What was probably the most re-

vessel overland. IN which she wen;

DIET AND NUTRITION.
Some Valuable Facts About the vari-
ous Eoods We Eat

MIX IL the only one food that com
bines In itself all that is necessary
for human nourishment. All others
have an excess or lack of something
that the system needs: hence mixed
foods are desirable. Scientists have
calculated that the following Is n
reasonable mixture: Lean meat fifty
parts. milk seventy. bread sixty, pota-
toes thirty butter six. and water three
quarts daily. The amount OF water
seems large, but as n matter Of fact
the average person takes three pints
OF water with what he regards as sol
id food. For instance, beefsteak f.
two-thirds water. dried beef one-half
water. bread two-thirds or more.
There are fifteen chemical elements
found In the body. Two of these. oxy.
and water we take in. OF the others
carbon Is the only one that we re-
quirc In large quantity. An individual
OF 100 pounds should contain thirty
four pounds Of carbon In his makeup.
The food must supply this carbon. and
we secure IL IN vegetables and grain
by what are called the carbohydrates.
which form two-thirds to three
fourths of he grain. and smaller
proportion OF vegetables and fruits
In meats the protein is the chemical
substance Of chief value. BY protein
are meant the heterogeneous portions, the
albumcn Of the eggs, the curd Of the
milk, the lean part Of the meat and
the gluten Of -four and cereals. A 1T
tie less than one-ffth of the avera re
meat Is protein. available for building
muscle. Gluten Is chemical com
position of carbon, nitrogen and oxy.
gen. To appreciate what It Is as
substance for eating. take few ker.
nels OF raw wheat and chew them up
finely. The starch will dissolve away
almost inperccptibly. and there will
remain In .be mouth a gummy sub
stance that can be chewed almost
indefinitely like bit OF chewing gum.
This II the gluten or muscle building
part of the -four
Fat is an important article OF diet.
Probably butter Is the best form, but
any healthy animal fat Is satisfactory.
IL gives energy TO the eater, but may
lie used In quantity only by one who
