the growers. There are few wild
varieties, ono of which it is probable

the cultivated kinds. A few cultivated
kinds arc moderately free from tho mil
dow and in cool shady spots will bear
abundanily. This fruit requires exceed.
ingly rich soil, aud it is useless to try to
grow them without plenty of manure.
Deep mulching with coarse manure for
three feet around the plants will help to
produce fruit, but the bushes need prun.

A Human Body Turned to Stone.

u. f. Butler, of San Francisco, went
TO Stockton one day recently to remove
the remains Of his mother, who died in
1856 and was buried in the usual way
In the cemetery which WINS then used
a coroner Superintendent the oxhuma-
ton, and had II small box on hand large
enough to contain the few dry bones
which it was thought would be found to
constitute the remains. The casket had
decayed slightly, but was in good state
OF preservation. The lid was removed,
aud to the astonishment of all present
the remains seemed 10 have lost nothing
In size. Instead of mo.dcring remnant
OF cloth and few bones, the STROUD was
found in comparatively good condition.,
cllnging closely to the rounded body
and limbs OF the occupant Of the caskct.
Tho shroud was partially removed and
the perfectly preserved rounded arm of
woman in good condition was exposed.
There was not the slightest sign of decay
and the esh seemed to be hard, but tho
skin was OF pecul ar color and texture.
An examination showed that tho entire
body Ind undergone chemical chnnge
which had turned it into stone image
OF the dead woman.
Although the zinc case which incloscd
the caskct was supposed to have becn
Theoretically scaled. it was evident that
the water with which the ground was
saturated at certain seasons Of the year
had percolated through some o; ening,
carrying with it, in solution, silicates,
which had taken the place of the lcsh
tissues as they had disappeared in the
process of decay. What had once been
living fc.h had been, by the alchemy of
natures laboratory, turned to stone, aud
s:atue more perfect in detail, and n
more faithful reproduction of the orig
inal than over came from the sculptor's
studio was the result.
Mrs. Anna Butler, whose remains had
undergone this wonderful transforma-
ton, died suddenly of heart disease, SO
that there was no cmaciation of the body
or limbs, and overy rounded limb and
graceful curve was reproduced with
wonderful accuracy. Tho hair was as
natural rs in life, and the very tissue of
the skin could be seen. The stone
formed by the process of pe,rifaction
was finer than the finest marble. close
grained and smooth. a coffin of the
usual size was procured, and the stone
image transferred to it. Tho body was
not weighed, but it was all four stout
mon wanted to do 10 lift it into the now
caskot, aud it was estimated 10 weigh
about 80 mounds
