FIFTY TONS OF CANDY

Have Been Sent to Our Soldiers In the
Philippine Stands by tho Govern
ment.
FIFTY tong Of candy have been sent
to the soidiers in the Philippine islands
BY the commissary department of the
army during the last three months and
large amounts 10 the soldiers in Cuba
mi Porto Rico.
h Isl done upon advice of the medi-
cal officers of the army, because II IS a
physiological fact that a moderate con-
sumption Of confectionery promotes
health n satisfies a natural craving
OF the stomach.
Candy was never furnished to the
United States army before, altho it has
been commonly used as a ration by
the French and British troops in the
tropics.
This explodes another ~old-fashiened
theory that sweets were injurious TO the
digestive organs, while a moderate use
of sweets is actually beneficial.
Very few things are Injurious and tbs
food cranks who advocate the use OF &
few grains and vegetables, and deciy thu
use of sweets and meats are in error, a:
a wholesome variety of meat and vege
table food is absolutely necessary fol
the maintenance of the highest condi
ton of health.
The best rule 10 follow IS 10 eat wha:
the appetite crayes n If there IS an.
discomfort or trouble in digesting mea
and sweets, the difficulty can be rcadil,
overcome by the regular uss after meal
Of sone safe digestive composed OF pep
sir and d~iastas- which viii assist TIL
stomach by increasing the flow Of gas
