Recipe for Tomato Butter.
" saw in the exchange while ago a re-
quest for recipe for tomato butter We
are fond of It in our family. and here is my
way of making It:
" TOMATO BUTTER-Scald and skin the
tomatoes and as you cut them up squeeze
out most of the seeds Boil steadily for a
couple of hours. I think the butter is i'm
proved If few ripe, well favored apples
cut up and cooked with the tomstoes.
When all are cooked soft, sweeten to your
taste. We put in plenty of sugar. Then
cook until the mixture is CLASSY and like
thick preserves. MRS. E. C. Mel"
It has occurred to me as a probability,
since reading your recipe, that what is
meant by tomato butter" may be after
al what my mother and other notable
housewives of her generation put up for
winter use as tomato honey" The for
mula for preparing the delicacy was this:
TOMATO HONEY-Scald and skin ripe
tomatoes Cook until they are boiled to
pieces. Then strain through a Jelly bag
to get rid of the seeds. Return to the fire
with three-quarters Of a pound of sugar for
every pint of juice, and boil slowly for an
hour, skimming off the scum as It rises

about one lemon to quart of the liquid

As child I used to think tomato honey
delicious eaten with bread and butter 1t
was welcome substitute for fruit jams and
Jellies in what we called poor fruit
year" That is, when untimely early frosts
killed the buds and blossoms of peaches,
pears, and berries. I cannot say how it
would taste to me now.
1t is getting late In the season for ripe
tomatoes In northern and middle states
But the &c butter and honey may both
be made of canned tomatoes, saving the
cook the trouble of scalding and removing
the skins, also of the time spent in the first

Sleeps WELL AT NIGHT

If you want to know how a man
feels who has allowed his health to
break down, and then finds a way of
regaining it, just read this letter from
Joseph J. Pagan, of New York City.
Nearly all last winter l was in
poor health owing to a general run
down condition. / had very little ap-
petite and did not sleep well.
In March ! began to take your de-
licious cod liver and iron preparation
Vinol, and soon noticed a great i'm
provement in my health. My appe-
tite returned, and l can now enjoy
my meals and get good rest at night.
Il have not felt better for years
than l have since taking Vinol." Mr..
Pagan did not risk a cent to get
well for his money would have been
paid back if Vinol had not helped him.
We don't see how any person In poor
health, weak, pale, nervous or unable
to sleep can hesitate a moment about
beginning the use of Vinol. We
have known Vinol to make so many
people healthy and strong again, that
we recommend it to you with the
greatest confidence.-HAYS & FIELD.

BOAT SINKS
IN Open field
Unusual Steamship Wreck Occurs
Near Natchez, Miss, Yes
terday.
Supt. transportation.

Natchez, Miss, April 22.-Striking a
stump, the steamboat Concordia sank
early yesterday morning in a field
back of the levee at Jacksons Point.
The Concordia was doing rescue work,
and was bringing about forty passen-
gers, $50 head of cattle and fifty mules
to Natchez from the flooded region.
The boat sank quickly, but the forty
passengers got away in boats, and la
ter were picked up by the steamboat
Cordill, which left here to get them as
soon as the news of the accident was
received. The three negroes drowned
were roustabouts, who attempted to
escape in a skin and were drowned
when it caPsized.
There was no insurance on the Cor
cordia. 1t is thought she can be saved,
as divers have been sent for. She
was sternwheel boat, 1856 feet long,
and had been in the trade out of here
for several years.
Out of the 100 head Of cattle 1856
were drowned, and out of fifty mules
aboard thirty-eight were drowned.
The Royal Route Company, a local
corporation, owns the boat. The T.
K. Green estate owned the mules, and
Dorsey & Elan the cattle. Jackson's
Point is about thirty-five miles south
of here.
Capt. o. X. Wilds and George
Prince, president and secretary-treas-
urer of the corporation, were aboard
when the accident happened, and
Capt. Prince was in command. The
boat left here Wednesday on trip
through Tensas and Catahoula par
ishes.

Sermon to Men.
The sermon to men in the afternoon
was listened to by large number of
men. Strength and value of a manly
appreciation of the Christian virtues,
as shown in the lives of some of the
most successful business men in the
world, was emphasized.
every demand of his Captain, which
makes one strong and brave In the
face of hardship and death, is a
worthy type of christian character.
Time has passed when, for a man to
be christian, brave and true, subjects
him to the taunt of weakness of eff
feminency. Such men as Theodore
Roosevelt, VIM. ]. Bryan, Woodrow
Wilson-men, leaders among men, fur
nish examples of what man may be
in the political world, while holding
firmly to the ideals of Christ. Not
weakness but strength is the -ele-
mental basis of christian character.
The sermon at night was heard by
the largest audience assembled since
the meeting began, and the preacher
appeal was earnest and impressive.

The Sabbath was filled with inter-
esting meetings at the Main Street
Methodist church. At the Sunday
school hour DR.. Weber spoke to the
children and young people. making
plain their duty Of filial obedience and
the need for an early conservation of
their lives to the service of God. His
appeal moved very large number of
vitation to commit their ways unto the
Lord. 1t is to the credit of the Main
Street Sunday school that very large
percentage of its members have al
ready Joined the church.
The sermon at IL o'clock in the
Main auditorium of the church was to
quite a large audience, who followed
the preacher closely and showed great
interest in his words based on that
scripture where it is said, "He that
spared no his own son but delivered
him up for us all, how shall he not
with him freely give us all things?''
In the gift of Christ to the world,
God did not barter with satan. Jesus
was tempted in all things, but without
sin. Jesus never broke law of God
or man. He lived the perfect life and
met every demand of the atonement.

BOIL WEEvIL INFESTED AREA
Limit of Spread of Insect in Alabama
Now Definitely Established
Where Line Runs.

The limit of spread for the Next
can cotton boil weevil in Alabama
for 1911 has now been definitely es-
tablished. The weevil line runs from
about Columbus, Miss, through Mem
phis, Pickens county; thence in a
southeasterly direction west of and
close to Gainesville and Epes and
through Coatopa in Sumter county;
through Myrtlewood and Hampton in
Marengo county; east of Bethel. Will
cox county, through Monroe, Monroe
county. to Repton, Conecuh county;
thence through Pollard in Escambia
county and directly south to the gulf
through Santa Rosa county, Fla.
The Alabama quarantine regula-
tions apply to the entire weevil in
tested area and also to safety
zone twenty miles in width imme-
diately outside of and adjoining the
weevil infested area in Alabama or
other state. This line is not likely
to move until after August 1, 1912.
