Peterson, wellknown Miami horticulturist, who has been experimenting with tropical plants for the last 15 years, contemporary with other scientists of tropical research, has just disclosed a vast store of knowledge on the papaya as a remedy for stomach troubles. Through experimentation it has been found that papain, the white milky sap of the papaya, has the same effect upon the stomach as does pepsin, but with greater efficiency and quicker results. Tests have revealed that a drop of dry papain will dissolve a square inch piece of steak in two minutes. The discovery of papaya was synonymous .with the discovery of Central America, its native soil, hundreds of years ago. Coast plntfes used it for food, but upon the annihilation of the pirates the papaya was forgotten. Forty years ago it was rediscovered and during the last few years has made great strides in the health food markets. Today its demand is so great in local sections that little of U has been shipped North. It £an be prepared in so many ways that each preparation will have a distinct taste like cherry, peach, apple, plum or rhubarb pie. Likewise it is made into jellies, candy, salads, fruit cockr tails, and preserves. -rs * •- Ice Man Finds Rival * in Carbonic "Dry Ice" K«w York.--The ice man, who has been dealing with the hard eold fact of competition from mechanical sources, has a new rival--"dry ice."

MAXEY ^ • A Master Time Teller WHEN It cotnes to telling time accurately and in a wholesale manner, that mammoth time teller located high up in the Metropolitan tower la Madison square, New York, probably occupies first place In the ranks of clockdom in America. This clock is "up In the air." Its faces, of whicb there are four, are almost 300 feet above the street. Obviously, they look out over a large portion of the metropolis and the surrounding communities--It having been said that "within range are visible the homes of over one-sixteenth of the entire population of the United States"--and down upon the passing multitudes. Each of its faces are 26% feet in diameter. The figures on them are 4 feet high. This clock does not keep time. It merely tells time. The time Is kept by another clock in the same building, transmitted to It by electrical Impulses and this clock, simply though proudly, passes the time along to the public. On the quarter hours the Monogram and Crown •§fr Hand Made in McHenry I ;;;. at S irst of All a Drug Store" 000 women representing our 427 units in Illinois selling the veteran made | other clock puts into operation elecpoppies," Mrs. Duncan said. "Service trical Impulses which cause huge hammen confined to hospitals h&)ve been working on the poppies for the last four months. The number of flowers made by them exceeds the production of many years past and we have faith that the people of Illinois will respond to the plea of the service men's organizations for the purchase of the poppies. "Five thousand veterans are benefited directly by the sale of the poppies. These men are distributed in twenty institutions in Illinois. The problem of helpng the veterans becomes more acute as time goes on. Mental cases albne have increased ninety percent since the period immediately following the close of the war. The help which is extended to the ex-service men through the sale of the poppies is not confined to members of the Legion. It all goes to all veterans in need of care regardless of affiliation with any service men's organisation. Their families, and dependents likewise are helped." mers to strike large bells which announce the time; in the notes of the historic Cambridge chimes. The four bells of the chime weigh 13,500 pounds. As night fall approaches, nt any time for which the mechanism is set, the time-keeping clock closes a switch and the faces of the time-telling clock become brilliantly illuminated. «§, 1018.
