Food and Digestion.

One Of the biggest mistakes about
food which people make is to forget
that the true value of food to anybody
Is the measure Of it's digestibility. Half
a pound OF cheese is vastly more nour-
ishing, as regards its mere compost
ton, than half a pound of beef; but
while the beef will be easily digested,
and thus be of vast service to us, the
cheese is put out of court altogether
for ordinary folks by reason of its in
digestbility. We should bear this rule
in mind when we hear people compar-
ing one food with another in respect Of
their chemical value.

That it is naught for any man to give
