II Of Little Benefit Unless It Il

Nearly everyone will admit that as a
nation we eat too much meat and too lit
tie of vegetables and the grains.
For business men, Office men and clerks
and in fact everyone engaged in seden-
tary or indoor occupations, grains. milk
andj vegetables are much more health
full.
Only men engaged in severe outdoor
manual labor can live on a heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
AS general rule, meat once day
is sufficient for all classes of men, wom-
en- and children, and grains, fruit and
vegetables should constitute the bulk of
food eaten.
But many Of the most nutritious foods
are difficult of digestion and it is of no
use to advise brain workers to eat large
" of grains and vegetables where the
digestion is too weak to assimilate them
properly.
1t is always best to get the best results
from our food that some simple and
harmless digestive snould be taken after
meals to assist the relaxed digestive or
