NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1921 pect the modesty. which inspired his frank deckiration.. ‘When my own great-grandfather died of small-pox, more than a hundred years ago the authorities of the time refused permission to inter his body in any cem- etery, or to inter it by daylight, or to carry it along or even across any public highway. His sons dug his grave on a little hillock on his ‘own ‘farm, and laid him in it at midnight, without the assist- ance or attendance of a single neighbor. When 1 was a small boy a member of || the family was stricken with fever. Her calls for water were constant and piti- ful. But none was illowed hér, or only infrequent thimblefuls. Things are done differently, nowadays. We have acquired a wider knowledge and —what is the culmination of wisdom— have come to appreciate that the things we really know are, after all, only a minor fraction of the vastly more numer- ous things we don’t know. Really wise men are the very first to admit their ig- norance. They are much less. inclined to be dogmatic than shallowér ‘brained athateurs of narrower outlook. Moreover, every year sees fresh dis- coveries in the mystery of hwman nutri- tion and digestion, which tend to modify THE MYSTERY OF HUMAN NUTRITION AND DIGESTION. The Bulletin) jdiscomfort.

The textbook ement that raw starch is not digest- ible will now have to be changed, and persons who have feared a harmful ef- the presence of raw starch in allay all apprehensions. Perhaps that last remark about al- ving all apprehensions is a little broad. | There are exceptions to most rules.
