The natural sugars of fruits will serve today as they did cen turies ago. You will get all the sugar you need in this way. The Allies do it now. England, which before the war used more sugar than we did, has but two pounds per head a month now; France one and a half pounds, and Italy only one. Show yourself a patriotic American and use less than your ration. This is but a slight sacri fice as compared with all that the Allies are doing. Do it yourself.
