SUNDAY OxereatiEd.

# it is desired to begin the week
refreshed and ready for labor, rested
in mind and body, the eating customs
of Sunday will have to be re-adjusted.
Have later breakfast, if desired, but
have then very light one, even Il
you are hungry. Or if it must be
hearty, then do not upset your diges-
tive habits any more than may be
avoided and have but two meals or
that day, and eat no other. 1t would
be far better to have three light meals
lighter than usual, if that can be ar
ranged to fit with the other household
arrang gements. TIE custom Of noon
dinner on that day arises from the
usual absence of cook or maid at the
later one ,and this may be unavoid-
able. Very well, then; treat this as a
rest day for cook and digestive ap-
paratus as well as from other labors;
have a light breakfast, light dinner,
and chahng-dish supper as near the
ordinary hours of meals as possible.
and remember as you are going to
take less exercise than usual you de-
mand lesser amount Of more easily
digested food.-Good Housekeeping.
