and is absolutely an unnecessary
source of trouble Beyond the
shadow of doubt if meat was
cent out" forever from the list of
foodstuffs the human race would
he a hundred times better off, and
especially so during the months
from June to November.
If every human being was COM
nslled to eliminate from his diet

months at the end of that time
four-ffths of the people would
ravAr 90 back to the meat-eating
babit They would find themselves
in 50 much better condition phys

ether way that they would be as
tonished and wonder why the hu-
man race ever turned into a lot of
Aesh- eating animals, for. after all,
81 is the animal instinct in us that
makes us like flesh as food.
We stand at the head Of all ma
+,ons as flesh eaters. There can
na no question in the minds Of
t5ose Who are in a position to
know that the excessive use of
meat is productive of an untold
amount of disease and misery It
Is also responsible for immensely
reducing the longevity of the race.
The list of diseases and ailments
brought on by flesh food eating
are many and serious. PERHAPS
the most serious in cancer Then
there is appendicitis, Bright's dis

Alcohol has always stood at the

Meat Is Absolutely Unnecessary
Meat-fesh foods absolutely
unnecessary for the human being
we have proof of this fact IN
dozens of different ways nave
made a careful study of the chem
istrv Of foods. and I worked it Out

have every reason TO believe lhaV
meat as an article of food is en-
tireiv unnecessary, and unless u =
used in great moderation and great
care is taken to select clean ana

great danger Of serious harm
These people who are now Great
ing 50 much disturbance and I'M
7appiness for themselves in their
efforts to battle against the high
prices especially of meat, are
wasting time and energy they
should dismiss from their minds
the question of meat and its prices
and busy themselves in making out
their list Of foods from other
sources.
] am convinced. from my expe-
rience. that the most overrated
foo6stuff we have before use in the
market is meat. Credit is given to

Here is a list for the belligerent
housewives. and they can select

necessary. Il will give the value
