"What Is the best food for producing muscle?p
Thls question OF our correspondent is legitimate

others produce fat, and still others brain and

combine these uses In varying degrees
But the question to cover our entire physical
needs Requires TO be broadened into this: w ar
combination OF food Will best nourish the bodyf
Even then the answer must be modified TO suit In
dfviduai cases. For the digestive power differs

''Rum Grass'' Too Much for Them.

cockney who learned The virtues OF mint tulep

taught the chiefs how to compound the aromatic

that is the way 1t was With the Englishman's
