Health and success are so largely

mental harmony. that we should do
everything possible to secure that
physical poise which also means men-
tai and moral poise. A large part Of
our ills come from one sided develop

tissue cells and starving others-over-
feeding and undertaking. Scientific
feeding. therefore. is of vast impor-

Overeating and improper eating are
among the curses Of the world. Think
Of the people who put all sorts Of in
compatibles into their stomachs at the
same time and then use all sorts of
nostrums to get rid of their bad eff

One of the most pathetic sights in
the world is that of a human being
struggling hard to carry out his am
bition, yet handicapping himself by
his ignorance of physical laws.
What pathetic figure Carlyle cut

might have been a symmetrical power,
possessor of u colossal brain largely
controlled by a dyspeptic stomach! He
was cross and grabbed and did just
the things that he did not want to do,
