THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH IN THE KITCHEN
Addressing the American Chemical Society at Chicago. Prof. Sherman, of Columbia. University, said that chemists offer the prospect of men and women adding 10 per cent, to their years, so that those who were formerly able to reach the Biblical age of 70 years can be assured of living another seven years. Not- only is lifo prolonged but it is increased in vigour. Milk, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, play an ever increasing part in scientific diet, replacing the old-fashioned reliance on bread, moat, potatoes, and sugar. Teeth and bones, needing calcium, can obtain it if an adult takes a pint of milk a day, and a child a quart. Half the daily meals consumed should be taken from milk, eges, fruit and vegetables, and the other half anything the individual fancies. The legendary fountain of youth is now in the kitchen. The waters of the fountain are provided by the chicken, the cow, the orchard, and the vegetable garden. Cabbages and peas will save civilisation.
