TOMATOEs--wAYs OF USING THEM.
The tomato, not many years since,
looked upon with so much disfavor as
to be used only as a medicine, and
even as a remedy often declared to be
worse than the disease, has become
universally popular and is now es-
tened first class requisite In every
garden. stfl s-ie
Capable of belnt cooked I'm variety
of ways, or of being eaten raw with
NE addition of different condiments,
It always presents n pleasing and at
tractive appearance ON the table, even
to those who dislike the taste. Many
like to pick them from the vines and
eat them as they would any fruit, 9TH
ers like them best sliced and dressed
with vinegar and salt. others, with
vinegar, salt and oil, and still others
with vinegar and sugar, while an ac-
quaintance declares she likes them best
with sugar and cream served like
peaches. We certainly get the quality
and fiavornof the different varieties
better when eaten raw than when
ooUked, while as a fruit to can for
winter use they are unsurpassed, for
II properly done, they turn out as fine
and with as delicate and fresh O flavor

senator Morton's sickness.

An exchange says: Senator Nor
toms wife does not leave him for q sim
gle hour during his sickness, and dur
Ing the day his two sons sit by him,
one, Oliver, almost always holding his
fathers hand in his own. Paralysis
has rendered him entirely helpless,
and whenever he desires to change his
lposition 1t is necessary to lift him by
main strength. His body Is very sore,
and o slight jar forces him to cry out
with pain. He Is easily satisfied and
appreciates the attention shown him,
but he exacts the most constant attend
ance Of those who are there to care for
him. Senator Morton has laid by
very little money. He owns house
In Indianapolis. which he purchased
with his share of an $4,000 fee
paid him and Judge Kibby I'm 1850 by
o railroad corporation At present ft
Ia rented, paying him, perhaps, after
deducting Insurance and taxes $50 per
month. In addition to this, he has
$4,000 invested which pays him 10
per cent. Otheritems, such as notes,
and q few acres of land here and there,
will amount to So, 900 or $4,OO0-in all
$23, 900 or $4,000. He has no insur-
ance on his life, and IL may be doubted
II he would have home but for the
economical management OF Mrs. Nor
ton. With the assistance Of her broth
err, Colonel Holloway, she has held the
purse, attending to ell matters that
pertained to her husbands material
interests. Ntt
