Eat Apples at Niyht.

The apple is such a common fruit that
very few persons are familiar with its
remarkably atlicacious medicinal prop
eitfes, states the Bulletin of Pharmacy
Everybody ought to know that the very
best thing they can do is to eat apples
just before retiring for the night. Per.
sons uninitiated in the mysteries of the
fruit are liable to throw up their hands
in horror at the visions Of dyspepsia
which such Il suggestion may summon
up; but no harm can come even to a
delicate system by the eating of ripe
and inlcy apples just before going TO
bed
The apple is excellent brain food, be-
cause it has more phosphoric acid in
easily digestsd shape than other fruit.
II excites the action Of the liver, pro-
notes sound and healthy sleep, and
thoroughly disiufects the mouth. This
is not all. The apple helps the kidney
secretious and prevents calculus growihs
while it obviates indigestion and is one
OF the best known preventatiyes of dis
eases of the throat. Every should
be familiar with such knowledge.
