Among the presents received by the
Emperor William on his birthday was
superb service of Sevres porcelain
bearing the inscription, From France"
As the gift was anonymous, there has
been good deal of speculation as to
the source from which it has emanated.
Meanwhile, it is affirmed that the Ger
man Emperor has been greatly touched
by it. and that he never wearied of
showing this particular present to the
visitors who called to offer their con-
gratulations on his natal day.

An Athenian "Reminiscences.

"Whsn was young" said Socrates
to Alcibiades, one Sunday afternoon, "it
Vas the custom OF the maidens Of Athens
to wear tunics somewhat low ~ to the
neck and short as to the sleeves when
ever they went into the theater or out
to . hop or any other like occasion Of
frivolous amusement. l suppose that
was before your day, Oh, Alcibiades!'
ut was," said Alcibiades, with a
sigh.
"But the tricks of fashion are alto
gsther worthy Of wonder" continued
the philosopher.
To-day, for the first time in many
years. went into q church. Il was one
Of those which made the loudest cutlery
against the low.necked tunics in the
days Of my youth. And what was my
surprise, Oh, excellent young man, to
find that the quondam fashion Of the
ballroom had crept into the temple Of
worship. Before me sat the fair daugh.
ter Of Plutocratus, the richest silver
miner Of Attica. Che wore . garment
entirely sleeveless and cut very low in
the neck; but she had wisely protected
her arms and shoulders from the flies by
. covering Of mosquito bar. which is
called lace yoke in the language Of the
day. What think you Of this fashion,
Alcibiads.!"
81 think" replied the beautiful Alci-
blades, that it would be wiser TO keep
out the flies with wire screens at the
doors and windows, and do away with
the lace Jokes altogether"
The maidens of Athens heard Of this
saying Of Alcibiades and were highly dis
pleased.
Alcibiades died an old bachelor in q
foreign land.

For the proper preserving Of all kinds
Of preserved fruits dry or cool closet is
indispensable; 1t Is also of great import.
ancs that the tops Of the jars should be
made perfectly air-tight. The old
fashioned method Of spreading paper
dipped in brandy on the top Of the jam
and jelly is worse than useless, as the
spirit will cvaporate and leave the fruit
unprotected. The best methods of clos
ing is, first, to lay over the top Of jams,
etc., . piece Of clean tissue or thin writ
ing paper, then to take thick. hnglazed
white paper (which Is sold for the pur-
pose) and cut out pieces half an inch
larger all round than the top of the Jars;
well beat up white of egg and q little
-four; spread the mixture with brush
over the paper and place 1t with the edge
side downward over the jars. 1t Will
adhere closely to the edges, and Will
need no tying, and the egg and neur
will fill the pores Of the paper and rem
der il completely impervi0us to air.
Fruit for preserving should always
be gathered when perfectly dry, and
boiled down Is soon ~ possible after
gathering; If it remains for any length
Of time before being preserved. . slight
fermentation will take place which will
injure the flavor. If the fruit be allowed
to become ovsrripe, the preserves will
become mawkish and deficient in flavor.
Ali unripe, decayed or otherwise imper-
feet fruit should be carefully picked out.
The boiling should proceed rapidly for .
short time; the fruit is neither likely
to keep well or 10 be Of good color Il 1t
IL allowed to simmer for . long time.
Juicy fruits, such a. currants. raspber-
ries, etc., which are not required to be
kept whole, are better when allowed to
boil for several minutes before the sugar
IL put into the pan. Fruit which IL de-
sired to be kept unbroken should have
. little sugG sprinkled over it . few
hours previous to boiling. to draw the
juice; as this will rarely be sufficient, II
should have little juice from other
fruit put Ia with II in the pan; red-cur-
rant juice may safely be used for this
purpose and it will not spoil the flavor
Of any other kind Of fruit.-Baptisi
Weekly.

A Cocoanut Farm iu Florida.

An enterprising capitalist of New
Jersey, who sees millions in the pro-
iect, has started an extensive plan
tation of coacoanut trees in Dade
county along the cocst of Southern
Florida. The seed cocoanuts were
brought from South America and
given careful attention n a nursery,
where the nuts were placed ii
square containing about four han
bred each. These were covcrsl IN
inch deep with sand and sea-weed +
soft mud from the beach and wafer
ed daily until they ge-minated. One
hundred thousand plants have been
set out on tract Of, about one thous-
and acres at cost Of nearly Go-ty
thousand dollars, and next winter
the number viii be largely augment
ed. The plants were placed in holes
three feet deep and from twenty to
thirty feet apart. It requires three
years for the trees to begin to yield
returns, but it is estimated that IN
ten years the grove will pay ten per
cent. on a valuation of two min.oa
dollars. A full grown tree will M
ture about sixty nuts annually. Tie
Florida coacoanut culture is limited,
however, as it is confined exclusively
to the seacoast and the trees can on
ly be grown to a small extent IN
Southern Florida.
