Natural and Manufactured Food
By Editor
A correspondent writes us regarding the merits of factory foods and natural foods, with the intimation that factory foods are adulterated. That is true many times, and yet on the other hand there are some factory foods that are the very purest foods there are. They are cooked in the very cleanest way; put up in nice, neat shape; great care is taken in all the manufacture to have everything perfectly clean. Nearly always such foods as that are put up in sealed cartons or packages. On the other hand there is what might be called natural food in the way of fruits, etc., which are exposed for sale in open market, that may be the filthiest and most unwholesome sort of food. Flesh foods may be called natural foods, and yet they may be horribly diseased. The only thing that a Christian or other person can do is to look into matters concerning his foods, and choose that which is the best. The Christian ought to carry it still further than that, and “eat and drink to the glory of God.” BE noble! and the nobleness that lies
In other men, sleeping but never dead,
Will rise in majesty to meet thine own.
