is with fat people. One physical condition
causes emaciation, another fat.
"The first essential thing by whlch the
mode of treatment must be determined IN
every case is the state of the kidneys
The means of cure must be regulated by
the health hfulness or debility of those vital
organs There are three important causes
of obesity. The first is artificial heat, the
second is sleep, and the third, and above
all, an abnormal condition Of the kidneys.
The last is the essential factor.
"Lethargy, drowsiness and sleep are
potential factors. Never nap. Never
sleep over seven hours, and, II you reduce
that number to six, all the better. sleep
is simply the relaxation of the muscles

The United States Fish Crop.

The total value of the American
fish crop. including that Of Alaska and
the insular possessions, is estimated
now to be .S150,O00,000. allowing for
the advances in value of the last year.
The capital invested in the fisher
les Of the United States, including ves-
sells and the land establishments for
handling the fish, Is estimated at about
S75,000O0O. and the number of per-
SONS employed is 100000 The value
Of the sea. products turned out by the
canneries is S50,000OO0.
Food experts did well during the
war times to urge Americans to eat
more fish. not only because this helped
conserve the supplies Of beef and pork
products but also because eating some
good fish frequently means a change
in the average mans diet which is TO
his benefit. The same argument holds
true in regard to vegetables and green
things, Of which many people in cit
les do not eat enough for their own
good. ~l
