SECRETS OF
HEALTH
Nv Dr. g. "A. II. Reed

UoU have heard much and
often from me in protest
against reducing your normal rat
below the normal limit. It seems
but fair that / should say some
thing to you about abnormal rat
that is to say fat in excess Of the
normal proportion. This is the
condition called obesity.
Until a short time ago a stout
person, particularly il he had a
rudy complexion, was never con-
sidered an object of pity. Sur
plus flesh was considered a sign
of good living and physical fit
ness. LET me have men about
me that are fat, says julius Gaze
sar in Shakespeare's play. Now,
however, physicians and public
alike are beginning to recognize
that obesity is not mark of
health, but really a symptom of
constitutional inferiority. They
often find it the forerunner of
serious and fatal diseases, such
as hardening Of the arteries, fatty
degeneration, diabetes, etc.
The reason for the change has
been the awakening of the public
to the message of vital STATISTICS
which point out the larger per-
centage of mortality among obese
people. These, in turn, has led to
a great alteration in the public
taste.
Nowadays men and women are
more concerned with reducing
their weight and keeping slim. 1t
is a good thing to keep fit, but
unfortunately the desire is too
often only a senseless fad.
People, to carry out this fad, do
all sorts Of damaging things in.
stead OF going to the physician
who is the only person who really
knows about the condition and is
qualified to deal with it. The
mere physical culture specialist
has no training in the disease
origin of overweight. He Is very
liable to subject all applicants to
the same routine of exercise and to
prescribe vaguely the same diet.
Obesity is not a simple disease
with one definite cause. It may
be, and indeed often is, due to
overeating and a sedentary life,
but just as often the cause is some
deep-rooted insufficiency in the en-.
doctrine system, the so-called duct
less glands, which it would be folly
and worse to attempt to treat by
the same methods.
The severity Of obesity, or adj
posity, due to overeating varies &C
cording to the amount and kind
of the surplus food usually in
dulged in. Protein food (meat, fish,
eggs, cheese. etc.) is not fattening.
This is because any protein which
the body does not require is soon
"split" or used up. and thrown
out. The effect of overeating
proteins is rather to strain the
kidneys with a tendency to pro-
duce Bright's disease and other
troubles. An excess of carbohy-
drates Starch, sugar, etc. is
changed into glycogen and stored
in the liver and muscles.

stuff in scarlet glaze; even the

That's great. Color is going to
revoiutionize American life if we
give it a chance. But it won't do
so If we merely smear color on
our possessions and hang it about
our necks. You can't change
yourself into a vivid, audacious
personality by simply wearing
jade earrings and batik scarfs.
You can't pep UP your business
by merely putting chintz hang
ings in your windows. Color must
go deeper than that If you're to

between color and character.

These moods will color your
room, your office and your
life as surely as the pillows, the
wall paper, the rugs and the
draperies.
II you want color to help your
life you must be it as well as
buy it.
Then live color.
Be azure and vermillion, emer-
aid, amythyst, rose.
Oben the windows of the spirit,
let yourself go, let yourself glow.
Dare to feel!
Dare to love!
Dare to laugh!
Dare to take chances!
Put aside your cool1es and
caution; your reserve; your suspi-
cion; your intolerance. Dare to
give yourself to people. Dare to
make them into your life.
STOP LIVING LIKE AN ICE

BEGIN TO LIVE LIKE A

Chinese calendar terrible misfor-
tune would befaIl his household.
Accordingly, he decided that he
would outwit fate. as 1t were. and
so he took his entire family up
into the mountains for the day.
In order to pass the time he
amused himself and his children
flying kites. When he returned
to his home he found that his
household goods and his animals
had been burned.
1t is generally believed, how.
ever. that the kites, flying into
the air, carry with them all the
evils that the fates have In store
for the individuals who own those
Kites. And when the strings that
confine them to earth are cut
they win fly off into eternity with
the evil on their wings.
