a palette knife to apply his paint, in

worst thing of all is that he sells his

Improved Dletjno Rules.

The rules for dieting in which the
Medical Congress has been so prolific
reminds a writer In the London Daily
Chronicle of Ruskin's method of ar
ranging his food supplies during hi.
Illness. He procured from his doctor
a list OF all the things that he must
not eat. took them all. and recovered.
He made 1t his rule to eat whatever
his fancy suggested. and he lived to
be over eighty. The moral Is obvious.
Never surrender to the stomach.
Bully It. Defy it. In an emergency
ask yourself, What would be the
worst thing for me to eat?" Then eat
1t and live forever.-Exchange.
