibid it make him sick? did he lie
down and groan and await the coming
of q mecical man with the stomach
pump? Not he; he just had one or two
faint symptoms Of uneasiness which he
quickly dispelled by few well known
gasps. much after the mannor of q sleep
ing baby. Then he walked about for Q
time and presently an invitation to join
in q game of ball was accepted.
The schoolmaster' observations have
led to q very natural deduction that g
boys condition is in many ways differ'
ant from that Of atrained strong man
The latter could not eat the things that
: boy could, because his fitness - main
" muscular, while the boys is. in add
zion TO being muscular, organic. The
man may have q sluggish liver or faulty
kidneys, and still be a strong man. but
the boy who runs and romps and turns
somersaults and shouts and twists and
turns. hasn't q single blemish,
