Harvey w. Wiley, formerly chief
of the United States Bureau of
Chemistry, writes an interesting ar
ticle entitled Intelligent Eating in
the October Woman's Home Com
panion. He says in part:
Every pound of useless fat which
the human being carries is an i'm
pediment to proper activity. A man
six feet tall should weigh approx
mately two hundred pounds If by
strict attention to his diet and ex-
ercise he can reduce this weight to
100 or 1875 pounds, it would proba-
bly, prove beneficial !, but If his
220, 230, or even $40 pounds, he
units himself to that extent for his
duties.
Let anyone who is accustomed
to physical exercise, and suited
thereto, climb a long steep hill. If
his weight is normal and his health
good, he can do this without any
very great fatigue; let him then be-
gin at the foot of the hill and car
ry weight of forty pounds, and
note the effect that this will have.
The man who weighs forty pounds
more than he shouldn't there are
thousands of them in this land Of
ours-is forced constantly to carry
this quite unnecessary handicap
Food for special activities, or
special public or private duties, is a
matter which has not received any
very great scientific attention. No
set amount of food can be arbitrari-
" chosen for tho -brain-WCrker or
other professional man. In general
it may be said that a man of little
exercise will eat less ~ one per
cent. of his weight of de aer
day. Any marked excsa1s.a

When one has waded through q

about the thousand and one tasks of

happy thoughts of those to whom
she ministers, and whose faith in
God is strong enough to enable her
to leave the future to Him.
Oh yes! there are plenty of such
women; they have married the men
they are making homes for because
they loved them. They mother their
children for the same reason, and
they are the balance wheel that

The Suffragettes are another band
of theorists whose havoc has been
great. They have lowered the femi-
