APPLES
In Western and Cen,trala , Ontario',
Nova Scotia, end Brttislt; Columbia,
whore tile apple is largely, grown,
the trees nave had a. profusion of
bloom end early, medium and late
varieties all promise a. good to full
crop. The prospect was never better
in. the famous. Annapolis Vadley.
The. Fameuse, which is thee leadiog
.market variety int Eastern Ontario
and .Quebxe is likely to give
a heavy crop. Baldwins and. Spies
ween to have suffered more than any
other standard varieties( froan the
severe winter.
PEARtee
Both early and late pears hetvo an
abundance of bloom int' the Ontario
fruit belt, but prospects are only
_medium in tbe other peat(' growing
districts of Ontario. blevat Scoria
growers are looking forward to
Leavy crops of both early ena trite
varieties, while, the reports from
British COlutnbia and Prince Edward
Island are satisfactory.
PLUMS, AND, PEACHES
1h'l'orts iud oats at mediumc •ro`
plums in the Niagara and Essex, dis-
tricts and a light yield in the rest
of Ontario, except for Japan and: Nat-
ive varieties. Novae Seotitt has ex-
cellent; prospects for a full crop,
while the other provinces send, re-
ports of madiurn yields. The ma-
jority of the growers say that peach -
ON pre a total failure, but occasional
orchards will give a light crop.
OTHER FRUITS,
A medium yield is all that growers
seem to auticipa,te in the chief grape
growing seceeins. Strawberries ap-
pear to promise an ea.verage crop i.n
all districts except the fruit belt of
Ontario wvhen.% Many , plantations
winter killed badly and the yield will
be light. Raspberries are excellent in
Nova S.eotia,! 'fele-e 'Brunswick and
British Columbia, while other prov-
iates expect an average yield. Cher-
ries are good in the southern part of
Ontario, ,'bat irreg.-tiler in the remain-

LIVELY TIME AT

married Tuesday in the little St.

Rooscvelti and, others were Jier
bridesmaids:
There; lass not been anything in
years at wli ch the general public kvg
so ,much fun, There was mobbing of
the, bride by scores of women, there
was a sacking e,2 tiro church after

were spectators perched in trete and
on fences, and there were twenty en-
terpiesi ng, dee-smokers who came 'stir

to gathc}- hints from the gowns of
the guests. Finally there were
heartburnings And jealousiesi among
the guests themselves as to whom of
those: at the church had been invites
to elle reception afterwaards.
To get to the church it wes necos-
sary to pass through a sixty -foot
canvas ;tunnel erected for the protec-
tion of the guests dismounting from
carriages. •s. About 50 guests entered

tiles ;tunnel at the same time, but,
upon arriving at this church ,toor,
fuune it locked, Then they ,started
to ire treat, but fou;4d this .in,possible,
as scores of others had started, to
follow into the church and the throng
Of curiosity seekers plccked the Gan -
vas ;tunnel completely. For ten min-
uses the early guests were squeezed
and half suffocates inthis, canvas
priaen. 'Then, as the churchi doors
still remained' closed„ .some of the
WLetX.cn raised the canvas from the
taoaone and crawlca out. They were
hot end exhausted and their tempers
were tis ba;dly ruffled as their gowns.
The tfirst of the wedding pasty to

women acreame:d, fighting their way

wrestling their way to the front. •

Whelan stepped irornz 'thei carriage.
Despite doer proitection' of several

CONTENTMENT.
(Eugene Field.)
Happy the man that when his day is
done,
Lies down to sleep with nothing of
regret—
The battle be has fought may not be
won—
The tanne•he sought be just as fleeting
yet;
Folding at last, hie hands upon his
breast,
Happy he id, if hoary and forespent,
He sinks into the last, eternal rest,
Breathing these only words: "I ani
content."
But happier ho, that while his blood is
warm
Seas hope and friendships dead about
him lie—
Bert's his brave heatt to envy's bitter
storm,
Not shunt the 'poisoned darts of cal-
nniny;
And 'mid it All stands sturdy and elate,
Girt only in the arinor God hath meant
For him who, 'moth the buffetinga of
fate,
Oen gay to God and Alan: "I at con.

