"One should a to live, not ]irt►

So,. saki Molloy more than 300
years .ago, and hill advice applies
even more strongly in today's gen-
erraily affluent society, '
Trouble Is, the lint option --
eating to live -s is much easier said
than done. Even those who eat in,
moderation often manage to eat the
wrong foods, or 'the wrong mill of
nutrients. The secret for enjoy-
went, health, weight control. -- ill
balanced diet.
of And a balanced diet doesn't
mean an unbalanced budget. So-
called "junk" foods - like candy
and cookies, soft drinks, some
cereals, and gelatin desserts, which

Nutritionists lay that you need
something from each of five main
categories of this "rear food every

ask, eggs or cheese',
Pepen ' g oo your age and the
amount Physical activity you en-
gage in, the daily intake of these
nutrients will vary. In general, older
people need less food because
they're less active.
A useful guide to daily intake
requirements appears in Easy Eat-

perhaps and quote the late W. C.
Fields who used to advise us that
"If at first you don't succeed, try

There's no use being a fool about

But how do you get advice like
that across to a dog?
THE ENERGY
WASTE WATCHER
The insidious thing is that you
can see wasted food but you
can't see wasted energy. Kilowatt
hours are frittered away quietly
and invisibly leaving behind only
a few dollar figures on your elec-
tric bill that could be lower.
Take the refrigerator and
freezer, for example. Both oper-
ate 12 to 14 hours a day, con-
stantly drawing electrical energy.
Given proper care and use, how-
ever, they can be major energy
savers.
First of all, buy carefully and
choose the size that suits your
needs. A refrigerator or freezer
will operate more economically
when filled to capacity but not
crammed with food.
When having the refrigerator in-
stalled, keep in mind that it will
use less energy if located away
from heating equipment and
direct sunlight. Also, allow
enough space for air to circulate
around the unit.
It's a good idea to make sure the
appliance is not set to run colder
than necessary. The manufac-
turer's manual will recommend
the proper setting.
By the way, frost -free refrigera-
tors are great savers of your
energy, but not of electricity. A
standard 14 -cubic -foot refrlgera-
tor -freezer uses about 950 kilo-
watt hours (kWh) of electricity
a year. A frost -free model of the
same size uses about 1,500 kWh.
That's about 50 per cent more
energy per year for this feature.
A frost -free refrigerator does re-
quire attention to make sure it's
not draining power unneces-
sarily. A blocked condensate
