Eat Necessary to Health.

Fat, even in considerable amounts.
is not q sign Of disease more than
once in hundred times, and is never
a cause of disease. On the contrary,
fat is one Of the wholesomest, most
necessary and most useful tissues in
the body. No tissue, not even the
most energetic muscle, OF the most
chemically active liver or kidney cell.
or most delicate nerve cell or sense
organ can possibly be healthy without
fat. And the more vitality important
and valuable an organ is, the more
certain it is to carry a constant stock
Of fat in It's substance, as margin Of
reserve.

Hollow In 4 Boiled Eaa.

J There is an air space in every egg,
hut We notice it particularly in
boiled one. because the contents have
been made, solid BY cooking and made
the hollow space more apparent. This
spaceis a provision of nature so that
the chick which grows within the
shell may have air to breathe from
the time it comes to life until it be-
comes strong enough to break through
the shell to the outside world. To
generate life in the egg it is neces-
sary that it be subjected to a GER
tain degree of heat for a period Of
81 days. When this is not done the
egg remains indefinitely in it's raw
state. When it is boiled the pocket
of air within the she'll, which would
have been used ul by the chick if the
egg had been set to hatch, begins to
fight for its space, and pushes the
boiled contents of the egg back, leav-
ing the hollow space.
