Season your eating with good cheer
 This is the advice ot q reputable Chicago physician and dietician.
 Conversation and laughter have q good effect upon the digestive sys- tenn, he says,
 Although it is true that while laughing one may swallow bit of unmasticated food, the harm IS much overbalanced by the good effect the laughter has on the stomach.
 Every lime one laughs tho dla- phragm gives the stomach an extra squeeze, and shakes it up and down.
