Depew’s Rule of Health.

Senator Chauncey M. Depew probably goes to more public dinners than any other American. He recently told the writer his secret of avoiding indigestion. “I never drink more than one kind of wine,” he said. “I smoke only two cigars. I don’t eat sweets, and I confine myself to the plain dishes and eat sparingly of those. My breakfast is a boiled egg, a glass of hot water, some dry toast and a cup of tea.”—Saturday Evening Post Owning a cow has its redeeming qualities; the family exaggerates about the. cow’s virtues thereafter instead of the neighbor’s faults.
