CONTENDS THAT THIN
PERSONS LIVE LONGEST

Recent investigations show that
the longest life and best health are
not to be found among those of av-
erage build at any particular age.
On the contrary, it is discovered that
in those at the younger age who are
slightly over weight and at the older
ages among those who are distinctly
under weight, the longest life and
best health will be found.
Overweight is, above thirty-odd
years, a definite disadvantage to
health. 1t means staleness, lack of
elasticity, clogged up tissues, and
lack of the power of adaptability to
invading germs.
Men from 20 to "a can be accept
ed as healthy and for long life. so
to 60 pounds above normal. Less
excess weight is permissible between
25 and so and Increasingly less as
you go up. There are one-third
more deaths among men between Is
and so who are so pounds to 60
pounds fatter than they should be
for a given height.
At the ages of "a to As from So
pounds to As pounds heavier weight
than a man should be, doubles his
risk of death. For any one above
35 who is 80 pounds too obese, life
insurance companies hereafter will
consider poor risks or raise their in
surance rates.-[London Ideas.
