The important subject Of nutrition
has received much attention, but It IN
\ new suggestion that, besides correct
amounts Of protein. carbohydrate and
fat. the diet must contain q minute
proportion Of some mysterious sub
stance not yet understood. This idea
has been taken up by Professor Stepp
OF Giessen, In study Of the food of
mice. On dried mixture OF rice and
new milk the mice grew and flour
tshed, but after certain portions had
been dissolved out by alcohol and
ether. this food became 20 unsuitable
that animals fed on 1t soon died. Some
thing essential to life had been ex.
tracted. The extract included fats.
but no improvement. and the addition
of mineral salts had no effect In pre-.
serving life. It was concluded that
the essential substance must be a II.
poid present In milk but absent from
butter. The hpoids exist in the outer
protoplasmic layer OF cells, resemble
fats In solubility In alcohol, and usu-
ally contain phosphorus and nitrogen.
The theory was confirmed by adding
