Should fat man eat more than a
thin man? Should big, muscular man
eat more than his diminutlve companion
at the lunch counter? Should a young
man eat more than an old man? Or
again, should young man eat more than
a young woman. or an old man more than
lady OF equal age?
These questions and host OF others
OF a similar nature are keeping dietItians
OF this city busy at present, for they are
propounded by public which has come

there really are such things as digestive
organs by the long continued hot spell"

Inquiries among some OF the leading
physicians of this city show that the
problem of how much to eat is simple
one for women. The average woman
eats, or should eat. four-ffths as much
food as the average man. On this basis
IL Is easily seen that n woman six feet
tall and Weighing 200 pounds need only
seek man OF like stature, who appears
to be in good health, watch to see how
much food he consumes and then eat
four -fifths Of that quantity herself, Sim
