THE VERSATILE TOMATO To the legal authority, the toâ€" mato is a ve&:tlable‘ To the boâ€" tanist it is a fruit, but to the wise homemaker it is both, for it may be used as either. It is the garâ€" dener‘s favorite too, as almost every garden boasts at least a few plants. And since tomatoes are mu!ul now, you‘ll want to use as often and in as many ways as you can. First of all, it is important that you make a good choice in buyâ€" ing your tomatoes. The home ecoâ€" nomists of the Consumer Section, Canada Department of Agriculâ€" ture say it is wise to buy tomaâ€" toes which are wellâ€"formed, firm, lump and smooth. They should gave good red color and be just ripe rather than under or overâ€" ripe. If you find a few irregularâ€" ly shaped tomatoes among those you have bought, use them for stewing, or if your tomatoes are underripe, ripen them at room temperature instead of on a winâ€" dow sill. There are two reasons for thisâ€"the summer sun is too hot, and too much sunlifht may actually prevent the colour deâ€" veloping or make the color splotchy. Since light is not necesâ€" sary to produce good red color, the kitchen cupboard is the right temperature and it makes a &ood place for ripening tomatoes. While the refrigerator is the best place for storing ripe tomatoes, underâ€" ripe ones should not be kept in the refrigerator as the cold stops the ripening and the tomatoes beâ€" come watery. As for serving tomatoes, the possibilities for using this versaâ€" tile food are unlimited. What is better than vineâ€"ripened tomaâ€" toes for salads!

As an adult, reading some of the old tales that were MM loved and often read in â€" hood, one experiences some shock at the bloodflurax content of many of the tales. And yet, readâ€" ing them as a child, they did‘n’t seem the least bit too gory for !nu:iot consumption. In fact, readâ€" some of them over now 1 am surprised at the blood and gore that is featured so prominently, and even more surprised that 1 didn‘t remember the tales as beâ€" ing that way. That, to be, is the clue t6 the argument. Perhaps u:cdy are a bit sensational from the adult‘s point of view who is reading them to a child, but the fact that the adult had forgotten those parts of the tales seems to indicate that the gore didn‘t make a lasting impresâ€" sion. Just the other day my husband spotted a copy of "Tom Thumb" which I had recentluurchued. He exclaimed that it been one of his favorite stories and could hardly wait to read it to Steve. He was astounded and somewhat shocked at some of the horrible things that happened to poor Tom and kept u{ing that he was sure the "Tom Thumb" he had read wasn‘t like that. At least he didn‘t remember it as such. And {e! it was the original manuscript. t was just that it didn‘t shock his senses as a child, only as an adult.

In fact the two princes think so much of their motherâ€"inâ€"law that they invite her to live with them in their castle. 1 suppose they will soon have Cinderella surrounded by a loving family and Bluebeard will no lon%er dispose of his many wives by forceful means but will mereâ€" ly obtain a divorce in the civilized (?) manner!
