Notwithstanding thelarge increase of fruit growing, the bulk of our people do not have as inueh fruit as they could enjoy, nor as much as would conduce.. to health. T once exhibited at the county fair a large number of fine new grapes. What most impressed me was the greed of all sorts of people to get a bunch, as soon as the hour dame for breaking up the exhibit. Boys and girls, especially, begged for a few, Nothing is more easily grown than a grape- vine, It will almost take caro of itself, if you will Give it a reasonable chance ; and then, having been trimmed on very simple principles for three years, you can let it run over a tree, a shed, a barn, or a trellis, Keep its feet cleanof weeds, and well shod with ashes and.manure, and you will have enough to eat. Of course a neat trellis through your garden is better, and the best vulture brings the best returns. But the hungry people ! They live on meat at ten cents a pound, when a pound of grapes at six cents would go quite as far, andbe more enjoyable. We can live al- most altogether on fruits, and live well and be strong. I know this, for I have tried an experiment, I have three boys, one ten, one eight, and one four years old. Not one of them has ever tasted meat, butter, or pastry, and only the simplest of cake. They haveallthe fruit they can eat, and what vegetables they prefer, with milk,' eggs, and finit-puddings. They are solid, large• built, enduring, active, healthy. Thev donot know the meaning of headache or, in- digestion. Their minds areexceedingly' as tive, energetic, quiok to learn,and reten- tive. Their tempers are never violent and never vicious: I have notdiad the least difficulty with precocious vice, although very watchful. I do not undertake to attribute all that is positive in them . to their diet, but I do attribute the absence of many ills to the fact that their stomachs have never been impaired by pastry and grease. Nine child- ren out of ten are dyspeptics at six years of age. They are never quite free from. stomach, bowel, and head difficulties.

A boy that will squeeze and bruise apples as he takes what he needs, should be taught better. Give them free range, and teach them horticultural refinement. One of the morals of a lover of fruit is to handle it tenderly. I will not even sell my choice pears to a man who bounces them'' into baskets like so many cobble -stones. • 2t takes brains to originate new and fine fruits, and brains to pick and handle them. The lack of common sense in fruit culture is shownin no other department of produc- bion. Any family could easily find on a quarter acre, opportunity, 'to raise an abun- dance of plums, apples, cherries, pears, grapes, currants, berries; and the expense of cultivation would be more than covered yearly by the saving. in doctor's bills • and butcher's bills. Try it. Let parents bring up their children on natural principles. They will heartily accord, you may rely open it. My' own cannot be induced to touch flesh and butter. Fruit -cooking is not understood in 'a tithe of even our farmers' families. During the last year, I have eaten, or tried to eat, such dishes as these: Astrachan apples sliced, skin and all, into a skillet, and fried in grease. Here were cores, apple -skins, and grease; only .a perverted taste could endure such stuff. Apple -dumplings, again, have beenset before me, consisting of half- 000ked apples, in a lump of heavy boiled dough. Being excessively hungry, I atea portion, and was a dyspeptic for two days. I have great sympathy for Professor Swing's horror of pies. They contain nightmares innumerable. Some vegetables are only fruits that grow on the ground. Thepump- kin and squash are such, as well as melons. There is great excuse for a real Ontario pumpkin pie, or a good squash pie ; but they are, quite as good made into puddings without pastry.Try it.

