Of assimilation ID most people The hsst
way is TO drink milk slowly. Taken Eot
just before going to bed it promotes rest
fnl sleep and 70 greatly helps the thin

Cold baths are very thinning in Their

one slender in spite Of all precautions.
Never try to eat more than you have an
appetite for, as merely loading the
stomach does not mean that the food
will ever be turned into good, useful
tissue
And constant worry Is to be avoided,
for irritation Of the nerves would render
useless even the most carefully selected
diet. -Ph Philadelphia Inquirer.
