THE NEW EARTH 



their preparation, qualities and purity, largely 

 determine the character and fiber of the 

 people; the wider and deeper man's knowl- 

 edge of them, the nearer he may approach 

 the ideal. 



The study of foods and their values need by 

 no means be restricted to those who approach 

 from the scientific point of view. Nor need 

 one become one of those enthusiasts who con- 

 tinually do dwell on the border lines of the 

 cranks. The opportunity is now open for any 

 one, in town or country, who realizes that he 

 has been cheated a good part of his life out 

 of his fair share of service from the foods he 

 eats, to determine for himself where the 

 trouble lies; then to remedy the difficulty 

 in a simple, but permanent manner. The pres- 

 ent generation, and still more, the generations 

 to be born, owe a deep debt of gratitude to the 

 practical men of science who have simplified, 

 and at the same time enriched, the dietary of 

 the world.
