The sin of gluttony is common
and therefore much condoned,
but like every other violation of
Nature's laws has a penalty.
Fat inefficiency, sluggish men-
ta itv. the reddened nose, the
pimpled face, certain of the
chronic skin eruptions, and much
fatigue and nervousness are due
to the abuse of the digestive ap
paratus. Rich, indigestible foods
in large quantities, hiphly sea
soned to stimulate the jaded
palite, are forced into a body al
ready rebellious from repletion.
Exercise is largely limited to
walking to and from the table
and bodily deterioration proceeds
rapidly. Many an overfed dys
peptic, suddenly dragged by the
stern hand of circumstances from
a life of physical ease and plen
ty, and forced to worlf'out of
doors suddenly discovered that
his semi-invalidism has gone,
that a chronic skin derangement
of many years standing has dis
appeared and that a new vigor
and zest of life has been given
him. - U. S. Health Service.
