found 'hem all In sV>od condition and
the work well and neatly done. We
hay?? not made a thorough Investiga?

empt Lee county from that seotlon

We beg le.ive to report to this

Scientists Have DIsTCirm| \Uiy Tiny
Prove Irritating toJdnny Stomachs.
Woods Hutchinson, M. D., eohtrib?
utes to MctMure's Magasine for Sep?
tember an article separating three
classes of "pQison foods," common^'
ised In small quantities without
harmful effect, from the comestibles
that* form -tapirs of diet. Indeed, I
some dbn^bination of the few kind?
of mammalian meats, mais<. wheat,
rice, butter, oil. sugar and salt, ??two
thirds of the money expended for food
by every c+vifl/.ed. race nnd most bar
baric ones'' goes to purchase:
Science has, of course, long ago
vindicated the good sense of human?
ity's selection by showing thiz they
contain the highest degree of fuel
value, digestibility, and freedom from
injurious results that Is to bt bad for
the price?in *mos: case, ip.lecd, at
any price. *l
The virulent poison of tie? cassava
root can bo extracted, an !" Us * latch
,is perfectly edible. Tho tubera' of the
potato also . contain a modicum of
poison, which 'cooking eliminates.
These roots represent aj small group
of "poison foods."
The second and main group has
but just been "found out," scientifi?
cally speaking, although human stom?
achs long ago detected Its influence,
Peas, beans, chestnut's, peanuts and
all nuts, l^roAvn bread and cheese pos?
sess nutritive value at least equal to
the staples, and have, therefore, been
much affected by the faddists. Of
these Dr. Hutchinson say's:
Studies made from another point of
view in the laboratories are begin?
ning to throw a flood of light on the
reason for the failure of these fqods
promptly to meet with favor on the
part of the public, revealing the sur?
prising fact that' m?ny articles of
food contain, Combined with their
high percentage of nutritive value,
substances which are irritating to the
stomach, disturb digestion, or may.
even behave as active poisons.
As for the, bean?Boston take no
tice?"coiled amid Its rich store of
protend and fat, like guardian dra?
gon? lie an aromatic oil and a bitter
alkaloid, both poisonous to the sus?
ceptible stomach in small amounts,
and to the average one In larger," ^f
some one could invent ^a process of
surely extracting its poisonous ele?
ments he would not only confer a
general benefit, but would save many
devoted lives of misguided diet re?
formers and vegetarians. The banana,
rich in, sugar and starch, even at its
prpper ripeness has an irritant in its
flavoring essences. Why nuts can 'nev
-
er form a staple Is thus indicated:
An irritating principle has been
found present in all nuts, partly in
the kernel itself and partly in the
skin which surrounds the kernel,
which, eveni In cases of very moderate
amounts. Is a very decided Irritant to
the digesMve canal. Peanuts?which,
of course, are not nuts at all. but the
seed* of a species of pea whlqh Is ar?
tificially caused to develop under?
ground?are particularly strong in
these poisonous extracts.
The third class belong to the order
of "casual- criminals;" and that is,
when eaten with due moderation they
are of high** practical value as gar?
nishes?most fruits, especially straw?
berries, several varieties of common
vegetables, and some "ea foods." The
tomato, whlph has the Worst popular
reputation, "seems comparatively free
from actual offense." Of coffee and
tea much depends on^the mode, of
'preparation and the amounts drunk,
but "few discoveries of the wit of
man have added more to the comfort1
and happiness^ of-life and less to Its'
series than tea and coffee."?New
