V A
Food Value of Vegetable*.
Tomatoes contain Iron and assist tc
rouse torpid liver. Lettuce has a sooth
ing, quieting effect upon the nerves
and is a remedy for Insomnia. Celery is
an acknowledged nerve tonic. Onions
are ulso a tonic for the nerves. Po
tatoes should be eschewed by those
who “have a horror for getting fat
Spinach has medical properties equal
to the moat Indigo of all blue pills evei
made. * Parsnips, it Is contended b>
scientists, possess almost the virtues
claimed for sarsparllla. Asparagus Is
efficacious In kidney ailments. Cu
cumbers contain an acid that is helpfu
)p some cases of dyspepsia, but be
ware of them it not fresh. Cabbage In
Holland Is regarded as something of n
l!«od purifier. Parsley will assist goo3
digestion, like cheese and nuts. Pum
pkins are an ingredient in a certain
patent mediclre that is guaranteed tc
.•are quite a variety of the ailmen*s
that flesh Is heir to, but the world Is
increasing in Inhabitants who do not
believe all they hear. Rhubarb, cel
ery, lemons, sour oranges and all other
tart fruits are especially beneficial to
those suffering from rheumatic trou
bles. Onions, celery and turnips re
lieve nervous disorders, onions being
accounted the best nervine known. Di
gestion Is promoted by the use of onions
tomatoes, olives, garlic and peanuts
Rlderberrles are considered beneficial
to those suffering from dropsy. Spinach
and onions relieve gravel. Carrots are
good for asthmatic patients. Turnips
onions and salt relieve scurvy. And
there Is scarcely anything better than
lemons to brenk up a cold, to relieve
feverish thirst, bllliousness, low fe
vers. liver troubles and rheumatism
Grape Juice ae a Beverage.
It is a deplorable fact that the ave
rage Individual always believes that
the more expensive an article the more
valuable It becomes. In the matter ol
food and drink the opposite condition
really prevails In many oases. Take
the various drinks, for Instance: pure
water Is unquestionably the best drink
under nearly all circumstances. Next
to water, however. In value for drink
ing purposes, are the various unfer
mented fruit Juices. These could be
supplied very cheaply, but usually they
are extremely difficult to secure. Take
cider, for Instnnce: about the easiest
and cheapest fruit juice to manufac
ture, and one will ordinarily have to go
to considerable trouble in order to
secure this healthful drink, and if you
dare to ask for It where expensive
drinks are served, the tone and manner
of those.In charge will quickly indi
cate that they consider It a “cheap
drink” sind do not keep it. It is a
cheap drink, but that does not pre
vent it being the best. Unfermented
apple Juice Is one of the most benefi
cial drinks. In many cases It has been
known to remedy very serious trou
bles, It Is almost a certain means of
arousing a torpid liver to activity, and
if one’s stomach does not furnish a
sufficient supply of acids to properly
digest food, it is of special advantage
It Is wpll, however, to remember that,
what 1s sAd for cider on the market
at the present time is usually a mixture
of water and acids. These drinks are
of course, deleterious In their Influ
ence. Be sure that you secure good
cider. It Is a drink that can be speci
ally recommended. Grape Juice is also
especially valuable and Is really as
much of a food as a drink when pule
and properly bottled to prevent fer.
mentation. The nourishing qualities it
contains are almost equal to milk. It
is especially valuable to weak stomachs
and for Invalids, but anyone can be
bonefltted by using grape juice when
a fruit Juice of some kind is needed.
It would be well to note, however, that
one cannot drink grape juice as freelj
as water even though our friend Wm
J. Bryan did much to bring It before the
public.
Carg of the Skin.
It is not always because the com
plexion Is naturally bad or that women
are eating of things they ought not tha1
the skin of one’s face becomes wrinkled
pimply or dotted with other blemishes
Much of the skin trouble may be
avoided and overcome by proper at
tention to washing the face. Ol
course, all the water in the world
will fail to blot out those lines which
comes from scowling or other bad
facial habits, but water properly ap
plied will do a vast deal toward soften
ing the skin and eradicating eruptions
•lust before retiring the face should be
taken In hand. If there be any erup
tions on the skin of the face rub Into
the skin on these places a little pure
olive oil, using wjth It a little pure
soap. Rub the face thoroughly when
thus washing, then rinse In hot water
following by another rinsing In cold
water. In drying the face use a soft
lowel, rubbing the skin upward and
bai l ward through the hair. Then take
\ very small portion of cold cream and
ru ■ thoroughly into the skin. If It is
desiled to gradually whiten the skin
instead of the cold cream rub the face
v lh a mixture of 10 drops of benzoin
i.i r. pint of cold voter. This treatment
is a simple one, Taut If women would
follow it carefully and thoroughly they
will see a decided improvement in the
texture of the skin of the face, at least
In the course of a month. It may he a
hard thing to say, hut it is a sad truth
that the majority of women do not
wash the face thoroughly once In a
dozen times, and then she dries It ten
derly, as if fearful that she would rub
•ff some of the skin. Friction with
Plenty of hot water and good soap will
do more for the skin of the face than
all the complexion pastes and powders
ever manufactured.
TI. R. P. Will you kindly tell me the
cause of grease eonstnntly working Its'
way out of the nose and forehead and
treatment?
Answer: Pause is super-active con
dition of Pebasceous glands. Would
ask if you are a blbnd or brunette, a.?
nature has provided brunettes with
glands that secrete more sweat and
sebaceous material than the blondes
A further example by the brunette
having thicker and more abundant
hair. Treatment would be to endeavor
to carry off the uflous waste materia
through the channels. The most log
ical way would be by diet, internal
bathing and more perfect elimination
of the entire body. Avoid pastry, rich
and greasy foods. The treatment will
be slow but sure. Some form of ex
ercise that will stimulate the liver is
necessary and valuable.
