Potatoes an Unhealthy Food.

John Gilmer Speed, Dr. Cyrus Edson (ex- president of the New York Boara of Health) and Mrs. 8S. T. Rorer learn- edly discuss “The Potato as a Daily Diet.” in November Ladies’ Home Journal, and pretty conclusively prove that the humble but popufar tuber Is net a healthful article of food. Mr. Speed asserts that the potato as a food is not nearly so valuable as we have very generally esteemd it to be. It is quite deficient in nitrogen, and as a sole diet is therefore unsuitable. It is hard to digest and therefore should he partaken of very sparingly by all save those who live active lives out-of- door. .. . The potato provokes our great national ailment, dyspepsia, and the sooner the consumption of the mealy tubers begins the sooner will the dread fangs of the dyspepsia ap- pear.

Dr. Edson in a rejoinder to Mr. Speed writes: I must quite agree with Mr. Speed in his condemnation of the po- tato. I am sorry to have to say any- thinz against the humble tuber, but the truth, especially when it is scien- tific, and more especially medico-scien- tific, must be told. It is certain no one

assurance that it will do him no harm, . « « The practice of feeding pota- toes to infants and young children canunt be too severely condemned, A potato diet may not kill them outright at once, but it is certain to injure their digestive organs permanently and ef- fectually, so as to make their lives a

burden to themselves and those who are brought in contact with them. Dr

Edson also contends that the potato is very deficient in nutritive quafities, and has less value as an article of food than most other vegetables and cereals.

Mrs. Rorer writes: I am not u« po- tato prohibitionist, but I firmls believe that potatoes should be served only with strongly-concentrated notrogen- ous food, such as roasted beef, or, for the vegetarian, with beans, peas or

lentils. Not WHAT WE SAY, but what Hood’s Sarsaparilla Does,

GROWN-UP SCHOLARS,

An English Initrveior Whose Paptts Are

Auxious to Learn.

An English professor, who sat up in london some time ago with a view 9 giving instruction to people who were beyond school age, has made a success of it. HBRefcrring to his cholar-, says: “Frankly, nearly all my pu pils are women, and in a large numbe1 of cases women who have found them selves getting independent and ambi tious, and have desirous af shining in intelligence. I can give you, an instance, many young women connected with the stage. These, hav- ig begun in the very humblest capac ilies on the boards have revealed gen- uine talent, and have then encountered the great stumbling-block of want 060i education. I could name to you eral girls earning very large salaries who, when they came to me, could only just scrawl their names in a mechant- cal way. But the strangest @bout most of my women pupils is that, although wher. they come to me then can neither read nor write, they can generally speak what is called the ‘Queen’s Enz- lish’ very passably indeed, for they have learned it like parrots, this espec- izlly applying to stage folks.

“And now, as to the more romantt “art of my profession, I have an aston- ishing number of young married pupils, who, having comfortable homes, and even splendid ones in some instances, have set themselves to be worthy of their surroundings. Most of these girls have worked in the very humblest ca- pacities, but have been lucky enough t>» marry almost brilliantly. One most rromising pupil I have, and a very beautiful woman to boot, was a folder at some printing works, and has mar- ried an Irish viscount, who seems to idolize her. Another pupil of mine is the wife of a colonian government of- ficial and a baronet. She was, not long ago, a housemaid at a watering-place lodging-house. The wife of an emin- ent lawyer was, two years ago, work ing in a laundry. She is not a girl, but a mature woman, and is certainly the cleverest pupil I ever had.

“I have an ex-Australian storekeep- er and publican, of nearly 60, as a pu- pil, and never did one work harder. He is now so far educated that he has become an honored county magistrate. I have a pupil of over 50 now, an Ameri- cen, who, having made a fortune, came over here for the double purpose of be- ing educated and of seeing the coun- try. Most of these mature pupils are infinitely more diligent and tractabh than are any young ones I ever had.”

“My six-year-old danghter, Bella, was afflicted with eczema for 24 months, the princi- lseat of eruption being behind the cars. tried almost cvery remedy I saw advertised

bought innumerable medicines and +oaps an took the child to medical specialists in skin dis- eases, but without result. Finally, a week ago I purchased a box of Dr. Chase’s Ointment, an the first application showed the curative effect of the remedy. We have used only one-sixth of the box, but the change is very marked, the eruption has all disappeared and I can confi- dently say my child is cured. (Signed)

A face that was a scab from forchead te chin cured in 10 days.

On behalf of the Fred Victor Mission Bible Class I wish to express our gratitude to you for the box cf Chase's Ointment which you sup- plied in aid of our charitable work to the infaut child of Mrs. Brownrig, 162 River street. Ten days ago the child was awfully afflicted with scald head, the face being literally one ecab trom forehead to chin, and in that brief time a complete cure has been affected. Surely your gift wae worth more than its weight in gold.
