The acids of the apple are of singular
Use for men of scdcntary habits whose
livcrs arc sluggish in action, these acids
serving to eliminate from the body noXiouS
mattcrS which, if retained would mako
the brain heavy and tilill or bring about
jaundicc or SKIN cruptionS or other allied
troubles. Some such experience must have
led TO the custom of taking apple sauce
with roast pork, rich goose and like dishes.
The MALE acid of ripe apples. either raw
or cooked, will ncutralize any excess Of
chalky matter cngcndcyed by eating too
much meat. 1t is also fact that such

when taken ripe and without sugar, di-
minish acidity in the stomach rather than
