burns sustained when he fell Into a
bucket of scalding hot water which
was being used in doing the family

The accident ocourred at the Mensch
home at 8:80 o’clock Monday morning.
The mother was engaged in the usual
Monday morning's washing. A buck-
et of scaldiog hot walter had been
placed on the floor, and the little fel-
low was plaging about the room with
an older brother, Just how be fell in-
to the water is not known, since there
were no eve witnesses to the accident
save the small children, t Is pre
sumed that while walking backwards
he struck the bucket and fell into the
scalding water, The burns extended
from beneath the armos to the knees
and were so severe that when a dootor
attempted to take the clothes off the
child the flesh came off also. The
little tot emitied a ehriil cry at the
moment of the eccident and then ree
wained quiet, although consclous, ur.

Thé banana is a tropical fruit, Io

abundance apa the cost Is compare
tively little in labor to sustain the
trees, Its flavor ie generally liked by
men, It is nouriehing se it contains
one and three-tenths per cent pre-

twenty-two per cent corbohydratee,
with a full value of four hundred and

In Rio de Janeiro, Bouth Americas,
the forests of theese tall dignified trees
present an attractive sight, The
leaves are not as beautiful as those of
the herd-wood trees of our colder cli-
mates which shed their folisge in the
fall of year and sleep until the warm
sun starts the eap circulating sore
what as the blood circulates through
man's vascular syetem. Foliage of
tropical vegetation that is exposed the
entire year around to winds, bot sune,
ete., is thereby faded and damaged uc-
til it is not comparable to cur freeh
spring growth.
In tropics the fruit ie left on the ba-
nana tree until thoroughly ripe, and
the natives are pariiculsr to cook it
before eating, as it is otherwise hard
to digest, But iu order to allow of
shippiog, it is packed green, Then it
is sent all over the civilized world to a
people who, even to this day, do not
know bow to handle it.
The beautiful yellow fruit is sttrac-
tive and therefore is placed on our ta-
bles to be eaten raw. This le often in-
jarioue, as it causes indigestion, The
fruit, when fit to eat, has many black
spols on the skin and sometimes even
the whole skin becomes black, This
indicates that it has ripened, Even
in thie state, however, iL is not as ess
ily digestible as when cooked,
The small dealers purchase the fruit
green and, to hasten the ripening of
some to sell at once go as to get their
money back quickly, resort to differ-
ent methods, Oue is to put it io their
bede so that the heat of the body will
mage it marketable pooner. This ls »

Our children are often made eick by
eativrg the raw fruit and are not infre-
quently poisoned by the dirt they get
off the skior. The banspe, however,
intelligently bandied, is of vital im-
portance to our economy and should be
eaten even more generally than it is in
these times of conservation of food
