“I’ll have a fortune, for 1’11 plant it right

Or. Banting on Obesity—Critical Hours iw
the Sick Room—One Cure for Earache.
Dr. Banting gives, in Popular Science
News, directions for tho treatment, without
medicine, of obesity* of which the following
are in substance the principal points: People
inclined to corpulence must diminish th®
quantity of their food. They must also take
tbe sort of food that will produce the least
amount of fat, but will give strength; they
should therefore take more of nitrogenous
and less of carbonaceous food. Of beet, veal,
mutton, lamb and pork, the first is the least
and the last the most heat producing. Pork,
therefore, should not be eaten. White bread
makes heat and fat; rye is loss heating; oat
meal is good for strength aud is very suitable;
rice makes fat; potatoes contain a great deal
of starch and are not to be eaten; milk is too
fattening; fruits may be eaten; coffee and
tea can lie taken, but without milk or sugar.
Water must bo taken very sparingly—one
glassful in twenty-four hours, if possible.
Exerciso must not be violent, as that pro
duces an appetite; yet, if it be walking, if
perspiration is produced to a slight degree, it
is an advantage.
hours’ sleep is
enough as a rule, and seven will be generally
sufficient.
As there are more thin people in tho world
than fat people, Dr. Banting adds a word of
advice to tho former. They must sleep all
they can: keep early hours for retiring; lie
down in the middle of the day; drink a great
deal of water; oat heartily, especially of far
inaceous food; take plenty of excercise, but
in moderation. Tbe value of cheerfulness is
emphasized. Follow the old adage, “Laugh
and grow fat.”
Tho subject of purity and bealthfulneea of
milk and its products has received much at
tention from medical and sanitary authorities
during the past year, and some very remark
able results of investigations are now being
made public. A lecture on the etiology of
scarlet fever was recently delivered by Dr.
E. Klein, F.C. S., before the Royal institu
tion in London The princi|»al theme of tho
paper was the relation of scarlet fever to
milk supply. The possibility of the dissemina
tion, and even origin, of the disease from this
source was considered at length. Recorded
cases are quoted to prove its possibility. Tho
lecturer treats it as a certainty that milk has
thus caused the spread of scarlet fever. Ex
periments by N. Galthier, a French scientist,
have been published. These were directed to
tubercular sickness. Dairy produce from
cows affected with tubercular disease was the
subject ot the investigations. Professor Gal
thier found that such articles of diet could
communicate phthisis or consumption to
poultry and swine, and could become thus
directly or indirectly a serious menace to man.
Within the last few years a number of out
breaks of disease have been traced with great
certainty to dairies as tbe*center of contagion.
So well proved have these cases seemed, that
they have originated special popular names
