History of the Orange and Lemon

The orange and lemon are indigenous
to Asia. The Romans are supposed to
have attempted the cultivation of the
lemon before the Christian era for ths
beauty of the tree and its supposed med.
i%cininal properties; but we find no ref.
erence to the fruit as being edible, al.
though Pliny tells us that the seeds OF
kernels were eaten to sweeten the breath,
but it was not until about the Eleventh
OF Twelfth Century that several varieties
of the edible orange were cultivated in
Italy, Spain and Portugal. The sweet
orange was $ % highly priced in these
countries that it soon became plentiful,
and has remained SO up to the present
time. Orange trees were taken to Eng.
and about three centuries ago, some
authors giving the date as 1895, and OF
course cultivated as a tender house plant
except in a few favored localities. New

Rise, my soul and stretch thy wing;
Thy better portion trace.

Up out of these lowlands into the heavens
of higher experience and wider prospect.
But how shall we rise? Only as Gods holy
spirit gives us strength. But that is coming
now. Not as a condor from a Chimborazo
peak, ~swooping upon the affrighted valley,
but at a dove like that which put its soft
brown wings over the wet locks of Christ at
the baptism in the Jordon. Dove of gentle
ness! Dove of peace!
Come, holy spirit, heavenly dove,
With all thy quickening powers;
Come shed abroad a Saviours love,
And thai shall kindle ours.
The Opelousas courier., 1893-04-01

The black brown of its bach, and the
white of its lower feathers, and the fire of
its eye, and the long flap of its wing make
glimpse of it as it swings down into the val
ley to pick up q rabbit, or a lamb, or a child
and then swings back to it's throne on the
rock something never to be forgotten. Scat
tered about its eyrie of altitudinous solitude
are the bones of its conquests. Bat while
the beak and the claws OF the eagle are the
terror of all the travellers of the air, the
mother eagle is most Kind and gentle to her
Young. God compares His treatment Of His
people to the eagles care of the eagiets.
Deuteronomy xxi. II, sAs an eagle STIR
reth up her nest, futtereth over her young,
spreading abroad her wings, taketh them,
beareth them on her wings, SO the Lord
alone did lead"
The old eagle first shoves the young one
out of the nest in order to make it fly, and
then takes it on her back and dies with it
and shakes it off in the air, and il it seems
like falling quickly flies under it and 4
it on her wing again. so tInh IDEAS Wirn-n
Disaster, failure in business, ~disappoint-
ment, bereavement, is only Gods way OF
shaking us out of our comfortable nest In
order that we may learn how to fly. You
who are complaining that you have no faith
or courage of Christian zeal have had it too
easy. You never will learn to fly in that
comfortable nest.
Like an eagle, Christ has carried us on His
back. At times we lave been shaken of,
and when re were about TO fall He came
under us again and brought us out of the
gloomy valley TO the sunny mountain.
Never IN eagle broodad with such Iowa and

Smallpox at Sitka, Alaska.

sitka, Alaska, letter, dated December "a,
contains the startling information that small
pox has made its appearance among the natives
there, and says that the white settlers are
thoroughly aroused to the gravity Of the stu
alton and are making every effort to put down
the epidemic. The letter states that it is prob
ably owing to the prompt action Of United
States Marshal Orvills W. Porter, who had the
patients quarantined at Jayonski, across the
bay from Sitka. that the disease did not obtain
stronger foothOld. The prisoners from the
Jail are aboard a small schooner, chartered BY
the government at $3.50 a mouth, where they
will be kept under guard until all danger Of
another outbreak is past. Fears are entertained
that the neighborhood of Juneau, thirty mine
miles distant. will be infected as the prisoner
who first contracted the smallpox was one who
had been transferred from that place to Sitka
for safe keeping. The letter says local quar-
antine will be rigidly exercised In preventing
an introduction Of the infection to the Puget
Sound country.