I m neither a vegetarian nor a fruitarian, yet I am convinced we should all do quite as well, and moat of us much better, if we confined our diet to milk, eggs, fruits, and vegetables. Some one saying to Thoreau that such food would not give strength, be asked him how, then, the oxen that he was driving, man- aged to pull out the stumps? Curiously,'.. the questioner, like manyothers, had not observed that carnivorous habits of eating were not essential to. strength. Belf Control. It is a very meagre conception of self -con trol thatwould limit it to the simple m le re- strain, of outward expression. Yet this is frequently 'the only idea which the word calls up. The passionate man who puts back the angry word that rises to his lips, the inquisitive man who refrains•from asking impertinent questions, the loquacious man who imposes a painful silence on himself, the vain man who congeals hia self -admira- tion, the excited man who hides his per- turbed emotions under a clam exterior, are cited as illustrations of self.control, and no deeper or wider meaning is attached to it. Yet, in truth, these and similar efforts of repression, while belonging. to self-control, partaking of its nature and hinting of its presence, no more comprehend it, than the faint perfume, of a blossom comprehends the entire plant which bore it ; for they have to do only with the phenomena which self presents to the world, whereas self- control has to deal with the real self, its manifold faculties, complex characteristics, delicate variations, A Fair Financier.

By adding gelatine, which absorbs ton times ite weight of water, the cousin- tenoy of the butter is retained and the water adulteration is not noticed. It is not ueeesaary to have different metals to obtain a current of electricity. Iron in nitric aoid, the two fluide. being epareted by a porous partition, will give a current, one plate westing away while the other is thickened. Steam and gas fitters have just learned that graphite properly prepared is superior to red lead for making joints and connec- tions. It is said that this article will not "set" under ;anyconditions, but that it makes a perfect joint and preserves the iron from rust William C. Kingsley, projector of the Brooklyn bridge, estimated many years ago, in the infancy of the enterprise, that 36,000,000 persons per annum would re- present its maximum capacity, and that this number of people would be using the bridge in 1900. Already 27,500,600 people cross the bridge, and at the present rate of increase Mr. Kingsley's estimate may be reached in 1800, ten years before the time fixed by him. Freshly -made glue is stronger than that which has been repeatedly melted. Too large a quantity should not, therefore, be made at a time. Glue may freed from the foreign animal matter generally in it by softening it in cold water, washing it with the same several times, till it. no longer ;gives out any color, then bruising it with the band, and suspending it in a;linen bag beneath the surface of a large quantity , of water at 66 degrees Fahrenheit. By doing this the pure gine is retained in the bag and the soluble impurities pass through. If the softened glue be heated to 122 degrees without water and filtered, some other impurities will be retained by the filter, and a colorlese solution of glue be obtained. A new idea is a bed -spring which shall serve as a fire escape in time of danger. It consists of four sets of springs, seven feet long and just wide enough when laid to- gether to set in a bed frame. Each set is attached to the adjoining one by a clamp, which unites iron appendages fastened to the end of the springs. These appendages add to the length of the arrangement so as to make it about thirty feet long while hanging out of the window: One side of each set of springs is fitted with rung made of wrought iron, the only part of the contrivance not of steel. The rungs, which are on the outside when the springs depend from the window, and about fifteen inches apart, form a pretty strong ladder, wihioh may be made use of for descent. A Brave Young Lad. A letter from Rome to the Philadelphia Bulk tin says the return to Italy from Abys- sinia of Count S alimbini, Major Piano and the twelve -year-old son of the latter, who have been Ras Alula's prisoners for so many months, has created a consid'rable sensa- tion. The chief interest is perhaps centred upon the boy, who is described asbaving displayed the courage andfirmness of a man through all the vicissitudes and hardships endured. The only time when he broke down was, it appears, when chains were put upon the prisoners for the first time and he found himself fettered hand and foot to an Abyssinian lad of about his own age who was to be henceforth, sleeping or wak- ing, his inseparable companion. But he soon recovered his sang froid and helpless as he was physically, soon established a sort of ascendency over the