The people OF China in voting 10
overthrow their present republican
form of government have done SO
because they believe that as a mon
archy they will have better .oppor-
tunity to pursue their own way In
peace and quiet.
In other words they figure that
under q monarchical form OF govern.
ment they will gain more of the
benefits they had hoped to gain as
a republic.
The present president-Yuan SIN
Kai-will in the near future be
crowned as emperor. This is a
paradox that is practically assured
by the returns Of the elections on
Oct. 90, when II of the 10 provinces
unanimously balloted for a mon.
archy. There are still seven PROV
inces to be heard from-but there
Is little doubt OF their vote.
With all the returns in nothing
remaihs but for the national coun-
Gil to adopt a bill formally making
the change from republic to mon
archy effective.
Probably more than any other
event In the history OF China. the
overthrow OF the republic was ac-
complished by the will of the peo-
pie.

Friend. do you appreciate the
great Importance to your mental as
well as physical welfare OF the first
meal OF the day? Are you aware
that, not only the kind Of breakfast
you eat. but the conditions under
which you eat it. have a direct bear
ing on your fitness for the days
work?
From the psychological point OF
view. indeed. the way q man eats
his breakfast Is OF even more I'm
portance than what he eats for
breakfast Eating ones breakfast
too hurriedly. for instance. is moth
ing short Of psychological crime.
The man who gulps down his cof.
fee. shovels In HIS cereal. and swal-
lows his egg and toast with record
breaking speed is adopting a course
certain soon or late to diminish his
power to think clsarly and vigor-
ously. For this reason:
Unless food Is well chewed. so
that IL is coated with saliva when
il enters the stomach. the digestive
process will work badly. Working
badly. an absorption Of waste pro-
ducts into the blood will result
There will then be poisoned blood
flow to the brain. and faulty brain
functioning will follow.
Moreover, hastily swallowed food
means, not only an impairment Of
the digestive process, but its undue
prolongation In the effort to take
care OF the food burden. Now,
while digestion Is going on there is
always decrease In the flow of
blood TO the brain, the blood stream
being diverted to the stomach to aid
the latter in its digestive task.
This diversion interferes with the
power 10 think. since the brain re-
quires for its most effective. func.
tioning an abundant supply of blood,
Consequently, the man who bolts
his breakfast compels an abnormal
ly long diversion OF the blood flow
from his brain. and thus haudicaps
himself mentallyNat the outset OF
his days labors.
or course IL Is possible TO a GER
tain extent to cheek the blood flow
diversion by doing intellectual work
while one is eating. But this itself
is an unhygienic practice. for UNI
less the stomach gets Sufficient aid
from the blood. digestion cannot be
properly performed. Many health
authorities accordingly condemn
without reserve the common prac-
tice OF turning the breakfast table
into "A reading desk.
And. most assuredly. reading mat
ter which necessitates vigorous use
