Someone who has found facts on
which to base the opinion thinks that
the amateur dieting to which so many
are given just now Is productive of far
more ills than it can cure. Dieting, no
doubt nationally and with due regard
for the needs Of the body, does In most
cases improve the health. But for
Smith to change his diet according to
the formula Brown found beneficial.
without help or advice from a physi-
clan, Is often means of aggravating
an already existing Ill or of bringing
on fresh ones. One mans diet may be
another mans poison is as true a word,
perhaps, as has been spoken, and ac.
ceptlng it as truth In this day of indis.
criminate dieting may save many a
good man from going from bad to worse
In his attempts at self-help.

through many generations tells Of a
wealthy man who determined to make
practical test of the efficiency of his
servants. He announced his intention
of being absent from his estate for a
long time. Before starting he called
some of his helpers and gave them
sums Of money in varying amount, tell
ing them to use the money until his
return. Then he took Journey into a
foreign country When he came back
he asked an accounting. The results Of
that investigation convinced him that
some Of his assistants were shrewd and
saving, while others had no Just appre-
citation OF the value of money or the
best ways to use it. The large fortunes
of the present day have made 1t al
most imperative that men of wealth
give their children some training in
business as necessary preparation
for the handling OF the millions that
are to be theirs In the days to come.
1t is stated that celebrated million
aire, desiring to reduce the cares of
business AMI also wishing to see what
his children would do with the money,
gave each Of them $1,OOO,OOO before his
death. No matter what the result
might be in given case Of this kind
the idea is good one. Conspicuous