The trustees, secretary, and other
officers of the Free Hospital for Consump-
tives at Muskoka aro daily in receipt of
many piteous litters.
A few days since Mr. W. J. Gage, of
Toronto, Chairman of the Executive
Committee of the National Sanitarium
Aseoeistion, received a letter from a
resident of Quebec, pleading for the ad-
mission of a victim of the dread white
plague, livinqg,, about a hundred miles
south -oast of Montreal, and asking if it
were not possible to admit her into the
Free Hospital. The writer says: " The
applicant is a Mrs. Wm. Paterson, the
mother of fear children and the wife et a
farmer in s place called Goshen, in the
township of Windsor. The doctor says
that her left lung only is troubled. She
is able to go about, but her appetite is
very bad. I believe if she could be ad.
mitted into the Free Hospital for Con-
sumptives she might be cured. She could
not pay much, if anything. Kindly let
me know if you could rem** her."
We are told by. Mr. Gage that applies -
tions for admission to the Free Hospital
reach the secretary from all pointe in the
Dominion, and patients have been re-
ceived from Prince Edward Island on the
east to Alberta on the west. Two-
hundred
wohundred and twenty-five patients have
been admitted in eighteen months, and
not a sin le patient ha* been refuted

We tau hardly think of any charity
that appeals snots pathetically for the
support of the Canadian people.

war Cut Apples T.ra enter..
The rapid change of color In cut ap-
ples is due to ebetuical Action on the
exposed surface of tbe tipple after the
free admission of oxygen and not, as.
was once supposed, to the presence et.
micro-organisms, for if apple pulp is
sterilized and filtered the same thing
happens. The juice of an apple not
only contains water, sugar and various
acids, but a stnreb which fertne
'when exposed to the air.
Lindet holds that the fermenting
matter and the acids also are in dlr.
ferent cells In the uncut apple, but are
brought into contact as soon as It le
cut. This is, however, not to the point,
as the fermenting matter can only at-
tack
ttack the aromat?c body in the presence
of oxygen. So long as the skin of the
apple is whole no change can take
place. but immediately tbis is wound-
ed the oxygen begins Its work, carbons
dioxide is evolved, and the reddlslt
brown appearance sets in, especially;
on unripe fruit.
Why the Mexicans Call Cs Grissom.
In the southwest. especially along the
Mexican border, Mexleans are vulgarly
called "greasers" by the American Celt -
boys and ranchers. The Mexicans have
retaliated by contemptuously referring
to the Americans as "gringos," uncon-
scious
nconscious that they are using a word of
American origin first Applied to theiu-
selves.
During the Mexican war the army of
Santa Anna was composed mostly of
Indian peons who could neither shoot,
drill nor fight. To distinguish these igno-
rant recruits from the trained regulars
the Americans called them "greenies,"
and the Mexicans, with their Latin
pronunciation, converted it into first
"greens," then "gringos." Later they
applied it to those troin whom they bad
first heard it, thinking it meant some-
thing especially bad.
Gunpowder Dogs.
It Is possible to weave a very attract
tivo fabric—as regards appearances, at
least—out of ordinary gunpowder. The
cloth looks very much like silk and
when ignited instantly disappears with-
out leaving a trace behind.
The fabric is used for snaking bags to
hold gunpowder, which in this shape
are loaded into big guns. When the
bags are of canvas, as is customary,
they are not consumed by the explo-
sion, and what remains of thein after
firing has to be removed from the pow-
der chamber of the weapon. But If
gunpowder bags he substituted for ean-
vas the sacic actually becomes part of
the explosive charge, and no trace of it
is left after the shot has sped.
Sound Enjoyment.
The spirit of modern live is to plunge
Into experiences vigorously and get the
most from thein. This was the spirit
that animated the man who preferred
tough beefsteak because there was
more "chew to it." Similarly virile was
the attitude of Mr. Skillings, wbo had
come to town to order a new faintly
carriage.
"Now, I suppose you want rubber
tires?,. said the nr€'nt.
"No, sir," replied Mr. Skillings. "My
folks ain't tbat kind. When we're rid-
ing we want to know it."
