BY ANNABELLE WORTHINGTON There are many holidayâ€"makers who visit the scenes of Arthurian romance yearly, yet never reaiize the fact.

Frequently we pick up the papers and in the doctor‘s column of quesâ€" tions and answers, we see the oft repeated pathetic call from our fieshy sister, "Doctor, how can I reduce?" These are but a few words but we know they mean a great deal. The reply is generally this, "Reducing is just a matter of selfâ€"control," which leaves a sort of feeling of being susâ€" pended in the .alr, for still the "how" is not answered. _ Someone whispers "diet," but that very word nearly alâ€" ways makes the overweight person balky right at the start, for she sees visions of good things she likes, placâ€" ed tantalizingly before her with big "touchâ€"me therefore gin.

It is true often I would go to a tea, have a good time and come home, after having eaten sandwiches, cake, and perhaps ice cream, and then eat some supper just to be sociable; while cooking I liked to see if things tasted right and often without thinkâ€" ing would eat a piece of cake, or a cookie, between meals. I felt virtuous because I put a ban on taking second helpings, for I knew they were the cause of . more added avoirdupois than anything else; I ate quantitles of raw fruit between or after a full meal and thought they only consisted of water and vitamins. _ But I know better now, and nothing could â€"inâ€" duce me to roturn to the old way of But it can be done, an‘ oh joy, it can be done without sufforin« hunge? pangs and without your having to give up all social functions where tempting viands appear to tempt one‘s appetite.

It proved wonderfully helpfu‘ and a real eyeâ€" opener. _ From then on I delved into doctor‘s and dietitians‘ books until I learned what caused my abnormal weight. I found too, I must reduce slowly so as not to ingure what health I had, and after carefully working out a system of eating which will be set forth in succeeding artiâ€" cles, discovered to my delight and comfort that my health was greatly improved when I gradually threw overboard the excess baggage I had been carrying' in the form of superâ€" fluous weight.

What I learned I joyfully give to my overweight sisters for I have found it largely a matter of diet. _ It does not mean, however, doing withâ€" out a fleshy person‘s favorite foods alâ€" together. I found I could enjoy all foods. I didn‘t need to avoid them. It is mostly a mater of cutting down on the quantity of certain kinds of foods. If you know the values of foods that will enable you to reduce you will find it best to eat more of them and cut down on some of the foods which are your favorites but which if taken in too large quantities add to your weight. Remember, reducing is a slow proâ€" cess because if done too quickly health is impaired. Beauty only comes with health and too strenuous reducing methods lowâ€" er the vitality. But if superfluous fat is gradually dispensed with, in its place will come health, comfort, ease of motion, not to mention improved good looks.

Another â€" strange nest in London was built by a pigeon.

"I suppose they are looking wide too," he said. "Yes, yes, there‘s so much beauty to see," rang a hundred tiny bells, He saw forest ponies that threw up their heads to look all round before they cantered off over the heath, and he saw cows that lifted their great stupid faces to the sun before they sought a patch of shade in which to lie. He felt the touch of breezes that brought the scent of the sea from the coast miles away, and shaded his eyes to look at the sun, which could see half the world at once. After this day the friends of the gipsy boy noticed that he was always happy. If a baby cried in one of the caravans it was he who offered to sing it to sleep. If water ran out, he made no bother of going to the brook for more: and always he laughed.
