Ft r Fome three thousand years King iuvzar has had the sympathy of nil tender hearted folk. In that comfortable frame of mind which a dinner distended stomach induces, many gentle hearts Lave doubtless felt the panijs of pity for him whose sole and scanty diet, during that long hebdomadal exile, was the grass cf the field. It apjiears that this c nipassior. was altogether undeserved. For now conn- the "advanced" food experts to tell us that our baked, boiled and frid dietary is nothing less than an outraav upon nature, while the N'ebucliadnezzarian iii"iiu. though rt.-trieted in variety, was on the right track, and highly healthful. Ti.e raw -food idea is bv no means a new one, but it has seldom been expounded with more cogency audi point than by a writer in a late number ot Health Cu'.turt, who presents reasons why even a Thanksgiv ing diner should ask f..r no more than liberal helpings of tzrei-n leaves au naturel, fruits fresh from the tree, hard-shelled hickory-nuts, and good red wheat. The Health Culture writer's first argument is based on the fact that man. as everybody knows, is first cousin to the anthropoid ape: the undegenerate an thr.'poid (subsists on y upon fruits, nuts and succulent gnen leaves which grow close at hand: he is innocent of appendicitis, never has the gout, his natural rulers do not shudder at mention of perityphlitis. Therefore we who a'e -very tdightly changed from the semi-apes who ranged," as Kipling assured us. ought to forsake the disease-breeding cot.k-.-tuve, and return to the f olicsr.me ii -responsibility of a 'natural-food diet." This pounds as logical as any one could wish. The riiW-fiHid man doe- not, however, rest his case on the ?pM'al to physiological and anatomical testi , ; . . i i i ,.i iiKpy. lie calls ctiemiriry io ins am. ami snows thertbv. to his own satisfaction at least, that, in the procts- of cookiiig, profound and undesirable changes in the character of food- take place. I'roteid elements 'are coagulated by cooking ami thus rendered indi gestible." Certain carbo-hydrates become too easily di-'e-til l'-. and tic system i- oversiipplied. Some salt8 "arc so .t!'.cp d by coo'iirg a to beeoine entirely inert and u.-. ics s for food."

Rut i eith.-r the argument from the simian analogy, nor the learning displayed in discussing the chemistry of food, is likely to impinge upon the feminine mind with half the force'of this short but pregnant sentence: 'Tncooked food means the emancipation of women from the drudgery of the kitchen."

Some time ago an American woman living there begged of girls who proposed to cross the ocean to study not to go alone, and impressed upon their more mature sis ters the necessity of caution and circumspection.

Tyrant Bridget the Forty-Third, deposed from her cook-stove throne leaves never to return, and never to be succeeded. Annie the scullery maid, (die of the fishy eye, and a, . predilection for the butcher-boy bodeful of ill. follows in her wake. The kitchen isabolished. The stove is demoli.-hed. The pot and kettle hollowly murmur to each other as they together pass into the hands of the joyful jonk-man. The gas-bill is halved. The coal bill no longer terrifies. The penetrative aroma of boiled cabbage no more greets the nostrils of the home-coming flatite. The raw materials for the mill ennial u.eal, we take it, would be stored in an orna mental cabinet, neatly labeled with euch appetizing iitles as "Cracked Hutter-nuts," "Beardless Barley," "'Choice Red Wheat," ."Hand-Picked Rye!" Only a trice would be required to scatter upon the festal board these simple and savory dishes. It is claimed that the devotees of raw food number several thousands in the United States. (ieo.
