comparative Food VaIues

toui aIues.
An English journal, The Lancet. in
discussing the comparative food value
of roast beef and turkey, says that it
may be said that weight for weight,
the flesh of the turkey is more nourish-
ing than that Of beef; but the latter is.
generally speaking, cheaper than the
former The moisture in beef. how
ever, exceeds the amount present in
the flesh of the turkey, and the latter
contains a better percentage of proteid
or fesh-forming substance. In either
case the percentage Of moisture is sell
dom less than 20 per cent.
In lean beef the amount of fat is
much the same as in a not too well-fed
turkey, but it must be pointed out that
the flesh of poultry differs from that
of beef and mutton in not having it's
muscular fibers permeated by fat, and.
moreover, the fbers in the flesh of the
fowl are short and rarely yield to the
disintegrating action of the digestive
processes. \ large amount of fat in
either case is apt to interfere with the
digestibility of the meat The fat of
beef is more digestible than the fat of
the turkey. The fat of birds, in fact
is harder, and owing to It's tendency to
become rancid. is unsuitable for the
dyspeptic patient.
The Lancet believes that the most
important difference from dietetic
point of view between beef and turkey
is that whereas beef contains high
percentage of eXtractive matters, tur-
key contains hardly any at all. The ex-
tractive matters in beef account largely
for its peculiar and marked flavor, and
owing to their absence in poultry gen
orally. and in the pheasant and part
ridge, the flavor of these meats is deli
cate. But there is no doubt that the
extractives of beef, as we'll as mutton,
are valuable. for not only are they
favoring agents, but they also act as
perhaps the most powerful stimuIant
to gastric digestion.

Deafness CannOl be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by the infiamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is indamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to Its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an nfamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure
