alcohol" Although people might re-
gard that as an extreme statement
in fact, an exaggeration-the men of
science say that it is only an ascer-
tanned truth which ought to be widely
disseminated. The same authority as

dyspepsia is due to ton,

any shrewd saloon keeper might OBJ

erly made strong beef soup from the
heads, palates and well-cleaned hoofs
of beef cattle, or lentil broth from
lentils. It would cost him less than
his whisky and beer cost, and if put
on tap alongside of either would sell
freely in place of the liquor, because
more than half of the craving for slim
ulants is due to want of we'll cooked
food. The great secret of good cook
ing is slow cooking. The New England
clam bake furnishes an example. It
| represents a method adopted by the
Indians for centuries before Columbus
landed, when tribes from the interior
visited the coast for periodical fes-
rivals. The whites have simply imi.
tated the process.
At a modern clam bake platform

shore, and these are heated with wood
fire. After awhile the ashes are swept
away and layer of wet seaweed or
rockwell put on; on this layer of
clans; then another layer of seaweed;
then sweet corn in the milk; then more
seaweed; then some fish and Holsters;
more seaweed; more clans; finally,
in tin pans, Indian buildings, made of
corn meal and molasses; then a last
covering of seaweed, and the whole
covered over with saH:. cloth. The heat

Temperance in eating is taught by
the department, it being held that peo-

of eating, rather than for renewing
physica! energies. Too mt ch coal
and wood are used in cooking. The

science prevails on all of the people.
