Families who use this form of cooking show their prema ture age. The vapor or steam of water, con densed and made palatable, is a solvent of old age depostis in the body. There is no reason why it should not be adopted as a drink. All mellow and sweet fruits that are juicy, are natural solvents of old age deposits. The strained juice of very sweet and mellow apples is excellent and effective if taken fresh every day. But all fruits that are fully ripe serve the same purpose; life and perfect heaUh lay in righ eating. As for me, I eat only be-, cause I want to live. As a result my body is not poisoned with de caying mailer aad surplus blood my arteries are as soft as a child's.

Old age deposits beginning at any time, even in youth, harden the nerves that support the vision; and they are the most delicate nerves in the body. Even where there is no other kind of trouble, the ad vancing years always play havoc with the eyes; and there is but one channel for their enmity, and this is in hardening the blood vessels and interfering with their nervous condition.
