In Biiah's Court,

1t was a mild-eyed, long haired young
man of twenty-seven. who answered to
the name of Donald O'Grinnel, and he
wanted to know Of the court if he
couldn't have a glass of lemonade before
his trial.
Guess not" answered his Honor.
"Bijah had lemon around here five or
SIX weeks ago, but ten to one the cock
reaches have lugged it off and traded it
for gum drops. 1t won't hurt you any
to be tried"
i feel all gone"
Yes, | suppose so. I've never had
the sensation myself, but I've seen SO
much of it here that [ can imagine what
1t IS. What allied you last night %
q" felt bad"
And what did you do for it ?"
Took prescription
Just SO. 1t was a humping big
drink of whisky ON top of two beers,
wasn't it ?"
II believe SO, but Tn SO gone that
can't tell
Poor youth You are assistant to
florist in the suburbs. You came to
town about dusk last night with your
hat on your ear and a desire il your
heart to mash some one. You took
prescription to give you further courage,
and you went into a Michigan avenue
store and offered to chew the proprietor
into shavings for two cents"
Z" Did do that %
"Of course you did You called
yourself tho War Eagle of Detroit, and
you annoyed the man until he made
your heels hit the ceiling and then flung
you into the alley"
" And then what ?"
"Then you slept the sleep of the
drunk, and your snores guided the Off
GERS to the spot"
Well, Tn awful sorry"
" Yes, so am /. It's a pity you are
not statesman instead of loafer."
" guess I'll begin from this very
morning to be stateman."
p" guess you won't! You'll begin
from this morning to go to the Work
House for three months p
"That finishes me might as well
die at once"
"Well, do your dying in the corridor.
and please don't kick around and smash
Bijah's new coal stove. Fall back and
die and make room for the next."-De.

Tropical Fruits.

Mangoes from Jamaica are among the
most delicious of these rare fruits. They
are pearshaped, with thick, golden, red
checked rind and an orange colored pulp.
a large pit like peach stone takes up
half the fruit, and contains a bitter ker-
mel. The specimens Of this fruit are said,
by those who have eaten it in South Amer
lea and Jamaica, to be excellent. It is
necessary to pick the mango when it is
ripe, as those that ripen after they are
picked are devoid of flavor and worth
less. 1t Is consequently perishable car
go, and full twenty per cent. of those
brought to this country spoil before they
reach the country. The sweet mango is
the species usually seen here. There is
slightly acid kind sometimes sold,
which is very pleasant to the taste.
Fresh mangoes are worth from fifty cents
to one dollar a dozen.
The sweet mangoes put up at Bombay
are famous East Indiana chutney, and
q popular accompaniment of curries in
England. Though seldom used in this
country, they may be bought for 81. 80 q
bottle. They should not be COMPOUNDED
with picked musk melons, which are
called mangoes by New England house
keepers.
The red and yellow banana are not diff
ferent species. All bananas are naturally
yellow and are made red by grating
The effect of the graft runs out in seven
years, when we have sometimes bananas
that are red, spotted or streaked with
yellow. There are over forty or fifty
varieties of this fruit. The little guinoes,
or fig banana, is not unknown to our fruit
stores. 1t is not over finger long, and
1t is one Of the finest species. The plain
tain and banana are Of the same family.
The oriental Christians searching for the
Garden of Eden believed that the banana
was the forbidden fruit, and named it the
"tree of Paradise" though the forbid
den fruit sold in Paris fruit stalls and In
our own market is species of orange,
the crap shaddock. 1t is of no special
value, is acid, and is kept more for dis
play than for anything else. The leg
end says, it was good till Eve tasted
it, but it has been bad since. The deep
depressions near the stem Of the fruit
like the mark Of teeth are supposed to
be the origin Of its claim.
The mandarin oranges are small
species of fruit with dark colered per-
fumed rind hardly thicker than brown
paper. The taugerine is variety of
mandarin. 1t is the thinnest skinned
species of orange known. Mandarin and
tangerine oranges, which are in market
during the winter months, are sold from
seventy-fve cents to one dollar dozen.
The seedless st. Michael oranges are
brought from the Azores, and though
common in England, are seldom seen in
this country. They are small, light
collered fruit, with scarcely any seeds,
and are excellent in flavor In this city
they bring from sixty to seyenty-fiye
cents dozen.
Fresh cocoanuts, or the immature CO.
coanuts, picked when they are half ripe,
are the favorite food and beverage of the
tropics The stem and green cup at the
base dropping off is the external indica-
ton that they have sourced. -E,rchange

ZOnpSa.

Zopeza was introduced in America
two years ago. Large quantities have
been used for Dyspepsia, and as a pan
acea for the Liver, and the manufac-
turers have yet to hear of a single case
of Dyspepsia or Billiousness. when
Zopesa was used as directed, in which
it was not more than satisfactory. Many
write that it is a wonderful remedy.
We can show where as high as 40 pounds
were gained by its use in breaking up
chronic Billiousness and Dyspepsia. Its
friends increase very fast, and all who
use as directed are surprised and graft
fed. Ask Hassel & Stone. 35m1

dure in the desert "a presidential cap
ital, with material and sacred associa-
tons extending through thirty centuries.
1t was near Damascus that Saul of Tar
sus saw the light above the brightness
Of the sun; the street which is called
Strait, in which it was said she prayed"
still runs through the city. The cara

years ago; there IL still the sheik, the
ass and the water-wheel: the merchants
OF the Euphrates and Mediterranean still
occupy these with the multitude of
their wares" The city which Moham-

1t was given to man to have but one