negroea who used tot ome and go to his hut, and would' rate then rate soundly :,ifthey displeased him as they some times did by coming to beg for some of his clothing , His father had managed to keep 'for ' him, as indeed all the prisoners tried to do, two or three jerseys; to be worn one over the other as a protection against the dangers of i lying on the damp floor of their prison huts! after the tropical heat of the day. To thiel the boy proably owed his complete immunity from illness during' his imprisonment,; he has returned quite bronzed and hardy- looking. ardylooking. He hadother advantages, though, which were not shared by the elder prison- ers. A woman's heart goes out to childhood, thank goodness ! all the world over, and Ras Mule's daughter took compassion on the brave little Italian boy, and did all she could to soften the rigors of his imprison- ment. It is certain that the fierce chief would have allowed no other living being to interfere withhis jealously guarded host ages, who were only released, as perhaps the reader may remember, in exchange for a thousand rifles belonging to Ras Alula, which hitherto the Italian officials bad not allowed to pass. He still retains Count Savoiroux, and, on the remonstrances of Major Piano and the others, who, at first refused to comeawayout their unfortun- ate comrade, he bid without "them begone or remain at their own peril, for he had no more to say to them. But young Emanuel Piano had, it appears, adieux of a softer kind, for he. shows witk some pride a little gold cross whichRas Alula's daughter gave him, say- ing .� Think of mg when•you are in Italy. , To Discover his Fate. Various projects are afloat in England for sending a small expedition to Khartoum to ascertain the actual fate of Gordon and to secure, if possible, the release of the hap- less whites who are prisoners there. Mr. Montagu Kerr, who was a member of the New York Stock Exchange before he dis- tinguished himself as an African explorer, , has been mentioned as the leader of the. I proposed expedition. The Soudanese have recently shown a disposition to palaver, if not .to submit, and ifptle new.M'andi is not nursing his wrath over the curt dismissal of the envoys he sent to Cairo last spring, it is possible that he,would give a safpasage to the expedition.

A Man Deiierts His wile,, Murzleri 411.011 ser Woman, Causes Trouble by Dying Suddenly,,, A Halifax despatch says :—A most ro- mantic story has just been made public here. Thirty-five years ago ,Joseph McGill desert- ed his wife and six children in Edinburgh and came to Halifax, but never communicated with his family or allowed them to learn of his whereabouts. He obtained employment on the Intercolonial Railway as locomotive driver, under the assumed name of Joseph McLellan. Twenty-five years ago he cont - 'flitted bigamy by tnarrying Margaret Tobin, of this city. They lived happily together, accumulated property and raised a family. Five years ago the Catholic M'issioners held service here, when McGill alias McLellan confessed to Father Wissell' thathe was guilty of bigamy and was now going under. au assumed name. Father Wiesell prohibit- ed marital relations with the seooud wife, For four years these were suspended, the couple LIVING UNGAR THE SAME ROOF with their children, but as strangers. The injunctions ofthe church and remorse of oon- soienoe finally compelled McGill to go to Edinburgh to enquire into the fate of his first wife and family. He wept last May, found his wife had been dead two years and four of his six children dead. To the two surviving children he revealed himself as their long -lost father, confessed the story of his bigamy and shame, but promised to pro- vide for them out of his accumulated prop- erty. Then he came bank to Halifax and privately remarried the woman whom' he had lived with a quarter of a century ns his wife. He was married tothis•woman both times under his true name of McGill, though still retainingamonghis friends and the hpublic the' assmed name f McLellan. On e llth of February last, he was instantly killed by falling from a locomotive and strik- ing his head on the sharp spout of an oil can. He was sixty-six years old, left no will, but his life was insured for three thousand dollars in the Locomotive Brotherhood As- sociation in the name of McLellan, They REFUSE TO PAY THE POLICY to his second wife, on the ground that the policy is payable to Margaret McLellan, whereas she is the widow of Joseph McGill. To complicatematters still further, deceased's eldest daughter, Mrs. Jane Fraser, arrived from Edinburgh, a few days ago, made affi- davits to the Probate Court, and has been granted the administration of her father's estate, but' the second wife and family are in possession and threaten a hot fight. The priest who recently remarried the .couple without license is liable to two hundred dol- lars' fine. ole Friends. It does old friends