A PLAIN MAN’S DIET.
“ How can we keep our teeth il wo give them no work to do? It a child cannot take pleasure in good crusty bread and butter he must ho ill. It is in regard to the food of the growing human that reform is urgently needed. It should he simple. Sugar should he used sparingly; sweets should lie haired. and farinaceous food limited almost wholly to well-baked. crusty bread of sound flour. The more butter the better, and raw vegetable food in the shape of frfiit and salad should no given in abundance, lhe ignorant will deem this an absurdly rigorous diet, hut the gain in health from sound teeth and digestion, freedom irom devastating adenoids and kindred maladies. and the feeling of exuberant wellbeing, far out-weigb the pleasure derived from tine temporary tickling of tlie palate by unwholesome, luxurious foods.”— -Dr. Harry Campbell.
