A DIET for obesity should con-
tain 1900 calories day, distributed
with IS grams of protein, 60 grams
of fat, 13O grams of carbohydrate,
and the essential minerals and
vitamins.
The diet must be kept up for some
time. Weight loss on a diet goes by
spurts because while there is actual
loss of flesh this is masked by water
retention. Three weeks to month
after going on a diet the body

Curing "Diseose" "
Of Overweight

this is water loss. Only about a third
of pound is actual flesh. The water
loss is regained within few hours.
A proper diet for obesity must be
balanced. 1t would require one gram
of protein per kilogram of ideal
body weight, enough calcium and
phosphorus, a proper ratio between
carbohydrate and fat so that -aci-
dosis is prevented, and all the essen
tial vitamins. 1900 calories are pro-
vided with IS grams of protein, 60
grams of fat and 130 grams Of car
bohydrate. Such diet, if scrupu-
lously followed, always causes an
obese person to lose weight, and food
deficiency symptoms have never
been observed after its use.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS


E. B.: "Dear Doctor: I am a farm
boy 10 years old. I am 6 feet 2
inches tall and weigh 155 pounds,
which isn't enough. When doing
work / always become tired and
logey. My complexion isn't very
good. l have few pimples, an oily
skin and enlarged pores, a few
freckles across the front of my face
and nose and pimples. What ] need
to do is TO gain more pounds of flesh,
get more poppy and get a clear
complexion"
Answer-You sound to me like .
young Abraham Lincoln, and /
wouldn't worry too much if l were
you. People with your build at the
age Of 10 are likely to have fatigue
and a bad complexion. / think it
would be good idea to have an
x-ray of the chest to be sure there
is no tuberculosis. If there is none,
then eat full diet, including plenty
of fresh meat-don't diet on ac-
count Of your complexion-and rest
when you are tired and quit worry
ing. Time is capable of curing all
your worries.

younger men.
All OF this should be enough to
convince a young girl that ii is
folly to marry an old man. but LET
me add the most important part
Of the argument. That part is
sex, love and the natural desire
for affection. II Is such a vital
part OF marriage that II seems
laughable to pay attention to the
hypocrites who pretend TO be
shocked when It is mentioned.
Before / was married I dis
liked petting. kissing and familiar
ity In general. Now. after having
been married to a dignified man
who Is too, too reserved, must
admit / find myself DESTROYS OF
voluntary kisses and gestures Of
affection.
Young women who make the
mistake Of really considering mar
rage with older men should read
some scientific books on sex. They
will learn about the different
stages Of development in male and
female. In learning about this l
am sure young women will do what
nature intended - choose young
mates.

"Jones Speaking

Dear Mrs. Post: Does a man
always answer his office telephone
by saying Jones speaking" in
stead of calling himself Mr.. Jones !?
Does the age or the position of
Mr.. Jones affect the answer 20
this
Answer: The age and position
affects the situation very much.
An officer of the COMPANIES
pecially one who is of mature age
answers. This is Mr. Jones,
or perhaps MIR. Jones speaking
when he has occasion to answer
his own telephone. Usually, how
ever, his secretary answers first.
A young man in a subordinate
position would say Jones speak
ing" However, II there is doubt
about which to say, it is better
to err on the side of simplicity
and omit the mister"
Leaving Tips After a Visit
Dear Mrs. Post: Is a house
keeper in a private house ever
tipped after visiting in that house
What. about the chauffeur? And
how is something given to the
cook and the housemaid?
Answer: A real housekeeper is
not given a tip. She has a lady's
position in the house. You tip the
chauffeur only If he has been OF
personal service to you. That is
If he was sent a long distance to
meet you alone and then drove you
back again. you would give him a
dollar or two. But if he merely
drove your hostess to the station
to meet you, and again to the
station when you left, even though
he may have carried your bag the
short distance from the house to
the car. you would not think OF
tipping him. In a house where you
go often and where you are known
personally to the cook, you would
go out into the kitchen and say
Goodbye Selma" and give her
the tip. But in a house where
you are not so well known you
would tip the housemaid and then,
giving her a second amount, ask
her to give this for you to the
cook.
Grandmother Pays the Bill
Dear Mrs. Post: When the we'd
ding reception is at grandmother
house, who grandmother
or mother-and who sends out the
invitations Ny grandmother is
paying for everything but she does
not especially want to give that
impression.
Answer: II your grandmother
sends out the invitations. that OF
course does announce that she is
giving the reception. In this case
she should receive next to the door
and your mother stand beside her
II your parents send out the in
vitations In their names, it is taken
for granted that they are giving
the reception, and in this case
your mother. as hostess, would
stand nearest the door and your
grandmother on the far side of her.

And where are you going, Mrs.
Benthorne ?" She swung around,
surprised.
Il was just going upstairs for

There's no luggage or anything

Helen Benthorne stared about
her. While Dawson had been
somewhat careful, however thor
ough, in his first search of her
room he had spared nothing in his

to replace the mattress on the bed,
her closet door stood open and the
cushions of her chairs had been
pulled out, pounded and awk-
wardly replaced. When they en-
tered, Dawson had been carefully
tapping the walls.

"Cat?" she queried. what cat ?"

Flynn appeared at the doorway.
In his arms he struggled to hold
a splitting, biting, scratching cat.
Long scratches on his hands
showed that the cat had not been
captured without something of

gladly.

across the room to Helen Ben
