THE VALUE OF APPLES.

People who lead indoor lives have
VIGOROUSLY bad livers. Unless that
organ gets systematic shakings It be-
comes sluggish, the skin turn green
ish yellow or blotches, the brain, hav-
ing an impure blood supply, gets lazy,
and health declines. The Norsemen
called the apple food for the gods, "
and used it to renew the strength of
the body and mind. There is not
only lime, albumen, tibrin, acid and
water in the fruit, that the system
rapidly assimilates, but the large
amount Of phosphorus stimulates the
nerves. That's what the women who
stay at home and the people who are

A DISLIKE OF DUKES.
A Handicap Which the Highest of Eng

A Handicap which the Highest of Eng
lish Peers Have to Carry.
We may note popularity in the
English feeling about titles of which
we have never seen a reasonable expla-
nation. The political populaoe dislikes
the title of duke. Some of the ablest
peers in politics have been dukes, but
to be duke weights instead of tighten
ing man in the great race for power.
There is a widely diffused impression,
the origin of which we cannot trace,
that duke is sure to be little stupid.
that brilliant duke is, in fact, an i'm
possibility. The title is positive draw
back to the Duke of Devonshire, and o
Duke of Derby would never have been
described as Rupert of debate"
The Duke of Argyll, who is an intel
lectual athlete, would have been far
more completely recognized as Earl of
Argyll, and we are not sure that the
dukedom has not impeded one or two
promising politicians in the house Of
lords. Certainly duke rarely rises
there unless he has become known to
the country before the title crushed him.
Is it that the rank overpowers the pop
ular imagination till men cease to see
the persona thing which constantly
happens in the case of kings-or is it
that men can never forget the special
rank by merging it in the simpler and
more familiar title Of ''lord2"
No peer except duke is invariably
mentioned by the title which marks his
grade. We have not an idea of the true
explanation, but we know that polit-
ioal earl who accepted dukedom would
lose heavily in popular estimation, and
that even marquis like Lord Sails
bury, who would alter his rank SO lit
tie, would find that the ooronet of
strawberry leaves acted, to certain
extent. as an extinguisher, while if his
son never entered the house of commons
he would have to struggle against some
inexplioable weight. The fact is one of
the very oldest in the whole of the odd
history of the influence of rank, but Of
its reality we entertain no doubt what
ever. To say that is ducal opinion
is to say 1t is an opinion that no one in
our days need consider. London Spec
