For full particulars apply to ROBERT GARDNER, Lambton Quay, Sole Agont for Wellington AN EMINENT PHYSICIAN ON " SWEETMEATS." SWEETS are the necessities of childhood and youth, hence Providence has wisely implanted in the young an almost insatiable desire for sugar. Without" this element largely mingled with its food, the healthiest born infant would die in a month. In vain would it nestle on its mothers bosom, in vain its exposure to the warming sunshine, and in vain the softest blankets and warmest furs to encase its body, for the warmth which sustains human life comes from within, must be generated by the internal combustion of carbonaceous food as found in all sweets and fat. It is the most nveterate of all prejudices in civilized life that sweets hurt children ; on the contrary, they are a prime neceßsity, and to deprive them of their candies, if pure, is barbarism — W.
