A valuable letter from a correspond
ent drew attention to an important and
admitted cause Of the national degen-
GRAFTON of physique which we have
striven to emphasize in these columns.
The roller mill has undoubtedly di-
minfshed the dietetic value of our
bread. The entire wheat grain is Of
value-the husk (Which is a valuable
intestinal stimulanD, the brown ex-
terror and the white central core. Ex-
cept for certain invalids white bread
is an indefensible absurdity. Better is
brown bread, consisting of all but the
husk, and best is a whole meal bread,
assuming such to be obtainable. The
deficiency of salts in white bread is
unquestionably related to the deterior-
ation-also familiar to our readers-in
the national teeth. We may illustrate
this by an argument from Sir Thomas
Lauder Brunton. ''Why has America

EYerYhodY knows the nrettY little


Everybody knows the pretty little
forgetmenot and likes the flower more
perhaps because of its name than its
beauty. How was it so called? The
Germans account for it by quite, pa
thetic romance. 1t seems that once
upon a time knight and lady were
walking by the bank of the Danube
when the latter asked her gallant
gay" to pluck for her a tiny blue flower
which she saw growing in the stream.
No sooner said than done, but the
knight, overbalancing, fell" into the
river, and owing to the slippery nature
of the bank and the weight of his own
armor was carried away by the cur
rent. AS he threw the flowers ashore
to his lady he cried out with his last
breath, "VeFgiss mein nicht!' C'For-

flower has been looked on as the en-
