Sodium chloride or common salt
probably ranks first among all the
salts in the human body. both In
quantity and in its value in the
bodys nutrition. 1t Is, however. only
one of many salts and mineral sub.
stances important for proper func-
tioning OF the human System.
Salt ia not to be considered AZ
a mere seasoning, and the craving
for salt IL not at all like the crav-
ing for alcohol or tobacco. The
substance IL important In rela-
tionship to the constitution OF tina
body and deficiency manifests
itself by this craving.
Among savage tribes which live
mainly on vegetables, salt Is con-
sidered much a. Americans con-
slider sugar. Children suck sticks
Of salt as our children suck candy.
savages carry small pieces Of salt
in their pockets and offer it TO each
other to lick much as an American
ruralite will offer another q chew
Of tobacco. Actually in the past ma
tons fought wars for the posses,
sion Of sources of common salt.
A bulgarian physician. DIR.
Assem- Hadjioloff. In a considera-
ton Of the suajoct published BY
the American Dictetic Associa-
ton, indicates the way In which
the body constantly takes in salt
and loses 1t in its metabolisn,.
People who eat much meat can
do without added salt because
they obtain salt from the blood Of
the animals they eat. Meat con-
tains considerable quantities 81
sodium chloride. as do alse salt
water fish, but the fruits and
vegetables, and particularly fine
flours, contain very little salt.
The fact that certain quantity
Of salt is needed by the body
should not be taken as warrant
for oversaIting foods by those
who like 10 stimulate their sensa-
ton of taste. The human system
is built so that the amounts of
substances needed are definitely
controlled through automatic
regulating systems. Excess of any
substance upsets the balance and
throws an added burden on the
tissues.

These arc merely the highlights of

Most Of the hobs that receive at

The hair In the back falls to the
shoulders. while the front and sides
are left short, like last years bob.
For that terrible in-bctween time

Reddy Fox 10 not given to care
iessness. II he were, he wouldn't
have lived as long az he has. Little
people of the Green Forest and the
Green Meadows who are often care
less seldom live long. One OF the
very first things they learn when
they are little is that carelessness
is costly.
But there are times when even
the most careful forget, or become
absent-minded. and SO are careless
1t is so with Reddy Fox. Even Old
Granny Fox. with all her wisdom,
is careless once in a great while. l
doubt if there is any one who. at
some time or other. is not careless.
The storm that had driven Peter
Rabbit and little Mrs. Rabbit to the
shelter OF the old woodchuck hole
in the heart Of the dear Old Briar-
patch was over. All the little people
of the Green Forest and the Green
Meadows who were not sleeping the
winter months away were out look
ing for something to eat. They
must eat or they cannot live. So it
10 that there il always a great deal
Of activity right after big storms.
While the storms last the little peo-
pie can't eat. Therefore. Just as soon
as storm stops, they are out hunt
ing for food.
Reddy Fox was hungrier than

had been almost empty then. BY
time the storm was over it seemed
to him that the walls of his stom-
ach met. Just as soon as it stopped
showing Reddy was out hunting.
Now it happened that. unknown to
Farmer Browns Boy or to Farmer
Brown. a neighhor had visited the
Old Pasture late in the aftfrnooon
before the storm and there he had
set trap. steel trap, for Reddy
Fox. He had set that trap very art
fully, for he knew Just how difficult!
it is to fool Reddy Fox. He had set
it where he knew that Reddy Fox
frequently passed. He had studied
Rcddy and his ways. He knew that
Reddy, like most people, is more
or less Il creature Of habit. He knew
that no traps had been set in the
Old Pasture for long. long time.
