The Starvation Point.

To the question. ri there were Il siege, how. long do you think the SOL diers and civilians could live after tine food supplies gave Out?" an EnglirI paper answers: Science tells us that if he can get drinking water an ordinary man can exist for thirty days without food. At the end of that time the ma chinery of the body will not be spoiled and can be brought back to its former strength by careful feeding.
 About quarter of our body weight is fat, and it is mostly this fat that is absorbed as food during the period of starvation. We can absorb and burn up our muscles until 60 per cent of their weight is gone. We can do the same with from 30 to 40 per cent of our livers and digestive organs and 20 per cent of our lungs. Our hearts can lose 10 per cent and our brains and nervous systems can lose per cent.
 It will be seen that the more vital organs-brain and heart-yield least of their valuable substance for the life of the body, while the less essential sub stances-fat. muscle fiber, etc.-are con sumed first.
