_THE REVIEW

with Imogene

DEAR IMOGENE ~

I know yours isn’t a doctor’s
column, but maybe you can give
me some insight into why I’m
always tired. Looking back over
the past year I can’t remember
when I wasn’t tired. Even doing
things I enjoyed, I just couldn’t
get up energy to do them
properly. I get what used to be
enough sleep, and even if I sleep
over eight hours, I still wake up
fatigued. I eat a fairly balanced
diet, and though I snack often —
candies, ice-cream, chips etc.,
I'm not gaining weight’ as I
should, as I’m under-weight. How
can I feel -more relaxed and
refreshed?

DEAR WEARY ONE

No, mine isn’t a-doctor’s
column, and the first thing you
MUST do is visit your friendly
family physician! He’ll check you
over and probably give you a diet
sheet to ensure that your meals
are properly balanced. Probably,
too, he’ll advise cutting out

candies, which certainly won't do -

anything for your health — or
teeth! Ditto ice-cream. Ask him
about going on to honey to satisfy
your sweet-tooth. It’s a natural
sweetener, and between-meals
‘snacks’ of milk with honey ad-
ded, are deliciously refreshing
and nourishing. A few people are
allergic to ‘‘bee-nectar’’, so it’s

important to get medical ap-
proval before eating a lot of the
lovely liquid-gold! .

DEAR IMOGENE
T’ve just come to live i in Sidney,

and may I say how beautiful your

Island is. Now, my problem:..I’m
_ in my sixties and a great reader.
- However, it’s getting more and
-- more difficult I find to know what
_. books’ to choose any more. So
“many nowadays are either sordid
“ or have no proper plot at all — or
~ both! Some help, please.

even the renowned Mrs. B. went
quite that far! These two

ladies at the court of Versailles in

Monarch’s favourite mistress
