Why Everybody Should
Eat a Plenty of Pineapples

The partaking of a slice OF pineap-
pie after meal is quite in accordance
with physiological indications, since,
though it may not be generally known.
fresh pineapple juice contains a re
markable digestive principle. similar
to pepsin.
This principle has been termed
"bromeline, and so powerful is its ac-
ton upon the most nutritious kinds of
foods that it will digest, the London
Lancet asserts. as much as 900 times
its weight within a few hours. It's
digestive activity varies in accord
"rce with the kinds of food to which
it IS subjected.
Flhrin disappears entirely after a
time. With the coagulated albumen
of eggs the digestive process is slow,
Willie with the albumen of meat its
action seems first to produce Il pulpy
Seiatlnous mass, which. however,
completely dissovles after a short
time.

tino OF the engine of the juice OF
course, ii is we'll known that digestive
agents exist also in other fruits. but
when il is considered that an average
sized pineapple will yield nearly two
pints of juice, ii will be seen that the
digestive action of the whole fruit
must be enormous.
The activity OF this peculiar diges-
tive agent is destroyed in the cooked
pineapple. but unless the pineapple
is preserved by heat there is no lea-

the dog as lost, but a week later the

that dog returned to camp from over

dogs can kill seal, but one dog can
not; and this dog had evidently been

Last spring one day in the cloak

gave an exhibition of absent minded

senator an incident which happened
in his state.
i was at mass meeting once upon
a time said Mir Vest. when we dis
cussed a resolution of some kind or
ether for several hours. Finally one
OF the delegates began a speech
which wandered all over creation.
Some one interrupted him with the
remark that he ought to c0nfine his
remarks to the resolution.
Let us have the resolution read,
sugges ed some oDa in the meeting.

The party was composed OF those per-

the invitations owing to other uaavoid-

But those who went we're amply re-

party to which they had been bidden, as

and that an orchestra was waiting for
them with an elegant program Of dance

For several hours they enjoyed the
