When we think of overweight and underweight, we should remember that they mean over the "average" or under the average weight.

Unfortunately, average does not mean ideal. Bub as ideal means the best weight for each particulg; in. dividual, it is not possible for us

other than the average weight for the “average” individual.

What is the average individual and what should or does ho weigih?

The average adult male is 5 feet. 7 inches in height and weighs 150 pounds. The average adult female is 5 feet 44 inches in height. and weighs 130 pounds. Generally speaking, for each inch above or below the heigiht of 5 feet 7 inches. a. man should weigh 8 to 10 pounds more or less than 150 pounds. In women, for each inch above or be- low 5 feet 4 inches, the weight should be 6 to 8 pounds more or less.

As mentioned before, the figures for the average man or woman are based on the height of those of average build and do not. take into consideration the differences in build or physique. Thus a man or woman who is stocky should weigh more than one of average build: and one of slender build should weigh less than one of average build. We thus can see why it is possible for men and wocnen of

to compare our weight with any .

slender build to be asmuch as 15 to 20 pounds less for their height than those of heavy or stocky build.

In addition to this average. slender and stocky types, we must remember also that there are some individuals with short bodies and long legs who will weigh less for their height than those of average build. Those with long bodies and short legs will weigh more than those of average build with the average or normal length of body and legs.

so. before figuring out. your best weight for your height. take a look at yourself and then decide Whe- ther you need more or less weight to attain your ideal poundage.

Lovers’ Quarrels

llnupie Who Battle Over Every Trifle iieaiied For Stormy Marriage

Among the baseless superstitions that have warped the judgment! of mankind and brought untold suffering upon millions of people is the belief that there is scene conjure in the marriage ceremony that will completely alter the natures of men and women and change them frormwhat t-hey are to what. they should be.

Rarely, if ever, does this miracle happen. For we are, for the most part, what Nature made us, with the amount of brawn and brains and the kind of disposition that she allotted us. And, for the other part, we have tastes and habits and opinions that we have spent twenty years in acquiring and that are practically unbreakable.

‘ Yet in spite of all of this, which is a matter of common knowledge, we are credulous enough to thlii-k that when we get married 'we can not only make over our husbands and wives to our hearts‘ , desire, but that. we will be automatically turned into household angels ourselves.

In proof oi the blind faith that we have in this fallacy, take the letlter that I got tcday from a young woman who writes me that she is engaged to be married to a young man with whom she is much in love, as he is with her. but that instead of billing and cooing as lovers are supposed to do, they fight. like the Kilkenny cats. There is no sub- ject so innocuous- that they cannot get inio a hot argument over it. Neither one can express an opinion without starting something. They are bitterly critical of anything the other one does. or says. or has, and they almost come to blows over a. book, or the movies, or where they shall go when they step out.

PEACEFUL MARRIAGE?

"My fiance," goes on the girl, "says that this does not. matter. and he quotes to me the old proverb that a stormy courtship makes a peaceful marriage, and he tells me that after we are married and tsettled we won't. have any difference of opinion. Do you think this is

rue?’

No, it isn't true. It is the most. mischievous falsehood that was ever promulgated, for the marriage ceremony is not a peace treaty. It is a call to arms. Husbands and wives whose interests, whose tastes and upbringing and desires conflict at. every angle have a. thousand more things to quarrel over than siveetheartg have, and if before mar- riage they cannot get along harmoniously togetheinmfter marriage they v\'_ill either fight their way to the divorce court, or else become one of those pitiful couples whose whole married life is‘just an en- durance test.

Of course, there are husbands and wives who are natural scrap- pers who were born with a chip on their shoulders, and who enjoy (Continued on Page 3_)

Dominion Day, knitting closely the Provinces "from sea to sea" came at. dawning, when the coin:- tryside was dawy and nothing yet astir except the cattle stretching lazily in the meadow and one of Mr. C's cats from the house on the hill. IProm the new window, I saw her come along a waste-gate and enter the short-cut, which leads up to our gate-way, to be well in time for the milking. Thus it. was in a peace that one prays may be last- ing, the holiday returned to Aide." lea to remind an Island farm woman how good is the heritage that is hers, her lot. being indeed cast in pleasant places, Not at al‘ living in the lap of luxury in tnis ordinary farm home of ours, but

' free from the want and fears the‘

women in many another country must endure-free in Canada and on The Island to live. and work, and worship, to run a home and care for her family, and rear her children pretty much as her in- clination fancies. This ls the good fortune of all Island farm women. What better life would they ask? O O O

At the end of the morning chur- ing. which is breakfast time, we said with some significance: "This is a holiday" and went to our iri- door duties more leisurely on that account. More than once we cams to a doorway to watch the sunlight. dappie the valley which holds the old mill and stream in its (lEPLHS; to lift eyes “unto the hills" above; to catch the exquisite scent of ice gentle wandering wind and to lis- ten to the cadence of bird song woven with the sound of the fan- ing water at. the over-flow on the dam. We would enjoy this day, we promised ourself, have it to re member. the peace and delight of it. with grand-daughter and all, in- to, we hoped, new years. And then, doubtless catching sight. of a ioiier- ing woman, James called from the yard: “It's a grand day, Ellen, isn't it? Not going to be so hot as yes- terday, I think, but warm enough I expect. We're going to take the young cattle up to the other faiin now when it's cool" then added with subtle suggestion "But I guess you're busy, Elieni".

If, James had lived in Bible times he is one who could have found work for every member of his ho ehold, I'm surel But. no one coui withstand so tempting an opportunity to be out of doors on a dsw-pearled morning like this. I followed with the farmers after their cattle. Recounting it later b0 Mr. C, from the house on the hill, James saidi “We put the catiae away today. the young fellow and l". and when I looked up at lhlls he remembered “and. Ellen-Eh" came with us mi- company!" Sleek and quite handsome the herd is now, down to the smallest yearling, their coats glistening in the suri- liglit. "Now there" I remarked» "singling out. by sight a pretty rel.‘ and white heifer "wouldn't. that. one make a fine cow?" and won- daring then about her breeding. I asked: “And where did we W! her?" "Buy heri" James repealed astounded, "well if you don't best everything! and you a farmers wife. That heifer‘: one of the Kc.- ly cow's. Why Jamie would know thati" - _ _

Then i. was that Jamel marching briskly on their heels reminded me "Youu better keep closer, Ellen -but ll0o
