HAY DIET HINTS

What is Dr. Hay's explanation of discase?

Dr. Hay contends that all disease Ja one thing: namely "a lowering of function" expressed in various ways. The "lowering of function” is merely a reaction of the body to some foreign condition; pt least foreign to * healthy body.

*

What is the effect of disregarding the body's need of food in the pro- portion of 80 per cent, alkaline and 20 per cent, acid-forming foods?

It this proportion is broken up elber by deficiency in the alkaline forming foods or by excess of acid forming foods a state which is ab- normal is set up. The body will be able to function as intended and its

powers of resistance will be weak-

ened.

Are grilled tomatoes allowed OIL fried bread?

When tomatoes are hented they bo- come neki. Brend contains starch and is therefore a carbohydrate. Car- bohydrates require an alkaline con- dition for their digestion. The eld of cooked tomatoes would interfere with this.

la coconut milk allowed in the Hay Diet?

Nuts are allowed with all foods according to lay Diet rules and thus there is no reason why coconut milk should not combine with all foods in the same way. 'The "Arst" milk is very rich and so should not be taken. In large quantities at any time.

Granny Does

"TH

THE family was absolutely all right under Granny's supervision, and she loves to come and boss the show a bit.”

So writes a young mother after

a week away from home,

She goes on to say that her mother loves to recapture the feel- ing that she is in the middle of things as she was when her hus- band was alive and she had her own family around her Above all she likes to feel she is wanted.

She is Lonely

But there are other young mothers who complain that Granny 1s"LET. ribly Interfering." We know, too, that there is an old saying that, however strict a woman is with her own brood, she always spoils the grandchildren.

There have been cares where a mother living too near has made it very difficult for her daughter to bring up her children as she thinks best.

Naturally Granny forks on her daughter stli na'n child, even though she has children of her own, and can never quite belleve that she can be trusted alone. That sometimes leads to complications.

But there's Granny's point of view. 100. There are thines when a young mother can be too jealous of her post- tion, and she can wound her mother deeply.

Who's Seen My Yardstick?

IF you do any dressmaking at home

you have a yardstick. And If you are a normal woman owner of a yard- stick... you have a problem!

Where do you keep the cumbersome thing when not in use,

Dozens of good domestic yardsticks Je in pinces where they have no right ta bo in long dressing - tablo drawers, on tops of wardrobes, stand- ing up in clothes cupboards, and even pushed behind aldeboards and pinnoS.

You Can Make This

Or, if you like, you can make one yourself from a stalp of Lancaster cloth and white tape för binding. Make one side about two inches shorter than the stick so that you can pull it out easily. The back part should be two inches longer than the yard. In these extra inches cut and bind a round hole that will slip over a peg.
