FRUIT was the natural food of primitive man. 

The history of the anthropoidal race shows that the highest specimens of physical life were developed on a diet consisting largely of nuts and fruits.

Aside from the value of fruit as a food it occupies an important place as an ornament and an article of decoration for the table.

A pyramid of luscious ripe fruit in the center of a table makes the American Beauty rose look stale and out of place.

Fruit is Nature's great remedial or curative agent.

  
While there is some nourishment in all fruit, yet it might be divided into two general classes.

First, Nutritive and second, Curative.

Such articles as apricots, peaches, plums, strawberries, grapes, apples, oranges, grape fruit, figs, prunes and nectarines are Nature's best laxative.

Such articles as cherries, blackberries, raspberries, dewberries, quinces, pomegranates and pears act as astringents and the juices are excellent in cases of chronic dysentery or diarrhoea.

The following group of fruits possess very nutritive and highly necessary food properties:   Bananas, pears, dates, figs, raisins, grapes, apples and the black California cherry.
