Daily Health Hint,

Candies and sweet articles are high
ly concentrated nourishment that
ought, when eaten, to be mixed with
coarser food in order to secure prop
er digestion. This kind of food is
more likely to turn acid on a weak
stomach than any other, while none
SO surely tends to produce constipa-
