SUGAR IMPROVES
FRUIT FLAVORS
Makes these healthful foods
delightful to the taste

The human body needs fruits, to
be well-fed and healthy, and each
person should eat at least one raw
and one cooked fruit each day. Here
ore the health-giving elements that
fruits bring to US: needed rough
age, fruit vitamines, mineral salts,
and beneficial fruit acids.
And, thanks to sugar, fruits can
also be beneficial in another way.
The harsh or sour acids, by being
sweetened to taste, can be turned
into delightful flavors that add en-
joyment to eating. As a famous
food scientist states it, "The fruit
acids are softened by SUGAR. TIL
fruit flavors are developed by sugar
Sugar promotes and facilitates the
ingestion Of fruits"
There are few people in the
world who do not relish the delicious
Aavors Of orange and grapefruit
salad, sweetened to taste. One of
the most welcome beverages to any
palate is hot lemonade.
And remember that stewed fresh
apples or pears or stewed dried
peaches, prunes or apricots are ex-
cellent for breakfast. For dinner
think Of apple sauce with pork, and
cranberry sauce with any kind Of
roast fowl or meat. Baked apples
u pears and fruit pies ar delicious.
- we'll Is healthful, for dessert.
Eating should be enjoyable as
we'll as healthful. The use Of sugar.
on raw fruits and in cooking, is the
friend Of food enjoyment. The

RIVER OF GOLD IS
GREAT MISNOMER
Etib6 MI6 Nor Gold to Be

Washington. D. C.. Nov. se.-The
little-known Rio de Orc or River
Of Gold" region Of Spanish Africa.
where neither rivers nor gold exist,
was brought into the news limelight
recently by the capture and subse-
quent release OF two French air.

the Washington. D. c. headquarters
Of the National Geographic Society.
Dio de Orc consists of four hundred
miles OF sandy waste along the
northwestern coast OF Africa be-

It lies directly southwest of Morocco
and IL the westernmost part OF the
Sahara Desert.

ing some gold dust from the natives.
Immediately called it Rio d. Ouro.'
or River OF Gold They believed
they had found the mythical 'Pac-
tolus.' supposed to be a branch Of
the Nile river in that part of the
continent. After its discovery old
mays traced river on a straight
line from Rio de Orc across the
Sahara to its confluence with the
Mile, somewhere in Nubia. Thus
river was made to flow where no
river existed. The Portuguese Rio
d. QUITO was changed to Rio de Orc
when the Spanish took possession OF
the territory in 1855.
Most of Rio de Orc is sterile
and rocky plateau about 1000 feet
high. Near the coast is grown es-
parto grass, Of which paper. cord
age and baskets are made. Further
inland are GASES. Nomad Berbers

raising cattle. sheep and camels.
Its climate is dry but not unhealth-
full. although summer days in Rio

degrees Little known and little
visited. 1t Is still land Of mystery
to the casual student OF geography.

The only Spanish colony in the
territory Is at Villa Cisneros. Here
are the headquarters OF the fishing

In size and flavor with the cod OF
New Foandland and the North Sea
THE fisheries are largely in the
hands of Spanish and French fisher
men from the Canary Islands, which
lie northwest of Rio de Orc. Under
these capable fishermen. the in
dustry has progressed by leaps and
bounds until it now forms a source
Of revenue for the Spanish govern

II was talking to Bert Myers" her
brother said with grin. He started
out by telling me that your beloved
one spent the afternoon in the lions
cage out at the zoo"
Bob didp" squealed his fiancee.
Bless his brave heart! And he never
even mentioned 1t to me-and you
had the nerve to say he was afraid
to so up In your old planei"
Wait, precious sister," advised her
brother. holding up one hand TO stop
the avalanche of talk. That is only
the Introductory statement. as might
be said in the rhetoric classes! 1t is
only the start carefully stated to whct
the interest and excitement Of the
listener! After Bert got running start
he explained that new floors are being
laid In the old building at the 600 and
this was the day they'd picked to put
new flooring IN the lions cage. And your
brave Bob was In there measuring and
supervising the work OF the carpenters.
Ha. ha. ha! hope Bert calls again
so I can get the whole OF 1t! There was
evidently more to the tale, for he was
going strong when the operator cut us
off,"
Well. il doesn't signify that Bob's
a coward. does It, because he was in
there when the cage was empty?" said
his sister coldly and without any trace
of smile on her pretty face. You
wouldn't expect carpenters to go in
there to lay flooring while the lion
ramped or champed back and forth
over their STOPPING bodies! Don't be
simple. JIM"

selling so many thousand feet Of pine
or oak lumber! But honestly. I
wouldn't marry fellow who was
afraid TO go up in ftrst-class plane'
You don't know that 1t Is first

You only bought 1t second-hand--at
least that fellow told you he bought
it new. but he hadn't the bill OF

Suddenly Jim made a queer etaciila-

the receiver on the hook.
Bob, old fellow!" he roared, you
didn't tell us that the attendant let

in there! Ths absolute idiot! Were
you scared pink"
well, no." said Bob modestly. "Of

NEW YORK, December THE
American Institute of Toy Makers is
holding its solemn annual session here
today. The only convention more
serious than this one is that OF the
American Press HumoristS' Association
a notoriouSly lugubriouS gathering. Ii
might be supposed that making pierrots
jumping Jacks and clowns would induce
certain vagaries and whimSies. and
that the president of the association
would at least turn a handspring before
starting his address. The Supposltlon
is all wrong The toy makers-unIlke
their distinguished predecessor OF
Nurenburg-are entirely free from all
occupational ailments.
There is a big drift toward industrial
toys The work of making juvenile
America steam shovel-conscious is a
mighty serious business. Adult stand
ards in houses, automobiles, furniture
and machinery are constantly rising,
and the toy makers must offer critical
youth snappy line of goods.
Want DemountabIe Toys.
The big department stores have made
an epochal discovery on their own ac-
count. They have learned that there
is a big demand among youngsters for
toys that can be taken to pieces.
Parents also have discovered that these
devices are a protection to the family
clock. Hence. there are all sorts OF
complicated little machines. equipped
with miniature monkey wrenches and
so they may be quickly
taken apart and-perhaps-reassembled.
The merchants are doing a rushing
business.
