BASAL METABOLISM

Two and two make four :
sometimes. For example adding two
pounds of food-stuffs to a sack weigh
ing one hundred and two pounds
will make the sack weigh one hun
dred and four pounds, but add like
amount to living body of similar
weight and the net result is one hun
dred and one pounds.
The first person recorded by history
as having taken note of this fact and
making an attempt to explain it was a
scientist of the 18th century, named
Sanctorius. His theory was that the
slight loss in weight following the
lngestlon of meal was brought about
by what he called the "insensible
persplration of the body" His idea
while since disproven, constitutes the
foundation upon which all subsequent
studies Of metabolism have been built
What Is Metabolism?
Metabolism may best be defined as
the sum of the chemical changes that
occur in the living body. It is the
sum total Of the breaking down and
building up processes constantly going
on in the living organism. The meas
ure OF the metabolic changes in the
body IS the amount of heat produced
by the body. The end-products of
this process Of combustion are carbon
dioxide gas and water.
The combustion process itself has
as its final expression the interchange
OF gases Oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen,
carbon dioxide) in the lungs. The
difference between oxygen consump-
ton and carbon dioxide elimination
expresses the metabolic rate in the
organism. This rate is affected in
health by food, exercise, exposure to
cold, and SO on 1t is likewise modi-
fled by certain diseases.
Basal Metabolism
The metabolic rate under standard
basal conditions is one of the most |
valuable guides we have today in the
diagnosis and treatment of some dis
eases, By basal condition is meant
the level of heat production in the
resting, fasting, unexcited individual
In this state metabolism is at it's mini
mum point, and is caused solely by
the heart action, respiratory move
ment, action Of the involuntary mus
cles, secretion of glands and the
unstimulated activity of the waking
BRAIN.
The principles and standards estab-
lished by the researches with respi-
ration chambers are followed in, and
oxygen consumption made the basis
of, the basal metabolic test. In the
respiration chamber experiments the
subject was placed in the chamber for
a number Of days. Here, under all
sorts of conditions, in health and dis

tort, Smartly.
He took her hands.
my dear, supposed you we're go
ing with this new fellow. I was
dumfounded when I saw him walk
in with Edith"
She tossed her head, but the sobs
breaking in her throat made speech
impossible.
Nancy" he begged, "have I mis-
understood? Maybe your change OF
feeling had nothing to do with him
She gulped, "I didn't say it had y
mo, but thought. oh,
Nancy, is there any chance Of your
loving me? Listen. dear, I won't
ask to kiss you. Wen be just
friends. See what bought for your
Christmas gift.
II didn't give 1t to you because I
didn't understand. But now want
you to have it even If you don't
care for me.
He opened a box and held up a
small wrist watch.
"It isn't an expensive one. I had
to buy it out of my allowance"
"It's lovely" the girl cried, warm
ly. You're a darling to want to
give it to me. but I can't take it. 1t
wouldn't be fair"
He put the box into his pocket.
"All right. Nothing more I can
say. How about coming to the
dance?"

Sure"
She stared at him wistfully, but
shook her read.

before.

Edith said. IT see. An abdication
in favor of the Swedish claimant"
Nancy said nothing.
Speaking Of Eric Nelson" Edith
continued, Daddy has asked him
here for Christmas dinner tomor-
row. I don's want you to think ii
was my idea, Nancy"
Nothing to me. He doesn't have
to check in and out"
That's good. I thought perhaps
Ihe did"
II thought your father didn't like
to have him around SO much" thrust
Nancy, striking now on her own ac-
count.
Edith flushed.
HE didn't. But since you've come
to the rescue he feels it will be per-
fectly safe. The fact of the matter
is, he LIKES Eric every way except
as potential son-in-law."
Nancy rose. Color flooded her
cheeks. 1t simply infuriated her to
hear Edith even speak of him thus.
Better come to the dance,
Edith insisted, following her to the
door
without a man? No. thanks!
Who's taking you, Edith?"
"I asked Eric Nelson. Everyone
supposed, of course, you'd be going
with Raymond"
II suppose you told Eric that?"
Edith laughed.
my dear, are you really crazy
about the man? I thought you were
merely marking time"
Hating herself for a weak, silly
idiot, Nancy flew down the hill.
Even if Edith had told him, did he
have to believe it? After he knew
she had lied to him before?
If this we're a sample of his faith,
they might as well break now. She
wished Raymond would ask her to
go to the dance. She would go and
never even SEE Eric Nelson. Let
him take Edith Let him MARRY
her, she thought recklessly. If he
were as weak and variable as that,
she didn't want him.
But her eyes we're blurred with
tears. Not altogether of unrequited
love. The humiliation Of having
every one know she had not been
invited added fuel to her rage. She
told herself she hated Edith.
She would like to do something to
hurt and humiliate her. For one
mad moment she considered calling
Eric and telling him she was not
going to the dance. But why en-
barrass him? Ediths' father was his
employer.
1t would be impossible for him to
be rude even if he wished to be.
No she decided, bitterly, she woulc'
never lift her hand to explain.
And she would sit alone on

PLANS FLOOD CURB
Senator Nye Would Use
Basin of DEVILS Lake.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. - A
North Dakota lake basin provides
the largest single storage reservoir
for Mississippi river flood waters,
and the largest single prospect of
permanent flood relief, according
to Senator Nye of that State.
Nye has explained the possibilities
to President Coolidge. He hopes to
enlist the aid of lower Mississippi
Valley senator's who are working fo:
flood relief, as well as the indorSe-
ment of government engineers.
Tentatively the project includes
diversion of waters Of the Missouri
Ever above Bismark, N. D., and
emptying them by a 100-mile canal
into Devils Lake, in northeastern
North Dakota.
This lake has shrunk from width
of ten miles and length of forty
miles to "four- mile pool of salt
water" in about twenty years, Nye
said, and may dry up entirely. Culr
tivation of the surrounding country
is held responsible.
