THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Subject.

We hear much nowadays about
health foods ana hygicnic living. about
vcgctarianiSm ana many other lads
along the same line.
Restaurants may bc found in jhe
large cities Whorc no meat. pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is
in his giary. ana arguments ana
theories galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomao hs. ana almost make us believe
that our sturdy ancestors who lived
four score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton must
have been grossly ignorant of the laws
of health.
Our forefathcrs had other things to
do than fol emulate theories about the
food they ate. \ warm welcome
was extended to any kind from ba con
, t. acOrnS.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow in
matters of diet, and a mixed diet Of
! grains. fruits and meats is undouhted-
! ly the best.
| AS compared with grains and vcGe-
tables. meat furnishes the most nutri-
mcnt in highly concentrated form
! and is digested and assimiated more
! quickly than vcgeta bles and grains
Or. Julius Rcmmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run
! down in health and of low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of it. If
| the digestion is too feeble at fir It it
may be easily corrected by the regular
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. Two Of these ex-
ccllent tablets taken after dinner will
, digest several thousand grains of
meat, eggs or other anma! food in
three hours. and no matter how weak
the stomach may be. no trouble will

made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
! Tablets because they supply tho pensin
and diastase necessary to perfect
digestion, and every form of indi@es-
F.! ton Will be overcome by their use

under the head Of nervous dySpeptics
should eat plenty Of meat and insure
it's proper digestion by the daily use Of
q safe, harmless digestive medicine

posed of the natural digestive princi-
pies. pepsin. diaStase, fruit acids pnd
salts, which actually perform the work
Of digestion. Cheap Cathartic medi-
Cines maSquerading under the name of
dyspepsia cures are useless for ;;di-
gestiOn as they have absolutely no
effect upon the actual digestion Of
food
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply failure OF the stomach to lii

the riddle and cure the dyspepsia il; to

In his inaugural address, this week.
Mayor Hoothby Of Portland. suggested
that cooking as we'll as sewing should
be taught the girls of the upper gram
mar grades. This would seem to be 4
step in the line Of progress. Sewing
has been taught in the schools Of
few cities in this state for several
years with most gratifying results,
but should Portland decide to place
cooking On its school curriculum it
will have the honor, we believe, of BE-
ing the first Maine city to 50 digaify
the saucepan and spoon. Cooking in
the public schools. is not enc of the
late fads. by any means, rs it has been
in tho Boston schools since 1850. and
