Food Protection.
o the Editor of The Star

To the Editor of The Star:
While the health people" are attending
to the screening of the market places
against germ carriers shall they not walk
within the doors and consider the condition
of the food that is unprotected on the
counters? Tempting rows of pastry, bread
and candy, and condiments are left uncov-
cred. The air around them sparkles in the
sunlight with dust and all manner of atoms
that fall constantly upon these articles of
food. Hour after hour persons in all stages
of health and cleanliness come and go and
bend and breathe over these provisions
They are many times handled, pinched and
poked TO test their quality. This food can
not be steriliZed-the pies. cakes, buns and
loaves. pickles and such. They must in the
nature of things be covered with miserable
germs and floating matter of the air, -
which are eaten. Some of the market mer-
chants say that their counters should be
protected from the dust but they also re-
ply, when asked why they do not cover
their provisions. Il would If the rest did
but If | put netting over my counter and
else did. l would lose custom

Gentle Spring.

1t is within the range of possibility that
connection may after while be drawn
between what some people call Spring
fever (meaning thereby that sensation Of
nothing wrong in particular, but that all
is not just right and that very prevalent
malady, dyspepsia. At any rate, physi-
clans who have used prescription COM
posed of a OF. Fluid Extract of Buchu,

Gentan Compound and Is oZs. water in
treating dyspepsia have found that the
medicine is not only wonderfully efficacous
in dyspepsia cases, but that it is also an
admirable Spring tonic.' and exactly
what many people need at this season of
the year. Most successful results are said
to follow the use of the preparation in
doses of d tablespoonful administered three
times a day. The prescription, which any
good pharmacist can put up, contains moth
