THE PULLBACK.


A little Pullback sought one day
). The gates of Paradise;
ST. Peter wiped his spectacles
And rubbed his ancient eyes.
And tbrongs Of female angels came
with curious gaze the while.
Intent, as ladies always are,
To see the latest style.
The Saint put on his glasses then
And an observation took;
"What. whatv' he said, this traverses
The laws Of "musn't look,'' ia
"Tied back in front! piled up behind!
Twill never do, I fear!
The thing is too ridiculous
You cannot enter here" ~
q What did she do? My curious friend.
She got behind tree;
And in a jiffy she was dressed,
40 AS angels ought to be. .as
st. Peter kissed her then, and said,
"Pass in my little dear:
But mind, you mustn't Introduce
H.. Such naughty fashions here"

WOMAN.

While Adam slept God from him took
A bone; and, as an omen,
He made it like a seraph look
And thus created woman.
He took this bone, not from his pate,
To show her power ample;
Nor from his foot, to designate
That he on her might trample;
But meath his arm, to clearly show
He always should protect her;
And near his heart, to let him know
How much he should respect her.
He took this bone-crooked enough
Most crooked of the human
To show him how much crooked stuff
He'd always find in woman.

BANANAS AND PINE-APPLES.

Bananas and pine-apples are health
full fruit, and may be eaten at any
time or any season Of the year, should
the sytem be in order. The prejn-
dice that exists in the minds OF some
that bananas and pine-apples are I'M
healthful and that in some manner
they induce feyers is unfounded. The
fact is just the reverse, as can be at
tested by persons who have visited
or lived in the Indies, either East or
West. The extremely healthy Ba-
hama Islands produce the great bulk
OF pine-apples exported to the United
States. In those islands it is no un-
common sight to see the stevedores
or showers of cargo making their en-
tire meal from the pine-apples while
laboring aboard. With a sheath
knife they cut the skin off lengthwise
and slice and eat it entire. 1t is
bread. meat, and water for a meal,
without limit as to quantity and gov
erned by appetite only. AS eaten by
the natives the fruit is not in as ripe
condition as when received in our
own markets
For shipment, Of necessity, the
fruit is cut perfectly gre en-, and not
withstandlng, it is at once edible
without injurious effects. The nm
aoolimatcd stranger can eat his fill

We subscribed for your paper
about year ago; one Of our reasons
for taking it was because we liked it,
inasmuch as it gave the women a
chance to tell their grievances, as
well as the men; another reason, we
thought we would improve ourselves
by writing for the Woman's Depart
ment !; we have shamefully neglected
our privilege and left our space to
more competent writer's, but we have
now concluded to write an article.
We'll let us look about for q subject;
T suppose we must have one; let me
see: We have a husband, but if he
was bad we should not want it put
in the papers and if he was exceed
inolv GOOD the other women would
envy us. so we will keep his qualities
closely locked in the secrets of our
own heart. We have children, but
there is nothing peculiar about them

How to Choose a Melon.

The following from the Jo,r7aM Of
Aqricultme, will be welcomed by
many, who, in buying melons, never
succeed in getting more than a sin
gle good one out OF every five:
When the melon begins to change
color inside and its seed to turn black
small black speck, scale or blister,
begins to appear on the outer cuticle
or rind. These are multiplied and
enlarged as the fruit natures. A ripe
melon will show them thickly sown
over the surface A partial develop
ment indicates only halfripened fruit.
A full crop OF blisters reveals it's per-
feet ripeness. When hundreds Of
melons are strewn along the side
walk you will have to look pretty
sharply to find one that exhibits q
satisfactory "escutcheon, to borrow
a term from M. Guenon. But is I'M
falling when found, and By following
this rule you may walk away with
YOUR melon with the most entire con-
fidence. The blister is only to be
seen upon close inspection, but it is
plainly visible when that is given.

without the accustomed caution that
one usually receives when thought to
indulge too freely in our own domes-
tic fruits. The effect of actually
gorging upon this deliciousfruit would
not be more than slightly diarrh1tic.
In no case has there been known to
result general sickness, nor has cpl
demieal disease been engendered.
Fevers in the tropics are caused,
net by eating fruits. but by "miasm .
or infectious exhalations, decaying
vegetable matter on damp soil, or by
night dews in lieu of rain on such
matter. In such climates a glass OF
pure water may precipitate fever, as
it prevades the atmosphere.
Bananas, if matured, can have no
more injurious effect than well ripen
ed apples, which fruit they resemble,
having as many favors and qualities,
one being named Manzana, or ap-
pie banana; others the fig, ETC., to
which they assimilate in flavor. This
fruit in our Indies is considered equal
ly healthful with the pineapple, and
is cut from the .foIi0ceous Tree, for
home use in the cities and towns Of
the "Islands. This fruit natures
gradually by absorption of the juices
remaining in the green, fibrous stalk,
and thus fully and naturally natures
during transportation.
Should sickness in the shape of
fever come among us, it will be found
traceable to other causes than eating
of matured fruits, whether tropical,
seni-tropical or domestic. From i'm
mature peaches, apples and pears
there is more danger to be apprehend-
ed than from the use Of the banana
and pine-apples as brought to us.
We have yet to learn of the first case,
either here or elsewhere, where injury
has resulted from lavish use Of ri
pened fruits. 1t is possible that the
scare about foreign fruits is mere job
berry; and, as we hear of but one
single cargo Of bananas due to this
port during August, the domestic
vendors may reasonably subdue their
fears.
1t was stated enormously by the
Record some time since that bananas
were imported in the "Autumn to be
sold in the Spring" and kept in the
interim in ripening rooms. This
statement is incorrect. 1t is only
during the cold weather that this pro-
cess is resorted to, and for few days
only artificial heat is required, the
temperature being made equal to
Summer heat. Under a proper tenn
perature fruit will mature in q few
days. However, it is the aim to
bring the fruit sufficiently matured to
be at once edible and salable. Cargoes
are sold and consumed usually upon
arrival.-M. ID. III Record,
