“Dr. [H. C.] Stiefel then illustrated his sensational statement by exhibiting samples of food stuffs turned in for analysis, together with the quantities of preservative, flavoring and coloring matter⟳ extracted from them. The exhibit is far from reassuring, and goes a long way, he said, toward explaining why Americans are becoming a race⟳ of dyspeptics. […] The same man may sit⟳ at supper or breakfast with a Hamburger steak containing sulphite of soda, or sausages treated with borax.”
“Fair guests and their escorts near by listened expectantly for the “order⟳” from the distinguished looking man of affairs. It would be a $2 order⟳ at least. With becoming hauteur and dignity, and a slowness which suggested a tip⟳ of size to garcon, there came these startling words: “Waiter, bring⟳ me a Hamburger steak and a glass of beer.””
