Diet and Energy

The Salvation Army acquires new
merit, just as we thought all had been
said, when we learn that half Of a
doughnut will provide lifting power to
carry a man to the top Of the Washing
ton monument "a climb Of 555 feet),
and six walnuts will do the same,
while three medium-sized olives will
see you comfortably half mile on
your way. A single caramel, says a
discouraging article in the American
Journal Of Medicine, supplies energy
for miles constitutional. Think Of
the mistaken picnic lunche0ns that
have been laboriously carried in the
past. Reflect that six olives and six
caramels are all you need to supply
steam fora seven-mile walk, and think
how casually these man be eaten sit
ting over a supper table.

Make Your Speech Short.

It's mark of business ability to
say much in few words. 1t saves
time. The man at the other end Of
the wire doesn't want sermon from
you. He called you for facts, not en-.
tertainment. If that were on his mind
he would 60 to the theater and get
the real thing. Neither does your cor
respondent want to read a page to
learn that you want six sectional
cases, quartered oak, dark finish, size
124, grade 900, shipped by express.
He wants your order in the fewest
words. It saves him time and it will
save yours, too. It's good thing to
aim at the greatest conciseness and
exactness Of expression. You are apt
to make fewer mistakes when you can
make few words tell your whole story.
You will rise in the business world
AZ you are able to do it.
