One Day In Ten Liquid Day
Women and girls should realise that more harm comes from cut- ng when they are fatigued than from not eating at all. One phy sician gives this common senfe advice to us:

You should accept eating as you accept doing your own particular work. It should be done artistically, thor- oughly and willingly."
