THE FRUIT. CROP.
The Yield of All Fruits Surprising Ex-
pectnti0ns.

The yield of the fruit crop in Roam
okc and Botetourt counties has ex-
cecded expectation. Tho peach crop
has developed wonderfully and all the
packing establishments are in opera
tons. The yiold in the peach crop will
exceed chat CT any year yet known as
far as general average is concerned.
The city market was never better
supplied. Heretofore the choicest
peaches could not be boughtin Roanoke.
To-day the best quality raised Gun 10
purchased at moderate prices. Thou
sands of crates are being shipped evory
day to the North and East and the
markets are becoming flooded with Roa
nokc and Botctourt peaches.
The apple crop of Roanoke county is
the finest ever known. Back Creek, the
great apple producing district, has
begun to move its crop Of early apples.
S. w. Henry, one Of tho largest fruit
growers of that locality was in the city
Tuesday and told a TINES reporter that
in square Of five miles there was
$50, 600 worth of fruit. Mr.. Woodrum,
the largest apple grower, will pack
10000 barrels. The size of the fruit is
above the average anl the quality is
the best known for years. Pears arc
abundant and the smaller fruits are
plentiful. In many instances is will be
impossible for the growers to handle
the crops.

a dapper young fellow who had been
reading intently looked up. and his gaze

He apparently didn't notice that it was
a man holding the infant, for he jumped
up, lifted his hat, and said, PLEASE take

Took Him a Long while to See 1t.


A man who returned not long ago
from stay of several months in Lon

experience with British wit. ''The mind
of the Briton is solid, but Slow" he said
land when it comes to his appreciation
of a joke he can be trusted after while
to get to it, but the process is slow.
This story is capital illustration of
what ! mean: One day l went into a
book shop on the Strand and asked for
Hare's Walks in London. In America
the book is sold in one thick volume; the
clerk brought it in two. 'Oh,' said, as
looked at them, you part your Hare in
the middle, do you?
81, sir?' he said with bewildered
look; ''oh! no, sir
saw he didn't see the joke, SO /
didn't explain, but bought the books and
went away. A week later entered the
same shop. AS soon as the clerk saw
me he rushed from the back of the shop
Laughing vociferously, and seized me by
the hand:

your Hare in the middle that's capital.

The rreatment of Dand rutr.

DIR. Edward Clarke states that he has
had good results in persistent dandruff
from the following treatment: The scalp
should first be thoroughly washed with
soap and hot water. and then thoroughly
dried with warm and soft cloth. There
should then be rubbed into the scalp a
glycerine of tannin. of the strength of
ten TO thirty grains to the ounce. Very
obstinate cases will require the higher
strength of tannin. This process should
be repeated twice week at first, once a
week afterward. II, tannin fails, as it
will inesome cases, then. resort is had to
resorcin. After the formation of edand-
ruff has ceased the head should be rubbed
daily with olive oil. containing to the
ounce ten grains of carbolic acid and a
dram of oil of cinnamon.

that now exists in India is the casting of
Hindoo and other images for religious
purposes. These are, of course, mostly
to be found in old temples. Almost all
the temples which can really claim an

which are the perfection of art, and
which, with all the assistance of ma
