may make trouble for the curious and
apparently useless vermiforn appen-
dix. Al unknown bat surely large

cause they have a more or less definite
idea that risk to life and Bodily Ttgar
lies in It's juicy globes. Meanwhile
hundreds Of millions Of the people of
Europe and Asia-the Italians, Span
iards, Portuguese, Greeks, French,
Germans, Austrians, Hungarians,
Turks and Persians-eat grapes to an
extent uncommon in America. II they
suffer .as often from appendicitis as
the most careful people Of this country
there are no records which indicate
such conditions. The weight Of evil
dence clearly acquits the grape seed.
