A two-year-old child named Stanley Bert Turner, who died from ptomaine poisoning recently, was stated at the inquest at Somersham, Hunts, to have had the following meals: Breakfast: Fried egg. Dinner: Yorkshire pudding. Tea: Bread and butter and tea. Supper: Warm milk and cheese. Extra supper: Roast pork and beer. The jury expressed the opinion that the feeding had been indiscreet, which was certainly a moderate summing up of the facts. Successful results have been obtained by a German doctor in reducing the weight of his over-corpulent patients by the simple expedient of reducing the amount of food taken after midday ,thus giving the body less nourishment at night to build fat out of. The patient eats until satisfied at breakfast and noonday dinner, but after this takes only a little coffee, or tea, and one small sandwich for tea or supper. Exercise and work during the afternoon provide for utilisation of the food taken up ftt noon. All the patients thus dieted lost one or two pounds a week, and all thrived. TAN-OL, the polish that lasts. Especially good for tan footwear, leather goods, 'inoleums, floorcloths, and furniture. In tins, liquid Is, paste 6d.
