As any one who wanders Into "the

TUKltt: Is scarcely another food mj
well balanced Hi food elements and
so ilch In liody-hulldlng nutriment as tbo
ng. Tho fig Is suitable for all ages and
conditions, which probably accounts for
tho esteem In which Is has always been
held by Uastctn" people.
In nil Oriental countries the fig Is
considered ons of the moft precious
products on tho earth. It Is the only
tree that Is named In the Koranic de
scriptions of I'atidlse. Among the In
habitants of ancient Hjrla and Oreece
It formed ono of the principal articles
or food. At tho present time Its cultiva
tion Is carried on extenshcly In nearly
all Kaslcrn countries, as well ns In
Hpaln. southern Frnnre and some por
tions of the United States.
In this country dates are chiefly eaten
In the dry form, .although In California
and other regions they can bo obtained
fresh.
figs bold largo quantities of sugar,
especially hi llir dry state, where this
elelncnt Is not only concentrated, but
also changed In tho dr Ing process. They
also contain nitrogenous material, which
gives them a higher nutritive valuo than
most other fruits. A i.irge percentage of
Clueosc also is contained in the fig.

so many inaraci grades as uie hk i "
may pay tlvo cents for a uiree-quarter-
pound package or slxtj cents for thirty
ounces of fmyrua figs, and at almost any
price between tlicso two you can find
figs for your money.
The chief virtue of Kmrna figs, which
are considered tho best, Is this, that they
are packed so as not to split tho skin of
tho fruit. This makes them more Hanl
tary and at the same time retains their
full flavor.
l'lgs should never bo eaten directly
from the package, but should first be
cleansed by tho application of water.
If figs appear hard or tough they can
vety easily be tendered extremely pala
table by Immersion of from llvo to ten
minutes in very hot water, then gently
dried In n soft, clean cloth
' Wash the llgs In hot wotei. eut off
tho stem and blossom ends, plate in a
steamer or in a colander over hot water,
cover tightly ond steam tvvenU to thirty
minutes. Serve, with or without cream.
This Is one of tho mot dellelou-- ways of
serving figs.
