As one faces the palace, the cathe

all the quirks and turn of life's for
tunes, run through the theme of Lima's
life as the woof runs through the
warp of a tapestry and give it both
color and pattern.
To the site of Lima, 385 years ago,
.ame Francisco Pizarro, he who had
been & foundling upon the steps of a
church In the Spanish elty of Trujillo,
then a humble hog herder in Estrema-
dura, and later an illiterate adventurer
at Panama. But finally he was the
grim leader who deflected the course
of history at Gallo, the triumphant
conqueror who mastered the Inca war
rlor host at Cajamarca, the modern
Midas who made his ancient prototype
turn over in an envious grave.
And he was laden with the blood:
stained treasure which Atahualpa paid
for the freedom never received.
Treasure Amassed by Pizarro.
Gold! What uncounted gold he
prought down to finance the building
of his new capital! Had not the Inca
monarch so desperately desired his
Iiberty that he undertook to fill a room
22 by 17 feet with it, as high as he
could reach? And had not Pizarro,
smiling grimly, chalked his tiptoe
reach at nine feet?
And silver! Yes, the Inca had heen

Pizarro's avarice that he offered two
roomfuls of the white metal for good
measure,
Pizarro, Indeed, had exacted the
greatest king's ransom in history. It
was so much that even the humblest
cavalier received $105,000 (in terms of
American money) for his share in the
exploits of Cajamarca, so time-dimmed
records tell us,
Quzco then, even ag Now, was No
place for a capital of a country that
needed contact with the sea. Tt Is

two miles and with mightiest ram-

So to the site of Lima Plzarre came

swineherd had lived to be the first

Nor have four centuries sufficed to re-
veal a better site than he selected for
the capital of Peru.
San Lorenzo thrusts its island heights
boldly out of the sea, shutting out the
long Pacific rollers and making a
good harbor hard by, on a coast pecul-
jarly lacking in safe havens for ships.
San Cristobal as boldly rears its great
head out of the plain and makes a
magnificent sentinel for the city that

his liberty. In the Chapel of the

ALUMINUM COOKING
UTENSILS NOT DANGEROUS.
From time to time the Department
of Health reecives letters expressing
the fear that the use of aluminum
cooking vessels are a menace to
health.
In a recent number of the Health
Bulletin of the Department of Public
Health, State of Victoria, Australia,
Park Rowan, M. D., D. P. H, gives
an excellent review of the pertinent
literature on this subject.
Aluminum is present in practically
every plant, some plants containing
large amounts, the ash of maize,
for example, containing 12 per cent
of aluminum, his report says. No
ill effects are observed when even
large amounts of aluminum are fed
to experimental animals.
Chittenden, Taylor and Long
found no influence on health by the
administration to humans of 150
milligrams of alumium compounds
with food daily for several months.
Industrial surveys have failed to de-
tect specific trouble among the
workers in the aluminum industry.
Cushing states that even the largest
quantities of alum ingested are fol-
lowed only by gastric symptoms and
inflammation and long use does not
elicit symptoms of chronic poison-
ing: Flynn and Inoue found no
evidence to support the alleged dan-
gers of aluminum cooking vessels.
No anemia or destruction of blood
cells was observed.
These authors state that there is
no scientific evidence of any chronic
poisoning taking place from food
cooked in aluminum vessels.
Experiments conducted in the
Lancet laboratories showed that
there was no evidence that in ordi.
nary cooking aluminum isso strong-
ly attacked as to produce objection-
able amounts of soluble salts. In
no case was more than a mere trece
of aluminum found in subsequent
analysis. Even if such corrosion is
considerable, it is insignificant since
the product of corrosion would con-
sist only of that which is a common
constituent of almost every ordinary
food, as well as of drinking water.

City of the Kings Founded.
Epiphany Sunday in the year 17535
dawned, and amid the reverent re
joicings of that sacred day Pizarro
announced the site and christened his
capital-to-be Cludad de los Reyes,
City of the Kings, the reference being
to the three Wise Men of the East, a
suggestion that still finds perpetuation
in the flag of Lima.

petual guard over the Brighton of the
west coast, Chorrillos. Beyond stands

the fertile valley of the Lurin.
