Peanuts as Food for Rows

Most boys will indorse the sugges-
ton of the Posse Gymnasium Journal
that peanuts be provided daily by their
parents rs a school luncheon. The pe-
riodical declares that hey are the
most wholesome food for the purpose.
although all nuts are good. The belief
in the, tndigestibility of nuts, it asserts
to be due to the usual mode of eating
them at the end of tha neartiest meal
OF the day, when tie mach is filled
or overloaded. The parents who
furnish their children V - peanuts for
luncheon are advised f M tess upon
them the Importance Of IL thorough
mastication. When the NUS reach the
stomach In firm, solid Jumps, there is
little hope for assimilation. The boy
| should be careful to grind them with
his teeth to the firm fineness of meal.
for In this way the full flavor of the
kern is gotten and the nut itself pre-
pare" 20 be digested by the gastric
jric,,s. If these conditions are essen
tial to the value of peanuts as food
parents would do well not to give them
to their sons. For boy eats peanuts
much as does the elephant at the cir
GUS. He does not eat them shells and
| all, but he eats them nearly whole, be-
cause by eating them thus he can dis
pose of more in shorter time. Perhaps
he might be persuaded to chew them
fine If he is told of the Gymnasium
Journals statement that their mastica-
ton has value in strengthening the
muscles of the jaw and adjoining mus
cles of the face" thus encouraging be-
lief that the mastieation will make pos
sible the performance of the strong
jawed woman's feats, and all girls will
eat them when they know that this ex-
ercise puts the days Of wrinkles fur
Their Off"

that the only way that he CBlP, could

the man he had tried to do up, ap-
parently as unruffled as ever. Looking
at him mournfully and with profound
respect, Bill said: Boy, you take
