a food and a. a medicine. The effect OF a constant
Use of malt liquors has been 10 increase the weight

pepsia and pulmonary or wasting diseases. Pracii
cal investigation has revealed the fact that these
desirable conditions moi promoted by beer. a.

dlastase. which converts the starch of food into
glucose, product into which all starch must he
