Kidney d'isea'se is extremely likely to follow such a condttionl of affairs, and it is not surprising to learn that the mortality from diseases of the heart and kidneys• among the .obese is twice as high GO in persons of normal weight. "To make matters worse, it'is notori- ous that such a dllseased heart rely give rises to very little in the way of symptoms, and nothing in the way local physical signs, and yet, as D WUteiams emphasizes, the fait man ma die the, next time he hurries to catdh a train; Obesity does not stop at pro- ducing disturbances oe the eleculetory apparatus. The respiratory system may suffer, and it is well known that ceetaun asthmatics may be greatly, re- ldeved by cutting down their weight, Various'troub'lesome forms of dyspef. sea may result from overweight, whil invasion of the liver increases such troubles, and the pancreas itself me suffer, ]leading probably to the fo�im o diabetes associated with obesity. In tertiigo (inflammation where two skin surfaces rnb), varicose veins, hernia, and even deafness', are some of the minor disiturbanees for whish obesity may be blamed, to say nothing of the increased gravity of acute diseases in tbee obese subject. "The cure of obesity le largely bound r up with the problem of its causation. Perhaps the most striking advance on the subject within recent times has been the proved complicity of the en- doorines (internal secretions.) leading to the broad classification of obesity into that caused by alimentary surfeit, and that ceased by underaetion of one or more endocrine glands. The fa- mous Daniel Lambert, who died at the age of forty weighing nearly fifty-three Mode, may safely be pert into the ]attetr category; but 11 Is admitted that most of the obesity commonly seen about middle age is due to overfeeding. 'To the scientist,' emote Vanes Thompson, 'th'ere is nothing so tragic on' earth as the sight of a fat man eating a potato.' This quotation from Dr. Williams's boost may give perhaps the key -note to the solution of the problem. It is not generally realized that It is the starchy carbohydrate footle rather than the .more quickly and readily metabolized fats which are responsible for much of the alimenttury type of obesity. "Meme rationed diet will go a long way to preventing this troublesome complaint, and in its cure this notion must be firmly estab1dshed In the mind of the patient!'

Butchers and merchant sea- men are among the most short-lived people. The mortality among butch- ers is twice as great, while that of merchant seamen is three and one -hal( times as great as that of clergymen and agricultural laborers. ,Butchers and seamen live largely on meat, pre -1 served meat, preserved vegtables and ; other stale food which is only eaten - spad•ingly or not at all by the clergy 1 and rural workers; heeuee the high mortality of the sailors not with.' standing the bracing air of the sea.

Quest and Conquest A railway worker, a lover of- wil plants, recently told the writer he he weaved thirty miles thrice for th purpose of finding a particular specie of fern. He had heard of it growing i a certain disrtriet-. and, being of mar occurrence in the neighborhood, he se out OR the quest. Twice he returned empty-handed. On the third Bittern')he found his treasure. He had walked ninety miles for it and thought himself amply rewarded: A great lover of wild birds end a skillful photographer of them has fo years gtven almost every bout of his leisure to that hobby. He has been out at as early as two or three o'clock in the morning to make his observa- tions. Some of his photographs were the reward'of almost endless patience For birds do trot pose for the photo- grapher, If they know he 1s near he gets no photograph. He must breeds hide himself. But how great the joy when after long and patient seeking, lie gets his pictures—birds on the nest, birds feed- ing their' young, sometimes even stand- ing on their backs to feed them! A man must be prepad'ed to put heart and strength into his•qu'est. That is the spirit behind every discovery. All great discoveries have first of all been seekers, passionately keen and invincibly patient. Sir .William Her- shel, for instance, famous among other things for his discovery of the planet Uranus, used to continue his observa- tions of the sky the night through. Forsceneyearshe observed every sin- gle hour, when the weather wee clear, and hiseobservatiouls were all made in the open air. Midwinter- or midmire- mer he was there. The coldest nights were often the finest opportunity. His sister Caroline helped by writing down his olteervations as he made them, -They were iteen.
