Nonsen.e About Tomatoes.

An idea has gained currency during
the past few years that the tomato as
an article of diet is liable to produce or
encourage the terrible disease of can
Ger, and not long ago it was also stated
that the use of this vegetable had been
forbidden at the Cancer hospital. So
widely spread has this notion become
that DIR. Marsden, chairman of the
medical committee of the Cancer hospi-
tai, London, has thought it advisable
to give it official contradiction. He
says that his committee has been inun-
dated with letters on this subject, and
he begs publication for the following
statement, which we hope will settle
the matter once for all. 1t is the opin-
ion of the committee ''that tomatoes
neither predispose to nor excite cancer
formation, and that they are not in
jurieus to those suffering from this dis
ease, but, on the contrary, are a very
wholesome article of diet. particularly
so if cooked. Chambers Journal.
