Salads and Health Vitambines.

I'm almost every important maga-
zine during these days, some refer
ence is to be found to vitamines. A
few years ago no one ever heard of
them. Why this interest? Why the
sensational development of topic of
this kind?" asks Arthur Mize, of Mize
Grocery Co.
1T is because vitamines are essen
tial to growth, health and life itself,
and the American people being a pro-
gressive and intellectual people, are
deeply interested in all three. In
reality the scientists themselves do
not even know what vitamines are.
They know where they are to be
found and how they may be handled,
what they will accomplishe when adj
mlnistered to the human body.
Fortunately for all, these vita
mines are found in unusual abund-
ance In the materials commonly used
for making salads and they are there
present in their various forms. Peo-
pie who eat literally of various kinds
OF salads are bound to secure in guam
titles sufficient for normal bodily
needs these substances which are so
essential to health, growth and life.
Inc fresh fruits and vegetables and
the same products, when canned in
the scientific way, the celery, lettuce
and greens all contain these vita
mines and will furnish them in proper
form to the human system when serv-
ed as salads.
The thought on the part of the
housewife should be to make salads
part of every important meal. Once
day at least is desirable and twice
