other fruits, The cans or jars must
be Theoretically sealed while hot, and
placed away in a dark, cool place.
They should be looked after daily
during warm weather, and if they
show any signs Of fermentation the
jars should be placed in shallow pans
of cold water, which should be
brought to a boil, and when the fruit
is thoroughly heated, seal as before.

Figs-(Ficus Carica.)

From the New Orleans Times,
There is no fruit known to the peo-
pie of the South which can be propa-
gated so easily, and that will produce
larger results, in so short a time. A
branch or cutting placed in the
ground at any time during the months
Of December, January and February,
is certain to grow, and with any sort
OF care, will produce a good crop the
third year.
We have planted large branch,
well set with buds in January, which
has produced fruit and ripened the
first season.

Of the marvellous experiences OF Jonathan
Wild, the thief taEer. While travelling
on q western railroad, near Kansas City,
and occupying berth in the sleeper, be
was awakened by scuille in the passage

duCtor engaged in a desperate struggle
with man who had been detected in
thieving from the passengers and who
was endeavoring to make his escape. The
Colonel started TO get out Of his berth and

the thief presented a seven shooter
at his head, and thinking there was
no use in interfering Just then our
towsman got back behind the curtains.
The struggle went on and finally
the conductor yelled vigorously for assist
ance. This time the Colonel responded
with vigor, and catching the thief by the
shoulders he pulled him OF the conductor,
beat his head on the stove few minutes
and then, after wiping the floor and dust.
ing all the seats in that end Of the car with
the remnants OF the carcass, he held him
until the arrival OF an officer.
The only injury suffered by the Colonel

by being compelled to sit on The PROSTATE

in the car peeped at him through the cur.
