penetrated.
1T is first fear Of starvation, and
from this fear rises a sort of psyche
logical hunger. This confusion of
ideas is sometimes exciting. sometimes
crippling and robs one of courage and
sense. Fear of starving will cause
many to make luxurious use of avail

tricks to attempt to cover themselves
with reserve layer of fat for times
Of still greater scarcity.
