WHAT BOYS AND GIRLS SHOULD EAT.
In the way of food, bread and butter, well cooked meat, and fruits not too green nor over ripe, should form your principal diet. Pies and cakes are injurious, and if you eat them, do so sparingly. Never ask for a second piece.
THE STOMACH AND INTESTINES.
Fat meat and butter cause heat and often make the blood gross. Such diet is improper during warm weather and, therefore, we do not crave it. If we lived in the arctic regions, we would soon learn to drink oil like water, and to eat tallow candles as though they were pieces of crisp celery.
Highly seasoned food should not be eaten. It may be salted to suit the taste, but pepper is harmful.
