So he managed to let the truth leak and it

He asked her to ride to church, and they

The Appalling Failure ia Peanuts.


From the south comes the dsheartening
intelligence that the peanut crop is a failure
1t would be absolutely appalling, were it not
a somewhat Old story. Year after year we
have been RECALLED with it, and each autumn
we look for the sad news of the failure Of the
peanut crop as naturally as we expect to hear
every summer that the peach crop is a failure
and every spring Ihat the ice harvest is short.
No matter how favorable the season may
have been, the peanut IS reported among the
failures; no matter how mild the winter and
genial the spring, the peach is pronounced a
gone fruit; no matter how severe the winter,
ice is declared short and a famine predicted.
There is possibly reason for this sort of
thing, but it does not appear to prevent the
supply equaling the demand, and, what is
quite surprising, peanuts, raw or roasted,
are to be had at the old prices, and the boy
with ) cents to spend can break up an emo
tional drama with craunch Of the succulent
edible as innocently aud completely as when
the peanut crop never failed, and no well
regulated theatre was considered fashionable
unless it had peanut stand in the lobby.
