'" Every now and then someone comet
out with statements that upset all
our most cherished Ideas about diet.
We have come to the conclusion, per
haps that to flctcherize Is the thing,
Or, we may have convinced ourselves
, after a course of reading that - vege
tarianism la the only system. Another
so-called authority may have con
vlnced us that we must say ft long
farewell to plea and rakes and sauer
kraut and boiled dinners. Then
presto, comet another authority and
. informs us that all the other author
. Hies are wrong.
Which leads us up to a rousing
welcome to the vlewt of. Dr. Woods
Hutchinson, whose name figures oft
en In the magazines that like to tell
us what and how and where and when
to eat.
. . Dr. Hutchinson says the simple life
o far aa it pertains to what we eat
la a falacy. He aayt late dinner do
not put dark rings around your eyet
or unattractive little mounds of flesh
under your vest.
'r. "Eat everything you like," says he,
blest him. "At for myself, I like
everything and eat everything. Meat
la the main thing. We must have lots
of meat Vegetables . and , fruit - are
balancers, and of these balancers pie
la the most soluble and readily burn-
tble. It ftts perfectly into the scheme
of healthy eating." - ,
' But ; '.
"The only kind of pie that Isn't
good Is the kind that mpther used to
make. Maybe you remember that
soggy, substpitla! . undercrust that
melted, and yet did not melt, in your
mouth. It was a crust whose sticki
ness mother had absolutely water
proofed against the attacks of the di
gestive Juices. But the modern pie,
with Its crisp, starchy crusts Is en
tirely different." , , v
' Here Is what Dr. Hutchinson con
siders a eood days' eating for ft man:,
. Breakfast Bacon, and eggs or ham
and eggs, or meat hash of some kind.
fruit and milk and tUKar and cream.
Some cereal might be . put in the
cream to give It a pleasant, appear
ance. ! And tea or coffee.
Midday A few oysters or fish with
some cold meat or an omelet, a
cheese preparation with bread, butter
and potatoes, fruit and pie or cake.
Dinner Soup as ft' prollmluary.
It smelltf pleasant and starts the ap
petite Juices. Then - some oysters,
fish or other light substance as an In
troduction to the real meal the roost
beef, mutton, chicken, turkey or wha'
not. Fruit vegetables and pies.
Then the doctor - knocks another
cherished idea. He says that the old
Idea of simple eating that Is, not
eating too many different things at
one sitting Is wrong. Eat as many
different kinds of food as you can lay
your hands on. And
He says a lot of other things which
we won't repeat for fear you, gentle
reader, can't digest It all at one
sitting. !
