From earliest times this plant has
been cultivated for its oil, which is
obtained from the seeds. Research
ers say the plant was spoken OF in
the Bible in the book OF Jonah and
was called a gourd.
Even in those days the oil was used
for medicinal purposes and also in
the preparation of food for the table
and in the arts.
In the warmer climates the plant
grows to be the size of = small tree.
The branching Is from below the
flower clusters. The leaves are large,
growing alternate along the stem.
They are palm shaped with 5 to IL

Stories of the Masters
Ell GRECO

and strangely enough, the case was
decided in his favor.
He was back in court the next year.
The Toledo Cathedral had commits
stoned a picture of Christ despoiled
of His raiment. Ell Greco demanded
full payment though the brothers of
the church thought some reduction
was in order since the picture did not
altogether satisfy them. A reputable
judge Of painting was called in to set
tie the dispute. Alego de Montoya, a
renowned silver assayer, pronounced
the verdict: And seeing that the said
painting is one Of the best that have
ever seen, and if 1t were to be esti-
mated for its valuable quality, it would
be valued at much higher sum, do
order that Garcia de Loaysa in the
name OF the holy church, shall pay to
the said Dominica Theotocopoulis $500
reals" Ell Greco made no changes in
the picture and collected in full.
In spite of such bitter debate among
his clients. Ell Greco became rich-he
is even supposed to have hired mu-
sicians to play for him while he had
his meals. He painted portraits and
executed orders in duplicate of favor
ite subjects, sometimes painting 20 or

terpieces of art because OF The Stars

n palIltcTS,
and made conquest OF at least one
novelist. In Somerset Maugham's "Of
Human Bondage" the her, whose un-
happy love affair has held him a
slave for SO long a time, sees the
toledo" of Ell Greco: He could not
take his eyes off it. He felt strangely
that he was on the threshold of some
new discovery in life. He was trem-
ulous with sense of adventure. He
thought for an instant of the love that
had consumed him: love seemed very
trivial beside the excitement which
now leaped in his heart"
A painting beside which love can
seem trivial may be depended upon to
bring whole troops focking. And in
deed, in the uncroWded halls of the
Metropolitan Musum where it hangs,
there are always earnest observers be-
fore it.
But this to-do would not have sur
prised Ell Greco. He was a naughty
and scornful soul, appraising himself at
his just value at once, according to the
record, though since he went un-
honored and unsung in his own time
the record was not too carefully kept.
What We do know Of the facts read
this way: Domenicos Theotocopoulis
Of Crete came to Italy as young man
of about 49, A letter to Cardinal
Farnese- -Viterbo-it is dated 1870
says: There has arrived in Rome a
young man from Gambia, disciple OF
Titan, who in my opinion is painter
Of rare talent; among other things he
has painted q portrait of himself.
which causes wonderment to all the
painters in Rome. I should like him
to be under the patronage of your
illustrious and reverend lordship," end
ing with request for a room for the
young man near the top in the
Farnese Palace" Nothing more is
known of the Roman visit. When next
he is heard of, he has settled in
Toledo and is known as The Greek.
It is 1877 and he has returned from
his unsuccessful short service to the
King in Madrid. There is word of a
Dona Geronimo de las Cubas, his
wife, or at least the mother of his
son, Jorge Manuel born in 1877. There
is, finally, record of his death in
1914, registered under the name of
Dominica Greco. He left no will and
today there is no mark upon his
grave. There is, in fact, no known
grave.
In between and enlivening the facts,
there are chiefly court proceedings
He was always going to law. First it
was kind of sales tax that he OBJ
jected to. In the darkest days of the
Inquisition. when fear rode uppermost
In mems minds, Ell Greco strode fear

What YOU SHOULD
KNOW ABOUT
FACE PIMPLES

These disfiguring little spots often
result from 4 slight, temporary dis
turbance, or merely from incorrect
cleansing, or sometimes they are
more persistent due to deeper in
ternal causes.
While properly treating the un-
derlying cause, you can relieve the
itchy, burning soreness and help
your skin by using an ointment that
will keep the medication in contact
with the pimply spots. Apply it
every night and leave it on all
night. 1t does a world of good.
For more than 40 years people
have used Resinol Ointment to fill

At last an inventor has come for

ever the drudgery out Of slide trom-

The Patent Office has issued to
Antonio Adriani of New York a patent
for sawed-off slip-horn, referred to
technically as a "short-positioned
trombone"
The long reach of the trombone,