good to meet now and then, for they have a pleasure in it that they could hardly have guessed beforehand, and they ti,lhten up the threads of kindli- ness that for any reason had begun to slack- en. In these days of active, busy life, the friendships are not forgotten but they are apt to lose their freshness, simply for want of renewals by handshaking and kindly words. Itis possible that a correspondence is kept up for years, even a lifetime, by a few, but how many of us know of such a thing ? Usually, there is regular exchange of letters for a time, then an occasional neglect, followed by contrition and vows to do better, and then a total lapse from tdel-' ity, and frantic attempts to justifyit on the ground of "business". and the "exactions of a large family." The friendly feeling re- mains in such conditions, dulled, of course, as it must be, and with only a hasty thought of the one who used to be always in mind, and whose companionship in some form seemed to be necessaryto happiness. It prevents this degeneracof feeling to meet, see each other face to face, and quicken all the sensibilities by exchanges that shall be made vital by the aid of voice, tones, laughter, the eyes, and probably tears and the touch of the hand, which, though it is so much alike all the world over, has an in- dividuality in it that is quick and keen as a spiritual interpreter. If we show ourselves human and true we will gather new friends wherever we are and value and use them —even set them up against all others as ex- amples of kindness and congeniality—but there is something in the greeting again after many years of the friends of youth that, like the atmosphere of the early home, has nothing like it. Happy are they whose friends remain to them. It becomes very lonely when the roll of school and college days is called and there are only a few, far- off voices to answer. • An Armless Man. Recently there died at Pottsdam, New York, a wonderful man. An accident de- prived him of both arms, which were am- putated at the shoulder. He earned a liv- ing by usinghis feet and his mouth instead of hia arms. We are told that he owned a horse, of which he took the entire care, har- nessed it, fastened and unfastened the buck- les with hia teeth, and drove with the reins tied around his shoulders. Being in need of a waggon, he bought wheels and axles and built a box buggy complete and painted it. He went to the barn one winter day and built a cowstable, sawing the timber with his feet, and with the hammerin one foot and• holding the nail with the other, he nailed the boards on as well as most men could do with J their hands. He dug a well twelve feet,. deep and stoned it himself. He could move away hay by holding the fork under his chin and letting it rest against his shoulder. He could pick up potatoes in the field as fast as a man could dig them. He would dress himself, get his meals, write his letters, and, in fact, do almost anything thin that any man with , two hands could do. Many a man with all his physical faculties, unimpaired mourns because he cannot get along, and yet this armless brother made himself indepen- dent without arms or hands. He was like the Crimean hero, who, when his lower limbs were shot away, wrote to the woman he was engaged to marry, releasing her. She an- swered : I will marry you if you have enough body remaining to contain your noble soul. The Moral He Drew. Sunday school Teacher—" Who were the children of Israel?" Pupils-" Jews."

A very odd story, which, in spite of its. oddity, has been proved by the Paris police to be strictly true, was told by a drunken cook arrested for some petty offence in the streets of that capital. On being aearehod e.t the police station a considerable amount in gold was found in his pocket, which he at first declined to explain how he came by, but, being press ed to speak by the examining magistrate, he accounted for it thus: " Whilst sauntering near the Central Market, a few mornings previously, he was accosted by a well dressed individual, who, drawing him a little apart from the passers- by, enquired whether he would like to earn thirty thousand f ranee. He replied affirm- atively—provided ffirm- ativel - rovided it were honestly earned —andultimatelyaccompanied the stranger to a house in the Rue do Ritoili. The two entered a handsome apartment on the seoond floor, and the, door was closed; after that the stranger startled him by saying, abruptly, 'Mon garcon, you must kill me.' His companion believed him to be mad until he explained the rotate of the case—namely, , that he bad speculated with money be- longing to his mother ; had lost one hundred. and twenty thousand francs, and was de- termined not to survivehis disgace. But his life was insured for two hundred thousand francs, which, even if he died by his own hand would be forfeited, Therefore he wanted to be killed, and would pay the obliging person who killed