The results of this experiment were satisfactory in every way. The provisions being of the first quality, and very carefully steamed and baked, the appetite for salt, seasonings, milk and butter was entirely absent after a few days. Had fruits and nuts been more plentiful, and vegetable oils in market, perma- ..nent changes in diet would have been the result. Now IN A NUTSHELL. 245. there is no excuse but the lack of effort to procure perfect substitutes for animal products as explained in this book.. But what about our guests, and visits to friends, if this new way of living be adopted? Guests are glad to find something new, and will enquire how you made those cocoanut gems, fruit biscuit and hard rolls, and what gives the vegetables such a fine flavor ? If you use but little or no seasonings, furnish them for your guests. When you are invited out, and know that fresh, white yeast bread is the fashion on your friend's table, take your own bread, share it with your friends, and thus sow the seed that shall help to redeem the world. Fruits and nuts are easily procured, and so the objections and prob- lems involving changes may all be practically adjusted.. Some readers may deem the prominence given to the humanitarian side of this question out of place in this book. But the author believes that through an awakened humanity, that shall practically illustrate, and educate the youth of the nation into a thoroughly humane civilization,, is the only way out of present undesirable conditions. The two ways are made plain. The one sustains and perpetuates existing inharmonies. The other turns a new leaf and reveals a new code of ethics, that will bring peace to the body, that peace may prevail upon earth. And may this book be to those who read, the way, the. truth that leads to a higher life. DIRECTORY.
