Bon Genre artists have perfectly seized.
People who 40 not know much about
art may take fright at the word light
which has been applied to these draw

ness OF touch goes with light period.
and that one Of the most essential SER
vices an artist performs Is to be in his
period. The historian with the ability
to read styles in painting would scarcely
have 10 be told that something serious
occurred between the production Of the
Fragonards and Bouchers and the works

rign. looking at a Vatican or Boucher
would know that something serious was
doomed to follow them. These Bon
Genre drawings light up the pre-war

VITAMINS AND APPETITE
By H. Addington Bruce

BY H. Addington Bruce
THOSE who, for no reason known to
themselves or to their doctor, suffer
from a marked loss of appetite may
possibly find an explanatory hint in the re-
suits of some curious experiments recently
reported by Yale scientist, w. G. Kari
Kari took several dogs and placed them
on liberal ration Of mixed diet containing
all the food elements commonly supposed to
suffice for the body's needs-the proteins,
fats, carbohydrates, and inorganic salts. The
dogs ate this food greedily at first, but after
a few days their desire for it fell off, and
soon or late they would scarcely touch it.
Then Karr administered to them-much
as a physician would administer a tonic to
an ailing neutrality-suspicious. made from
other fOodstuffs known to be rich in vitamins
especially the so-called water-soluble vitamin
B. Chiefly, as basis for his novel 'tonfcs,"
he made use of tomatoes, milk, brewery yeast,
and bakers yeast. =
Now the dogs promptly accepted anew the
diet for which most of them had lost all
appetite. And they continued to eat it with
relish day after day, so long as the vitamin-
containing preparations were given to them.
These being withdrawn, the diet containing
no vitamins became unappetizing to them
again.
Which leads the Journal of the American
Medical Association to comment editorially:
From the results recorded it is evident
that in the dog-and doubtless this applies to
other species-some relation exists between
the desire to partake of food and the amount
of the so-called water-soluble B vitamin in
lgested.
"a rather definite minimum amount of
this food factor seems to be necessary to sus-
tain the desire to partake of food that is
otherwise adequate for nutrition. The guam
tity varies with the animal"
Moreover, in the case of the dogs which
continued to eat for an appreciably longer
period than their fellows the diet contained
no v1tamlns distinct symptoms of malnutri-
ton and sometimes of outright disease de-
veloped.
When this happened the experimenter
found that all their symptoms could be allie
Waited in a surprisingly shore time-a few
hours-by giving them medicines" having
brewery yeast or tomatoes as their chief con-
st1tuent. Continuance of this treatment soon
restored the dogs to normal in appearance
and behavior
Now, 1t is certain that many people do not
eat SUCH Misunderstanding food as milk and
green vegetables to anything like the extent
they should. Some subsist-or try to subsist
ON diets about as devoid of vitamins as the
diet given to the dogs of Karr's experiments
1t may very well be that, as in the case
or the dogs, definite relation exists between
Vltamln-absent or vitamin-scanty diet and
loss OF appetite in human beings If So the rec
storat1on OF appetite, hence in prove nent in
nutrition, would obviously be simple mat
ter.

THE CUSSING OF DAWES
By DR.. Frank Crane

There are times
Don't forget that, in all your moralities
and congratulations
Law is law, and right is right and hand
some IS handsome, but plague take you! we
are all human, and there are times
Take swearing for instance
There is no doubt that profanity is wrong,
rat ugly Damn, down through darn and dunn
even to doggone. Wrong. And naughty. And
don't let me ever hear you say such a thing
Still, there are times.
AS, see the case of the captain Of H. M. S.
Pinafore (Gilb. and Su1l. Op. Pin), where
that gentleman, of the very highest social
standing, who was always mindful of the
proprieties (and so were his sisters and his
cousins and his aunts0 declared that he never
used big, big d.
1t is on record that his gallant crew, over
hearing this remark, made bold to inquire,
in unison.
What never?"
And the captain, with that nice sense or
honor, and meticulous respect for accuracy,
so characteristic of the high born, replied,
after a moments reflection,
"Well, hardly ever"
Whereupon, it is said, the crew, breaking
for a moment in their enthusiasm the strict
discipline of the service, shouted, under care
eul intoxicating by the orchestra leader
''He never says big, big D!
Then give three cheers and one cheer more
For the gallant' captain of the Pinafore!"
Something of this sort occurred recently
when the distinguished banker and states
man, Charles G.. Dawes, was testifying before
the Congressional Investigating committee.
Entirely out of patience with the shoppers,
muckrakers and scandal mongers who have
been doing their best to smirch everything
and everybody connected with the recent war,
and to prove that, instead of being Sir
GalIahad going to tn rescue of distressed
Europe, America was gigantic hog rushing
to get what it could from the shambles, Mr..
Dawes, irritated, Tin which irritation he is

Belgium Rebuilding

The remarkable restoration of transport
service in Belgium is commented on in
Central News dispatch in The Manchester
Guardian.
The Brussels correspondent of the Central
News says that in the two years since the
armistice 500 miles Of the national railway
system have been reconstructed, while Of the
light railways or steam tram system the re-
stored mileage amounts to $50. Most of these
lines were destroyed by the Germans in the
course Of their military occupation of Elan
ders.
Close upon 800 bridges ana foot bridges
have been rebuilt, although some of them
are only temporary constructions. Six hun
dred miles of canals and other Waterways
were chokea Gp at the arnistice N&th sunk.
en- Soats, ruins ana rubbish. Teday ever FIVE
sixths OF the mileage has been again MADE
navigable. The only length of canal that is
not now in operation is a stretch Of the
y uch-damaged waterway at Ypres. Zeebrugge
which was practically put right out Of serv-
ice before the Germans left, is again in full
working order, with the exception of some
quayside equipment.
