Now if you persist in such vio­lations, nature will iH«sent a bill, for she charges you for every ooe of her laws you' violate.

properly cooked. Always wash your hands before eating. This is of great importance, yet is one of the most neglected health rules I kndw of and is the direct cause of transmitt ing various in­fections, particularly in children.

Eat more plain food. Fancy, h i ^ i l y spieed dishes will socmer or later affect ihs stomach. Chew your food well—don't bolt rt as if you were taking a chunk of raw liver! If your teeth are so bad you can't_cbew, go i o a. dentast 'without delay. You can't have bad teeth and expect to keep in good health. It will be much cheaper to pay your d« l -t i s t now, than your doctor later!

Drink plenty of water. Few peoide drink enough water. Tea, coffee or milk do not take the place of pure water. Drink a glass just b e l e r e - g o i n g - t o bed anV! imothftr thft flrwt thing after you get up. Make this a fixed rule.

Common sense is the best thing to go by. WheiT the system needb food, the stom­ach will let you know in lan­guage you cannot possibly mis­understand. When it don't want it, there is a raason, so let it atone until it rings the bdl . Your stomach is neither a store-1 house nor a garbage can!

A normal adult needs at least eight hours sleep out of the twenty-four." See that you get ^ it. Children- and old people re-' quire more.

Do everything in moderation and if you don't, you are sure to ..'et a bill sooner or later and na-• ire will collect it just as sure as .ite. So don't trv to fcxA your­

self about that little fact.

Many had come from a dis­tance. A large number were from the Carolinaa. A number were blind,-and there were tuber­cular patients and at leaat one with cancer.

Helpless invalids were made 'comfortable on improvised cots and seats in the front pews. As at St. Paul's on the first day of the mission, the service was one of the utmost solemnity.

Mr. Hickson went quietly from patient to parent, his lips mov­ing in prayer as he laid his hands on the snfierers. Serene, unhur­ried an? unperturbed by "any In-ci<teit connected with the imme-dHite business in hand of send-

God as his servuits.

There were diseases of the soul as well as of the body he de­clared, to which people were in bondage as much as to diseases of the body. Envy, hatred, im­purity and selfishness he declar­ed to be diseases of the soul. .

Doctors were doing noble work, said Mr. HickMn, and th y and what they were doing for suffeiing humanity, was in no wise to be discredited.

"God ci'eated doctors," he said. "We don't want to be wiser than God. ^ We work with them."

He emphasized the need of p n ^ r preparatioh of the sick for Divine healing. He reiter­ated his former statements that the thought of the personality of the human ag«icy should not en­ter inCb this preparation. He, himself, he J«clared was only the instrument of the Lord, the channel of His healing.

A touching feature of the con­clusion of his two days' mission was that Mr. Hickson himself af­ter giving each of the clerg3rmen who had been assisting hun, in­cluding Bishop Darst, his heal­ing touch and intercessory pray­er, turned to Dr. Gravatt and kndt for the blessing of tiae rec-tw of Holy Trinity.

Mo.si every fat man wants to be thinner and the thin man thinks nature has grossly cheat­ed him by not making him fat.' But why be fat if you can live Just as lonjf and not have to car-j ry the extra weight. Taking: it! in a broad way, we might think that a man's weight ^would de­pend more or less upon the size of his salary, but the thinnest man I ever knew was drawing $G5,000 per year! It is just poa-aibl« that he got thin trying io\ draw that salary, but I knew an­other man who was Admiral of a canal boat, and weighed 463 pounds. He only got | 10 p«-week, but I suppose he got fat in watching the mule draw it—the canal boat, I mean.

But the point we are trying to get at is, when is a man thin? As Shakespeare would say,"That is the question." Can a man be thin and at the same time be healthy and normal. He can, but aU will depend upon who is the judge of his state of thinness!

What one man would call thin, another would describe as beitlg wiry and athletic, so there you are. Therefore, up to tertain limits, either so called fatness or thinness is piirely a matter of in­dividual opinion, and that will vsiry mucliUffcording to the^fat-ness or thinness of the person expressing it. If he is an ene­my, he will call him "thin as a rail" or "fat. as a hog/' as the case may be.

A person (jan be slim, yet not actually thin. Such a condition is perfectly normal. All people are not built alike. The mSn-ba^ of some families have Vein of slim build for generations past, and doubtless will continue sp u^il the mixing of blo^d will caiige^a-gradual chanjge. - H ^ o u eonsider-youraelf iit>-nonafllly>fat or thin, have your doctor make a careful examina-

tion to determine the cause. A person's weight, it must be

rpmoTTjhprPij, \fi, tn ft grpjtt extent controlled by his environment, kind M work,: gen««l mod^ef living and state of mind. Of course any organic trouble or functional disorder may mani­fest itself by . affecting the weight. Bad teeth are a very commori cause of underweight. Proper mastication of food is prevented and nutrition suffers. The various groups of bacteria associated with bad teeth, ulcer ated gums and abscesses at the tips of the roots, are carried into the stomach with the food^id^ -frequently cause indigestiiHi or chronic gastritis—a fonni9l self poisoning.

There are so many serious troubles caused either directly or indirectly by bad teeth, that cannot impress too strongly upon my readers the great importance of having a dentist frequently in­spect them for defects.

Eye strain is another frequent cause of underweight, as it very often affects the entire nervous system and sets up all sorts of obscure disorders. If you have frequent headaches, are nervous and feel gene i^y aQ out of sorts, better have your eyes examined

And then there is worry, yes, just aimijle worry—will take the fat off of you and keep jt off about as effectively as any one thing I know of, outside of some serious disease.

If you are just ^hn and it is natural to you, don't worry, but if you are actually thin, then there is a reason, ask your ddcldr what it is.—Akx. Gazette^-
