Fruit may be blessing or curse, &C
cording to the way it is used. If eaten
too green or when overripe, in undue
quantity or when the stomach is in no
condition to receive it, fruit may prove
very injurious to health. But If eaten
when it is fairly ripe, in due quantity and
as part of the regular meal, nothing
could be more relishable or wholesome.
