One of the most peculiar freaks of ma
ture ever brought to our notice in the
fruit line comes to us from +. j. Davis
orchard, in Riverside. 1t is an orange
picked from a budded tree on China
lemon stock. Inside the orange is a per
fectly formed China lemon, about an
inch in diameter. The stem of the China
lemon is a continuation of the stem of
orange. Although only partly grown.
the China lemon is distinct in character
as far as taste is concerned. Will some
expert tell us how the China lemon came
to grow inside of the orange on an or
ange tree? Was there any connection
between this China lemon and the root
of the tree, which was also China lemon?
Does the root of the tree affect the buds
on gratis? If the root of the tree had
been orange would this little freak of
nature have been an orange also? Was
this China lemon the result of mixing
the pollen of u China lemon tree with
the blossoms of an orange tree, or was it
from the effect of the China lemon root :?

A Lofty Mission.

Chicago Times, Ind.
The object of the visit to this country
of the Siamese officials now in this city
illustrates the indomitable enterprise of
the American citizen. Although Siam
makes a very etficacious intoxicating
drink of its own, American whisky.
through the energy of our merchants, is
sold there at prices so low that the native
article has almost been driven out of the
market, and in such quantities that
drunkenness in Siam has increased Won
derfully. The object of our visitors is to
secure a modification of the treaty be
tween tie two countries as will restrict
the traffic in whiskey. 1t is difficult.
however, to impede the onward march
of the American liquor man, whose lofty
mission it is to place intoxication within
reach of the poorest and the humblest.
