1580 ,1935 : The Tomato's c Past ORIGINALLY known in Eu rope as the Love Apple, used as a decorative garden plant and considered unfit for human consumption—the tomato today is one of the most valuable and popu lar of all foods It is one of the most largely produced of all canned foods, and has won its tre mendous popularity not only by ita flavor but by the nutritive proper ties which the medical profession has discovered it to possess. Tomatoes are rich in vegetable acids and contribute to the diet significant amounts of desirable mineral elements. They combine the properties of fruits and green vegetables. They are one of the very best sources of Vitamin C, and a good source of Vitamins A, B and G. Canned tomatoes are now said to be an even better source of Vitamin C than raw to matoes bought in the market and cooked in the usual way at home. A Grand Combination And, speaking of ways of cook ing tomatoes, here's a grand com bination of tomatoes and another well-known health food, known as Cabbage and Tomato au Gratin. The ingredients are: 3 cups cooked cabbage 1 No. 2 can tomatoes ^ 1 1/3 cups grated cheese Salt—pepper 1/3 cup dry crumbs 3 tablespoons butter Put alternate layers of cabbage, tomatoes, cheese and sprinklings of salt and pepper in a baking dish, repeating until all the ingre dients are used up. Top with crumbs, dot with butter, and bake for about twenty minutes in a moderately hot oven. This recipe will serve six people, and should cost incidentally, less than thirty five cents.* SALE OF LAND UNDER DEED j OF TRUST Take notice, that whereas, W. M.

In fact many people be lieve that opportunity comes but once in a lifetime, and that if it is not grasped, life for them is a failure.... To those whose sphere of useful ness seems cramped and circum scribed,or whose environment appears restricted, dull, colorless, the study of the life of Joseph should prove interesting. He had some very gloomy and restricting experiences. However, he did not entertain re sentment, but in every experience made use of his opportunity to prove the power of God. Thus, his spiritual thinking lifted him to become a very great statesman. The spiritual qual ities he reflected, even when in the pit and in the prison, prepared him for that position of great usefulness and service to which he attained in Egypt, and through which he had a wider opportunity to use his God given qualities of courage, wisdom, resourcefulness, mercy, and forgive stricting material beliefs which "^Opportunity is ever present. The opportunity for useful service and happy, joyous living is never absent. What we need is to pray for vision, and, like Joseph, to use our present circumstances as steppin^stones to a higher sense of true living and ser vice If, instead of beating vainly against restricting circumstances or environment, we open our thought to the unfolding of spiritual ideas and the facts of real being, which alone cast out the false beliefs of restrict ing environment and lack of oppor tunity—if we put off limited modes of thought and let that Mind which is infinite divinr Love govern our thinking, then we shall find impris oning beliefs of cramped environment giving place to wider, fuller oppor tunities. Jesus said, "I can of mine own self do nothing," and, "The Father that dwellcth in me, he doeth the works. He understood the spiritually scien tific relationship which exists be tween God and man. As the under standing of God as Life is in some measure gained through Christian Science, opportunities for a fuller life will be seen to be our inherent inalienable right. Another false belief which would claim to limit opportunity is that of age People are apt to think that when they reach what is termed ad vanced middle age their opportuni ties for usefulness are rapidly dimin ishing, and they begin to look on their life as nearly over. Moses at the age of eighty years might have thought that his opportunity for use ful work had terminated; but dur ing his forty years' retirement which followed his too impetuous defense of his countrymen, he was being pre pared for his great lifework. He ad vanced in spiritual understanding to the realization of God as Mind, Spirit, and at the age of eighty his mission was unfolded to him. For forty yearB, more he was engaged in the no light task of leading the children of Israel through the wilderness toward the promised land. Mary Baker Eddy says of him (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 200), "Mos es advanced a nation to the worship of God in Spirit." What an achieve ment! And of him the Bible records that at the age of one hundred and tweuty "his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated." When this great mission was re vealed to him, the false arguments of diffidence and reluctance to face the responsibility presented themselves to Moses; it was only when he relied on God's promise to be with him and teach him what to say and to do that his false sense of responsibility and diffidence was replaced by true hu mility. So he went forward in his work, wherein he was given the op portunity to use the spiritual Quality of meekness and receive the revela tion of moral law. On page 246 of Science and Health Mrs. Eddy says: "Except for the error of measuring and limiting all that is good and beautiful, man would enjoy more than threescore years and ten and still maintain nis vigor, freshness, £nd promise. Man, governed by immortal Mind, is always beautiful and grand. Each succeed ing year unfolds wisdom, beauty, and h°TheSSgrandeur and glory of life are stretching out before us in the pternity of good. It is not opportu nity which is lacking, for God is the river. It is the ability to perceive it for which we must pray. ^ften fear and care form a mist, but as Truth clears the vision we are en abled to see opportunity as ever at hand.

