thought to every bite he eats sat
down at a restaurant table and glanc-
ed obviously over the French menu
card on which a dozen items were
marked with a cross in red ink.

other fellow with stomach has been
here ahead of me and has marked
off the few things that a Christian
can eat without inviting a sudden
death"
In his delight at finding the dinner
problem thus providentially solved
the dyspeptlc ordered six of the rcd
cross dishes They were unpro-
nounceable and Understandable, but
they tasted good and the man liked
them. When the last crur1b. of the
last course had disappeared tho dys-
peptic said genially to the waiter:

that ate at this table ahead Of me"
yes, SIR" assented the waiter.
"He was one of them diet cranks that
drive restaurant people crazy by
marking up tire bill of fare with red
danger signals before the dishes that
