Perhaps he had not faced the facts 1 his own mind. but his brain was a lawyer's brain and worked a inzly. Subconsciously, perhap: not entirely so, he had planned to draw her into his toils. He had money and she was 1ll and penniless. 1f he coula not make her love him for him- seli—perhaps because she was grate ful to him she might grow to care. Under the huge north skylight Nan’s skin looked luminous. Her hair as a sweep of midnight blackness ecross her white forehead. She had the mouth of a child - wide and generous, over even, white tecth. As thev sat opposite each other he remembered Kissing that mouth &nd feeling it throb beneath his own. Her husband had died that night! What a brute he had been to force | ttentions upon her! Nan's slim hands, small and hel tess, were curled in her lap.

Yesterday T gave an account of the | | very astonishing condition of intense | mainutrition, resembling beri-beri, | which developed in 110 men of the | crew of the Kronprinz Wilhelm This was the German raider in the World War which was cut at sea for eight months and eight days. The diet of the men consisted almost entire- |1y of denatured and deminerali | foods, such as meat, white flour prod- ucts. refined sugar, condensed milk, tea, coffee and canned goods When 110 of the crew hecame to- |tally disabled and the ship's surgeon | was seriously alarmed, the vessel put in at Newport News, Va. Alfred W. McCann had succeeded in | zeting permission to doctor the men through proper diet. His definite sug- gestions were: “First, that 100 pounds of bran be | steeped 'in 200 pounds of water and |a large glass of the liquid fed to the | men each morning. “Second, that all kinds of available leaves and vegetables be scrubbed (not peeled), boiled and the liquid from the boiling fed to the men as soup in gen- erous quantities. “Third, that potatoes be scrubbed and peeled; the potatoes thrown away, the peelings boiled and liquid given 1o the men—a small glass once a day. Fourth, that the men should have milk, egg-yolk and fruit in prescribed quant also a small amount of whole-wheat bread, and after a week of above treatment, the vegetables of the soup. Under no circumstances should they have any acid-forming feod.” This treatment was begun on April 16, five days after the vessel docked. | Medical advice and medicine had not {in these five days benefitted the men, so that the ship’s surgeon agreed to | let Mr. McCann try his theory of alka- |line treatment. Up to April 16 the ;msn were still going down at the rate of two to five a day. On April 17, after one day of treat- ment, there were no new cases. Neither did any more develop later. In four days the men showed a | marked improvement. 1In 10 days, 47 were dismissed from the ship's hos- | pital. One of the men who had been completely paralyzed was able to stand without help.

No one can live in health without plenty of minerals and vitamins Experiments proving the relation of proper diet to health have been made time and time again on animals by reliable chemists. Here was a case of wrong diet unconsciously tried out on men. The reason people on land do not sicken so quickly or noticeably from a diet of denatured, demineralized foods, as the seamen did, is because practically everybody eats some min- erals in the form of celery ov lettuce |or an apple or an orange occasionally The small amount of mineral foods in the averaga diet wards off complete collapse, but health is far below par.
