There is but one sure cure for the
drinking disease or habit, and that is
the simplest of all. The cure consists
in eating fruits. That will cure the
worst case of inebriety that ever af-
flicted a person. 1t will entirely de
stroy the taste for intoxicants and will
make the drunkard return to the
thoughts and tastes Of his childhood.
when he loved the luxuries nature had
provided for him and when his appetite
had not become contaminated by false,
cultivated tastes and attendant false
desires and imaginary pleasures. No
person ever saw man or woman who
liked fruit and who had. an appetite
for drink No person ever saw a man
or woman with an appetite for drink
who liked fruit. The two tastes are at
deadly enmity with each other, and
there is no room for both of them in the
same human constitution. One will
surely destroy the other.-What to Eat
