your blood is bad, your health must suf-

both poor and impure blood, for it is
both a builder and purifier - food

tlal nervous matter. he old
scandinavian traditions repre-
sent the apple as the food OF tie
gods who. when they felt that
they were growing old and feble
and mfr n, resorted to this fruit
for renewing their powers of
mind and body as we'll. The
acids of the apple are also of sig
nal use for men of sedentary
habits whose livers are sluggish
in action. These acids serve to
eliminate form the BODY noxious
m. Which, if retained, would
make the brain heavy and dull or
bring about ~jaundice or skin
eruptions and other allied
troubles.
The ancient habit of taking ap-
pie sauce with roast pork, rich
goose and like dishes, is based
on scientific reasons. The mal:ic
acid of ripe apples, either raw or
cooked, will n%eutralize any. excess
of fatty matter engcndercd by
eating too much neat. Fresh
fruits, such as the apple, the pear
and the plum, when taken ripe
and without sugar, diminish acid
ity in the stomach rather than
provoke it.
Their vegetable salts and iuic-
es are converted into alkaline car
Donates, and which tend to cour-
teract acidity. Agood, ripe, raw
apple is n of the easiest veg
table substances for the stomach
to deal with, the whole process
of its digestion being completed
in eighty-fve minutes. Besides
these midicinal qualities of the
apole, it has great virtue for local
applications. The pairing of an
apple cut somewhat thick is an
ancient remedy for infidmed eyes,
being tied on at night when the
patient goes to bed. In France,
a common remedy for inhamed
eyes is an apple poultice, the APP
pie beng roasted and it's pulp
applied over the eyes without any
intervening substance.
It's true there is a great deal of
difference of opinion concerning
the apple, and its medicinal and
food values. This is one of the
extremely commedatory views.
But that there is truth in it,
seems undoubted. All who have
good digestion seem much bene-
fitted by a free use of raw apples.
Those who suffer from such kind
of indigestion as is affected bv
acids seem to be unable to digest
raw apples, but any n can eat
them cooked particularly if they
do not S too much sugar in
cooking. Don't depend upon the
malic acid neutralizing an excess
of fatty matter in meat; better
not eat an xcess of fatty matter
just enough is better, and saves
the energy which would have to
be used for digesting the evcess
for better work.-Ex.
