Probably, strength of body and mind, as a general rule, depends upon breed, and this argument tells two ways--it does not follow that vegetarians will be necessarily strong, and will cease to be cruel; nor does it follow that those who have been accustomed all their lives to eat meat will cease to be strong should they become vegetarians.

As we have said, the great motive that induces many to give vegetarianism a trial is economy; and if persons would once get rid of the idea that they risk their health by making a trial, much would be done to advance the cause.
Another great reason for persons hesitating to make a trial is the revolution it would create in their households.

Here again we are beset by difficulties, and these difficulties can only disappear gradually, after long years of patience.

We believe the progress towards vegetarianism must of necessity be a very slow one.

No large West End tradesman could possibly insist upon his whole establishment becoming vegetarians because he becomes one himself.
