HEALTH HINTS
DIET.

b. .
The question Of diet is the most
important to be considered when
fighting constipation.
Most people eat too much, especial
ly of meats and concentrated foods
with little residue and not enough
fruits. vegetables and coarse foods
that leave but little for the bowels
to discharge.
Fruits and vegetables in abundance
form an excellent diet, but are rather
expensive and difficult to get In the
winter.
Perhaps the best single bulky food
available to everyone winter and sum
mer is whole wheat or graham -four,
or better still, ordinary bran.
Usually from one to five teaspoon
fuls will be found to give satisfactory
results IL taken once day, or oftener
IL necessary.
Besides proper diet one should not
neglect taking plenty Of exercise ev-
cry day in the open air and drinking
plenty Of water between meals

: CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE !

SIshaye been thinking much over
what you have written me DICK and
III have come to the conclusion that
you are right in one thing. A man
tries to make his wife an angel while
only a very human woman Will satisfy
This human nature.
have come to the conclusion also
that the theory Of the oneness Of a
welded pair is very beautiful but
that reality can never work 1t out to
aEperfect conclusion.
Dick, / wonder II man ever finds
the woman that you say man always
ndores as his wife has the traditional
feet of clay. Sometimes he does and
then i think he feels quite as hurt as
do.
Today after I read your letter fo1
theSthird time my thoughts seemed to
resolve themselves into the form OF
the following rhyme. I do not know
whether you will be angry or will
laugh when you read it. i call IT,.
HER IDOL.
Shescrowned him with laurel wreath
And lgazed into his eyes beneath
TO see his soul arise.
She laid her trusting head upon his
And hoped that it might heal the
smart
OF grief in joys disguise.
She held to him her suppliant hands
And said: "He always understands
That good within me lies"
Hlind1y she worshipped and adored
And brought to him her whole great
hoard t..1Est
ofiloye that never dies.
She never knew his feet we're clay
Until one sud heartbrenking day
She dropped her eyes
And found a laughing little maid
Whola all nconscious there had strayed
Making mud pies.
That ts what you made OF me Dick,
wasn't it? Eorime the laurel crowned
head IN the clouds, the alteration and
ths trusting heart. y \;

For "the other woman" the fun, the
Responsiveness, the childish joy OF
making mud pies"
Perhaps Eleanor Fairlow was right
Dick-no one woman can be all things
to any one man. am not going to
believe it yet, however.
But IL that is so, don't hug to your
heart that any one man can be all
things to any one woman. If l have
disappointed you Dick because you
found your idol cold and irresponsible
and somewhat hard to reach on the
pedestal on which you placed ner,
your disappointment is nothing to
mine who found "the feet Of clay
