YOUR HEALTH
BY DR. CLIFFORD G. ROBINSON
Health in Fasting

The chief reason for many dis
eases is overeating. The old Eng
lish maxim: rise from the table
with an appetite and you will never
sit down without one" is good logic
and health advice as we'll.
Heavyweights frequently appeal
for aid in removing non-working fat
tissue. The best advice would be:
eat less, fast more. drink plenty of
water and hit the highway for
healthy hikes.
Fasting is in reality one of the
greatest medicines, or shall l say
remedies for the correction of diges-
tive troubles, such as belching, sour
stomach, liver trouble, diabetes and
heartburn.
How, when and how long fasting
shall continue depends on a number
of conditions. One of these is eli
mate, another is your own condition
of strength, while a third is the kind
of work you are engaged in and what
your habits are.
If you live in a fairly hot climate,
where evaporation from the skin is
rapid, you must drink plenty of
water along with your fasting and
not have it continue more than two
or three days. Persons who are nat.
urally robust and good feeders can
continue their ordinary occupations
while fasting without any let-up in
efficiency for a week or more. Those
engaged in hard manual labor or
vigorous outdoor work will find 1t to
their advantage, while fasting, to be
sure and get the full amount of rest
required.
How to fast: abstain from eating
for one day and see how 1t affects
you.
Do your regular routine work. You
might eat a very light breakfast, but
no other food during the day. Drink
five or six glasses of water. Fasting
gives a rest to your digestive system
Fasting may be of two kinds:
complete abstinence, during a GER
tain period, or eating a small amount
of carefully selected food at regular
intervals during your fasting period
or as long as you desire. 1t is some
thing to be carried out like exercise.
Do not expect yourself III be
changed into a new person in one
day of fasting. 1t may become q
habit with you to fast, SO to speak,
all the time. In other words, to eat
with great moderation and thereby
increase your bodily health and
longevity.

SENATOR BRIGHT DOOMED
FOR SENATE PRESIDENCY

TRENTON, Nov. 9:-That Senator
William IL. Bright. of Cape May
county, may become the Edge can
didate for senate president when the
Republican aucus meets was an in
teresting bit of political gossip here
today. Mr.. Br' ght, who is entering
upon his sixth year in the upper
House is regarded as ms of the
seasoned and veteran members Of
that body.
1t is known that the Cape May
senator is on friendly terms with the
Edge following among the Republi-
can senators and the TACT that he is
classed as q dry, is given as the
particular reason why he would be
particularly fitting to represent the
Atlantic senator in the plans for the
organization of the 1924 senate. Mr..
Edge, who will be a candidate FOR
denomination next fall, although
''wet" himself must keep in line the
South Jersey "drys' of whom Bright
is a conspicuous leader. The lat
ter's selection as senate president, by
the help of the Edge faction, ought
to win friends for the senior
tor not only among the South Jersey
Republican primary voters but the
forces oil the league, as
we'll. This is the opinion of Bright's
friends at least, and inasmuch as
some dry senator has to be picked
for senate president anyway why
not Bright" they ask.
From an organization standpoint
it will be recalled that in the last
session Bright stood with his party
throughout the highway fight. HI
was solidly aligned with Senator's
Richards, of Atlantic, Smith, of Pas
sale, Mackay, of Bergen, Wallworth.
of Camden. Reeves, of Cumberland,
Mathis, of Ocean, and Allen, of Sa-
lem, and those behind the Bright
candidacy for president Of the 1924
senate point to this evidence of his
party regularity.
The Cape May senator is now the
head of all the Odd Fellows through
out New Jersey, having been elected
at the annual convention of the fra
ternal organization last summer, and
it is c%ontended hat the Edge can
didacy would make many friends In
this organization by the Atlantlc
senator's support for Bright.
