An idea has gained currency dur
ing the past few Yeas that the TO-
mato as an article of diet is liable to
produce or encourage the terrible
disease of cancer, and not long ago 1t
was also stated that the use of this
vegetable had been forbidden at the
Cancer Hospital. SO widely spread
has this notion become that DR..
Marsden, chairman of the medical
committee of the Cancer Hospital,
London, has thought it advisable TO
give it official contradiction. He
says that his committee has been in
undated with letters on this subject,
and he begS publication for the fol-
lowing statement, which we hope
will settle the matter once for all.
1t is the opinion of the committee
that tomatoes neither predispose to
nor excite cancer formation, and that
they are not injurious to those suf-
fering from this disease, but, on the
contrary, are d very wholesome ar
ticle of diet, particularly so il
cooked. ."-Chambers' Journal.

One great power of a proverb is that it
often cancels more than it tells.
Give until you feel it, and you will
feel more like living than you did be-
fore.
The credit that is obtained by a lie
only lasts till the truth comes out.
A big mao IN a little world is as
much out of place as = little man in a
big one. t
When people find out than it is
blessed to give, they never want to
stop.
We are always in great danger, when
We hold on to a little sin.
The great man of to-day shows Us
what all men may be by and by.
Whenever faith moves q mountain,
love should direct where it is to 60.
1t takes a higher degree of courage
to be laughed at than to be shot at.
