But it-is full of truth, and if we will substitute the bread box for the pill box, the skillet for the mortar, the kettle for the crucible and look for our medicines in our food pantry, as we will be beter off. T once saw a doctor’s prescription translated from Latin into English. There were four chemicals in the pr scription—-and not one of them which, under some homely name, was not to be found in any woman’s pantry.

Now all this s said apropos of that well known Spring malady—const pation, which, unfortunately for man is a malady of Spring, Summer, Winter and Fall, To keep in health, food must be eaten and the body must assimilate what is necessary for its needs.

Bofled onions, beet top spinach, kale, chard, dandelion, string beans, contain residue material that cannot be digested and remains to stimulate the intestines. It is abso- lutely necossary that there be residue in the food. The peelings of certain fruits, as apples, grapes, prunes and vegetables like heans, peas, celery and those others just listed above, supply this. Natural and unrefined foods will do away with the necessity for laxatives. 1f constipation has been present for 20 or 30 years do not think a diet containing much fruit and vegetables will conquer it in a week.
