Mayor Kallsch last Sunday preached a ser,
mon on Rev. John Hemphill in which he al
luded to him as ''feo,' "sanctimonious
hypocrite" and "whited sepulchre." He be-
lieved that Christ had just such men in his
eye when he said, How shall ye escape the
damnation of hell?" Hemphill has long been
recognized in San Francisco as a blatant and
conspicuous ass, and the structures of Kalloch
who is looked upon as knave, will be gener-
ally endorsed. In this theological row there
are few persons who will take enough interest
in either to care who cries quit first. So far
Kallec h has shown his guns to be of the
heaviest calabre.

THINNING Eruff.

In good bearing season there are but
few trees that do not bear too many
specimens for their full deve 'opment in
size and flavor. Some of the fruit will
be smooth. fair and unirjured, while
some will be distorted, scabby and al.
most valueless. By removing these
knotty specimens, which can never be
good for much, the smooth and perfect
ones will have chance to develop
themselves, and while the increased size
will prevent the number of bushels from
being diminished, the improved APP
pearance, as well rs the quality, will
fully compensate for all the labor be-
slowed in thinning.
In picking off apples, remove first
those that show by the borings at tho
blossom end that the coddling worm
has taken up its abode inside, and then
IL there are too many still remaining,
remove the small ones. Every fruit
seller knows that it is the good-sized,
fair fruit that is eagerly caught up in
market, while it is the small, indifIer-
emit, knurly specimens that go begging
for customer. AS a rule, we think
trees should rarely be allowed to bear so
heavily as TO need supports to the
branches to prevent breaking down.
Any tree that Is liable to have its
branches split down from its load OF
fruit is carrying more fruit than is well
for the tree or good for the fruit

"Success With SmalI Fruits"

81 Just rolled out here from the gro
cery," said the little green apple as it
paused on the sidewalk for moments
chat with the banana peel; Il am
waiting here for boy. Not small,
weak, delicate boy" added the little
green apple, proudly, but great big
boy, great bulky, strong, leather
lunged, noisy fifteen-year-older and
little as am you will see me double up
that boy tonight, and make him wall
and howl and yell. Oh. I'm small, but
I'm good for ten-acre field of boys and
don't you forget it. All the boys in
Burlington" the little green apple went
on, with just shade of pitying con-
tempt in its voice, couldn't fool
around me as any one of them fools
around a banana"
boys seem to be your game"
drawled the banana peel, lazily; "well,
suppose they are Just about strong
enough to afford you little amusement.
For my own part, l like to take some
body of my size. Now here comes the
kind of man / usually do business
with. He is large and strong, it Is true,
but"
And Just then South Hill merchant
who weighs about 23l pounds when he
feels right good came along, and the
banana peel just caught him by the foot,
lifted him about ms high as the awning
post turned him over, banged him down
on potato basket, flattening it out I'M
til it looked like splint door mat, and
the shock Jared everything loose in the
show-window. Aud then while the
fallen merchant picked up his property
from various quarters of the globe, his
silk hat from the gutter, his spectacles
| from ~ nallor hsa htaf
the tree-box, his cane from the show
window. and one of his shoes from the
caves. trough, and a boy ran for the
doctor, the little green apple blushed
red and shrunk little back out of sight,
covered with awe and modification.
"Ah," it thought. Il wonder if /
can ever do thatp Alas, how vain !
was, and yet how poor and weak and
useless am in this world"
But the banana peel comforted it and
bade it look up and take heart, and do
well what it had to do, and labor for the
good of the cause in its own useful
sphere. True" said the banana peel,
you cannot lift up a two.hundred-
pound man and break a cellar door
with him, but you can give him the
cholera morbus, and il you do your
part the world will feel your power and
ehO houiCui ColleSec Will Cdll you
blessed"
And then the little green apple smiled
and looked up with grateful bushes on
its face and thanked the banana peel for
its encouraging counsel. And that very
night, an old father, who writes thirteen
hours a day, and n patient mother who
was almost ready to sink from WEAKNESS.
and a nurse and doctor sat up until
nearly morning with athirteen-year-old
boy, who was all twisted up in the shape
of figure three, while all the neighbors
on that block sat up and listened and
pounded their pillows and tried TO SLEEP
and wished that boy would either die
or get well.
And the little green apple was pleased
and its last words were; ''At least
have been OF some little use in this
great. wide world"
