VIRTUES OF THE PINEAPPLE
veritabIe Medicine Is This Delicious
Fruit When Fresh-lts Value y
as a Digestive.

Fresh pineapple juice has great
value as digestive. A small amount
will digest considerable piece of
steak or any other animal tissue. Boil
ing, however, seems to kill the envy
mes in the pineapple. SO that after
canning it loses its digestive power.
The peculiar property of pineapple
juice makes it of value in many ways.
For instance, in diphtheria it is used
as a gargle, and the diphtheria mem
brane disappears like magic at it's
touch. 1t seems to have the power
of picking out all non-living animal
tissues and rapidly digesting them,
leaving all the living tissues. In cases
of quinsy, pineapple juice digests all
poisonous tissue, often giving quick
relief.
Sometimes it is not best to incise or
lance boil, and the yellow cap may
often remain upon the boil without
opening, holding back the pus. The
application of pineapple juice invari
ably establishes free drainage within
short time.
For administration in the stomach.
pineapple acts, adds the Family Doc
tor, as a preventive rather than a
cure. 1t cannot quickly correct an
acute attack of indigestion. though it
may prevent an attack.
