As the eating of food raises the blend pressure, treating hlgih b'ood pressure by putting the patient on a starvation or scmistarvation diet has been tried with considerable success, Dr. J. Hartsilver tn the BrftLsh Medical Journal reports the results of treating 48 patients by semlstarvatlon with the following d1et:—-8.30 a m.—one cup of hot water or lemon water and sugar. liquor from stewed or tinned fruft; 930-10 a.m.—ora.nge or grape- fruit. lulce; 1.00 p.m.-hot. vege- table soup (1 pint): 3.00 p.m. — hot water or lemonade and grape-i; 5.00 p.m.-orange juice hot. or cold; 7.30 p.m.——vegetab‘e soup. No meat. extract. and no bones should be used ln preparing the vegetable soup. Use boiled potato water.

‘The patient remislns on this diet for six days; on the seventh he eats what he llikas.

What Is Democracy

A correspondent writes to ob- ject to “a couple of dozen M.P.’s" deciding who should be leader of the Conservative party, asks how this “fits 1n wfth the theory of democracy."

The answer. of course. ls that a couple of dozen MP3s haven't de- cfded who should be leader of the Conservatlve party. ‘That. declsloon was made by a national convention 1n 1927.
