VIRTUES OF TAMARlND Water

centric looking pod, has a peculiar
tang" and is used in a chilled bev-
erage called "tamarind water" Re-
move the seed and pulp from the pods,
stripping OF every particle of hard
woody fiber that may cling to it. To
a cupful Of shelled tamarinds add a
pint Of boiling water. Stir the mix
ture thoroughly until It is thick. Add
a cupful Of sugar and squeeze as
much Of the mixture through strain
er as possible. Set it near ice to cool,
then add crushed ice and enough ice
water to thin it little. It should be-
very cold when served. Tamarind wa
ter, it is said, was once as popular as
lemonade. It is still used occasion
ally for patients suffering from slight
fevers and is recommended for bilious
troubles. It is also administered to
children instead Of castor oil, as IT. Is

This fruit is in season the year
around, but It is best in the months
of May and June. It comes from q
tree which Is q native Of the East and
West indies, and thrives In most tropi-
cal countries.

city and began plans to erect his new
lodging and boarding house. He let
the newspapers in on the fact that he
was going to do so and the story of
the proposed lodging house was spread
