THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

AIso 4 Few Facts on tho Same Subject.
We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hyglenic living, about
vegetarianisln, and many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in tho
larger cities where no meat pastry or
( coffee Is served and the food crank Is
in his glory. and arguments and the
cries galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomachs, and almost make us believe
that our sturdy ancestors. who lived
four-score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant Of the laws OF
health.
Our rorefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. "A warm welcome was
extended to any kind. from bacon to
acorns.
