FOOD AND HEALTH
BY WINIFRED STUART GIBBS.
Food Specialist.

Saws q straightforward and direct
CORRESPONDENT from Ohio: Il want TO
know lust what a we'll balanced meal
is. They talk Of building materials,
regulators and fuels. Just what is
meant by these terms? What are leafy
vegetables? What are succulent Vege-
tables? Can you suggest few well
balanced meals which have the re-
quired elements to maintain health?
l have been i'll and the doctor tells me
to eat all the nourishing foods / can.
| am not restricted. I wish to gain,
and will be glad to purchase book
on diet if | can find one"
These are just the types of ques-
tions I particularly like. They go
straight to the point. The writer
knows perfectly what she wishes to
learn, and there you are.
A we'll balanced meal may he said
to consist of foods that furnish en-
ergy. material for helping the body
build it's own tissues, material that
will help the different organs of the
body perform their own particular
work, and sufficient vitamins to keep
the body in perfect health.
An individual who is not restricted,
but needs merely to gain both flesh
and strength has a comparatively
simple problem. Perhaps the simplest
way to answer my correspondent s
questions will be to outline for her a
building up and fattening diet. She
does not tell me her age, but if she is
neither very old nor very young, re-
quiring, let us say 1000 calories of en-
ergy daily. she should increase this
amount to 5000 and her diet might
be somewhat as follows:
For breakfast, four or five good
sized prunes or the equivalent in
stewed dried apricots or, later in the
season, melon and peaches. A good
sized serving of crisply prepared ce-
real with three-quarters of cup of
thin cream. An egg and two slices of
buttered toast with a cup of cereal
coffee, or very weak coffee. or hot
cereal drink, or cocoa served with one
tablespoon of sugar.
In the middle of the morning cup
of hot milk. or matted milk For lunch
con, three-Quarters of a cup of cream
of vegetable soup without meat stock
a crisp roll with one and one-haIf
tablespoons of butter, a vegetable or
fruit salad with boiled dressing, and a
dessert of ice cream or cornstarch Gus
tard.
In the middle of the afternoon, an
egg beaten up with matted milk, or
with fruit juice or a plain glass of
milk. For dinner. a threeinch slice of
broiled steak. or of plain roast beef,
lamb or chicken, with about three.
quarters of cup of scalloped pota-
toes, or rice, or cabbage, a fruit or
vegetable salad, according to what
was served at luncheon, another Gus
tard pudding with bit of sponge cake
or nut cookie.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Tuesday, May "a.

Again threating aspects rule the
day, according to astrology, which
finds the month q period of transition.
There is a forbidding sign for all
who seek work, as there may be many
congratulations in business affairs and
long delays for employees.
This direction of the stars tends to-
ward criticism that may be prevalent
in families and will prevail in politics.
The sway is favorable to educators
and universities should benefit. Gradu-
ates of this year are to be exception
ally fortunate, it is foretold.
Occutists predict that a future
President of the United States will
receive his diploma in 1927.
Women as well as men now students
are to attain to places not dreamed of
by an older generation, it is foretold.
Science is to make amazing strides
and to bring the realm Of the un-
known into the region of human per-
ception, astrologers hazard.
Farmers may meet discouraging
conditions and they may expect dew
astating Summer storms.
While it is prognosticated that agri-
culturists will struggle against un-
toward weather conditions, profits are
still to be expected for the season,
for food prices will rise, the reading
of the stars indicates.
Bad news of some sort may be ex-
pected in the newspapers while this
configuration affects the destinies of
dwellers on the planet Earth
Persons whose birth date it is may
have year of test and trial, but they
should enjoy success III the end.
Children born on that day may meet
many obstacles in pursuing their life
vocations, hut they we'll probably climb
TO the heights wherever they have
large ambitions.

Beautifying Thin Necks.

Shortnecked people are as a rule
more robust physically than those
whose heads are set upon long bony
necks. The girl whose neck is con-
spicuously scrawny is almost always
many pounds underweight. She is
nervous type, tires easily, and in spite
of careful dieting is likely to have
bilious attacks now and then. Her
skin is sometimes very dry, but at
other times she has difficulty in keep
ing her makeup smooth on account of
excessive activity of Oil and sweat
glands in her face.
The defects that make her neck un-
sight, are in the first place faulty
posture that allows it to sag forward,
thus bringing into prominence the
ridges of the cerVical vertebrae, and,
secondly the enlargement in front,
known as Adams apple. Beside this
there are usually horizontal CT .lSes
and the skin is sallow.
In spite of it's many faults, the long,
thin neck may be developed into
real beauty asset If it is given the
right care. The very first thing to do
is to begin a weight. building program.
Menus should be revised to include
more milk and fattening foods. Break

