Loss of Appetite.

As general rule there is nothing
serious about loss OF appetite. and II
you skip meal or only eat two meals
a day for q few days you will soon
have a relish fer your meals when
meal time comes. Bear in mind that
at least five hours should always
elapse between meals so as TO give the
food ample time TO digest and the
stomach a period of rest before sec
ond meal is taken. Then if YOU eat
no more than you crave and take
reasonable amount of outdoor exer-
else every day you will not need TO
worry about your appetite. When the
loss of appetite is caused by constipa-
ton as is often the case. that should
be corrected ~ once. A cose of Cham
