Perslmmon and Medlar,

ITO quicker ones lips as by persm.
mon" is n proverbial saying. Every one
knows how astringcnt q pcrsimmon is be-
fore frost or anything that hastcns fer.
mentation has touched it. Sometimes the
treo has within itself the power to start
fermentation Independently of frost nc
ton, and when this is the case the persim
mon is edible long before frost arrives.
Other fruits are of tho same class. The
medlar is famous German fruit, not far
removed from the apple, but it is as as
tringent as the persimmon until 1t begins
to decay; then 1t is admirable. Frost is
not called In to aid decay In this instance.
1t is simply set aside until it begins to de-
cay naturally. 1t does not seem a nice
phrase, however, to say that "a medar is
not good until 1t Is rotten" Tho French
have more polite term for 1t. They say
that the medlar Is fit to eat rs soon as it is
bletted We might, with propricty adopt
this word for the persimmon. 1t would
sound very we'll to say that the blctted
