It is well for some of you to know that I have an Of course 212 were barred for attempting to tell me their symptoms or get my opinion. 149 automaticaly sifted down to 84 good guinea pigs baa Pigs is pigs, and a matter of a guinea or thruppence doesn’t make them reminds me—the birds who raise the loudest squawks about my failure to answer their requests for one thing or another prove quite frequently themselves at fault, as we dig up the undeliverable answer From animal experiments we are led to infer that individuals who do not get sufficient vitamin A are likely to develop urinary calculus, kidney stone. Other factors may be concerned, of course, but there is considerable evidence that this same shortage of vitamin A may be an equally important factor of kidney stone in man. That's what I hoped the thousand human guinea pigs might settle for us, but 84 guinea pigs are not enough to settle Along with an optimal ration of vitamin A—that is, much more than is essential to maintain health—the victim of kidney stone or gravel should follow a diet which gives a preponderance of alkaline ash, and that implies excluding from the diet meats, fish, eggs, refined cereals, prunes, plums and cranberries; items which are particularly advisable are milk, peas, beans, all fresh vegetables particularly those edible raw and entirely, all fresh fruits and fruit juices or beverages particularly tomato and the citrus fruits (ex- cept prunes, plums and cranberries which happen to contain a type of acid not readily oxidized in them, as is the acid of other fruits). Items notable ‘as leaving a highly acid residue are oysters, oatmeal, egg yolk, chicken meat, rabbit meat, crackers, rice, peanuts. Items notable as leaving a highly alka- line residue are lima beans, dried beans, string beans, beets, raw carrots, Imonds, potatoes, cabbage, bananas, tomatoes and tomato juice, Unfortunately many of the foods containing the most vitamin A happen to be items on the acid side. But fresh milk, cream, butter, American cheese and cream cheese, carrots, escarole (endive, chicory greens), spinach, to- ° mato, orange, well ripe yellow bananas, green peas, green peppers, are good If glass is eaten unknown to oneself will it cause some serious result?
