(ConrrUht. 1914. by A. & Cray)
PROTEIN FOOD,
We have noted that tho average
man, kept absolutely motionless In
bed and fasting, develops 1,625 calo
ries a day, an amount of energy equiv
alent to lifting one ton (2,000 pounds)
more than 2,600 feet, and that to this
must be added tho energy oxpendod In
ovary additional motion, even to the
additional heart beats resulting from
mental excitement or any other form
of muscular action. This 'Implies a
combustion of tissue fuel and, of
course, wherever there Is combustion,
unless It be of pure carbon, there
must be wasto or ash.
Among our main food materials the
proteins are characterized by contain
ing nitrogen in a wonderfully complex
molecule that passes through a bewil
dering series of motabollc ohanges In
our bodies and finally, after having
completed the cycle, is oxpelled from
the body chiefly In the urine, but to
a smaller extent In tho feces and
sweat.
Physiologists take theso facts aa a
basis from which to figure the food
requirements of our bodies, and when
they speak of tho nitrogen balance, or
(he carbon balance, they refer to that
amount of nitrogen" or carbon Intake
that 1b exactly balanced by the
amounts of nitrogen or carbon ex
creted from the body. Nitrogen equi
librium, then, Is that state of body
in which the nitrogen Intake is ex
actly balanced by the nitrogen com
pounds expelled. If tho balance le
even, then tho body Is receiving in the
food as much protein nitrogen as it Is
metabolizing and eliminating In tho
excreta. If thero is a plus balance In
favor of the food It Is evldont that the
body is laying on or storing protoln,
while if the balance is minus, that is,
If the total nitrogen excreted exceeds
the nitrogen protein taken In the food,
the body must be losing protein.
Obviously, anything that will tend
to disturb the normal appetite must
upset this delicate balance, and there
in lies the disadvantage and tho grave
danger in using dietetic whips in tho
shape of condiments, eauces, cock
tails and all highly flavored non-nutritious
substances. It is Important to
bear In mind the fact that nitrogen or
protein equilibrium may easily bo es
tablished on different levels. For in
stance, one may be In nitrogen equi
librium on one ounce of protein and
may increase it to two or three ounces
nnd still be in equilibrium, Just as you
can burn In your furnace throe buck
ets of coal a day or ten. Experience
teaches that the extra protein is me
tabolized in the body and equilibrium
Is established on a higher level so that
there Is no accumulation, but the or
gans must work harder to expel the
additional ash. Experimentally it has
been found that there is a certain low
limit of protein which Just suffices to
maintain nitrogen balance, and be
tween this level and the maximum ca
pacity of the body to digest and ab
sorb protein food the nitrogen equi
librium may be maintained upon any
given amount of protein. Tho investi
gations of Chittenden and others in
this field seem to show that nitrogen
equilibrium may easily be maintained
on a plane vastly lower than that gen
erally prevailing, and to lower the
protein allowance approximately to
this minimum undoubtedly would bo
of great benefit to the average indi
vidual in many ways, especially dur
ing hot weather.
Nitrogen is eliminated from tho
body as urea, creatinine and uric acid.
Urea is the most Important of the ni
trogenous excreta of tho body, being
tho chief end product, so far as nitro
gen Is concerned, of the physiological
metaboMsm of tho proteins and the
albumenolds of the foods. If we know
how much urea is secreted in a given
period we know approximately how
much protein has been broken down
In the body In the same time.
Next to urea and tho ammonia com
pounds it forms, tho most important
of the known nitrogen constituents of
the urine is creatinine.
Uric acid Is generally believed to
be the result of the dally wear and
tear of cell constituents, the final re
sult of cleavage of nucleoprotelns.
Just what the latent adaptive powers
of the normal human body may be
we do not know, but Inasmuch as
there Is some close connection be
tween tho urlo acid group and many
of our insidious diseases, the wise man

GOOD AS A REFRIGERATOR
Frenchman Telia of Some Remarkable
Things That May Be Done With
the Humble Flower Pot.
A certain Frenchman of an investi
gating turn of mind has Just found
out that an ordinary red clay flower
pot can be made use of to keep water,
butter and other things at refrigera
tor temperatures In tropical climates
or the hottest of August days.
Just an ordinary flower pot will do,
or any sort of clay Jar, porous vessel,
or common unglazod earthenware pot.
All you need do la to moisten a
cloth with strong salt water and keep
it over the top of the flower pot. The
ends should dip down Into a soup dish
or basin on which the flower pot
stands. This draining dish must bo
kept full of water all the time. A
dark, cool pantry, Just wbero you
would keep an ice cooler or a ro
frigorator, is a good place to keep the
clay Jar or pot
Another way described Is to wrap
a layer of burlap around a porous Jar.
The water or butter or what not Is
his protein foods, especially as the
moderate use thereof appoors to add
to his Immediate comfort and well
being.
PURIN FOOD MATTER.
Emll Fischer first called attention
to a nucleus composed of carbon, hy
drogen and nltrogon, which ho called
"Purln," and which is found to bo
widely distributed among food mat
ters. Tho purin bodios are regarded
as the paront substance of compounds
of tho urlo acid and xanthln group,
which ore progressively oxidized purln
nuclei, running nbout as follows'
Purln; adenln, or nmlno-purln; guan
In, or amlno-oxy-purln; hypoxanthln,
or oxy-purin; xanthln, or dtoxy-purln;
urlo acid, or trloxy-purln, uric nold be
ing the most highly oxidized purln
of the group.
About twelve different combinations
of the purln nucleus are known to ex
ist in nature, but not fewer than 146
have been produced in tho laboratory.
How many may bo formed in the body
In tho cyclo between tho protein In
take and the nitrogenous excreta and
their final effect on human health and
happiness Is not known, but certainly
they exert a profound Influence on us.
Putin bodios are stimulants and
they exist In all meat extracts, in the
flesh moats of ordinary consumption
and in much larger quantities In tho
glandular organs. In lessor amounts
they occur in many vegetables and
grains, as in oats, the potato and the
sugar beet Oaffein, the active prin
ciple of cotfoe and tea, and thoobro
mln, the active principle of cocoa, aro
respectively trlmethyl and dimethyl
compounds of xanthln.
Hall names a number of common
foods containing purln bodios, and tho
following list gives tho amount con
tained per pound:

