The potato Is, according to the best medical opinion, the cause of many of the ills from which we suffer, and a foe to long life and good temper as well. "People, especially those leading sedentary lives, who wish to be healthy in body and sunny and alert In mind, should never eat potatoes," said a well-known physician, who is prevented by medical etiquette from giving his name, to a Dally Mirror representative. "Potatoes cause what is known as 'starch indigestion.' They contain about ninety-five per cent, of water, and when they have been assimilated the result is very little nutriment, after a big tax on the alimentary system, by reason of the difficulty the digestive fluids encounter in break ing down the tough cellulose walls In which the starch grains are enveloped. The effect of continually eating pota toes is chronic dyspepsia, resulting In wear and tear on the system, and lack of nutriment. Nervous worry and de pression follow, and life Is shortened. "My advice Is to cut potatoes right out of the diet. They are far more valuable for making motor spirit than for food, so why put them to such an unsuitable use as eating them? When a man is unwell general ,yv£ks—Msii flurtui*' "Slop -Z" Ifi his dietary is the use of potatoes, and rightly so, for they use up so much of his energy In the process of digestion "The Irish peasants live almost wholly on potatoes, and the effect is to mako them lazy and choleric. But when they leave Ireland and can af ford to feed more rationally, they de velop into bright-minded., energetic people. "To repair the ravages made in the human body by potatoes carrots should be eaten, for they stimulate the digestive processes." TOAST IS OF ANCIENT ORIGIN Seme Form of Drinking Salutation Common Far Back as History Records. The origin of health-drinking Is lost in the dimness of ancient years, but it was a general habit with the Romans, the Greeks and the Assyrians of earli est history, says a writer in the Illus trated Sunday Magazine. At Athens a very strict code of health-drinking etiquette was drawn up, and was known as "Phllothesi*," The form of the Qreek toast was simply, "I salute you, be happy!" and post-prandaL-ora tory was regarded as decidedly out of place. The Romans thought the ex clamation "Propino!"—"I drink jreur health"—quite sufficient. The word "toast" dates back to medieval times, when the loving cup was regarded as an indispensable fea ture of every feast. The cup would be filled to the brim with wine or mead, and a small piece of toasted bread floated on the liquid. The host would then touch the cup with his Hps and pass it to his guest of honor, seated on his right, who would drink and pass the cup to his neighbor, and so on until the cup had completed the circuit of the table, when the host would drink what remained of the wine and swallow the piece of toast. Bargains In Wedding Rlee. Ia a grocery of many signs the most conspicuous sign of all reads: "Wed ding rice three cents per pound." When questioned as to the particular quality of the wedding rice the grocer replied: "It's speckly." Then he un covered a box half filled with rice that showed a multitude of little black specks mixed with the white grains. "It would be too big a job to clean that for cooking," he said, "but It's all right for weddings, and It goes cheap. This Is a parish of marriages. That church across the street is the scene of more weddings than *ny other two churches In town, and two-thirds of the bridal rice la bought here." Leaves Pennies In Churoh. A Boston clergyman, commenting OD the large number of cents In the average church collection, said that when on a recent Monday he had offered a newswoman outside the sub way station a 6-cent piece in payment for a newspaper she threw up her hand, remarking: "Why is It that men never hare pennies on Monday morning? It Is the oaly day In the week I have trouble making change." "My good woman," replied the clergyman, the reason U that on Sun day they leave their pennies in chunk" BueonV Wii a Child Star.
