for it many years earlier.
Live sensibly. Avoid overwork.
Regularly take moderate

enough, but not too much, of
the foods that build and maintain
health: milk; eggs; fruits and
vegetables; protein foods in
amounts just sufficient to meet
your requirements, SO that there
is no excess to be eliminated;
enough fuel foods to give you plen-
ty Of pep and power, but not in
amounts that will cause the
weight increase which many peo-
pie enormously believe inevitable
during the middle years.
Curb The Appetite for Rich Foods
1t is most important to avoid
overeating. For muscular activi-

ual often rides where a younger
person might walk or observes ac-

where he formerly played them

fuel needs. That is why every

A Irvine Holder. - A funnel
makes an excellent holder for a
ball of Irvine. Choose one large
enough to hold good-sized ball.
Put the end of the string through
the neck of the funnel.
Preserving Scrub Brushes
Never put scrubbing brushes
away until they have been thor
oughly washed, rinsed and shak-
en-, so that most of the moisture
has been removed.
Safety Measure. - To fill a
steaming teakettle place a small
funnel in the spout to prevent
burning your hands in taking off
the cover.
Cultivate Soft Voice.-A harsh
rasping voice, coming from a
pretty, well-groomed girl, is sure
to jolt the nerves of listeners. All
sensitive ears rebel against fiat,
dull voice or one that screeches
and shouts, and even more against
hardly audible, mumbling CONVEX
sation. Try to speak clearly and
distinctly, being particular about
the enunciation Of each syllable
and word.

To Destroy Smoke Odor.-Put a

Make the circles in pairs, as
shown, using No. 40 cotton thread
to sew them. Braid three cords
together and then sew the braided
strip around and around to make
the center of the mat. Sew a
row of the circles to the edge Of
this center part, then add another
braided row, being careful to
lease in" the inside edge just
enough to keep the mat fiat. Con-
tinue adding alternate rows of cir
cles and braiding until the mat is

To join the ends of the braided
rows, pull one end through the
braiding to the wrong side of the

importance OF Correct Diet
On the other hand, thousands of
Americans are unknowingly inn
pairing their efficiency and short
ening their lives through the mis-
use of food. They are eating the
wrong kind Of food-and what is
equally disastrous-they are over
eating! They do not seem to real
ize that eating too much does not
strengthen the body, but exhausts
it with the labOrs of digestion.
The surplus nourishment clogs the
system and may be indirectly re-
sp0nsible for headache, dyspep-
STA, biliousness and mental dullness.
Unless they change their habits
of eating, they will inevitably be-
come victims of their own indis-
cretions. For while it is folly to
neglect the health at any age, to
do so in middle life is to open
the way to an early death or to an
old age marred by sickness.

Hot foods are often more easily

full to begin a meal with hot broth,
in order to stimulate the secretion
of digestive fluids. A hot bever-
age may also be beneficial at bed
time.
1t is sometimes observed that
five or six small meals are more
easily digested than three large
ones. Each person should discov-
