It is human nature to gaze upon horror--sometimes in sympathy, but more often in amazement.

Sometimes a well staged scene of gormandizing viewed from a seat in the second or third row center of a softly lighted, thick carpeted food emporium _saves us the price of our own meal_.

We no longer hunger on our own account.

Our appetite is appeased by proxy, so to speak, and we calmly fix our eyes on the "big show" and _sigh for a baseball bat_.
No wonder a noted bachelor of medicine declares "People are what they eat!" The exclamation point is our own.

We quite agree with our medical brother for we have seen people eat until we thought _we_ would never be hungry again.
But there is more to self-indulgence than the food specialist has to answer for, so we will be on our way.
