illnesses with which they formerly suffered
and which are directly traceable to the
stomach.
And these surprising results have been
produced, not by drugs or medicines of any
kind, not by foregoing substantial foods,
not by eating specially prepared or patented
foods of any kind, but by eating the foods
we like best correctly combinedi
These facts were forcibly brought to my
mind by Eugene Christian, the eminent
Food Scientist, who has successfully treated
over $4,000 people with foods alone!
In recent talk with Eugene Christian,
he told me of some of his experiences in
the treatment of various ailments through
food-just few instances out of the more
than $4,000 cases he has on record.
One case which interested me greatly
was that of a young business man whose
efficiency had been practically wrecked
through stomach acidity, fermentation and
constipation, resulting in physical sluggish
ness which was naturally reflected in his
ability to use his mind. He was twenty
pounds underweight when he first went to
see Christian, and was so nervous he couldn't
sleep. Stomach and intestinal gases were
so severe that they caused irregular heart
action and often fits of great mental de-
preston. AS Christian describes it, he was
not so per cent. efficient either mentally
or physically. Yet in few days, by follow
ing Christians suggestions as to food, his
constipation had completely gone, although
he had formerly been in the habit of taking
large daily doses of strong cathartic. In
five weeks every abnormal symptom had
disappeared weight having increased 6
pounds. In addition to this, he acquired
a store Of physical and mental energy so
great in comparison with his former self as
to almost belle the fact that it was the
same man.
Another instance of what proper food
combinations can do was that of a man one
hundred pounds overweight whose only
other discomfort was rheumatism. This
mans greatest pleasure in life was eating.
Though convinced of the necessity, he hesi-

tated for months to go under treatment,
believing he would be deprived of the pleas
ures of the table. He finally, however,
decided to try it out. Not only did he begin
losing weight at once, quickly regaining his
normal figure, all signs of rheumatism disap-
pearing, but he found the new diet far more
delicious to the taste and afforded much
keener quality of enjoyment than his old
method of eating, and wrote Christian
letter to that effect.
But perhaps the most interesting case that
Christian told me of was that of multi
millionaire-a man 20 years old, who had been
travelling with his doctor for several years in
a search for health. He was extremely emaci-
ated, had chronic constipation, lumbago and
rheumatism. For over twenty years he had
suffered with stomach and intestinal trouble.
which in reality was superaciduous secretions
in the stomach. The first menus given him
were designed to remove the causes of acidity,
which was accomplished in about thirty days.
And after this was done he seemed to undergo
a complete rejuvenaton His eyesight, hear
ing, taste and all of his mental faculties became
keener and more alert. He had had no organic
trouble-but he was starving to death from
malnutr:tion and decompostion-all caused by
the wrong selection and combination of foods.
After few months treatment this man was
as well and strong as he had ever been in his
life.
These instances of the efficacy of right eating
/ have simply chosen at random from perhaps
a dozen Eugene Christian told me of, every
one of which was fully as interesting and they
applied to as many different ailments. Surely
this man Christian is doing great work.
There have been SO many inquiries from all
parts of the United States from people seeking
the benefit of Eugene Christians advice and
whose cases he is unable to handle personally,

as Madame Covington, would have left
the soldiers of France merely smiling. TO
her sex they might have paid some defer

anything except as she was attached to
Monte-as woman under the protection
of her man.
This did not humble her. Her first
clean, unguarded emotion was one of
pride. Had it been her privilege to let
herself go, she would have taken her place
near him with her eyes afre-with her
head held as proudly as any queen
If she could only let herself go! AS she
came into the smoky old tavern room and
he stepped forward to meet her, she
swayed little. He looked so big and
wholesome and eager with his arms out
stretched! They were alone here. 1t
would have been so easy just to close her
eyes and let her head rest against his
shoulder-so easy and restful. He would
have kissed her hair, and the ache would
all have gone from her body and heart.
He would draw her close and hold her
tight-yes, for day or two or a month
or two. Then he would remember that
week in which she had trifed with him,
and he would hate her.
She pulled herself together.
"Is supper ready"
1t was such an inane remark! He
turned aside like boy who has been
snubbed.
Monsieur Soucin had provided bread
and cheese, a salad and coffee. 1t was
enough. She had no appetite. She took
much more satisfaction in watching
Monte and in pouring his coffee.
"Soucin lent Il mattress, which l have
arranged just the other side of the wall.
That is your room. With plenty of blan-
kets you should be comfortable enough
there, he said.
"And you?" she inquired.

piled gravely.

my heart ache. But, with monsieur to

Monte reassured him. "We shall prob
ably rise early and be on our way before

Monte slipped into his hand gold
piece. 1t was too much from one point
of view, and yet from another it was little
enough. Soucin had unwittingly made
an arrangement for which Monte could
not pay in money.
"And my share?' inquired Marjory
"One louis d or answered Monte un-
blushingly.
She fumbled in her bag and brought it
out-the last she had. And Monte. in his
reckless joy, handed that over also to
Soucin. The man was too bewildered to
do more than bow as he might before
prince and princess.

At five that evening they had made
half their journey and stopped at way

On a squeaking sign before the ancient
stone structure, which looked as if it must
have been there in the days of post

his hind legs, smiling to all who paused
there an invitation to join him in this
innocent pastime.
"That fellow has the proper spirit"
Monte declared "Shall we place our
selves in his care?"
"Im afraid | can't go any farther"
Marjory answered YEARLY.

Beetles and Their Habits.

One of the most amazing things in
natural history is the way In which
beetles have triumphed in the struggle
for existence, says Popular Science
Monthly. OF creatures they are by far
the most numerous, no fewer than
10000 distinct species having been
identified-three times the number of
backbOned animals.
Beetles are wonderfully adaptable.
They are found practically everywhere
in the frost-bound tracts of Iceland
and In the hot desert sands of Africa
on the highest mountains, under the
ground, and as fossil in the deepest
strata; on land and in water; on
plants, among stones and in wood
and EARTH and even in the very cra-
ters of volcanoes.
But there Is one place where no
beetle has yet been found-it Is the in
hospitable land of Spitzbergen, to the
north of Russia. Here are mammals,
birds, fish, mollusks, crustaceans. II

of widows, for he knows he would not
be believed, for jollying does not stand

The pretty girls in the shops do not
escape his tongue. He boasts of fiirt-
ing with a new one every day, taking
her to a movie, and not seeing her
when she passes the next time, being
attracted to prettier face.
Foolish matrons, innocent of wrong
intent, but who cannot keep the desire

mean pistols and coffee for two were

their names were handed about by
the scoundrel who boasts of making
conquests of them.
Such men are dangerous In any COM
munity. OF course their bark is worse
than their bite, but still they can
wink good womans reputation down
in less time than it takes to tell it
and do her world of harm in awak-
ening suspicion (Which should never
have existed) about her. Men should
take the matter into their own hands.
Instead of applauding the boaster, or
giving his extravagant tales the bene-
fit of the doubt. he should be sternly
cried down, scoffed at, put to shame.
Those who listen-who have sisters
OF home-can never be sure he will
not select their women folk to mix up
in his cleverly woven falsehoods. Men
who boast of their wealth are bad
enough, but the men who boast of
the women they jolly are many pegs
lower down. Many of these boosters
are not really so bad as they would
have their chums believe them to be.
They invent tales out of whole cloth
in which they show themselves up as
jolly fellows irresistible to woman
kind. They wed late, if at all. They
have given themselves bad name
which sticks to them.
