Have they ever considered the fact that many of them would be much easier on the eyes if they had received | the best dietetic and cultural care when they were children? Any disease if long continued will result in ugliness. Any case of long continued malnutrition, improperly balanced feedings, or gluttony will destroy the proportions of our figures that are supposed to be modeled after the image of God. If one were describing the symp- toms of ugliness, he would be de- scribing disease symptoms as well. Tt would be impossible to imagine Hercules afflicted with tuberculosis, Diana with gout, Appollo with bil- jousness, or Juno wih mucous colitis. Just imagine Robin Hood running off with his fair maid, Maron, if she had weighed two hundred and sixty-five pounds! The alterations produced by disease are so pronounced that any compe- tent diagnostician can distinguish a healthy person from a sick one simply by the general appearance. In many cases, it is even possible to recognize the principle disease with just a gen- eral inspection. I know that many of the conditions under which we live are not condu- cive to beauty. One who sits at a desk all day certainly has some dis- advantage physically compared with the legendary golden age when all that was necessary was playing leap frog under the trees from which lus- .|cious and nourishing fruits fell just when one was ready to eat them.

He spoke now. “As you know, Mr. Sharp, I've never met Mrs, Hogarth.” Dundee laughed. “Then you're not as curious as I am, Mr. Dowd.” The thin, commonplace man took off his glasses and polished the rimless oval lenses very deliber- ately. “I mind my own business,” he said quietly. ™~S “I've never met Mrs, Hogarth either, but after hearing t! all over again this evening, I ginning to get curious myself,” Bert Magnus admitted. “You're al- ways telling me to put some comedy relict into my scenarios, Cora.

This interferes with our health and beauty unless we take special care of our exercise and play. Each person should develop a hobby that will correct his one-sided work.

Q. writes am 16 years old and am troubled with weak ligaments. I have a knee which fre- quently slips out of joint, and I have this trouble with my elbows likewise. What, if anything. can be done to correct this condition! Would any special diet help these weak joints?” Answer: There is no special dict to correct weak joints. The best method of overcoming this condition is to take exercises so that you can strengthen the muscles. Not much can be done to strengthen the liga- ments except to strengthen the neighboring muscles and improve the circulation around the joints. You must be careful not to take sudden exercises, and avoid displacing, as every displacement weakens the liga- ments still more. m: K.,H.

Is there any danger of this dust getting into the lungs?
