Also, a. campaign against _ ' starving one‘s self into self-destruction would pre- vent the filling of many graveyards. rl \ In my especial work on ductless-gland diseases ' I have referred to me by other physicians many ' cases of thyroid disorder in the form of marked underfunctioning and manked overfunctloning dir- ectly traceable to the unwarranted weight-reducing ductless glands, especially the thy- either whipped up or more commonly depressed, occasionally out of all balance by the lack of 'pabulum, which they require for functioning.. It must not be forgotten that the functions of the ve, or involuntary .nervous system, are dovetailed, as it were, with the ductless-gland system, so that the clinical picture becomes omplicated in a case of this sort.. last, but not least, if the gland and the vegetable nervous system are abnormal, how can t the mentality oi' the individual to be in proper balance? so we are occasionally faced with the sad spectacle of a com- plicated montal aberration varying from incapacity for the enjoyment of social intercoluse to a definite form of insanity in one who only a short time previous had been a perfect picture of physical and mental health-all because of the inexplicable desire to become a living skeleton. Medical science has shown that a healthy layer of adipose tissue ding the bony frame and muscular structure of an individual is bromide against melancholia, constipation, edgy nerves and poor ' in general. I am not arguing in favor of obesity. I am simply he fact that five pounds wo much is far preferable to underweight the slightest degree. When we are faced, as we are now, with the scourge. or epidemic, of ruthless self-examination through voluntary starvation, the vocabulary falls short of supplying adjectives sufficient to the folly of the individuals concemed. DOCTOR. Girl ur letter is written by one of the most eminent scientists in the States and I give it in full, hoping that it will be a warning to who is wrecking her health and shortening her days in her figure. how far this mania for being nothing but s rack of bones has silly little nincompoop daughters, I had forcibly impressed upon other day when I was standing near a weighing machine in a big department store. A group of six or eight girls, one after the other, d the scales.. Not one of them weighed as much as l00 pounds, all weighed 98 pounds, over which they all exclaimed in horror and began advising her upon reducing diets.
