that gives good health TO you. Poor
yeast can never hope TO rise 10

to the latest dope tho faddists have

but a few OF all the things that
kraut will do for you. And with all
this within our grasp II seems an
awful blow the crop OF cabbages
should fail. but don't feel too much

kraut and revel IN good health you
still may gorge on pickles and thus
beautify yourself.
