The Food of the Coming Man.

Prof. w. o. Atwater, the chemist.
in an instructive article i'm the
Forum, points out the curious fact
that, in the extraordinary applica-
tions of science to practical prob
lens in recent years, one OF the most
important fundamental problems has
been strangely overlooked. viz, the
scientific study of food. The coming
man will avoid four mistakes that
are now largely made: L. He will
not buy as expensive kinds of food as
are nov generally bought, because
some of the least expensive foods are
the most nutritivc and palatable.
.. With further scientific informa-
ton the coming man will value foods
in proportion to their nutritive quail
ties. 3. If the goods are bought
and eaten with reference to their
nutritive qualities, and not to mere
fashion or habit, it would require a
much less quantity to keep a mar in
his best working condition than is
now generally consumed. 4. There
will be a revolution wrought in the
present way of cooking, which is
both wa%stcful'and primitive and far
behind our advancement in almost
every other art.
Professor Atwatcr gives the results
of practical studies in diets made to
show these conclusions. And he asks:
"Has man yet reached his highest
development? The poorer classes of
people-and few of us realize how
numerous they arc-the world over
are scantily nourished. The majori-
ty of mankind live on IL nutritive
plane far below that with which we
are familiar. We ma hope for the
best culture, not of the intellectual
powers, but of the higher Christian
graces in the minds and hearts of
men. in proportion as the care of
their bodies is provided for. Happily,
with advance of knowledge comes
the improvement of material condi-
tions. May we not hope that the
future development of our race will
bring that provision for physical
wants which is requisite for the best
welfare Of mind and soul?

Consumption of Tea.

A decided difference of opinion ex-
lists throughout the world as to the
merit of the cup that cheers and not
%inebriates. The teapot gets but little
rest in western Australia. where the
annual consumption per head is over
ten pounds. The Briton consumes A.
pounds and the American Ia, while
the Germans get along with an
average of an ounce per capita. The
Frenchman never drinks tea; he
takes a cup occasionally with u wry
face when he feels sick and desperate.

sul,er.t ton.

Some people are superstitious. They
will not occupy a roomi in a hotel that is
numbered thirteen. and so great is this
feeling that in many hotels they have
to skip this number because no n
will take it. One will not set out on a
journey on Friday and other tremble
when they spill the salt. All these
are the remains of old superstitions
connected with heathendom and the
worship of the gods. Little things
should be regarded, but it should be
such small things as enter into the
daily life and tend. if neglected, to cut
short the span of life. For instance
beware of indigestion. This is the
gate which if left unguarded admits u
world of enemies. When YOU are
annoyed in this manner take the Laxa-
tive Gum Drops. They are as their
name indicates. q mild and gentle
laxative. They contain nothing deleter-
ious, but they will ure the worst case
of constipation and any form of bowel
trouble. Get them of any dealer. The
