intemperance In Consumption Of Food
Declared Responsible for Much
Suffering for Humanity,

Someone has ratheF aptfy said that
"one-third of what We eat enables US
to live and the othT two-thirds pro-
vides a living fer the DOCTORS" re-
marks a writer in Farm and Home.
And undoubtedly overeating, quite as
much as improper foods, is responsible
for many of our bodily ills; for all that
Is eaten over that required to nourish
our bodies and furnish the necessary
energy, overtaxes the organs of diges-
ton and elimination and prematurely
wears out the human engine, just as
too much fuel moro quickly burns out
a furnace OF the kitchen range.
Intemperance in food is prolific
source of colds, obesity, govt, rheuma-
tisul, Bright's disease, constipation and
other ills. High living, overeating and
too much protein food is also said to
he conducive to the development of
cancer-for this disease, as a rule,
does not attack the moderate livers Or
the underfed. True, different individu-
ais require varying amounts of food,
according to occupation and size Of
body, though this difference is not so
great as many think.
Most people troubled with obesity
are partial to the fascinating foods
sweets and starches-and are all
around good feeders" A certain very
stout young woman is so afflicted,
and also addicted to the practice OF
nibbling at sweets between meals, and
at bedtime. She also has occasional
dreadful attacks of acute indigestion.
Her physician'c advice when last called
was: Gust watch your diet, little girl;
there is no preventive except to eat
moderately and regularly"

Rebuked.

The persevering landscape painter
knew that he had an observer looking
over his shoulder at the easel. He
knew from the rustic Of skirts that
the observer was woman; yet he
worked steadily on. Presently the OBJ
server spoke:
"a charming landscape" she said.
"Ah, you flatter me-" said the art
list, modestly. Compared with the
original landscape it is very poor
stuff"
IT meant the original" said the OBJ
server.

A Cancellation.

A telegraph clerk in an outlying dis
trict Of the Sudan found the dcsolation
getting the better of his nerves and
telegraphed to headquarters: Cant
stay here; am in danger Of life; sur
rounded by lions, elephants and
wolves"
The hard-hearted clerk at headquar-
ters wired back: There are no
wolves in the Sudan"
The next day the desolate one re-
piled: referring to my wire Of the
