Is Raw Animal Food Hygienic!

The typhoid oyster has made in
diligence in blue points on the half
shell a real adventure for the epi-
cure who has not been immunized
with the prophylactic bacterin. Yet
milk is the medium of conveyance
for typhoid bacilli much more fire.
J QuentIy than oysters are, and few
who purchase and drink milk ever
give a thought to the possibility Of
contamination by unclean handling
at one point or another from cow
to table, or consider that milk fur
nishes an ideal culture medium for
any disease germs which a care
less or uncleanly handler may con-
tribute. Pasteurization destroys
any typhoid germs present, and
most other disease germs (Metch-
nikoff declared it did not destroy
tubercle bacilli,D and pasteuriZa
ton is as effective for oysters as
it is for milk
Experiments have clearly proved
that rabbits do not grow or thrive
as well on steriIized foods as on
raw food, and similar observations
have been made in the nutrition of
certain other animals. There is 4
great deal of testimony also that
infants and children do not thrive
and grow as well on steriiiZed milk
or on pasteurized milk as they do
on clean. pure raw milk. The
heating applied in sterilization or
in pasteuriZation seems to destroy
something indefinite that is present
in raw milk, and nowadays We call
q
whatever a Vitamin may be. II the
wholesomeness of the milk supply
is not made sure by certifcation,
and boiling or pasteurization is re-
sorted to as compromise with
uncertainty about purity, then it is
important to see to it that the in
FAINT or child depending largely
upon milk for nourishment shall
receive each day some fresh orange
juice, tomato juice, or any other
fresh fruit juice, to furnish the
vitamin lacking in the cooked milk.
The popular delusion that there
is some virtue in raw eggs not OBJ
tainable in cooked eggs must be
dismissed as groundless-
Certain individuals cultivate or
acquire an appetite for certain raw
or very rare meats, such as raw
beef in the "cannibal sandwich,
or raw ham in the Italian dish
called proscietta or something like
that, or uncooked or INSULT GENTLY
cooked sausage Since the COW is
the intermediate host of one spe-
cies OF tapeworm and the pig is the
host of the trichina
worm. these raw or insufficientIy |
cooked flesh foods may convey the !
larval forms Of the parasites to !

man. 1t is therefore wise to have
all such meats served well done.
Another practice which is ebjec-
tionable is the purchase of ground
meat in the raw state tsuch as
Hamburg steak 1t is safer 10
have the meat ground while you
wait, and Immediately delivered,
for when such meat stands for a
time in a shop there is always a
possible chance of contamination
with the bacillus OF botulism,
which may produce serious or fatal
illness in one who eats of the meat,
even though it has been cooked,
for the toxin or poison of the ba-
cillus botulinus is not destroyed
by cooking, though the germ itself
may be.
Another delusion sometimes sup
ported by old time nurses and doc
tors, is that raw beef juice has
some mysterious virtue not pos
sessed by the juice of cooked beef,
or that very rare or almost raw
beef has nutritive value not pos
sessed by thoroughly cooked beef.
This is wholly imaginary, and not
without danger. The cooking of
meat rather renders the meat more
digestbile and more nutritious.

When she really had a chance TO

frugal luncheon and laughed over
her blunder, the young man seem

Each day the mystery surrounding
the disappearance of Clarence A
Ruddell, aged 27, from Cromwell
Hall Sanatorium deepens. Where
Ruddell is. what he is doing and
what his movements were after his
departure from the sanatoTium.
neither the state police nor the po-
lice of the various cities in Connecti-
cut and elsewhere who are working
on the case. or his family can tell
but his family are certain OF but
one thing-that the young man is
alive.
To trace the path taken by the
Yale student is extremely difficult.
A man in a normal state may be de-
pended upon to act along certain
lines and it is possible to followthese
lines to a logical conclusion but with
a neurosis victim the case is differ
ent. He may be suffering with loss
of memory and unable to identify
himself.
Following his graduation from
Sheffield Scientific School, Mr.. Rud-
dell was with the Homestead plant
Of the Carnegie Steel Company.
whore he made a special study OF
steel processes and soon became
more or Jess of an expert After
serving in the army for about a year,
he was with Sargent and Company,
New Haven. Conn, and later held
responsible position with Billings and
Spencer Company, OF Hartford. Con-
necticut. which he was compelled to
leave on account of nervous break
down, due to overwork. Although he
willingly consented to enter the sana-
torium for treatment he remained
there but four days when he disap-
peared, and no trace of him has been
found since. While he had a small
sum Of money with him and a check
from his sister. Mrs. John 5. Clarke,
OF East Orange, New Jersey, which
has not been cashed, the amount was
not sufficient to sustain him and il
would be necessary for him to secure
