Will you kindly send me your list
for a reducing diet? I am five feet
tall and weigh nearly 40 pounds. !
have also a touch of kidney trouble
and work eight hours as a machine
operator.-E. NJ. H.
The modern theories as to the best
way of planning a reducing diet is
to give an all-round mixed diet and
to serve each food in smaller portions
than the average. The old-time way
of serving a very fat person is tr
discard fats.
A woman who should have normal
ly 1900 calories day may safely
reduce her total energy to 1850.
A suggested diet plan might be
something like this. Breakfast, ar
orange or apple, one soft cooked egg
with one slice of unbuttered toast
and coffee with two tablespoons of
SKINNED milk instead of cream.
In the middle OF the morning, one
half cup of broth with one plain
cracker.
For luncheon the lean part of q
broiled chop with two slices OF whole
wheat bread, lettuce, as much as de-
sired with varied dressings. cottage
cheese used occasionally and Ameri-
can cheese added to the French dress
ing occasionally.
At tea time cup of tea with lemon
and one plain cracker
Fer dinner serving of plain boiled
fish of the lean variety such as hall
but or cod, one-half Of a plain boiled
potato, a generous serving of cab
bage or similar vegetable, green
salad with a plain fruit dessert and
a cup of black coffee.
At bedtime a cup of hot skimmed
milk.
I always enjoy reading your talks
about diet and am now coming with a
peculiar question of my own. 1t does
not relate exactly to diet, but 1 think
that you could perhaps help me. 1t
is about a condition of my mind ]

Boy, Out to SaIrage Stranded Yacht,
Offers Park Police Head SubcOntract
Hires Out to Bring Boat to Shores of Refecng Pool
But Water Is Too Deep-Seeks to Engage
Lieut.. Carroll for Cents.

Somewhere in this big Capital City
is a young American not afraid TO
tackle a big man or big job, and at
the same time figure on making a
little money by sub.contracting.
Two little fellows, not yet feet
high, stood on the wall of the great
rejecting pool in West Potomac Park
In the center of the great pool was q
little sail boat. 1t was becalmed. 1t
was their first taste of the uncertainty
of nature. But nature was not help
ing much, and their heads were put
together to study ways and means
and they cast doubtful looks at the
pool the depth of which they knew
little.
Said the owner and master of the
vessel, who had heard something OF
salvage operations on the sea:
I'm give you 10 cents to go out
there and get it and tow it in

as he squatted down to remove his
shoes and stockings, preparatory TO
going right into the salvage contract

them with the fact that where the

Franco British conditions-is another
matter. While the British note of
adhesion has not been made public,
it is known what points BRAND made
in drafting his reply to Stresemann.
Germany Binds Self.
And if Britain has accepted French
conditions, Germany, by signing the
security pact, will bind itself first to
respect everything in the treaty of
Versailles; second, to enter the League
of Nations without reservations, ac-
cepting all responsibilities as we'll as
enjoying the rights of the league;
third to guarantee the inviolability
of the Rhineland and Belgium and
bind itself to obligatory arbitration
agreements over any incident arising
on other than the eastern frontiers.
The existing frontiers being treaty
frontiers, or growing out of treaties,
are not to be discussed, according to
BRAND.
The British adhesion is evidently due
to the fact that the BRAND note is SO
written that frontier involability, as
guaranteed by the signatories, applies
only to the Rhineland, as Germany
suggests.
Thiz releases Britain from further
responsibility and makes it impossible
to draw the British into a war over
Poland or Czechoslovakia. But BRAND,
by stating precisely that no existing
rights be abridged, has left open the
right of France to go to the support
of her eastern allies and, if she wishes,
to cross Germany for that purpose.

While representatives Of the furni.

of the furniture manufactured in this

gun to form in his most primitive pre-
courSers. OF the other species of life
found, nothing remains today, even
the coral representing a type unknown
in this age. No remains of recent ami
mails were found. 1t had been thought
that the bones Of creatures belonging
TO the age of reptiles might have been
discovered, but examination of the
underground passages disclosed that
the lost rivers were subject to floods
just as those on the surface
The journey through the caves wa
one of constant peril for the explor
ers, who time and again were obliged
to swing themselves across deer
chasms by means of ropes.
In the pits of these gorges long
needlelike stalagmites waited to i'm
pale any who slipped or took a false
step. Progress was made a foot al
a time and sometimes only by inches
When the explorers were halted by
the waterfalls they were disappointed
that they had not yet discovered the
mouths of the rivers. Fate, however
had planned surprise for them.
Farmer Solves Mystery.
A few hours after the second ex
cursion had been completed farmer
living not far from the caves came
to the hotel and complained that the
clear water that had formerly eusheC

that he could expect the same condi

Sawdust was poured into one of the
rivers and Is hours later it begar

Like the surface rivers of this sec

meander around. and this accounts
for the extraordinary length of time
Scores of similar springs, it is said
probably exist at the foot of the

In a quandary they stood by. Not

big thing to the master. He must get

thing to the salvage contractor, es-

master to remain, and tramped up 10
the Navy Building, where he sought
out Lieut.. Carroll, the jovial head of
the United States park police, who is

He acquainted Lieut.. Carroll with

he had a big policeman behind him a
