this reason should be taken by melancholy persons. It is good against nervous headache, flatulence, and hysterical affections. It is antiseptic. Walnuts.

The walnut has been called vegetable arsenic because of its curative value in eczema. An oil obtained from the kernel has been found of great service when applied externally in cases of skin diseases. The leaves of the walnut tree are also used for the same purpose, both externally and internally. One ounce of the leaves to 12 tablespoonfuls of boiling water make a tea, half a tea-cup of which may be taken several times a day. The affected parts should also be washed with it.

Walnuts, to be well masticated, have been given to gouty and rheumatic patients with great success. About one dozen per day is the quantity prescribed. It is possible that herein lies the secret of the fact that our ancestors invariably took walnuts with their wine.

The green, unripe walnut is useful for expelling worms.

Wheat.

Whole wheat is a perfect food. In the form of white flour, however, it is an imperfect, unbalanced food, on account of its deprivation of the valuable phosphates which exist in the bran. Rickets and malnutrition generally are the outcome of the habitual use of white flour, unless the loss of mineral matter is counter balanced by other foods.

Only the very finest wholemeal, such as "Artox," for example, should be used for making bread, etc. The ordinary coarse wholemeals are apt to produce intestinal irritation.

Cracked wheat, soaked overnight in water and boiled for a couple of hours, is a favourite prescription of American writers for habitual constipation. It may be obtained at most large "Food-Reform" stores.

Bran Tea.

Nervous or anæmic persons will derive great benefit from a course of bran tea. It is made as follows:—To every cup of bran allow 2 cups distilled water. Well wash the bran in cold water; it is generally full of dust. Put in a saucepan with the cold distilled water, cover tightly, and boil for thirty minutes. Strain, and flavour with sugar and lemon juice to taste. Take a teacupful night and morning.

Readers of the Healthy Life Booklets will doubtless be glad to know that only those advertisements of foods that can be conscientiously recommended are accepted. This necessarily limits the number of advertisements, but has the advantage of making them really serviceable.

The publisher has no pecuniary interest in any of the firms mentioned, and therefore feels quite free to give his testimony to the worth of their goods.

"Artox" Flour.

This is so finely ground that, although wholemeal, it may be used in the manufacture even of sponge cake, while for bread it is unsurpassable.

Digestive Tea.

Tea-drinking is considered to be very injurious, but the habit is difficult, apparently impossible, for some people to overcome, and therefore the Universal Digestive Tea supplies a real need. A tea minus tannin is a boon to everyone, but especially to the sufferers from dyspepsia and nervous complaints.

Fry's Cocoa.

This cocoa has stood the test of time and chemists for so long now as hardly to need further testimony as to its genuineness.

International Health Association.

They supply thoroughly pure foods, and readers will do well to take advantage of their offer to send samples to test for themselves.

Mapleton's Nut Foods.

Their Nutter is quite the best vegetable cooking fat on the market, and makes excellent pastry. A pie-crust made of Nutter and "Artox" Flour is a revelation to the uninitiated. The Nut Butters are also very good, especially the uncoloured varieties labelled "Wallaceite."

Shearns.

Mr. Shearn is the acknowledged "Fruit King" of the Food Reform movement. The grand fruit shop in Tottenham Court Road, to which is now added a vegetarian restaurant, is familiar to most Food Reformers who live in or near London. Others will be glad to know of Shearn's Stores where all the latest "Food Reform" specialities are stocked. A catalogue can be obtained on application.

Wallace Bakery.

This is the only bakery in existence which supplies bread, cakes, etc., made with very fine wholemeal flour, and entirely free from yeast and chemicals. The Wallace Bakery is a boon and a blessing to Physical Regenerationists.

A HEALTHY LIFE BOOKLET FREE

It has many valuable recipes for Food Reformers and Invalids, and tells all about

"ARTOX" WHOLE MEAL,

which is made from the finest whole wheat, and is so finely ground by old-fashioned stone mills that it can be digested by the most delicate. It makes the most delicious Bread, Cakes, Biscuits, and Pastry, and is an entire safeguard against Constipation when used regularly in place of white flour. It is strongly recommended by The Lancet and by Mrs. Leigh Hunt Wallace (Herald of Health) and is used exclusively in the Wallace Bakery. Sold by Health Stores and Grocers everywhere in 7 lb. sealed linen bags, or 28 lbs. sent direct for 4s. 6d. carriage paid.

Absolutely Safe and Delightful? 2s. 2d.; 2s. 10d.; and 3s. 6d. per lb.

THE UNIVERSAL DIGESTIVE TEA is ordinary Tea treated with oxygen, which neutralises the injurious tannin. Every pound of ordinary tea contains about two ounces of tannin. Tannin is a powerful astringent subject to tan skins into leather. The tannin in ordinary tea tans, or hardens, the lining of the digestive organs, also the food eaten. This prevents the healthful nourishment of the body, and undoubtedly eventuates in nervous disorders.