DIGESTIBLE AS MILE ITSELF1 It spreads slices toasts melts eESSs A splendid cheese food for children Daniel Boone's Hair Was Pulled Out by Indians In 1769 what la now Kentucky was an unexplored wilderness, and Daniel Boone was hired by a syndicate of Vir ginians and Carolinians to lay the course of empire westward into a land which he described as being thick with buffaloes. He thus became the path- j finder in the mighty trek to the West, observes a writer in the Kansas City ; Star. And the Cherokees were "per-! suaded" by long rifles to sell all of Kentucky and most of Tennessee to the frontiersman's employers, for 14, 000 British pounds—in money anil j trade goods. Boone, at the hear! of some thirty stalwart axmen, cut the Great Wilderness road through from j Kentucky to the East, where, in his tracks, the wheels of the empire build ers were to leave their ruts. And the ! first important settlement became, in i Boone's day, Boonesborough. on the j site of Transylvania fort, built by Boone. Daniel Boone was considered by his contemporaries "an instrument or dained by God to settle the wilder ness." But most of his settling was done with a rifle; he was, in fact, for most of the settlements, a one-man j defense against the Indians, and, it ap pears, an effective one. During the Revolution, Indian forays against the settlers, frequently led by British offi cers, were repulsed time and again by Boone and his pioneers. In 1778 a party led by Boone on a salt-hunting expedition was captured by Indians and taken to Detroit. All save the leader were exchanged or ransomed. A Shawnee chief took a fancy to Boone and adopted him. The ceremony of adoption consisted in pulling out all of his hair except a thick scalplock. Pillar Box Sign Gained Fame for the Inventor There are many ways of becoming famous, writes the Paris correspond ent of the London Sunday Observer. That earl of Sandwich who first ate meat between two pieces of bread put his name into every mouth, and the Parisian printer, of English extraction, who set up upon the pavements those round constructions, three times as wide as a London pillar box and twice as high, and used them for the display <:f theatrical advertisements which were Illuminated at night from the under-edge of a projecting circular roof, not only established what has be come one of the most characteristic features of the Paris landscape, but made his name live. For these pillars were for many years, and sometimes still are, called "collennes Morris." It is more than fifty years since the first of them made its appearance. First Permanent Settlements The exact dates and places of the first permanent settlements in the lc original states are often difficult to de termine, as authorities differ. The following are generally accepted: Con necticut, Windsor, 1683, English ; Dela ware. Wilmington, 1638, Swedes; Geor gia, Savannah, 1733, English; Mary land, St. Marys, 1634, English; Massa chusetts, Plymouth, 1620, English; New Hampshire, Portsmouth, 1623, English; New Jersey, Elizabethtown, 1617, Dutch; New York, New York, 1613, Dutch; North Carolina, Albe marle Sound, 1653, English; Pennsyl vania, Chester, 1638, Swedes; Rhode Island, Providence, 1636, English; South Carolina, Ashley River, 1670, English; Virginia, Jamestown, 1607, English. Languages of the World Including all of its various dialects, Chinese is spoken by about 400,000,000 persons and is the most used lan guage. Various languages are spoken in India, Hindustani being used by some 100,000,000. English is the sec ond most commonly used language, spoken by some 180,000,000; then Rus sian with 140,000,000; German 110,000, 000; French, 70,000,000; Portuguese, 60,000,000; Japanese, 53,000,000; Span ish and Italian, each 50,000,000; Polish, 16,000,000. These are the estimates made by Whltaker's Almanac, which gives the number of different languages spoken in the world as about 5,000. Mathematical Ability Rare mathematical ability is not al ways dependent on education. Some prodigies have been illiterate, others i have known nothing of the principles of mathematics. Johann Dase (1S24 1861), the greatest mental mathemati cal marvel in history, had no under standing of the fundamentals of math ematics, yet he could multiply two 100-figure numbers in his head in a very short time.—G. P. Elliott, Ar lington, California, in Collier's Weekly. Test Your Love A good old Scotch custom for de termining love affairs consisted of tak Ing two nuts, bestowing on one your own name and on the other the name of your beloved, putting them on the fire, and watching how they burn. Should they burn quietly, side by side, then the issue of your love affair will be prosperous; but If one starts away from the other, the result will be un favorable.

In some of the buildings rented by the government, heat is furnished from Independent plants within the respective buildings. Y^hat's the News?