fruit, cereal with cream and sugar,
large glass of warm milk, or a matted

After ~, what was the use of bother

so much time and attention when ii
could just as well be dispensed with
entirely?
Anot' n thing that contributed to
the assing Of the fashion for wells
was ne chm in the shape and man

merely laid on top of the head and
anchored there by a hatpin or two
wells were a necessity to keep the hair
in trim condition. And the reason
that hats changed shape and came to

cause women found that even with
wells the oldtime tOppiece was diff

a roundabout way the passing of
wells may be said to be due to the
coming of aut lobiles. though during
the first few years of the craze for
motoring int est in wells was tire,
mendously stimulated, and motor wells
of all sor.s and descriptions were sold
to well dressed women.
Most women old enough to remem-

Health Prospect.

"Will you kindly tell nre what you
think of the prospects for health of a
10-ycar-Old boy who eats large guam
ties of meat and no vegetables. who
eats only white bread and butter, hot
breads and cake and candy. He drinks
quantity of milk at every meal,
which he gulps down rapidly. He is
not very strong and is pale and ane-
mic. A reply will b. ;,.4,cfully read" !"
writes a gentleman.
He further asks: Kindly give a
proper diet for woman Of 60 who has
high blood pressure Would a raw egg
or an eggnog occasionally be injuri-
Gus? Should cup of cocoa do harm?'
The proof of the error in the 10
year.old boys feeding is apparent in
his pale, anemic looks and lack of
strength.
Any boy can be made strong. Right
living and right food will bring even
a child with a weak constitution up
to par.
1t Is a shame to handicap a growing
youngster by malnutrition. He should
have a strong, healthy body.
The prospect of health for the
youngster who eats as stated is very
poor. The boy may go on for years,
never sick but never really healthy. He
may grow up and have chronic inidges-
ton. He may get rheumatic. Or he may
develop kidney trouble. On the other
hand, because of his undernourish-
ment. he may sucCumb to any disease
which might be prevalent. He may
always be "A victim of colds. He might
get pneumonia. Or. in his adolescent
years, he might develop tuberculosis.
OF course. all these possibilities of
dreadful disease and trouble might
never develop, and it would not be
we'll to suggest these terrors to him.
But, even though he might not sue.

How do you have your hair done
In back? Get a hand glass, and sit
with your back to large mirror and
study the lines of your head, as seen
from behind, your neck, and the out
lines of your shoulders.
Here are some suggestions-for the
back view being as important as the
front view, if not more important, 1t
Is as we'll to make study of yourself
from this angle.
If you are tall and thin, so the neck
is long and little scrawny, hair that
ts not shingled but cut in fluffy bob,
straight across the back on line that
is level with the bottom of the ears,
will make the neck seem shorter and
more plump. If you are tall and slim
and we'll formed, with sloping shout
ders, hair cut to a point at the back
of the neck will be very becoming.
And if you are too stout, this point
will make the neck seem more slender
than it is. The point in the back eni-
phasizes slenderness and makes chub-
biness seem slender.
If you are SO stout you are not

Resolute Faces.

Resolution, the eighth faculty OF
the will, hH- Is index in the lower jaw
downward and under the wisdom
tooth. ,.lis is the power that resolves,
as its name implies. OF itself alone
it does not execute. Resolution in its
nature is aspiring. 1t is the wish or
will for something better or higher
than the present, so it resolves to do
better.
The faculty of resolution also
STRENGTHENS and sustains the faculty
of faithful love, which by itself might
be satisfied with the pledges, love
tokens, promises given. 1t inclines
the soul TO rest with these and to be
in no haste for their consummation.
But resolution says Now is the time.
Resolution, therefore, not being Will
ing 10 wait, removes all obstacles.
You will read the faculty of resolu'
ton by the size of and length Of the
back part Of the lower jaw just below
the lobe of tie ear and slightly for

the jaw hangs low, there is a resolute

cannot be reduced, it will become in
conspicuous as the throat muscles de.
velop around it.
Daily massage with a bleaching To-
ton will tighten the color of the skin
and smooth away the ugly creases.
80 Juice of half a lemon mixed with
one pint of milk makes a simple
bleaching preparation to use. The
massage should consist of long, strok-
ing movements across the throat and
up and down the upper spine. A gen.
tie, kneading motion over the same
area is also helpful. Alternate hot
and cold applications are also helpful
in stimulating the circulation OF the
blood and thus increasing the growth
Of the underlying tissues.
