I need not ask the naturalist to describe the teeth and PHYSIOLOGICAL GASTRONOMY 275 large intestine, the conformation of which clearly enough indicates that man is made to consume animal as well as vegetable food, but shall simply relate one or two experi- ments, made on an extended scale, which show that men who live chiefly on vegetables are physically inferior to those who are supplied with meat. In treating of gas- tronomy from a physiological point of view, one should least of all neglect... the subject of alimentation of the poorer classes; and this subject has engaged the attention of some of the most eminent scientific men of the age. In 1841 a company engaged in building a railroad be- tween Paris and Rouen employed in its construction a number of English engineers, who imported workmen from England in addition to the French laborers.
