I am in receipt OF the following letter:
II have been keeping steady company
about five months. When we first met
he came three nights week. About
three weeks ago we had an argument
about how many nights young mar

claims Wednesday and Sundays are the

How many nights, and what nights are
properg-A Patient Girl"
my dear girl. Love recognizes no ealen-
dar nor timepiece. When those who love
are together. the clocks fairly rend their
mechanism in making their hands fly.
When those who love are apart, the
snail is no longer the emblem for the
slowest traveller. 1t Is the hand OF the
clock.
The wisest elockmaker never made a
timepiece that was satisfactory to those
who love The wise men OF old merci-
lessly divided the month into four weeks.
and the weeks into seven days, were not
considering the rights OF the lover in the
division.
Had they remembered the long. long
DAYS that intervene between the stated
periods for a lovers calls, there would
have been two Sundays in week.
For. my dear girl, your lover is right
in demanding Sunday evening as his.
From time immemorial this has been
a day set apart for bowers. II is day
OF exaltation and peace for the devout,
and in a way that is not less giorify-
ing Il is day OF exaltation and JOY to
those in love.
II is the day when something intangible
gets in the blood OF those who love and
makes them confuse earthly worship
with the divine. And 1t is my honest
opinion that they are none the worse
for this confusing of loves, and that the
Great Spirit that made them and or
dained the manner Of living and loving
absolves them Of any sacrilegious mo-
tives.
TWO evenings a week are not too many.
II he is a working man. and sometimes
has other demands made on his time, 1t
is probably as many evenings as he can
well spare.

suit Of amusement and company OF their
own age realize the loneliness Of their
parents evenings after evenings7
They want the young folks to have a
good time, and when they are made to
feel that this good time consists in being
away from them their tragedy Of parent
hood begins.

aid said. Too much fat would clog
the human engine, just as too much
oil would play havoc with the engine
of an automobile. While foods con-
tanning fats are productive of heat,
energy and efficiency in the human
body, great care mas 10 be exercised
in taking such food in proper quanti-
ties. II will not do to feed patients,
who need building up, on fat diets,
without the greatest OF care, because
OF the danger of doing more harm
than good, and the organs not being
able, TO perform their proper fu1c-
tions under the load. 1t has sbeen
found that as much efficiency can be
secured from a starch diet as from
one of proteids, largely meats, the
speaker said.

will clash with DR.. Woods Hutch.n-
son in advocating care in regard to
meat diet, for DIR. Hutchinson advises
the eating of all the meat one wants.
But do think that il is the eating OF
so much fat-producing foods that
causes so much trouble with people
nowadays. The rich people, in pro-
ted way, are far too much over-fed.
DIR. Donald then spoke about the
experiments made by the department
of agriculture of the United States
government with certain foods. He
said that nuts are far more nutritious
than meats; that pound of walnut5
is more nourishing than pound OF
pork, and pound OF peanut butter
more nutritious than a similar guam.

FAULT is NOT NATURES

Advancing the Malthusiau theory
that population tends to multiply
faster than the means OF subsistence
can be made TO do, and that unless
the increase in the human race be
checked by prudent restraint, poverty
is bound to exist. DR.. w. NJ. Donald,
OF Detroit. made the assertion, Satur-
day morning. In the amphitheater OF
81. Mary's hospital, during lecture
on Problems in nutrition" in con-
nection with the annual clinic of the
Alumni association OF the Detroit
College OF Medicine, that there must
como time when the raising OF large
families will be restricted, Just when
such restraint would be carried out,
he said he didn't know.

would be no over-production. II Is
known tiat were no artificial means
used to Keep people alive, about so
per cent OF those brought into the
world IN one year would die of the
next. and that the other so per cent
would do in smaller percentages In
the FOLLOWING years.
But in these years We are doing
all we can to keep the weaklings
alive. with the result that many OF
the weak are saved. So, | say, the
time must come when the law shall
say what size of family man must
have"
DR.. Donald then began his talk
proper on nutrition, explaining at
length how much food and the proper
kinds people need for health and Ell
ficiency. He told OF visiting a local
orphan asylum and finding the chill
dren getting larger quantities OF fat
producing food than they really need
ed. On a chart he showed the chill
uren's bill of fare for each meal on a
given day and the quantity OF fats,
staIthes. etc, in each kind OF food.
For breakfast, the youngsters had
mush, milk, bread and coffee; for din
ner, pea soup, canned tomatoes, bread
and pumpkin pie. and for supper,
bread, milk and stewed prunes. Dr..
Donald pointed out that these foods,
although largely a vegetarian diet.
contained far more fat than the tots
really needed However, he said the
surplus supply was doing them no
harm.
