HUNGER The old theory that “almost every Jone eats too much and would be bet- ter off with half the amount” is plain bunk, says Dr. Percy G. Stiles, ‘talking to Harvard Medical School. | Stiles says that if you're fat you j eat too much, and if you're thing you |do not eat enough, but that you jshould always satisfy your appe- tite. Very little danger of over-eating, when food is chewed thoroughly. Nature tells us, by hunger, when ‘we need food.

RAZORS Tariff duty on foreign-made razors | will be as high as 400 per cent, de+ erces the Senate. It will work out like this: A Ger- man firm will offer a razor, delivered to New York for $1. It will enter our country at $5, after adding $4 tariff duty. | ‘This shows how we Americans are being undersold by other courtries— in some lines.
