NOSTALGIA!

I could lock my door today
And close the t0tndotDS tight,
And say good-by to all OF this
And catch the train tonight.
I'd not miss the kitchen StoUe
Or the neighborS' knock,
Or the luSty cry OF children
Playing in the block
Far Gwuy from here, September
StirS upon the air,
And the broWntng le1UeS groD
restless
In the Village Square.
If lock my door today
And close my tDindotDS tight
And say good-by to all of this
And catch the train tonight.
If September find me
Fleeing this retreat,
Blame the riUer fog that creepS
Up the Village Street!

A morning newspaper pub
fishes a picture of Mrs. Ida
Cantor with this sub-captiOn:
"She wants Cantor, jr., says
Mrs. Eddie Cantor, as she re-
veals pre- p aratiOns for her
twelfth baby. II It isn't a boy
she'll demand q recount"
We feel very penitent about
that, for we are indirectly re-
sponSible. The other day we ran
a column in which we pushed
ahead the calendar to 1866 .
One of the lines read: Eddie Can
tor confirms the report that Ida
and he are preparing for their
twelfth baSsinet tenant-'1f it isn't
a boy, this time he insists. we're
through-poSitively!'"
o, listen, mister, we were fool
ing all the time, honest!
SUCCESS STORY-MAYBE!
This would be q swell story If
the girl was rejected by the pro-

kinS returns from England-and

It Is difficult to change dietary
habits. Until quite recently the
average man considered salad a
strictly feminine dish and vege-
tables something the children had
to eat. Advances in nutrition,
however, have changed food
habits considerably in the past
decade.
DR.. c. H. Sherman, of Columbia
University, one of the scientists
who have put nutrition on an au-
tnorltative basis, recently pre-
dlcted that seven years can be
added to the average life by a diet
adequate in calcium, protein and
vitaminS A and G. This optimum
diet not only increases the length
OF life but establishes a higher
level of vitality.
Experiments have shown that
an increase in the proportion of
protective foods acts to support
more years of positive health.
Since the eminent scientists
have proved beyond question that
the period of prime" may be ex-
tended by eating habits, we are
giving the protective foods q more
prominent place in the dietary.
Milk, eggs, fresh fruits and vege-
tables, whole grains are rightly
., called protective foods" because
they protect you from "the minor
Illnesses that detract from buoy
ant health.
Begin, with breakfast, to ap-
ply this food science to your three
meals. Use fresh fruit or fruit
Juice, a whole-grain cereal, an
egg, whole wheat toast and coffee
for a nutritionally perfect break
fast. If avoirdupois threatens,
use whole milk instead of cream
on the cereal, use less sugar and
restrict the toast to one slice and
the butter to one-half pat. There
by you limit the breakfast calories
to 435.
At luncheon take a vegetable
salad or bowl of vegetable soup
with your sandwich, and drink
milk or buttermilk instead of
coffee. Buttermilk, or SKINNED
milk, gives you everything that
whole milk gives except calorieS
and Vitamin A, and allows for
calories in butter, which also sup
plies Vitamin A.
> That luncheon will keep you
fit and it won't make you fat.
Dinner should include two
cooked vegetables in addition to
potatoes, a serving of meat,
salad, whole grain bread, butter
and a beverage. If your weight
is above normal, cut down on the
high-calorie desserts, restrict the
bread to three or four slices per
day and the butter to one and
one-half pats per day. Also, cut
all fat from the meat and use
less and less gravy.
The Protective Diet Chart"
now ready for distribution and
applicable to both man and
woman, classifies the food prin-
ciples and lists the foods to be
included daily in the menu.
Send for this chart, for an
optimum diet not only will add
seven years to your life, but it
will keep you feeling like seven
million dollars!

FORMER LOCAL BUSINESS MAN
 TAXES HIS LIFE:
N. G. Nelson Commits Sui eide Over r amily
 Worries, Belief

N. c. Nelson, 56, Juneau real es- tate owner, ended his life in the 2rage of his home in Berkeley, Tuesday, according to an Associated Press dispatch to The Empire re- ceived late yesterday afternoon. The police report at Berkeley said that Nelson ended his life by inhaling monoXide gas from the ex- haust of his automobile.
 Nelson's body was found by his widow, Mrs. Marie H. Nelson, who notified police officers. Accord ing to the Associated Press, Mrs. Nelson said she believed worry over family troubles to have been the motive for his act.
 For the last three years the Nell son family has lived in Berkeley to enable the four daughters of the family to attend school. Survivors
 Besides his wife, he is survived by his daughters, Grace, 18; Mae, 16; June, 6 and Helen, 3. Grace graduated with highest honors from the Juneau High school two years ago and is now in business school at Berkeley.
 Nels Gunner Nelson was born in Norway and in 1901 left his home in Oslo to come to America to seek his fortune. His first home in this country was in Index, Wash ington, where he worked as a shoe maker
