Messrs. Muncaster. Little and other work
ers of the Central Union Mission.
OF late years the frame house has been
used for all manner of disIeputable pGr-

stained walls. Mrs. Shea has, however,
consecrated the old structure to the high

Pineannles for Dnspensla.

The Times has before touched upon the
use OF food as medicine, but did not in
clude the pineapple among its list OF medic
inal fruits. According TO correspondent,
with the coming of the pineapple season,
hte word is renewed that the fruit is OF es-
pecial value to the dyspeptic. In countries
where the fruit is Indigenous its hygienic
qualities are well known, but the broad
statement that pineapple everywhere and all
conditions of pineapple are wholesome must
be taken with a little Judgment Ripe
luscious fruit, not over-ripe nor under-ripe,
but tender sweet and succulent. is proDa-
bly, one of the most wholesome foods that
comes to our tables. 1t is easy, however,
to have these conditions infringed upon.
Tough, stringy, hard pines. as so often
offered, are not wholesome and are hard 10
digest. If the fruit is found TO be not in
perfect condition, cutting it twelve hours
beforehand and pouring a Wine glass of rum
overitwill add to acknowledgements. Sugar
freely an hour before serving, with good
powdered sugar. Emphasis is laid upon the
good quality of the sugar, as in powdered
sugar it is possible to buy abominally adul-
terated sorts.-New York Times.

Philadelphia housewives who make q point

They Were Com Portable Resting
Places for Weary Migrants.
For some weeks past the bath houses
at the bathing beach nave been made the
nightly resting place of numerous vagrants,
and recently complaints were received at
the Fourth precinct station house.
These resulted in raid on the place last
night by Policemen Bruce and Purks and
the arrest OF two sleepers, one an old man
seventy-two years of age named William
Wasbburn, and the other young negro,
James Williams. The policemen were di-
rected TO the right houses when half square
off by the snoring of Williams.
They found that about dozen of the
houses had been fitted UP with straw
aud old rags, making very comfortable
bed in warm weather for those whose means
of support are invisible. The old man stated
that about a dozen men congregate there
nearly every night after the watchman goes
away. but the rest of the beds were vacant

One of the most successful entertain
ments ever given in this city was that which
took place Tuesday evening at National
Rifles Hall, the occasion being The annual
May Ball of the fancy dancing class of Miss
Lou Tretler. 1t was about $50 O'Clock
when the courtiers announced the INTRO
ductory ''Grand Entrie," which was
participated in by Miss Tretler's eI.tire
class, numbering about seventy-five little
lads and lassies. The coronation ,sf queens
was truly a beautiful scene and as the
children took their places on The stage
and were barely visible through the palms
and plants which were scattered in pro-
fusion, the effect wasindeed like fairy Iaud.

evening was the presentation of "A beautiful
