THE HEAD NURSE SAYS:
FOOD PALACES INCLUDE

The one that fish is a brain food:
that celery is good for the nerves,
that any special food acts on any
particular part OF the body. In fact
food is fuel in its raw state, and
many changes take place before 1t
is actually absorbed into the blood
to become a supply OF heat and en-
ergy, so that psychologists agree
that no particular food can be pre-
scribed for the brain worker.
Mental work requires attention to
diet for two distinct reasons. In the
first place, it involves for the great
er part a sedentary life: and in the
second place. the processes of d.
gestion are likely to interfere more
or less with the most effective
working of the brain.
Hence feeding for mental work Is
largely a question of feeding for
the sedentary life. The mental
worker needs less food than the la
borer and less proteids. He needs
most easily digested food. This
class of persons is as a rule deeply
absorbed and takes little pleasure
in eating. which means that the
gastric juice will flow sluEgishly.
Too much fat or carbohydrates will
pile up fat.
The mental worker can not retain
mis- efficiency by proper diet alone.
He must have sufficient exercise; he
must keep the whole law Of health
or his mental calibre will deterlo-
rate.
There Is no specific brain food"
All the fish in the sea will not make
a Napoleon in the realm of the in
tellectual unless Common Sense Is

Daily Horoscope
THURSDAY. JUNE 5. 1920.

This is a lucky day. according to
those who read the stars. for Saturn
and Uranus are both in q strongly
benefic aspect.
During this sway the counsels OF
the old and experienced will be
heard with unusual respect, it is
held, and heed will be given to
conservative advice.
While Uranus is believed to en-
courage positive opinions and to
clarity ideas the effect of tradition
will be strong. so that all the re-
dictionary forces may clash with
progressive ideals.
Agriculturists should make the
most of this rule. which seems to
promise much in the way of good
crops we'll marketed.
AS the summer quarter ap-
proaches the seers again forecast a
season of extreme heat following a
late spring. Sanitation should be
improved in homes and cities should
be thoroughly cleaned.
Mortality among children may be
serious from this date on and the
problem of feeding will be urgent.
Danger of public indifference to
the claim of the unfortunate has
been frequently foretold and it Is
prophesied that startling event
will prove that the nation has suf-
fered grave reaction after the
wars awakening to ideals of uni
versal brotherhood.
There is a sign forbidding for
foreign travel which will be heavy.
Severe storms at sea again are
forecast.
Standardization in dress will be
accomplished to certain extent.
the seers again prophesy. Agita-
tion concerning clothing was fore
told many months ago, but its cul-
mination will not be apparent un-
til the late fall.
Education that will be of great
value to women is prophesied. This
will have it's origin in political re-
sponsibilities. but will extend to all
economic relations.
Again the rise Of new leaders
among women and the disappear
ance of those long in command are
prophesied.
/ Persons whose birthdate it is will
| have a quiet and successful year.
Business will prosper if speculation
/ is avoided.
j Children born on this day will be
steady and persevering. quick and
clever. They should progress rapid
| ly in anything they undertake.

''Oh, you're an angel" said the
man. Depend upon woman to
throw the blame upon a man."
I'm not blaming you. I'm only

Corny took out his card case
and looked over his collection.
He selected one that read: Mr..

he had inveigled from a tourist
at the King Edward Hotel.
Corny stepped up to the man
and presented it with a correctly
formal air.

oh. l should say mott clucked
Arabella. Charlie will be glad to
have you give away some of his
gingerbread"
"Oh. he will. will he?" suddenly
called harsh and unpleasant
voice. Well. I'll take some of that
gingerbread boy right now. In
fact. I'll take 1t all. and then I'll
take Uncle Wiggilys sousew And

he had bought for Charlie.
Where is the gingerbread boy"
Missed the Skeezicks. You said
you'd give some to the next crea-
ture you met, and I'm it, I am! I
want gingerbread and souse. Hand
II over"
Uncle Wiggily held out the brown
boy he had bought in the 6 and H.
cent store. The Skeezicks most
impolitely grabbed it and bit off the
head. And then you should have
seen the queer look that came over
the bad chaps face! His mouth
was full Of lathery foam and he
cried!

The lady's escort INDUCED in
more elegantly expressed but
fetching repartee. Corny. eschew-
ing his truck drivers vocabulary
retorted as nearly as he could in
polite phrases. Then diplomatic
relations were severed; there was
a brief but lively set-to with
other than oral weapons, from
which Corny came forth easily
victor.
A carriage dashed up. driven
by a tardy and solicitous coach
man.
will you kindly open the door
for me?" asked the lady. Corny
assisted her to enter. and took
off his hat. The escort was be-
ginning to scramble up from the
sidewalk.
Il beg your pardon. ma'am.'
said Corny. IF he's your man"
Hes no man of mine" said
the lady. Perhaps he-but
there's no chance of his being
now. Drive home, Michael II
you care to take this-with my
thanks"
Three red roses were thrust
out through the carriage window
into Corny's hand. He took them
and the hand for an instant; and
then the carriage sped away.
Corny gathered his foes hat
and began to brush the dust
from his clothes.
Come along" said Corny
taking the other man by the arm
His late opponent was yet 4

he had received. Corny led him
carefully into a saloon three
doors away.