him thirty thousand francs. He offered au instalment there and then of two thousand francs, which the man who related the story ac- cepted, :promising to return the following day to carry out his engagement. On reaching the house, however, his courage failed him, and the same evening—having drank too freely—he was arrested m a state of intoxication. The police, on proceeding to the house he indicated, found the mysterious : gentleman who 'bitterly ` re- proached his intended assassinwith breaking his word. He was taken into custody on the double charge of inciting to crime and seeking to defraud the insurance company." A Romantic Love Story. Said a Torentc floristthe other day : Last spring I used to notice a couple going by here—a fine, manly young fellow and a girl pretty and dainty, with lovely brown hair and dark -blue eyes. They didn't know each other, but when the young man went to business the girl was sure to be somewhere around where she'could see him. She lived right around the corner, and she used to come in here and pretend to be examining the flowers as he passed. Then "s'ne 'would look up and down and watch him as he went down the street. One day as he went by she looked up and said to me, 'Oh, what a funny hat 1' and then carelessly, as she began pick- ing among the flowers, 'I wonder who he is.' I came very near laughing, for the previous day the young fellow had been in to ask me who she was, and had sent her some flowers. About a week after she came in with a friend, and I heard her telling the friend how somebody had been sending her flowers every morning, and she did wish she could find out who it was. Well, the best part of it all came afterwards. One morning he came in as usual, and the gardener took him back in the conservatory. While he was there the girl entered and stood near the counter look- ing towards the window. Presently he re- turned, and as he started for the door brisk- ly he 'said "Well, send these flowers' as usual up to 24 ---street." Neither knew the other was near, and hearing the number of her house mentioned she turned around and they met face to face. "Well, I never saw such an embarrassed couple in all my days. She had a big jacqueminot near her face, and it would have been hard to tell which was redder, the rose or her cheeks. She turned to the flowers and he passed out. They didn't come any more, but not long ago I saw them going by together. They both looked in and when they saw me he laughed and she blushed. A Turtle in the Sea. Some years ago when doing a walking tour in England with a friend we left the pretty little seaside resort of D--, in Dev- onshire, for T--, five miles distant, also situated by the sea. As we were about leav- ing D—, I asked the hotel. proprietor on bidding him adieu if he could recommend us toancehotel at ou f next haltingplace.He our next the "King's Arms," saidweshould find the host a jolly fellow, and, above all, he was the only man in that part of the country who could give us a basin of real turtle soup, and cheap, too. We could scarce ly believe it and the few miles flew by in joy- ful anticipation of our first course. Arrived at the "Kings arms" we sought `• mine host," apparently a very genial soul, but to our intense surprise on mentioning turtle soup he flew into a towering rage, said we could see his bill of fair and if that didn't suit us' we could leave it. We should have thought him quite insulting and turned our backs upon him but were curious to know what angered him.We stayed, had a very good dinner, minus the soup, but saw no more of the proprietor during our short sojourn. Of the waiter, however, we inquired about the turtle soup and his abruptness to us. He smiled and said : "Well, I'll tell 'e, gen- tlemen. Some time ago there was a large dinner coming off here and master bought a fine turtle in London (which cost $25) about a week before the dinner, and boasted to everybody that he was goin, to 'surprise the natives.' Well, a day or so before the feast a gentleman told master the turtle would enjoy a sea bath, which would improve him for the soup, so master took him. down to the beach, tied a rope on his leg and sat down to watch his prize. Then," our informant "the old beggar ggar (master) dropped off to sleep, let go:the rope and. the turtle went off to sea and so boss has been teased to death about it, A Fortunate Escape. Lamartine the French poet was once visit. ed by a,deputation of " Vesuviennes," furi- ous female Rupublicans of the petroleuse type. The captain was the spokeswoman, She told him that the " •Vesuviennos' " had come to tell him how much they loved him. "There are fifty of us here,' she added, " andour mission is, in the name of all the others, to kiss you." This announcement made the poet shudder, The captain of the gang was tolerably good-looking, but the others' were a horrible -looking, half -drunken and half-crazy set of. viragoes.
