The Value of Apples.

There is scarcely any article Of
vegetable food more widely useful
and more universally liked than
the apple. Let every family in
autumn lay in from two to ten bar
rels, and it will be to them the
most economical Investment in the
whole range of culinary supplies.
The most healthful dessert that
can be placed on the table is baked
apple. If taken freely at breakfast
with coarse bread and without
meat or flesh of any kind, it has an
admirable effect on the general
system. If families could be in
duced to substitute the apple
sound, ripe and iuscions-for the
pies, cakes candies and other sweet
meats with which children are too
often stuffed, there would be a
diminution of doctors bills suff;-
Gent in a single year to lay up a
stock of this delicious fruit for a
seasons use.-Prof. Faradsy.

IMPROVED SANITATION AND BETTER
HEALTH.
One work which has been accom-
plished during the past three years
will appeal particularly To the hui
name instincts of the public. 1t
has been the improvement in tie
sanitary condition of these great
penal barracks. All the walkshuve
been handsomely paved, an i'm
inense amount OF new sewage has
been put in, and dispositionsof filth
breeding disease and death. have
been removed. As arule the con-
yicts are rs free from disease at the
present. time as any number OF free
men are likely to be. The records
show that during the past four
months hardly half as many days
