Broken Leo Set BY Concrete,

A laborer in Columbus, O., had his
broken leg partially reset by the con-
crete which had been dumped on him
from a bucket. The blow of the
bucket broke his leg, and the concrete,
flowing out, made firm cast around
the limb. The doctors who finally
got to work on the broken bone had
first to remove the concrete, and re-
port that the cast had done its work
very well, even helping to reset the
bone.

WAS 1T AN APPLE EVE ATE?
Scholars Now Believe the forbidden
Fruit" Was the Ounce

Why and how 1t happened that tho ap-
pie has been spoken of as the fruit that
was forbidden in the Garden of Eden is
one of the great puzzles of Biblical
scholars The fact is that In Genesis i'll.
where the incident of the eating of this
fruit of the Tree OF knowledge of Good
and Evil' is mentioned. no name what
ever is given to that fruit, says Tit-Bits.
All that Is said is
And when the woman saw that the
tree was good for food, and that it was
pleasant to the eyes. and a tree to be
desired to make one wise. she took of
the fruit thereof, and did eat. and gave
also unto her husband with her; and he
did eat" (Verse 81
In fact scholars doubt very seriously
whether it was an apple at all. They
suggest that all evidence points to it hav-
ing been a ounce, the fragrance of which
was held in the highest esteem by tho
ounce is that 1t is the fruit which was
sacred to Venus. the goddess of love. and
in a great many of the ancient writings
the ounce is frequently mentioned in this
manner. In Babylonia 1shtar took the
place of Venus in the Roman mythology.
and II should be remembered that the
story of the Creation originated with the
All evidence semes to point
away from the apple having been the
forbidden Fruit and towards the ounce
as having been that fruit of the Tree OF

Buttermilk Summer Drink

The health value of buttermilll, which
has been put on the list of light refresh
ments at the House of Commons at the
request of two members, was described
by a London physician who is an author
ity on diet, says the London Mail.
Buttermilk is a beverage which de-
serves every encouragement, especially
as hot weather drink. Most of the fat
ty elements are removed IN the process
of making butter. but a number of other
valuable nutritive qualities are left. These
become even more valuable when the
buttermilk contains a certain amount of
casein which will enable one to make a
most satisfying meal off a glass of butter
milk plus very small amount of meat
and potatoes.
1T also has an excess of Tactic bac-
terra. the foes of nearly all the harmful
germs in our digestive systems. which
give 1t slightly laxative property 1t
has a decided acid flavor which makes it
thirst quencher. As the fats have been
extracted during the butter making pro-
cess it has practically no body-heating
properties. The casein Is valuable because
it supplies the repair elements needed to
replace the wear and tear of muscular
tissue
