suits in Disagreement.
NEW DELHI, India, February 81 Up.
-Mahatma Gandhi and the Viceroy of
India, Lord Irwin, had a long confer
ence today and after its conclusion it
was understood they had failed TO agree
on a vital point of the pending peace
negotiations.
After the meeting Gandhi said the
talks might be resumed" This was
taken to mean that it would be again
necessary to refer the subject matter
Of the conversation TO the British Gov
eminent for a decision.
The Mahatma let 1t be known that
he would stay in New Delhi, at least
FOR few days. He called a meeting of
the Nationalist Congress Working Com
mittee for tonight.

Your Health
and Diet
By DR.. Logan Clendening

BY extras we mean salt,
sugar, salad dressings (oils),
candy, pastries, desserts, bread,
cereals, gravieS, etc.
Salt is the only necessity in
the list. There are about three
ounces Of salt (sodium chloride
ordinary table salt) in the
body, and the amount Of about
a half a teaspoonful Of this is
cast off daily in the urine and
sweat. This must be replaced.
Compared to the amount Of
salt we deliberately add to our
food from the salt shaker, the
amount in our food is negligible.
Particularly in vegetables. Ami
mails who live on an exclusively
vegetable diet have to wander
to salt hcks periodically, in the
natural state; the dairy farmer
supplies this necessity for his
herds.
Give Great Energy
OF the other extras, all are
distinguished by furnishing a
large amount Of energy, either
in the form Of starch, sugar or
fat. None Of them are absolute
necessities, but are toothsome
and agreeable ways Of adding
fuel value to, the diet. If you
are overweight or compelled to
be lazy, better let them alone.
But if you are going to play
baseball or are just recovering
from an operation, or are skin
and bones, they are good for
you.
To sum up our conclusions
from our weeks study Of the
balanced diet:
Man is designed, both from
the standpoint Of his digestion
and his nutrition, for a mixed
diet. He is not an herbivore
like the COW, nor a carn1Vore
like the dog.
All Food Essential
Therefore all food products
have a place in his diet. The
proportions Of these change
from infancy to old age, but all
have a place. No single article
Of diet will supply all bis needs.
Every common article Of diet
milk, eggs, butter, bread, vege-
tables, fruits, meat, salt, sugar,
cereals, oils and fatS-have their
peculiar advantages in a mixed
diet and their peculiar disad-
vantages as an exclusive diet.
Milk is the foundation Of
youth-the preserver Of life
the most nearly perfect food.
After infancy because Of its
lack Of bulk, and its thinness,
it must be IN accessory.
Eggs are concentrated nour-
iShment.
Vegetables have the advan-
tages Of bulk, starch content,
mineral content and vitaminS.
Fruits have bulk, high energy
value in their sugar and vita

tend to all that"
In The Car
Talking, she half led Fanchon
out through the station and
the crowds to the big parked
car. The chauffeur Jumped
down from his seat, touched his
cap. took the pitiful little Dor.
rowed suitcase and opened the
door. Mechanically, Fanchon
climbed In.
It was early evening. Fifth
Avenue was at it's best and
lovelieSt under the slanting
golden light. The car moved
ahead smoothly, powerfully. A
luxurious car, beautifully fitted.
Mrs. CarStairS still kept Fan
chon's hand in hers. Fanchon,
understanding nothing, stlll not
comprehending the older wo-
mans curious greeting, felt the
blood come back to her cheeks
and her cold hands, in a great
wave Of relief. The tears, which
had been so foreign to her ma.
ture until the last desperate
days on the Coast, rose easily
in reaction to her magnificent,
strange eyes. She tried to
smile at Mrs. CarStairS, realiz-
ing that, after all, no real dan
ger threatened her as yet, but
her soft red mouth shock. Mrs.
Carstairs pressed the hand she
held.

again, apologetically. "But

face clouded, "Oh, Evelyn" she
cried, suddenly, have you for

"Of course" said Fanchon,
moved by the appeal in the blue
eyes.

fort, ''you are like your fathers

golden skin was gray with

faced that, could have rendered
something in return, for a meas

to encounter this warmth Of
seeking, asking wistful affec-'

could endure; it was something
she had so longed for since
her fathers death; something
she had longed for all her life
as well, Dear as her father
had been to her, she had al

secretly Of a gracious, beautiful

here was such a woman, the
perfect answer to those child

An Authority on Problems Of
Love and Marriage.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I should like to ask you q
question. My son is 20 years
old and has two more years be-
fore finishing college. He Is
going with a Gentle girl and we
are Jewish. I am quite aston
ished as I had always wished
my daughter and son to marry
in our own religion. I told my
son he should go with many
other girls, that he is young
yet. He said he will not go with
any but this Gentle. Now comes
the question. I do not know
how to act. He wants to bring
her to the house and I have
said for his sake that he may
do so. But it is against my
feelings. What shall I do2
r. w.
Questions of religion are bet
ter left to ones own conscience
and it is impossible for me to
decide such matters. At the
same time, you must know from
experience that there is no more
certain way Of hurrying a mar
riage than by opposing it. You
are very wise to agree to receive
the young lady, because that
does away with the idea that
you are being unfriendly toward
her.
Do not, whatever happens,
lose the affection of your son.
