Dainty Foods for Fine Folks.

There is a theory, old as tradition. that
gentle people should be fed exclusively
on dainty foods. The body grows upon
what It feeds, and II the structure is to
be fair. beautiful and chaste the building
materials should be as fresh. nrm and
refined as earth can produce. Those
who follow the arts, whose calling is
lofty, who cherish ideals and believe
that the aristocracy OF money is not the
true noblesse. should have a diet COM

Flushing Dudes, College Point Girl.

To tho Editor:

paper about Flushing swells and College Point
bellies. Now. I would like to say this about the
College Point girls II you 90 along the street

curl up their upper lip with a sneer and say,
" Shut up. you loafer," or tell you to " Mind
your own business" I do not mean all of

Value of Fruifa

Fruits are better than drugs to i'm.
prove the stomach and complexion. 1t is
not a fact that fruits produce acidity Of
the stomach. On the contrary, they cor
rect 1t. Ripe apples, pears, plums and
peaches eaten raw, without sugar, are
medicine for sour stomach. The veg
etab.e salts are converted into alkaline
carbonates. which purify by counteract-
ing the acidity already in the stomach.
Diners who overeat and have fits of
Indigestion and the blues next morning,
take carbonate Of soda, In tablets or
liquid; ripe. juicy apple or two and no
other breakfast would cost less and do
more good.
