Cooks and caterers are not equal to
the management of the kitchens of

and good physicians are available it
is hard to get trained dietitians. In
this country the dietary is left largely
in the hands Of cooks, but it is evil

TROUBLES of People on Venus.

Inhabitants of Venus, If there are
any, must feel it extremely difficult to
establish units of time. Venus always
turns the same face toward the sun;
SO the planet has no day, and the
lack of moon deprives it of month.
Finally, it has no year, for its axis Of
rotation is perpendicular to the plane
of it's orbit, and the latter is almost
circular.
