upon his Uranium.
On recovering his senses he discovered
that large, ripe descendant of the
forbidden fruit had become detached
from well-laden branch and for some
unknown reason had made It's way to-

This simple incident set Mr. Newton
to thinking. and he wondered why the

force which caused all things to sink. to

AShsUiar Effect.

The September freshet In the Rio
Grands had a singular effect on the
apple crop of this valley. That fruit had
nearly, but not quite, matured when the
waters come down, and both the trees
and the fruit were suffering for water,
so that when the fluid was turned into
the orchards 1t was taken up wi b such
avidity that the impulse caused large
ms jority Of the apples to split open at the
stem, and decay soon set in. Nearly &c
per cent. of the apple crop was thus de-
stroyed. Tribune.
