In respect of certain kinds of excess we certainly know that definite evils follow Excess of fat tends to be accumu lated and to shorten life, as the statistics of longevity and body weight clearly prove. Long continued excess of starches and sugars probably exhausts those pre- cious island-cells in the pancreas which produce insulin," and leads to diabetes Commonest, probably, of all, excess in proteins throws undue strain upon the organs of elunination, and lends to Bright's disease, and to degeneration of the solt and elastic walis of the arteries

Write for them! his country from starvation during the War, have been overwhelmingly proved to be right. As against the old view, these men stand for what they call "low protein." They have proved by long and manifold experiments-including most drastic experiments by Dr. Hindhede on himself and his devoted laboratory assist ants that adults can live and thrive and da hard work on a very small fraction of the protein which most people con- sume. Not only so, but such adults live longer, have less illness, work and play barder, and enjoy life accordingly. This is not a killjoy doctrine, nor the preach- ing of asceticism or self-denial for its] own sake, it is the very reversa.
OVER EATING ANIS CANCER The War imposed upon Denmark the necessity for a colossal experiment. Dr. Hindhede had been laughed at for many years, and bad hosts of enemies, as every champion of the anti-alcoholic cause must have. But in its sore need, the nation turned to him. On potatoes and whole cercals the people throve. Not only so but the death rate of the middle-aged, especially of men, fell fast and far, li in true that the saving of grain from the brewers and distiller's involved something very near total abstinence during this period, but we can prove that this im portant fact does not account for any thing like the whole of the results Lastly, note that, since the removal of the res trictions, and the return to the flesh pots of Denmark, the middle-aged death rate bas risen again to the old level
The evidence connecting over-eating, or certain kinds of over creating, with the in- crease of cancer in all modern prosperous nations, accumulates, and is now the sub- ject of a special statistical inquiry in Ban Francisco, for which, I am partly respon- Bible. It may or may not be the cast that over edting causes cancer by first causing constipation. We shall see.
Certainly the ivice of modern physio- logy and pathology to the middle-aged is clear. Eat less ment; ont vastly less meat eat a minimum of meat, or none at all Eat wholemeal bread, Ent fruit and fresh vegetables freely. Above all
