Reducing Weight by Fasting Here is an actual diet for five days with which 434 pounds of weight was subtracted from 130 pounds. The woman was ten pound over weight for her height. She began to reduce by taking only a cup of coffee, sugar and cream in it, for breakfast. Having hardly any appetite for breakfast, this was no hardship: March 31—Welght at 11 a. m., 130 pounds.

The advice given some 2,000 years ago about fasting—not to disfigure your face when you fast, but to anoint it, is still good advice. It will avail you little to make your figure slim and your face flabby. That is one of the reasons your doctor will advise you against exercising on your days of greatest abstinence. must not let fatigue lines get into your face. Watch it, massage it, use plenty of cold cream, freshen it with a bit of ice and refresh yourself with a long slegp.—Margaretta Tuttle in Saturday Evening Post. > Advice to Lovelorn By Beatrice Fairfax Forgive and Forget. hardworking young 1 might hear of it my flance told me with my happiness, or should t the incident.

By GARRETT P, SERVISS. If, like many young men whose requests for advice I read, I stood in the morning of life, but possessed of the experience that, in its even- ing, illuminates, llke a sunset, the road behind, I think that I should choose agriculture for my vocation. I was born among farmers, and farm- ers who have never left their fields are among my most faithful and most admired friends. So I can speak vfl(h knowledge of farm life. There never has been a time in the history of our country when such speaking was more needed. One of the gravest errors that can enter the minds of young people is the widespread belief that farm life and farm work are incompatible with ‘|the best development of the social and intellectual qualities of men and women. If I did not know that that is untrue I should not have made such a statement as the one with which I began this writing. I would shrink®With horror from any occu- pation that shut me off from mental exercise, books, study of nature and of man, converse with intelligent enjoy- the farm does not of these things, while them it gives double ment. Life on shut off an; to some o value, Many of the most young farmers now are ‘“college men."" Their preliminary intellectual training equals that of lawyers, doc- tors, bankers, and merchants in the cities, and no more than these are they prevented by their work from pursuing the intellectual avocations which every well-endowed mind should have in addition to the voca- tion which is the main stem of life. It is through these avocations, these “side issues,” that half, and sometimes much more than half, of a man’s influence over his fellows, and upon his times, is exercised. The vocation is the trunk of the tree, which establishes it in its place and gives it individuality and stability; the avocations are the branches and the leaves, the flowers and fruits, which are useful and pleasant to others as well to itself. Now, for some concrete examples among farmers., 1 know a man, cighty-five years of age, whose formal education was obtained within the walls of a “district school,” who had never been off the farm, except for successful ¢ | occasional visits to towns and cities, life I think you ought to meet his| fm’;heu with complete forgivness. |the industry and frugality that are who, in his active years, exercised \ In Praise of Farming - + necessary in every occupation and that never fail to insure the acquire- ment of independence, and who now is one of the wisest men of my-ac- quaintance. He is abreat of the times. If he has not read novels, he has read news- papers and solid books. He has not neglected his winters, when farming is Qlay. Last summer I got from him'in a few vernacular sentences| sounder judgments on the European war and on our own political affairs than 1 have heard from anybody else. He has never had any vocation but that of a farmer, yet he is as truly in touch with all the world as the! best-informed city man that I know. Tf he had gone to the city when young he would have become a rich merchant or a successful lawyer, and would probably have died and been forgotten years ago. But on the farms people live longer and are re- membered longer. He. at lcast, bids fair for ten years yet to enjoy the aroma of the same dewy hayfields that he mowed when a boy, and to listen to the tinkling music of the same bob-o-links that then entranced his ears at sunrise. Has he lost anything by staying in the country among the green hills within sound of the romantic Scho- harie roaring down its rapids and scooping out cool deep pools for fish in the lee of its huge boulders? And now, a more modern instance, In that same land, which the red Iroquois loved for its beauty and its gifts, I know a young farmer, de- scended from a line of farmers, a university graduate, instilled with the knowledge of scientific agriculture, armed with the best and most in- genious implements and accessories that invention, aided by steam and electricity, can furnish, whose farm is as instructive and interesting as any shop or factory-or store in exist- ence, and where the visitor feels that, far from having left the world behind him and plunged into a side current of existence, he has rather found a cen- ter of life, society, and intelligence of the most refreshing and inspiring kind. His wife is also a college graduate, a woman of beauty, cultivation, re- fined tastes, wide reading. They have their automobiles, their telephones, their instrumental music,. their news- papers, books and social relations. To converse with them is a privilege and a pleasure, Their ¢hildren live in the free, fresh air, and are sent to schools where the “advantages,” I suspect, are greater than in the great city schools. They would not exchange farming for any vocation that you could offer them. Farming is working with na- ture.

If you are one of those foolish souls who look for trouble, make up your mind at once to right about face and look in the opposite direction from now on. It is a good thing to remember that almost everything reaches its greatest value in anticipation— pleasure and trouble alike, pain and delight as well. Worrying about things doesn’t make them one bit easier to bear— but instead weakens one's powers of endurance and means that a cer- tain amount of energy which ought to be expended in the actual meet- ing of a situation has been wasted in planning how to meet it. The troubles for which one looks very often fail to arrive—but in their stead come others which it takes all of one's strength to bear at the mo- ment of their coming. Isn't it tragically foolish then that one bit of strength and force should have been wasted in imagining how one would endure an unpleasant set of situations which one never had to endure? The girl who is doomed to spend her summer in the city is very likely to wonder with self pity how she is going to get through the long, hot, lonely days and the sultry uneventful evenings. Then perhaps a cold, rainy summer arrives where she has to endure an entirely differ- ent set of conditions from the one about which she was worrying. It is a good idea to remember that nothing is very serious—and that we give things a value and im- portance hopelessly beyond their ac- tual gravity. In looking back over the events of | last month who does not smile at something which then seemed wery agonizing? Perspective changes the appearance of things greatly. An emotional nature exaggerates things frightfully at the actual time of their happening. The poised and balanced nature doesn’t make the blunder of taking its own pleasures or its own sorrows too seriously. It knows that nothing lasts—but life is change and flux and alterations. Since this is so, why agonize over something todgy which doesn’t seem very important tomorrow, specially so since you only wear yourself out and leave yourself unable to contend with tomorrow’s situation? None of us has any more than just a certain amount of vital energy at a given moment. What's the use of borrowing tomorrow'’s store in order to meet today's events? What is the use of running to meet trouble half way when trouble would probably ar- rive soon enough without invitation or encouragement? Mercifully we all have it. within us to forget. Wounds heal. Mem- ory shrouds pain with a kindly mist of time. The sane person does not anticipate too much of joy or too much of sorrow. But he remebers both with a wise and tolerant smile rather than with feelings either of ecstacy or agony.
