_"Why Fuss so Much About What I Eat ?"_ I KNOW a woman who insisted that it was impossible for her to eat strawberries because they did not agree with her.

A friend told her that that was simply a habit of her mind.

Once, at a time when her stomach was tired or not in good condition for some other reason, strawberries had not agreed with her, and from that time she had taken it for granted that she could not eat strawberries.

When she was convinced by her friend that her belief that strawberries did not agree with her was merely in her own idea, and not actually true, she boldly ate a plate of strawberries.

That night she woke with indigestion, and the next morning she said "You see, I told you they would not agree with me." But her friend answered: "Why, of course you could not expect them to agree right away, could you?
Now try eating them again to-day." This little lady was intelligent enough to want the strawberries to agree with her and to be willing to do her part to adjust herself to them, so she tried again and ate them the next day; and now she can eat them every day right through the strawberry season and is all the better for it.
This is the fact that we want to understand thoroughly and to look out for.
