DIET AND BEAUTY.
DIR. Latson's Views on the Constitu

DIR. Latson's Views on the COnstItu-
ents of n HeHIth-givIng Menu.
From Outing Magazine.
one Of the most important matters in
connection with health and beauty Is tho
diet question; What 70 eat, how much.
how often? To master this problem win
not only of itself insure beauty. but RS
1 have explained above only when the
dietary conditions are right Will there be
good. clean blood Without it there can be
no beauty
After about two decades OF careful
study regarding foods and feeding. I have
come 70 the conclusion that the best
rules Of diet can be embraced in two
words, moderation and simplicity Simple
food taken In moderate quantities at long
intervals, and eaten only at times when
the mind is free from anything Ike haste
OF disturbance. will give the best con-
ditioEs for good. clean blood
II I were asked In detail to describe a
model dietary I should suggest one Ike
the following. For breakfast: Cereal with
milk and cream, fresh fruit, a glass Of
milk, either with or without beaten
egg This IS rather a heavy meal. and
should personal preference OF require
ments seem TO indicate II. l would sug-
gcst leaving on the egg or the glass Of
milk or the cereal In many cases the
fruit alone Is quite sufficient for a whole
some and bodybuilding breakfast.
For the second meal 1 would suggest
peas OF beans. baked potato salad. bread
and butter. fruit, a glass OF milk or cup
OF weak tea. As a second choice I may
mention the following; a small quantity
of fresh meat. boiled rice, salad bread and
butter, fruit. While allowing meat in
small quantities. I am inclined to think
that il is not one of the foods which con
duces TO beauty or health Certainly no
one who eats much meat can be perma-
nently healthy or beautiful. I may
mention that I speak quite without preju-
dice, since I myself am not a vegetarian.
The salad referred to may consist Of any
of the fresh. green leaves that grow in
the sunlight-celery. lettuce, chicory, ro-
maine. escarole, or watarcTess, II is
sometimes a good plan TO combine two or
more Of these leaves. The salad should
be dressed with a small quantity Of olive
oil and q few drops OF lemon Juice
The meals should be separated by an
interval of at least seven hours. To
fully digest a meal and prepare for an
other requires FIVE or six hours, and per
haps few habits Of civilized life are more
destructive than the common practice of
crowding three meals into ten hours.
