No Cancer IN Tomatoes.

DR.. Andrew Wilson of London writes
thus: Il have received several letters
of late reiterating a question | might
well be tired of answering: Do to-
matoes cause cancer?' But for the
fact that one takes pleasure in stamp
ing ones foot on a misleading state
ment calculated to prejudice people
against a vegetable food which is en-
tirely healthful and safe, l should
grow weary of assuring that not jot
or little of proof has ever been offered
in support of the outrageous statement
noted above. One might as well al
lege that cabbage causes cancer, for
there would be no more proof to be
had concerning that than in the to-
mato myth"

AntiuuitY of the Needle.

1t is known that the Chinese, Hin
docs and Hebrews used needles IRON
great antiquity. Steel needles were
known to the Romans. but none have
been discovered, the metal not being
able to resist the corrcI ing influence
of the atmosphere. The making of fine
needles was introduced into Spain by
the Moors and from that country was
brought to England in the reign of
Queen Elizabeth. The foreigners who
made the needles. however, refused to
teach their trade to the natives, and
not until 1850 did the manufacture OBJ

To Polish Glaze or Linen.

After the linen has been carefully
starched, have ready at hand basin
of cold water, clean-covered ironing
board, a piece of soft rag and we'll
heated polishing iron. To polish COL
lars, take one at a time, place it fiat
on the board, dip the clean rag into
the cold water. and then lightly wet
the surface of the collar. On no ac-
count must it be made too wet, or it
will blister, and be careful that no
drops of water fall on it. Hold the
collar in position with the left hand,
and run the polishing iron up and
down it with the right. At first the
linen will have slreaky appearance,
but the smoothing must be continued
until the surface is CLOSED all over.
Different kinds of glazes are to he had
for polishing linen, which are used
instead of the polishing-iron, but they
do not give such high gloss, and are
sometimes injurious to the linen.

Spain in climate, fruitful soil and
mineral resources ought to be enc of
the richest countries in the world. bat
it is one of the poorest Many reasons
besides the corruption and extrava-
gance of the government and official
classes might be assigned One of the
chief reasons, however, is the vast
number of adult males who are non
producers and exist apart from any
productive employment. Roughly es-
timating the number Of adult males
at 100000, nearly one-half may be
described as non-producers- There
are 1860 priests to begin with. The
nobility number half million, and
are almost exempt from taxation. The
army, navy and services viii number
at least half a million more, and the
balance is made up of the numerous
bodies of provincial officials. students,
lawyers. financiers and the like The
male adults who ought to be engaged
in agriculture or manufacturing prefer
to spend their time in cafes and leave
the women kind to DO the work In
the matter of railways, roads, canals
and navigable rivers, Spain is almost
as undeveloped as Armenia.-Man-
