GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES. While we are
dreading and resolving, and wishing, golden
opportunities are passing swiftly by. If we
would catch them we must be up and doing.
The great fountain Of love implanted within
our hearts must be kept open and allowed to
flow forth freely, If we would keep it's water
pure and sweet. Though we have not the
riches of the earth with which to contribute
to the worlds evangelization, or to relieve the
wants Of the poor and needy, but We can give
that which is far better and more enduring to
many hearts-precious words Of loving SYM
pathy. We can extend the warm and friendly
liand-clasp, we can give rhe encouraging and
cheering smile, which shall make glad and in
splre new hope in many an aching, suffering
heart.

MISCELLANY.

RArsrSs. Spain is the greatest producer Of
raisins. Those styled Valencia raisins find
great favor with AL classes of English people
A few years ago crop of twelve thousand
tons, for the supply of the world, was con-
sidered large; now London receives twelve
thousand tons out of total of twenty thou
sand tons that are grown.
Tho improvement in the article most OBJ
scrvable of latesyears is that OF removing the
stalks before shipment.
Muscatel or table raisins, from Malaga,
vary widely in quality. They are known as
"layers, bunch" and Hloose . raisins, the
best being picked from the stalk. This sort
is largely used in America. The finest
growth of Muscatels come to this country in
decorated boxes, with colorcd paper and lace
cdgings. increasing the expense of packing TO
the extent of one dollar and twenty-five cents
per ton.
The Sultans raisins, produced in Turkey,
are cured in the sun, a light sprinkling of oil
being employed to prevent the too great evap-
Grafton of the moisture, and also to assist in
preservation of the fruit when packed and
shipped.
