[Sidenote: _A Wonderful Demonstration_]

DEAR DOCTOR:

For your book, "Diet and Health, with Key to the Calories," words are
inadequate to express my thanks. For I have been delivered from a
chronic affliction of many years' duration, for which I had tried all
known methods of cure. I refer to the smoking of cheap cigars by my
husband. He suddenly found he had no desire for the noxious weed! Your
arm and leg exercises are wonderful.

An Apology and Some Amendments

On re-reading this literary gem, humorous classic, and scientific
treatise on weight reduction and gaining, I see that I have a very
intimate mixture of the thins and the fats. But that is as it should be
for balance. I had intended to keep you strictly separate, but the
preaching, the exercises, the dry definitions, the Key to the Calories,
and so forth, was matter that was applicable to both, so it could not be
done.
