Is Of Little Benefit Unless Il Is d.

Nearly every one will admit that as
nation we eat too much meat and too little
OF vegetables and the grains.
For business men, office men and clerks,
and in fact every one engaged in seden-
tary or indoor occupations grains, milk
and vegetables are much more healthful.
Only men engaged in a. severe outdoor
manual labor can live on a heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
AS a general rule, meat once a day is
sufficient for all classes Of men, women
and children, and grains, fruit and vegeta-
bles should constitute the bulk Of food
eaten.
But many Of tho most nutritious foods
are difficult Of digestion, and 1t Is Of no
use to advise brain workers to eat largely
of grains and vegetables where the diges-
ton is too weak to assimilate them prop
erly.
It is always best to get the best results
from our food that some simple and harm
less digestive should be taken after meals
to assist the relaxed digestive organs, and

Messrs. T. j. Kelly and Hugo Gebert
attended the street fair at MARSHALL

looked up number of first-class at
fractions for the Denison street fair.

the trip was very beneficial, as it will
enable them to go before the business
mems meeting with something tangi-
able to present to the association.

Folding Beds.

All purchasers of folding beds do not
buy them solely for the sake of saving
room. According to a manufacturer,
some people with ample house room at
command buy them, for one reason. SO
that the rooms in which they are placed
can be put to other uses than as bed
rooms.
This manufacturer mentioned one
New York family in whose house are
eleven fine folding beds. Any room in
the house designed for and equipped as
a sleeping room could easily be trans
formed from bedroom to one that had
no appearance Of a sleeping apartment
whatever.
There are produced nowadays folding
beds of one kind and another that are
sold at low prices. but the most costly
of the finer folding beds may easily be
pretty dear affairs.
The manufacturer told of one elab-
orately designed and finished folding
bed that cost $1,000. the cost of the
carving alone having been $300.-New
York Sun.
