A late book IL devoted to the art of

Every writer Is 4 rule unto himself
and ne scatters the points In any way

book does not stop with suggesting
rules for the correct use Of points, but
impresses US with the idea that the
most important use Of pointing is to
give explicit meaning to the paragraph.
But there IL 20 much writing done
these days that very little regard is
paid to either Of these objects. We see

Loss M Appetite.

A. q general rule there is nothing
serious about q loss Of appetite, and
if you skip a meal or only eat two
meals q day for few days you will
soon have relish for your meals when
meal time comes. Bear in mind that
at least five hours should always
the food ample time to digest and
the stomach . period of rest before q
second meal is taken. Then if you
eat no more than you crave and take
q 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 at once. A dose Of
Chamberlain's Tablets will do it.
