A DIARY OF HEALTH HINTS

Dr. Shrubsall has found a thought on health forevery day of the year and embodied the result in aneat little book, one thought to a page, with theappropriate date at the top.! An irresistible impulseto treat it as a birthday book will probably preventthe reader from taking it seriously at the outset;this is a pity because most people find one healththought a day quite enough to assimilate, if not toomuch, and it is convenient and helpful to have apage of sensible information ready to our handsfor daily use. Probably the advice given will rarelyprove to be applicable to the special trials of eachday, but provision has been made to overcome thisdifficulty ; if one wakes convinced that he hascancer on June 24th, only to find that the day’shealth reminder deals with the dangers of cross-

country running, he can turn at once to the indexto learn that his present phobia was discussed onJan. 7th. Sir Arthur Newsholme, in his foreword,points out that references to diet and daily physio-logical duties recur frequently, and that repetition ofadvice upon these subjects from various angles ismost valuable. More than one date is given up toa note on the increase of street accidents, andDr. Shrubsall will have performed a service to thecommunity if he can help us to exercise discretionand good sense in our dealings with traffic. Herepeatedly advises his readers, when in doubt, torefer their problems to the doctor, but believes thatif his suggestions on hygiene are followed the servicesof a doctor will be required less, rather than more,frequently. Advice is given in straightforwardlanguage and on a pleasantly personal note ; hisdevotion to inverted commas, however, makesreading an optical hurdle-race.
