Mans Natnra! Food.

Popular Science Monthly, tells us in
Its issue for January. upon the an
thority of Dr. Felix l. Oswald. that
our pepper nutriment should consist of
vegetable and semianimal substances
which can be eaten with relish before
their natural lasts has been disguised
by artificial preparation. For even the
most approved modes of grinding, bolt
ing, leavening, cooking, splicing, heat
ing and freezing our food are, strictly
speaking, abuses Of our digestive
organs. Its fallacy to suppose that
hot spices aid the process of digestion:
they lrrltate the stomach and cause il
to discharge mgesta as rapidly rs pos
sihle, rs ii would hasten to rid itself Of
tartarlzed antimony or any other
poison; but this very precipitation of
the gastric functions prevents the for
nation of healthy chyle There is an
important difference between rapid and
thorough digestion. Ina similar way.
n high temperature of our food facili-
tates deglutition, but, by dispensing
with insahvation and the proper use of
our teeth, We make the stomach per-
fern the work of our Jaws and sahyary
glands; in other words, we make our
food less digestible BY boiling our
flour and extracting the nutritiye prin-
ciplo Of various liquids, we fall into
the opposite error; we try to assist our
digestive organs by performing me-
chanicallya part of their proper and
legitimate functions. The health Of
the human system can not be main
tanned on concentrated nutrimcnt; even
the mir we mhale contains azotic gases
which must be separated from the
ife-sustailing principle by the action of
our respiratory organs-not 10y any in
organic process. We cannot breathe

What Is FittO Eat,

Science has its good points, but when
it drops into meddlesOme ways con-
corning human diet it might as well be
informed that its proper place is in a
back seat. After all the time that has
been devoted to the work Of teaching
the public what should be eaten and
what should not an English authority
now comes forward in the most frigid
manner and asserts that because some
articles of food supply contain certain
pleasing proportions of nutritlve mat
ter it is not to be supposed that the
digestive apparatus can seize upon 1t
and make the most of 1T. Evidently
the time has come III which men who
propose to live by eating might rs well
begin at once and set all physicians at
defiance. In spite of following physi-
clans Instructions no man who had
any money to spend ever starved to
death. There is nutriment even in
sawdust pudding, and the citizen who
feels a sense of responsibility to his
inner man cannot do better than 60 ON
eating Just as he has done, if at the
same time he devotes proper attention
to additions snd exercise. The prin-
cipal trouble at the present time with
men who have well supplied tables is
not so much with what is set before
them to eat as with the proper disposal
of such portions of the table supplies as
may be indigestable, and therefore
need to be disposed Of speedily and
properly. FL.
