who lived from fifty to three hun
dred thousand years ago.
The earliest men were savage
creatures. They had no tools or
weapons except those they might
pick I'D from the ground, or break
from tree. To guard themselves
from wild beasts, they used stones,
sharp sticks, and clubs.
1t is interesting to think Of what
they may have eaten besides the
flesh of small animals. There were
plenty of hazelnuts, sweet chestnuts,
blackberries and wild pears to be
gathered. Brooks might yield water
cress, and quick hands might seize
fish. Honey left by bees in out-of-
the-way places was doubtless found
and eaten by these half-wild men
who were struggling for life amid
widest nature.
This picture will give you an idea
of the way some of the earliest men
are believed TO have looked

lowed each day, it is comparatively
simple matter to compute the amount
of the other carbohydrate foods he
may eat.
Better results are obtained for the
diabetic patient if four or five meals
day are taken instead of three; a
second breakfast and afternoon tea
may be added. Half of the daily
allowance of bread should be taken
at the midday meal, and it is better
that at least a third Of the daily
bread allowance be used as equiva-
ents. that is, vegetables and fruits.
Sacdarine may be used for Sweeten-
ing in place of sugar. 1t has no food
value but is intensely sweet, having
500 times the sweetness of cane su-
gar. The taste remains in the mouth
much longer than that of sugar, and.
as with constant use a bitter taste
develops, it should be used. as little as
possible to get good results. In addi-
ton to rigid diet, the diabetie pa
tient should have careful living with

DIET AFTER FIFTY

AS a person reaches the. age where
muscular activity is materially les
sened, a decided change should be
made in the diet. At first it should
probably be merely lessening of the
amount of energy forming foods
consumed, as there is not enough ac-
tivity to dispose of the same amount
of this type of fod as may be eaten
by a person in the prime of life, es-
pecially where muscular. activity IS
great, and every bit in excess Of what
the body really needs may go to form
additional fat. The tendency to in
crease in weight is sure indication
that the amount of fuel food con-
sumed is greater than is needed for
the amount of energy expended.
Everyone should weigh regularly and
if there is a tendency to be constant
ly ten or fifteen per cent over
weight, then the diet should be regu-
lated so as to contain smaller num-
Der of calories and smaller percent
age of energy forming foods.
Frequently the appetite of 4 person
past middle life is as keen IS ever
and the tendency is. of course, to
follow the eating habits acquired IN
earlier years without reference to
the lessened demand on the body
There is much greater danger at this
age of overeating than of being un-
der-nourished. If the diet up to this
time has been well balanced, with
only moderate amount of meat,
rich foods, and sweets, and fruit and
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-06-08

vegetables in abundance, then the
reduction is merely matter of
quantity. Smaller portions of each
food should be eaten, and if there is
no hurry about eating. and masticar
ton is thorough, the appetite viii
still be satisfied even with a consid-
cradle reduction in the amount OF
food consumed in "a hours. If, how
ever. there has been large percent
age of meat, fat foods, sweets, and
other rich. energy producing foods
in the diet, then change OF kind IS
necessary as we'll as a reduction Of
quantity, More fruits and vege-
table should be used, and 1t is well to
supply protein from other sources
rather than meat as a general thing,
although meat occasionally'is a good
thingTand serves to lend variety to
the diet. Water should be drunk
freely, so as to facilitate the elimina-
ton of waste and keep the body IN
good condition.
There is no reason why person
should BE- made to feel old merely
because he is not quite as active as he
used to be. but there is also no rea-
son to shorten life when a few
simple precautions in the matter OF
diet will make him feel as well as he
ever did and will prolong his life
for many usefui years.

DIET IN DIABETES

The regulation of the diet is the
most important part of the treat
ment of diabetes. The most Strlk-
ing symptom of this disease, says
Roses Feeding the Family, Is an
impaired power of utilizing carDohy-
.drates in the system. These ordlnar-
lily circulate in the blood as sugar and
1 are burned by the muscles Tor tuel,
or stored in the muscles and liver.
in the diabetic the sugar IN the blood
cannot be burned and accumulates
in the blood until a certain point Is
reached when it passes INTO the
urine. The sooner the disease Is
treated. the better chance there Is
of arresting its progress and keep
ing the patient in comparatively
good health and comfort. The pres
ence of excessive sugar in the blood
lowers resistance to bacterial lntec-
ton, acts as a poison, and weakens
the organs concerned in the process
by the strain of trying to care Tor
more than they are able.
While certain general principles IN
regard to diet for diabetes can be Iald
down, each patient needs to be stud
led by a physician in order to deter
mine how much carbohydrate he can
take care of. He should also be
given a pair of scales measuring
grams for weighing his food be-
cause it is a matter too critical to be
left to the measurement of the eyes
N. C. Foster has published in the
American Journal of Medical Scien-
ces a series of tables showing list
of foods containing little o. no carb-
ohydratc, protein foods, and fat
foods. and a few vegeta bleS such aS

sprouts, cabbage, celery, chard. Gu

which the diabetic patient may eat
without restriction unless there is q
special necessity for limiting the
amount of protein consumed; and q

carbohydrate foods which must be
added to menu only after the ply
stefan has determined the amount OF
such food the patient can convenient

show the equivalent of all these
carbohydrate foods in white bread,
so that if the patient knows how
many grams of white bread he is al

THE EARTH's FIRST MEN

Once heard a housewife COM
planning to the grocer about some
bread she had bought.
az was so stale" she said, chat
it must have been baked in the Year
One"
The grocer was puzzled for a mo-
ment and scratched his head. Then
he realized it was kind of joke and
q broad grin spread over his face.
1t was certainly a joke, for bread
baked in the Year One would have
been stale indeed That year was
over nineteen hundred years ago. A
single year is a long time, and nine
teen hundred of thenl-well, we can't
realize how much time that is.
The earth, however, was in exist

who study nature are called "scien-
lists They have learned great
deal about the layers Of rock near the
surface of the earth. BY the way
these layers are formed, they are led
to believe that the earth is millions
of years old.
The human race. however, appears
not to have been living for as much
as a million years. Some scientists
say the first people lived about five
hundred thousand years ago. Their
belief is based on the finding of part
of skeleton deep in the ground on
the island of Java. This skeleton
must be half a million years old, and
there is reason to believe it be-

VACANT HOUSES

TN THEIR grave solitude and desc
- latfon, vacant houses are pathetic
reminders Of empty minds, neglected
and forgotten by those able to take
best care Of them.
On old country roads you may often
e such ~habitations, seemingly eager
to prefer a smile of welcome, but
quite unable to do 1t.
Rank weeds are about the doors,
the walls are w~eather-worn and
stained, presenting altogether a sad
picture.
And these vacant houses started
gayly In life; warm in friendship and
love. full OF hope and aspiration,
AS the years rolled by they
dreamed less and finally sank into a
hopeless state Of dependency.
You may like vacant houses or not,
but there they are, telling in a Ian
guage of their own of the days that
r departed and the joys that are done.
And what happens to vacant houses
happens in a far more lamentable
way to empty minds, whose owners
h%abitually neglect them, and pay for
their disregard the sharpest penalties,
at a time when their own reward
should be munificent.
II you are wilfully neglecting your
mind, allowing the weeds to grow
about the doorway, you will find some
