ONION EATERS GOOD HUNDRED

IF people would eat more onions,
said the man with the smothered beef
steak, the world might have to hold
its nose. but the population of 81.
Louis would be a great deal healthier.
Most of us eat too much meat and
grease and butter and bread and not
enough vegeta bles, and the conse-
duence is our systems get clogged up
with grease and starch. our livers get
out of order and we grumble at our
wives and scold our children and fuss
when the baby cries and quarrel with
the street car conductors. and get into
rows at the office and lose our jobs.
not because we are naturally sulky
or ouarreIson1e but because We are bill
fous. Why are we bilious? Because
we don't eat onions. You never saw a
dvspeptic man eating onions. He
thinks they are poison, but. in fact,
they are the medicine that he most
needs.
Whenever you see an onion eater
you see a whole souled, oE@n hearted,
jolly good fellow. who knows what he
ought to eat to keep him good humor-
ed Talk about the staff of life, why,
bread is only a crutch. There is more
nourishment in an onion than there is
in a roll. The onion lovers keep the
world moving, to say nothing Of pro-
viding il with much Of its fun. st.

EscaI1oped oysters Escalloped
