Address him at Spadina House, Spadina Crescent, Toronto, Ont. - kz kook It is sometimes teh simple things in daily life that cause the most trouble from a health point of view. Some people are very careful about the in- gredients used in food and take pains to select the kinds of food that will Lest suit their palates and digestion. iowever, in the preparation of even the simplest kinds of food, care must be taken to avoid any dangers in the cooking process. Serious results may arise from poisons developed through chemical action taking place between the food and the receptacle in which it is contained. For instance, vessels made of galvanized iron should never be used for containing food materials on account of the solvent properties which many of those possess for zine. It seems well that the general public should be aware of this fact. An example of this has been recently reported when a sudden outbreak of illness among the inmates of a large institution occurred under the follow- ing circumstances: --About four hun- dred persons wer served at tea with hoto stewed apples; the remainder of the meal consisted of bread, butter and tea. Within a few minutes more than two hundred of those who partook of the stew complained of dizziness, sick- ness or a feeling of sickness, colic and tightness in th ethroat. There was somem diarrheea, but no double vision. The edical officer in charge of the in- stitution at once administered dozes of bismuth and chalk mixture, and within a short time most of the sufferers had recovered and were able to take food -again three hours later. Only ten persons were at all seriously ill, and all of them were able to carry out the ordinary work next day, so that evid- ently the effects of the poison scon wore off. The apples used had been freshly gathered and were stewed in large galvanized iron containers which were placed in iron steamers. The containers were used because it had been found on previous occasions that the apple became black if placed directly in the steamers. A chemical analysis o: some of the stewed apples remaining over from the meal showed that the; contained seven grains of zine sulphate to the pound. The dose of zinc sulphate which results in vomiting is 10-3(C grains, and each person consuming the stew may be assumed to have taker eighteen to twenty grains of sulphate of zine. It is well known that vegetable acids are liable to act on metals, and the cause of the outbreak in question har¢ ly seemed in doubt from the first. This incident indicates very clearl: the danger of food poisoning fron sources outside the food itself. Oi course the danger from contaminates food such as occurs in infected mea' hams soaked in brine, Cambride: sausages, etc. cannot be lost sight of J ust Arrived an assortment of Childrens HATS for Boys and Girls from 23c. to $1.00 { kk : fees ee at Made in Canada | Specialties Largest business of its kind in the world ' pe DAD ROWLAND, Retailer ROBT.

SPRING CULTIVATION It has been found by experience that the cultivation of the surface soil early in thes pring is a very desirable practice. many of the hardier weeds and grass- 2s which begin growth early, but it gives the air freer access into the soil, warming it up much more rapid- idly than if it were left compact, and thus favouring early growth of the plant, whether it be a fruit tree, bush ruit or herbaceous perennial. Not only does it destroy By cultivating the soil early in the spring, moisture will be conserved, and later in the seasen the moisture saved A o) Health and Toilet 4 n Fresh for Saturday i ORANGES BANANAS GRAPE FRUIT LEMONS CELERY TOMATOES HEAD LETTUCE : 4 : CABBAGE } Th NS \/ fie <P ee [= Lo pod © poly eps (gp) > a peng o Lien on = pat © ~t <D co i) ZH] es p=%3 =3 = pnt Loe) =} fy [g>) j=1 hu Tite PURE ALL PORK SAUSAGE .
