Fax Pokk as Hum ah Food.— “ A fat bog is
the very quintcscence ofscrbfula and carbonic
acid gas, and he who cats It must not expect
thereby to build up a sound physical organism.
While it contributes beat, not the twentieth part
of it is nitrogen, tho base of muscle.” The
Scientific American cprdiallyjcndorses the above
sentiments as being sound practical truth, and
soys—“ Put pork was 'designed for hu-;
man food. It is material fox! breath and noth
ing more. See Liebig and other organic chem
ists and physiologists. It ihakes no red meat
or muscle. The prize fighter is not allowed to
cat it. All that is hot consumed by the lungs,
remains to clog the body with! fat.” t
