The number of judges in said court

ERRORS
In TuberCular Treatment
Pointed Out
COnsumptiVeS Need Not Be
Stuffed

Many traditions with regard to the
feeding of tuberculosis patients and
with regard to food in general, are
given severe blows in series of arti-
cles published in the October number
of the Journal of Outdoor Life, the
official organ of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis.
DIR. John f. Murlin, of New York,
Assistant Professor of Physiology at
the Cornell University Medical Col
lege, holds in an article entitled "The
Dynamic Principles Of Nutrition" that
a consumptive will gain weight and do
we'll on three pints of whole milk,
eight ounces of cream, five ounces Of
milk sugar, six eggs and two slices
of buttered toast as ration for each
"a hours. The entire diet with the ex-
ception Of the bread and butter could
be prepared in advance and served
for a cost Of about so cents for the
day. Miss Cecilia Flick of the Henry
Phipps Institute of Philadelphia, also
offers some sample diets which the or
binary family can prepare for even
less than so cents day.
DR.. David Lyman of Wallingford,
Conn, and DR.. Paul B. Johnson of
Washington, d. c., both agree that the
ordinary person eats too much, and
that the old notions about stuffing a
tuberculosis patient at all times and
seasons have been proven false. DR.
Lyman holds that eggs are not nee
essary article of the consumptive's
diet, and that tuberculosis patient
should eat anything that agrees with
him that is nourishing. He thinks
that tuberculosis patient should eat
only little more than person in
ordinary good health.
DR.. Murlin compares the food we eat
to the fuel used in furnishing steam
and power for an engine. In selecting
our food he says that we should eat
enough to furnish energy for the days
work, but that much more than this IL
not needed. He holds that the appe
tite is not necessity for good diges
tion. There Is no fallacy of nutri
tion," he says, greater than tha
which supposes that food cannot b,
digested and utilized without appe
tite,' Most of the food we eat, full,
four-fiftns, goes to supply energy foI
our everyday tasks, while less thar
one-fifth goes to supply building ma
terial.

HON. Ollie JAMES
May May Not Find It Possible TO Speak
at Louisa.

1t does not now seem certain that
Ollie James can find a date at
which to speak at Louisa. The
matter is as yet unsettled. The To-
cal committee is still hoping that
he may find it possible to come
later in the campaign.
We make this tsatement now be-
cause there may be some persons
who are depending upon hearing
James and who would not care to
come to Louisa twice between now
and November to hear speeches.
We advise all such to come next
Monday and hear Mr.. Heflin. There
is no better in the United States.
You will not only laugh to your
hearts content, but you will learn
much about the live issues from
this bright, cheerful statesman.
LATER: Ollie James will speak
at Prestonsburg on the 18th and
a prominent man from that place
told us yesterday that this is the
only appointment he will have in
the Big Sandy Valley.
