BANANAS AS FOOD.

In some tropical countries bananas
form the staple food of the natives who
gather them only after the peel turns
dark and the fruit is soft and brown
People here think such degree of soft
ness renders them unfit for food. Firm
bananas should be either cooked or
eaten with salt or with sugar and cream.
They should always be thoroughly
chewed when sufficiently firm. When
banana disagrees with a person it
may be from various causes includicg a
disordered state of the stomach. Anoth-
er cause is suspected in the habit of
pulling the fruit from the stem instead
of cutting it so germs can enter the ex-
posed end. Ripe bananas are very
nutritious and easily assimilated. One
other fact that should commend the use
of this fruit is that it will cure a taste
for intoxicating liquors. If drunkard
can be induced to eat bananas early and
often he will lose his craving for whis-
key. This has been demonstrated and
has been recommended by physicians.
When banana causes illness it can be
traced to insufficient mastcation, un-
ripe condition of the fruit or stomach
out of order.

AN INTERESTING VISITOR.

Mrs. R. de T. Lawrence had the most
interesting visitor in town during Christ
mas week in the person of Chancellor
William Howe Cooke of Nashville. He
is venerable man seventy years old
now but when he first came to Marirtta
fifty years ago he was a youth in his
teens and had been seriously wounded
in the top of his head by bullet in the
hands of Union soldier He was des-
cended from the family of General Ma
thaniel Greene of revolutionary fame
and was beautiful boy when he sought
refuge in the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Alexander Atkinson who were paren is
of Mrs. Lawrence. If you have seen
the Confederate monument in Baltimore,
the heroic, winged figure of an exultant
goddess, holding wreath of victory
aloft in one hand while the other is
laid protectingly around the shoulder of
a youth in the worn garb Of a soldier,
with closed eyes and an expression of
utter WEAKNESS on his face, then you
have an idea of how Chancellor Cooke
appeared in his youth because the SOL
der in that monument was modelled
from his photograph.
He was tenderly cared for by Mrs.
Atkinson who kept him in her home for
eight months until his grievous wound
was healed. Then he returned to the
confederate ranks and was wounded
again in the battle of Murfreesboro.
After the war he studied law, married
and made his home in Nashville.
In recent years he has practiced law
in Nashville and became chancellor of a
court there. Bereft of his wife and
children he is naturally lonely and sad
but on this Christmastide his memory
turned to the happy home on Whitlock
Avenue in Marietta and he came to see
the daughter of his former friends.
Mrs. Lawrence remembered the forlorn
boy of wartime days and gave him a
warm welcome. We hope his visit to
this happy ireside cline" in Mari
eta will change his sorrowing moods
into peace even as the mother touch of
his former benefactress restored him to
health when the surgeon had despaired.
His visit was enjoyed very much by
the Lawrence household and their other
guests.