found one gram (15.43 grains) of uric
acid excreted in 24 hours on a purely
vegetable diet; 1.1 grams (1G.94
grains) on a mizod diet, and 1.4 grams
(21.56 grains) on a diet consisting
chiefly of meat. Haugton found three
times as much uric acid excreted by
meat eaters as by vegotable eaters, and
Herman, Rosenfeld and Orgler found
uric acld-nltrogen excreted In amounts
ranging from 0.046 gram in 24 hours
on purln-freo diet to 2,793 grams on
a meat diet.
Dappor, Ranke, Bunge, Maroz,
Schultz, Taylor, Burlan and Schur and
many others find that a higher excre
tion of uric acid Is brought nbout by
a meat diet than by vegetables, fata
and carbohydrates. Dietetics is gradu
ally becoming an exact science and
certain general principles are recog
nized by science about ae universally
as they are disregarded by the aver
age individual.
One definitely fixed fact is that the
physiological fuel values of our foods
are as follows:
Carbohydrates, 4 calories per gram (16.43
groin.)
Fat. 9 calories per gram (15.43 grain).
Protein, 4 calories per gram (15.43 grain).
Proteins are exactly Interchange
able with carbohydrates as a fuel food,
but carbohydrates aro not interchange
able with proteins. Proteins are, as
wo havo seen, growth and tissue re
pair foods, for which there Is but a
limited demand, and any material ex
cess, especially in tho purin nucleus
containing proteins, tends to derange
our metabolizing functions, to form
body poisons and thereby break down
our execreting organs.
Carbohydrates and fats, on the
other hand, furnish straight fuel or
energy producing foods, which, In
their natural state, are burned in tho
body with a minimum residue and
without creating deleterious by-products.
Becauso of Its stimulating qual
ities, protein Is not only an uncomfort
able and dangerous hot-weather fuel
food, but it Is very expensive. Three
thousand calories of lean steak at 20
cents a pound cost $1.26; tho same
amount of energy in oysters at 30
cents a quart will cost $1.90; but tho
same 3,000 calories in genuine whole
wheat flour at 6 cents a pound will
cost 10 cents, and the same energy In
milk at 8 cents a quart will cost but
37 cents.
To be healthy and efficient about
three-tenthe of our energy should be
socured from butter, cream, milk, fats
and oils; six-tenths from potatoes,
bread, cereals, fruits and vegetables,
and one-tenth from protein foods
beef, chicken, fish and the like.
put In the Jar and it is exposed to a
current of air, say, on a dark window
sill with windows open and shutters
closed.
The water Inside the porous pot
perspires its way In a microscopic
moisture through to tho outer surface.
The burlap maintains such a slow rate
of evaporation that tho pot is kept
cold and this cools tho contents.
This use of flower pots to make Ice
water can be made valuable not only
to every homo and boarding house in
tho land, but in times of Ice famine
on trains, in deserts, on the base
ball field and In the pantries and
kitchens of hotels and other places.

MENTAL ACTIVITY AND AGE
That Attitude of the Mind Has Much
to Do With Length of Life la
Well Known.
A fow years ngo a young man
"died of old ago" in a Now York
hospital. After an autopsy tho sur
geons said that whllo tho youth was
In reality only twonty-threo years old
ho was Internally eighty!
It Is tho aged mind that frequently
makes tho body old. "Keep growing
or die," Is nature's motto, a motto
wrltton all over everything In tho
universe There must bo a constant
activity in tho mind that would not
age; and the body Is but tho expres
sion of tho mind.
There Is no doubt that, as a race,
'o shorten our lives very materially
through our false thinking, our bad
living, and our old-age convictions.
Doctor Metchnlkoff of tho Pasteur in
stitute In Paris, says that men should
live at least 120 years. Yet It is
only In rnro Instances today that a
man reaches oven tho century mark.
Making a buBlnoss of prolonging

buoyancy ought to bo a prlmo object,
especially after ono has passod fifty.
Whllo proper caro of tho body is ab

of this object tho mental influenco far
transcends all others. Tho attltudo
of tho mind has everything to do
with hnstenlng or retarding tho do

backache, headache, rheumatic; pain, du
llness, drowsy, tired toolings, disturbed
urination and other signs ot kidney weak
nee. The constant uie ot narcotlo or al
coholic drinks Ii very apt to Irritate the
kidneys, and weak Kidneys need prompt
help to avert all danger ot dropsy, gravel
or fatal Brlght'a disease. Avoid the une
of etlmulante, drink moro water, get more
rest, fresh air and exercise. To tone and
strengthen the tired kidney, use Doan's
Kidney Fills, the most successful and
highly recommended kidney remedy.
