How much can one eat when on a reducing died? M." One rounding tablespoonful of mayonnaise made with vegetable oil approximates 100 calories. You can't have many tablespoon tuls, you see, for it will limit the other needed foods. Tou can make a mayonnaise of mineral oil by the same recipe that you use for the ordinary ma yonnaise, and while it has the yolk of an egg in it, the propor tion4een ordinary serving is so small that it can be ignored. How. ever, too much of this mineral oil mayonnaise should not be taken. as mineral on in excessive amounts has disagreeable cnarac teristics. as those who have taken It in excessive amounts have found out. Animal experiments have shown that It may also leech some of the fat soluable vitamin A from the foods. It Is wise for the reducer to have some fat -in the reducing diet, but it would be better to have 100 calories of butter or cream than the vegetable oils, for; the former have vitamin A. which the vegetable oils do not have.

Every one has had the experi ence of the arms and legs "going to sleep" when some position is assumed which cuts off the cir culation. It may be possible that you have a slight constriction of the blood vessels due to. hardening of khe arteries. Mrs. H. This may be due to some slight chronic tox. emla from some cause. Toxemia literally means poison in the Mood and occurs when there is absorption from some poison such as would come from the germs in Infected tonsils - or bad teeth or other infeced spots, and it may oc cur from prolonged wrong diet Look to your hygienic program and see that you get enough sleep and rest, fresh air, correct diet, and have some deep massage or some exercises which will stlmu late the circulation.

In his lecture Sunday night before an audience which filled the large Evangelistic tabernacle. "Mussolini by his Indefinable will power, has forced himself to the front, bringing with him fas clam, of which he is the originator and dictator. This distinguished Italian, endowed with glgaatlc en ergy, impelled by a master Ifraln. has for his goal the resurrection of the old Roman empire; and the things in the little country which manner In which he is doing one time was the center of Europ ean power. Is causing no little stir. Political, commercial and religious readers throughout the world are shocked with the audacity of this astute dictator. "Mussolini continues as he be gan. He speaks with authority anJ the fear to reseat him is national. He has a greater hold upon Italy today than Napoleon ever had up on France. A government by the people seems to have no place in Mussolini's program. Many of the laws of the past are only a scrap of paper in his hands. There seems to be no stone unturned in the path of Mussolini, -to strengthen his government, especially in fi nance, upon which hangs the des tiny of nis regime. This indlvldul istic regime moves on with little Interruption, but if history is a rgood guide, mushroom govern ments go down about as quick as they rise. "With Italy practically under the control of Mussolini, and with a sufficient number of nations tending him their friendship, the restoration of the old Roman em pire is far from being an impos sibility. The territory which com prised the old Roman empire, which territory Mussolini seeks to redeem first, by federation, are Italy. Switzerland, Portugal. Span, Belgium, France, Holland, Tur key. Greece Armenia, Persia, Pal estine. Arabia, Egypt, the north coast of Africa, tbe islands in the Mediterranean sea, England. Wales and much of central Eur ope. The sweeping Influence of MuMoIlntand the despotism which he is building up is as certain for war as time rolls on. "Our most reliable prophetic scholars believe tbe coming Roman empler will swallow up all eccle siastical power, for according to Revelations the thirteenth chap ter, the beast, who is the Anti Christ, is not only the political but the religious dictator, to whom ab-. solute worship and tribute Is giv, en. The return of the ten kings referred to in the Holy Scrptures is inevitable and the time Is rap- Idly approaching for such a mon archy, which will culminate into' the greatest catastrophy man has, ever known." When a candidate thinks he has everything sewed up, another can didale may just be going on a rip and tear ' campaign. Charlotte News.
