power is quality that improves
with exercise.
You can eat anything you like
while on the Fruit Regimes
long as it is a fruit or a vege-
table! Take nothing else for
granted II you want to lose. Bread,
butter, sugar. milk, eggs and
mayonnaise are all trimmings and
are taboo in. this regime.
Plan your diet from the follow.
ing list: Pineapple, apples, grape
fruit, oranges, canned apricots,
peaches, bananas, Strawberries,
fresh black cherries, grapes, pears,
melon. Do not include figs, dates,
raisins, prunes, avocado, or rhu-
barb. The low calorie vegetables
are: Asparagus, string beans, cab
bage, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumberS,
celery, carrots, sauerkraut, beets,
spinach, broccoli, and turnipS.
Vegetables to be avoided are pota-
toes, lima and navy beans, peas
and corn.
If you lose two pounds on two
days of the fruit regime, then go
back to the 1,00O-calorie balanced
menu for the remainder of the
week. But should you lose less
than two pounds, follow the regime
for longer than three consecutive
days. However, if you should fail
to lose weight, plan to adopt the
regime again next week.
One thing is certain-you can
lose! Don't for a second doubt
that you can reach the weight
that is normal for you. 1t is worth
the effort to win back those sup
pie lines that made you feel so
free and alive. Stick with your
program! This period decides
your whether you will con-
tinue to be overweight or achieve
slinness.

One Of the most joyous crea-
lures of all dogs is the irresistible,
buoyant and very affectionate
fox terrier.
When properly reared and
trained they are one Of the most
intelligent and courageous of all
breeds. Not only are they hard
to, beat from the standpoint Of
affection, but no other variety Of
small dog is q better protector.
There are two types of fox ter
'riers-the smooth and wire-haired,
and although it has been often
claimed by many that the wire
haired is identical with the
smooth variety, personally do
not believe this to be true. The
wire-haired more closely resembles
the original or true terrier type,
although sometimes in certain lit
tiers a smooth puppy may be
found. He Is perhaps a throw
back" in some direction from the
ancestral tree.
Although two distinct breeds for
all practical purposes, the stand
ard in theory Is almost precisely
the same for both with the excep-
ton of coat. However, I believe
o standard should be adopted sep
arately for the smoothS as it seems
to me, he has developed into a
distinctive type and therefore it
should not be permitted, as it is
to-day, for the short-haired pup in
litter Of wires to be registered
as a smooth.
The smooth is more popular in
England, whereas in America, the
wire-haired has captured the pub
lie fancy.
Either type make marvellous
watch dogs and are ideal compan-
ions for children.
Last but not least both types Of
This breed are the best vermin
chasers of dogdom. They are
