Modern scientific investigation in a medical way declares that the plump man is not necessarily the 'healthiest' or the best able to resist disease. The lean man not only enjoys greater re- sistance to weakness and debility. but he iS stronger in the performance of a given task. In other words. large fat deposit in the general tissue is no evidence of good general nutrition The rich and girlish beauty of the plump man. sometimes called "Fatty,' may delight the eye. h"t when il comes to walking GoWntown in the morning or running four blocks to q fire "Fat- ty" blows out Il fuse and is sent to the repair shop. while his lean brother is merely put in condition for the day by this little burst of exercise Mime apolis Journal
