The most beautiful thino: in
the world is the baby, al
dimples and ioy. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that
little fat makes all the differ
ence.
Dimples and joy have gone
and left hollows and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve-all but pity
and love-is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There is some
thing wrong; itis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living on what
she had stored in that plump
little body of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat
it is death, be quick 1
