The Pythagorians of Ancient
Greece ate simple food, practiced tenn

used the five pointed star which they
regarded as symbol of health. A
red FIVE pointed star appears on each

and still fulfls its ancient mission as
a symbol of health. If you are troubl-

Useful Information.

The easiest way and the best
way to expand the chest is to have
a large heart in it.
1t is kind treatment that the
world most needs. Loving kind
ness is greater than laws, and the
charities of life are more than all
ceremonies. A kind word or a
kind look will act on those on
whom coercion has been tried in
vain. 1t is easy to be kind. Kind
ness is the cheapest of all things,
its exercise requiring the least pos
sible trouble and self-sacrifce. .-Ex
