MARKS OF SCIENCE
A shrewd observer s?ys that Society
la rap'.dy iss iming all the marts of a
rut Sanitary Science Congrers. "Men
and woineu, apparently sound ia mind
an J lmb, stuJy the o.rera tersof their
bodies as ttre.it meteorologists seek for
?eismie disturbances."
It is certain that the great food ques
tion is occupying an unduly lar/e place
In what Society would facetiously call
Its thought. Poor peop'e have no time
tor auch reflections, and, consequently,
they ?ic not reminded by their diges -
tions that there is such a thing as a
science of food. Of course, most of the
agitation is due to the medical world,
which flnds it a rare opportunity for
driving fish ino the net. Reputable
physicians are no- allowed to advertise
Id the recognized ways, but they have
found that there is no such profitable
advertisement as a public attack upon
some article of diet in general use. No
one is ?o credulous as the hypochondri
ac: no one is so ready to Relieve any
acd every absurdity as the man who has
embarked upon the perilous path of oh
serving insignificant physical svmp
torns, or who has degenerated into the
habit of watching for the results of
particular kinds of food. Indeed, the
more ridiculous the phvsician's fad the
more eagerly it is accepted by the cred
ulous. There seems to be a large and
Increasing clai-s, tnain'y of "the unem
ployed," who govern their diet by
magazine articles and who are re dy in

a moment to reject some dietary staple
because a physician has found it to con
tain an oil, or an acid or au alkali, or
something else tint is supposed to be
prejudicial to health. We must not eat
cbeesr, or bananas, or st-awbemes or
beaus, or nuts. These curnr under tbe
ban of a single week, and their hither
to unsuspected poisons are gravely dis
cussed as though wo bad been suddenly
dragged .'rotn the edge of a diatary
prfc'pice. We need only go back for
a fjw monthsor yeais of these medical
puerilities to discover that earth
produces no food whatever that is fit
for human consumption and that we
invite death every time we allow a
drop of liquid to p?ss our lips. But we
are still awaiting, and likely to await,
the society physician who will warn us
that. iho stomach resents being thought
about more than all probable dietary
sins put together, and that there is
nothing so dyspeptic in its conse
quences as foolish thought about what
we shall or shall not eat. St. Paul
taught the greatest ot all hygienic
lessons when be >aid that he wou'd eat
what was placed brfore him, ' askio),;
no questions for conscience sake." It.
may be that tbe ancients hud some of
the same kiad of foolishness. We find
traces of it in Pliny. Even Sir Andrew
Aguecheek confessed that he ato a
greatdeal of beef. which did harm to his
wit. But then there were no news
papers In ttiosejdays to spread the super
atitions of tcience.
