Rev. Flynn Of California Makes Some
Peppery Remarks on Diet and
Fat-Two Meals Enough.

Cincinnati.-"Any man who is so
fat that he cannot see his feet while
walking, ought to be arrested" said
the Rev. Earl Flynn of Berkeley, Cal,
to Y. NJ. c. A. audience the other
day. 1.-TWO meals a day are enough
for the average person 70 eat and
remain in a healthy condition. The
person who eats three meals a day
needs IL hours sleep to refresh him
self"
Mr.. Flynn, who is 75 years old, con-
tinued:
TIE food which collects the long
evity germ is sauerkraut The man
or woman who keeps on a diet OF this
kind, ought to live a century or more
Sauerkraut is very nutritious and
should be on the table OF everybody"
Continuing his health talk, Mr.
Flynn wound up with saying: ITO bt
healthy every minister must sweat
twice a week. A good many minis
ters only sweat once a month, wher
they draw their salaries.'
