A molecule can be pictured as =

writes DR.. Thomas M. Beck In the
Chicago Tribune. In a gas the mol
ecules are drifting around in space
at relatively great distances from
each other. The molecules of
liquid lie closely packed and move
in completely disorderly arrange
ment. In a crystalline solid they
likewise are closely packed, but
in geometric arrangement. They
do not move, only vibrate. The
higher the temperature the faster
molecule moves; or, at equal tenn
peratures, light molecules travel
faster than heavy ones. The aver

Safe Method OF Reducing.


There are great many individu.
ais who, while not really fat, know
that they are carrying ten to fifteen
more pounds than they should tc
have comfort and proper working
ability. They naturally dislike the
idea Of going on any one of the
special diets, but would be willing
to follow in general way system
that would take off the surplus
weight over period of six months
to year.
Sometimes it is enough for them
to know what classes of foods tc
avoid and what classes to eat. Thus
cutting down on highly nutritious OF
high caloric foods-sugar, potatoes
bread, butter, cream. egg-yolls--
and increasing the less nutritious or
low caloric foods-cabbage, canli.
flower, SKINNED milk, fresh fruits,
and green vegetables--is all that
is needed to bring about the re-
CURED reduction in weight.
As far as meat, fish. eggs (pro-
teins) are concerned at least one
helping of meat or fish should be
eaten daily to maintain the ''struc-
turc" OF the body. Thus the reducing
diet should include lean meat, eggs
and soft cheeses (which supply pro-
TEN and are at the same time no,
too high in fuel value) and small
amounts of few carbohydrate or
starch foods such as bread, pota-
toes and very simple desserts.
Fats should be almost entirely
avoided because their fuel or food
value is more than twice that OF
protein or starch foods.
However, even il fats an a
starches are cut down and fruits
and leafy vegetables increased, the
proteins (meat, eggs. fish) must be
increased not only for their "stay-
ing power, and for maintaining
body structure but also because pro-
tein foods make a fast burning
fire in the system, greatly increas-
ing the heat. and burning up sur
plus tissue such as fat. Hence a
person would lose weight faster on
a diet containing an insufficient
amount of food but with a greater
amount OF proteins in proportion to
fats and starches because the meat
and eggs burn" more fiercely.
This doesn't mean that great
amount of extra meat or eggs
should be eaten because many over
weights may have the early symp-
toms OF high blood pressure or kid
ney conditions.
Research physicians doing special
work on obesity or overweight,
while advising almost a complete
avoidance OF fat foods, advise that
some starch foods be eaten ev.
cry day.
