AD REM (TO THE PURPOSE: TO THE POINT —VERY MUCH). DEDICATED TO DR. WILKIN, Educational Department, Wellington,. By CHAMPION. CONTRIBUTED BY ALEXANDER BRYCE, M.D., D.P.H. (Camb. 1914). MY DLAR FKOI'LE,— Will you kindly follow Dr. Bryce on " Digestion of Bread." " In ideal i ircuuistances a fa.riy proportion | ,■1 a. given quantity ol bread is digested ' iii tho mouth. tstarch or carbohydrate i is qu;iu incapable of absorption until it i a.is i,cMi rendered soluble, and this is j effected by the action of saliva, which louveris it first into dextrin and subse- j quenily into maltose. Pavlov demonstrated that the chewing of fresh, moist bread produced no secretion of saliva wv-r.h mentioning, but dry bread caused | the saliva to flow in large quantities. | Stale bread, crust of bread, toast, zweib,k (double toasted bread), and plenty of biscuit compel imriy prolonged niasti-c-atiuti with plenty of saliva.'while soft bread is usually bolted with no producMfin i: digestive juice ot any consequence. 'On reaching the stomach this digest.ou of tlie starch by saliva still goes on until it has been neutralised by the outflow ol gastric juice m from half to throc-yuartera ot an hour, and tlu-n the protein ie attacked by the pepsin and hydrochloric acid. Bread provokes a secretion of five times more pepsn than an equivalent quantity of miik, and four times more than meal, but a much smaller quantity of hydrochloric acid, so a*; to interfere as httie as possible with the alkaline saliva. Caslnc juice is only fable to digest proteins, and in about two hours and a-half a slice of bread i« ready to leave the stomach. The j various digestive fluids of the intestines so< n complete the digestion of the starch ana protein und the small Quantity of lat contained in bread, and then absorp- j tiori into the blood takes place. UP TO THIS POINT THERE IS PRACTICALLY NO DIFFERENCE BE- i TWKKN WHITE AND WHOLEMEAL KKEAt). BUT THE SUPERIORITY j OF TliK FORMER NOW BECOMES i APPAKF.N'T. IT IS EASY TO j UNDERSTAND THAT NO MATTER HOW WKLL DIGESTED AN ARTICLE OF LIFT MAY BE. IT IS QUITE INCAPABLE OF NOURISHING THE i BODY UNTIL IT HAS BEEN" AR-<Oi-:BFJ\ AND IX THIS CONNECTION WHITE BREAD IS PARAMOUNT. FOR ONLY THREE PER CENT. OF ITS CARBOHYDRATES. TWENTY PER CENT.

CHAMPION is in accord with the eminent .Dr. Bryce that bread made from his MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR is paramount, if you are anxious for healthy longevity; if not, go in for the bread that has so much cellulose or indigestible woody fibre in it. But I feel sure, after reading Dr. Bryce'a able treatise, you will exclaim, "CHAMPION MUSCLE - RAISER FLOUR FOR EVER!" You can quite understand why our soldiera i fought with such •vigouT.-as they were trained on White Bread from Champion Flour. I have spoken with confidence, 25/7/21. V., AUCKLAND.
