FOODS WHICH PRODUCE FAT.

| As to what foods produce fat and
what do not, the effects of various
foods upon different individuals vary
with the occupation and other con-
ditions of life and especially are in
fiuenced by the peculiar characters
ties of people. No two are alike in
their expenditure of muscular and
nervous energy, so no two will need
ment to repair the waste. A lawyer
or other brain worker or man of sed-
entary habits would find as much
nutriment in a meal of fish and a bis
cult as a field laborer would find
in a big dinner of pork and cabbage.
In general though, fat is produced
by such foods as bacon, fat beef, NUT
ton, rich milk, cream, all starchy vege-
tables, as potatoes, beans. rice, the
grains, butter, olive oil, cod-liver oil,
sugar in form of candy or sweetened
drinks; bread and butter, bread and
rich gravies, fat pork-in fact it may
be summed up in fat meats, sugar
starchy vegetables and grains. Drink
ing water copiously with meals will
induce fat IN some persons. Little e,i-
ercise, long sleeping hours, freedom
from worry and laughing are some Of
the helps toward getting fieshy.
diet of lean meat will make the
average person thin. This is the fav-
orite method of athletes in training
Fruits, acids and green salads, grapes,
apples, lemons, carrots, lettuce. dam
delions, spinach, fish, oysters and the
white or albumen of the egg, vension,
game, veal. are the foods for those
who do not wish to attain flesh. Co.
ing without breakfast, eating only one
heavy meal a day and avoiding rich
soups. cream, fat meats and starchy
vegeta bles and cereals seems to be the
popular way Of reducing ones flesh.
We advise, however, that dieting be
taken under a physicians direction
and only after a careful study of ones
own particular needs and habits.
