The subject last night was "Foods
for the Fat and Thin.." He referred to
jiiany people in his last campaign that
'lie had reduced 20 to 30 pounds and
others who had gained 10 to 15
pounds.
He said the two great causes were
indigestion and constipation, and he
urgued that to relieve these conditions
the first step was to start going with
out your breakfast. "Run when you see
n sugar barrel and keep right on run
ning when you coma to the candy shop,
and run a little faster when you see
white bread staring you in the face,"
he said. "Drink your buttermilk, a
i-ouple of glasses a day, and eat a
couple of dates with it. Substitute
vegetables for meat." He quoted Gen
eral Booth, who said that he had never
met a vegetarian who was a drunkard,
and Wesley, who said that when he
pave up meat and wine all physical
ills took their departure.
In the afternoon, on "Foods for the
Child," he pleaded with the mother to
keep raisins on the table all the time
(instead of the top shelf), where the
child could help itself.
The subject tonight at 8 o'clock. Is
