it has been said of

more nutritive as well as money
value than almost any other food.
Fruits, in general, are fre-
quently divided into two classes;
they known as flavor fruits
when they contain 80 per cent
more of water and as food fruits
when the water content is less
than 80 per cent. Bananas are a
food fruit of the first order!
Ripe bananas are rich in carbo-
hydrates and furnish the body
with splendid energy values, with

Double Fuel Value
When fully ripened, this fruit
provides quick energy because a
certain amount of its sugars are
almost immediately absorbed by
the body. On the other hand, sev-

remaining sugars are completely
assimilated. Thus, eating bananas

Ideal for the Elderly
If elderly individuals are to
maintain top health, fruits should
be given a prominent place in
their diet. But many fruits are
avoided by individuals past mid-
dle age, either because their acid
taste is displeasing or because
they present difficulties in masti-
cation. Ripe bananas, however,
practically melt in the mouth. Be-
ing easily digested, they are a
fortunate choice for elderly per-
sons, providing necessary energy
and economy, bananas deserve to
! be classed as one of the staple
foods in every well planned
| dietary.
Questions Answered
Mrs.
and
G. R, McK.—When peas
beans cause discomfort, ow-
ing to their tendency to form gas,
they can frequently be eaten with-
out distress in pureed form.
| Miss M. L. A.—Both sweet and
white potatoes contain vitamins A,
B and C; but sweet potatoes are
a much better source of vitamin
A than white potatoes.

The Spirit Blooms
The world is not respectable; it
is mortal, tormented, confused,
deluded forever; but is shot
through with beauty, with love,
with glints of courage and laugh-

among the thorns.—George San-
