(|=/) COMPANY A Citizen Wherever We Serve ; SECOND SECTION ®l)c Hochdalc tt.ec.otd CONSTIPATION IS PLAGUE OF RACE Fiat Fruits and Vegetables— Properly Flavored The papers are full of statements and theories about constipation —one of the plagues of civilized people. What are the facts? A famous food biologist was asked to state the case and he summed it up in these few words: “At least 90 per cent of the constipation is due to alack of rough age in the diet. Eat bran, cereals, and fruits and vegetables, both raw and cooked.” He went on to emphasize how much more pleasant it is to eat these health ful foods provided their delightful tastes and flavors are developed by the use of sugar. He spoke of how hard it is to get children to eat cer eals, so beneficial in their diet, un less they are properly sweetened. He asked us to remember how many healthful fruits would be unpleasant to the taste without softening the fruit acids and developing their remarkable flavors with sugar. We should put it down as a safe rule of health that all human beings living in the civilized world today need plenty of fruit and vegetable filter in their daily diet. Sugar, by making nearly all such diets pleasant to taste and easy to eat, is the one dependable aid to the eating of rough age. There is no substitute for sugar in the normal diet. Sugar is Nature’s ideal flavor for healthful foods. Eat the things you need and enjoy them. The Sugar Institute. terdale, spent Sunday afternoon with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Bo hanan.
