in which the Palace hotel is situated

FATTEN THE ICE CREAM.

Horseless carriages, wireless telegra-
phy and pitless plums are all well
enough and betoken the advance Of ci-
yilization. But when it comes to
creamless ice cream, it is quite another
story, and the line must be drawn at
the hither side. So our ice cream is
to be tested for butter fat. We arc to
have no more emaciated ice cream.
Frozen pudding which shows signs OF
going into a decline is to be barred
Frozen SKINNED milk may not, hence
forth, be padded out with cornstarch.
It is welcomed news. Nothing is too
good for the summer girl. But why
stop with the ice cream? Make all the
dainties live up to their names. There
is the chewsome marshmallow. Who
knows if it ever saw a marsh? And
are the chocolate drops really dropped
or are they merely punched up? DO
we get properly sterilized water in our
watermelons? Are our Welsh rabbits
really imported or are they just COM
mon, lop-earned Dummies? This Is an
age of investigation, and it grows hard
err each day to fool the great public.
We must know what we eat.-Boston
