There is no diet which is suited to all cases of kidney disease. The pro- per diet in any individual case de- pends uponi the nature and extent of I the disease. People nave read that acid foods are harmful, start to live on What they think is, a nonâ€"acid diet, without even know- ing what are the acid and what are the alkaline foods. As a matter of fact, a diet made up of an excess of alkaline foodsl is actually harmful, and it is cert- ainly not the best diet for damaged ~‘ kidneys. There should be a balanced diet, so that there is no marked ex-I cess of either alkaline or acid foods. A slight excess of alkaline foods is generally desirable. The acid foods are meats, poultry, fish, eggs, and the cereals. Alkaâ€" line foods are the fruits and vege- tables. pic that the citrus fruits leave an alkaline ash after they are used up I in the body, and that oysters leave] an acid ash. Practically this means[ that the diet should include a liberal amount of fruits and vegetables. There is a real difference between a salt-free diet and a salt-poor diet. In some cases of nephritis, it is neâ€" cessary to cut down: the amount of salt used, because the kidney has difficulty in secreting it, which leads to oedema, or swelling. A saltâ€"free diet requires medical supervision. A salt-poor diet can be secured through ’ not adding salt to the food at table, and by avoiding salted fish, nuts and other salted foods. When diet is a part of the treat- ment for any disease, it requires just I as careful prescribing and supervi- sion as does any other part of the treatment. Diet is certainly not a 'cure-al'l, but it is of importance in the treatment of some diseases. Self- ‘experime'ntation by trying variouSI diets is dangerous, because of the harm which it may cause. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toron- to, will be answered personally by letter. _ Read Kerr Bros. specials in this issue.

I no good. No man would leave a good wife. ery atom of common sense. She could lthink of nothing â€"â€" she didn’t even notice that Pedro had taken many Iof the wares they had brought to Texas. Scarce thinking of the trailâ€" er she abandoned at the roadside she started the long journey back to her Mexican home on footâ€"over highway and stubble and prairie and mOuntain top. It was a saga in enâ€" durance but Mexican women, are ~hardy and Maria had walked long Edistances before. And then the lie came to her. She told those she met, “My husband was killedâ€"my hus- band was killedâ€"My husband was ’ killed.” And they believed so quickly that she almost believed it herself. And in Tancanhuitz even the Indians mourned with the Mexican woman whose husband was killed in Texas. And, in the meantime where was ‘ Pedro? I He was streets of Dallas, crushc news he had just heard. He had meant that day he went away, to hurry, sell his wares, give b's wife a fl‘iu‘lit, and return at once. But Pedro was a dreamer and the wanderlust took hold. Simple hus- band that he was he never dreamed his wife would not wait for his re- turn. And his return, weeks later was made in very high spirits indeed. He was bursting to tell Maria what wandering thr ugh the by the how much he had sold. But there Iwas no Maria â€" and only scattered fragments of the trailer. Frantical- ly he sought information. What had happened? Where was his wife? “Gosh, feller. Was that your trail- er? Too bad ~â€" reckon your wife ;was done for. Bus crashed into that filtrailer a week ago. Ten people kill-' , ed. If your wife was in it she c0uld- n’t 3 got out alive.

Passionate as are all the Latins, his grief knew no bounds, his mind no reason. He ‘started home in his car. It broke down. Instead of having it repaired -‘the crazed man left it by the road- side and started to walk â€" even as Maria had done. “Mg” wife died in Texas in an ac- cident. Oh, if I only hadn’t left her. I wanted to show her what. a good business man I was.” Near Tancanhuitz he met a startl- ed villager. Eagerly he told the man his story. Then he plodded home. Only the most imaginative can. sur- mise the meeting between Pedro and Maria â€"â€" the explanations, the cha- grin, the pleasure and the promises never to quarrel again. But almost any one in Mexico can understand the excitement in Tanâ€" ’canhuitz when the villager who had met Pedro told. his story. But Pedro was dead â€" Maria had said so. “Ah,” said the wise ones. “You did not see the man â€"â€" you saw his ghost come home to Maria.” But Maria was deadâ€"Pedro said so. “Ah, then that is not Maria who came home w it is her ghost come back to wait for Pedro."
