together to ascertain the explanation
of statement that when two glasses

on the beams of a balance scale and
a frog is then put in one of the YES

had his own explanation, and there

SO when you hear people say that
Coco-Cola is injurious, just ask
them to prove It, They can't. Nobody
can, because it Is not injurious. bu'

that it is not injurious by chemical
