Apples Are Good.

Apples are a splendid nerve tonic. German analysts say that the apple contains a larger percentage of phosphorous than any other fruit or vegetable. The phosphorous is admirably adapted for renewing the essential nervous matter, lecithin, of the brain and spinal cord. Also the acids of the apple are of signal use for men of sedentary habits whose livers are sluggish in action, those acids serving to eliminate from the body noxious matter, which, if retained, would make, the brain heavy and dull or bring ahout jaundice or skin eruptions and other allied troubles.
