acid, should. however, be avoided by
those so afflicted, as oXalic acid in food
may cause the production of oXalic cal
culus. This acid may also produce acid
dyspepsia. The sour taste of the tomato
is supposed to be due to to the presence
in large amount of oxalic acid. While
it is existent in the tomato, the sour
taste is said to be due to citric acid.
Green vegetables do not contain much
IRON; this element, if present, varies
greatly with amount of iron in the soil,
and is found in traces in the green col
oring matter, spinach, perhaps, being
the richest in its amount. In an or
binary mixed diet of the well-fed indi-
vidual there should be a sufficient guam
tity of this mineral constituent to salts
fly all physiological demands. The
amount of sodium chloride, or common
salt, necessary for our needs, should be
supplied in natural form in green veg
etables, but when much of this is lost in
process of cooking, the craving for a
moderate amount of an extra addition of
artificial salt to these foods should be
satisfied, as it has a favorable influence
in the absorption of the food.

The Jewish Pale.

The Jewish Pale embraces Poland and
several western provinces of Russia.
Here are imprisoned all Jews born on
Russian soil who cannot afford to pay
1000 rubles a year for the privilege of
doing business in Russia proper. But
even those who have all their lives lived
outside the Pale may any night awake
to find their homes surrounded by SOL
Iiers whose commands are to convert
to the orthodox faith, Or drive into ex-
lie all Jews found within that city. So
have the Jews been driven from Moscow
and other large cities of Russia within
late years, and oon they must leave
Kiev, the ancient capital of the Jewish
kingdom once established in southern
Russia. Every year the limits of he
Pale are narrowed, and the lot of the Jew
within made more ~unbearable. He can
no longer own farm lands, O ever live
in villages. Many trades are forbidden
him, and only five per cent. of the Jew
ish children within the Pale may learn
to read and write. Yet, even so, the Rus
sian peasant looks with longing toward
the one prosperous portion of Russia.
the Pale. Here the Jew has built fac
tories in the cities; while in the agricul-
tural districts he drives from farm to

1t was a severe storm yesterday, one
that Perth Amboy does not care to see
repeated again very soon. The great
amount of damage to the small ship
ping interests in the harbor is deplor-
able. Pleasure crafts of all kinds
suffered. the wreck of the Rosa being
a pitiable sight. She will be remember
ed as the prize winner at the carnival
at which time she was so prettily
decorated. Today the cabin is a mass
of kindling wood and nothing but the
empty she'll of the hull remains.
The oystermen are heavy losers.
Their loss being particularly felt now
as the busy season is opening. 1t will
be some time before business along
shore is restored to its normal condi-
ton.

VALUE OF GREEN STUFF.
Various Properties of New Vegeta bles
and Their Effect On the
Human System.

Green vegetable foods, with the not
able exception of the pea and bean-are
not to be valued chiefly for the amount
Of proteids, fats and carbohydrates OBJ
tanned from them, for these are small.
They are more digestible when eaten
Render and green han are the older veg
etables in which the cellulose becoms
tncrusted and %intergrown with a sub
Stance of a mineral nature-hard and
woody-which resists the action of the
digestive juices and makes it impossible
for US to separate and appropriate to our
needs the proteids, sugars and starches.
The well-informed cook will treat this
substance In such a manner that it is
softened, broken up and, if necessary,
completely separated from the useful ell
ements, says the Washington Star.
Green vegetables, generally speaking,
are composed of a large per cent. OF wa
ter and the chief value they possess as
food depends on the amount of mineral
matter which they contain-which is
relatively large. In cooking green
vegetables, however, they lose much of
their mineral substance as well as the
greater part of their already poor stock
of nutrients. On the other hand, they
gain water. They require the most
careful treatment, therefore, in order to
retain the small amount of valuable con-
~stituents they hold. Vegetable leaves,
shoots, stalks, even cabbages, are too
often cooked without much thought in
regard to why the new" vegetables cook
tender so much sooner than the older
ones, and to this lack of knowledge is
due the loss of a very large per cent.
of the whole amount of nutritive value.
Green vegetables, whether served raw
or cooked, may be made the mean of
conveying fat into the body in form of
butter, oil or cream, and with many
cooked green vegetables can be served
a sauce that will greatly enrich and in
crease their worth.
The presence of green vegetables in
our diet is a necessity of life; the amount
and kind to be eaten must be deter
mined by the individual. Generally their
free use Is to be recommended, espe-
lcially In some diseases of the skin, mi
nor forms of scurvy and for patients suf-
fering from gravel. Rhubarb, contain
ing a considerable amount of oxalie

Utilizing SpOils of the Woods,

For those who have a little skill in
basket weaving, the sweet grasses which
grow so profusely in many parts of the
country offer one of the most desirable
materials for their work. These can be
woven into the daintiest of little work
baskets or jewelry baskets, and will re-
tain their delivate fragrance and dainty
coloring almost indefinitely. Ones
stock of soft pillows can also be added
to at this time. Fragrant pine needles
make a delightful odorOus pillow. They
are very easily gathered and are thought
to have a decided medicinal virtue, espe-
cially in case of respiratory troubles.
The soft down from fully ripened cat
tails also makes nice filling for pillows.
The materials for these various articles
should be gathered during the long sum-
mer days one spends out of doors, pre-
pared carefully and put away. Later,
the long evenings will afford ample time
to make them up, and many dainty and
s~erviceable little gifts can be prepared
in this way.-Pearson's Magazine.

are very disagreeable, but we prefer
to have them a little more spread out
than was that one yesterday. At s

- Everybody is fast coming around to
the Evening News way of thinking in
regards to saving the Westminster
property for the public. Rev, DR.. H.
G. Mendenhall, brought the matter
up before the Chamber of Commerce
and the members have taken hold of
the dea with enthusiasm. Different
people have different ideas as to how
property shall be saved, but all agree
with the Evening News that it should
belong to the public.
The suggestion that the historic old
mansion be used as a school house is
a good one. To study history in such
a place would be an extreme delight
to almost anyone. Patriotism would
be kindled anew and the younger
generation could not help but feel
proud of their city where so much
history has been made.
Then, the land could be used for the
much needed pleasure grounds. More
than one Perth Amboyan has bIushed
with shame when asked by citizens of
other cities, how much land here was
devoted to parks.
It is gratifying to know that the
Board of Education has also taken up
the matter seriously and has appointed
Il committee to investigate the matter
f&rther. Now that the agitation has
taken root, it would seem that the
Board of Aldermen might do some
thing to secure the property. 1t would
be an investment that would never
depreciate. rather, its value will in
crease year by year. A school build
ing is needed in that section of the
city, especially as the lots in that
vicinity are fast building up. At all
events, Perth Amboy needs the West
minister as public property. When

This was the first time in English

The prices for the best seats will be
25 per cent less than they were when
"Ben.Hur" was originally produced
