HOW To Keen Annles.

On the subject of keeping apples O.
W. Hawden, of Worcester, Macs, in a
recent address, said: IF apples are ex-
pected to keep well they must be picked
from the trees and handled carefully.
Barrels and boxes are found the most
convenient packages for apples, but
should be washed and thoroughly
cleansed and dried before using; care
should be taken that no nails pro
trude through the slaves. The fruit
should be carefully placed in the bar.
rels and gently shaken and pressed into
them as compactly as possible to pre-.
vent any motion of the fruit after the
barrels are headed; each sort should
be marked and placed where the tenn
perature is low and uniform if possible.
If apples are to be stored for winter or
late keeping the sooner placed in a
cool and uniform place the better. A
fruit house or cellar made with q view
for the purpose is best, but most grow.
ers usually have to resort to their cell
lars. The chief requisite for the preser.

June following are a uniform low tenn.
p%erature, which in autumn may be OBJ
tanned by giving abundant ventilation
on cool nights, to be closed when the
atmosphere is warm. Fruits should be
maintained or kept in as nearly as pos

gradual ripening process, or the fer

decay, should be checked and kept in
u dormant condition. When maintain,

nearly ceases. Fungi and mildew, the
primary causes Of decay, do not germi'

best latc keeping results are promoted
thereby. The prices at which apples
are sold differ very materially between
October and June and are often as ont

Greatest Sufferers From DECEASED Money.
No one suffers so much from cheap
money as the farmers and laborers.
They are the first. to feel its bad effects
and the last to recover from them. This
has been the uniform experience of all
countries, and here as elsewhere the
poor and not the rich are always the
greatest sufferers from every attempt to
debase our money.-William Mckinley

Tillmau at ereeneyiIIe.

GREENEvILLE, TENN, sept. zs.-u.
N. Tillman. Republican candidate for
Governor, spoke here at Pm. today
to an audience Of abont 1900 people.
His audience was composed largely of
voters, being very few boysin the crowd;
however, owing to the Indictment
weather, few ladies were present.
For two hours Mr.. Tillman held the
undivided attention of his audience,
and won the admiration of all who
heard him. There has not been a more
impressive speech delivered in Greene
vile in years. An incessant rain from
daylight until after 0 o'clock doubtless
prevented a larger audience to hear
this distinguished Tenessean on the is
sues in which the people of Tennessee
are so directly interested.

"TRILBy" WAKES UP JOHN BULL

He Has just Discovered That 5onathan's
Literary Judgment Was Correct.
Our British cousins did not take very
strongly to '.Trilby' when that novel
was first put upon the market, says tho
New York World. The English critics,
who are very clever and high sal
aried lot of gentlemen, instantly an
nounced with a suddenness of percep-
ception and immobility of conviction
peculiar to the British isle that there
was really nothing in the book, and the
British public, which has been waiting
with strained ears to catch the mani
festo of the critics, at once came to the
same conclusion. Shortly afterward
the work became extremely popular in
America, and when they heard this the
British critics and the British public
threw their hats up in the air and ex-
claimed aloud in a frenzy of joy and
self-congratulation:
did not we say long ago that there
was nothing in sTrilby?'" And ''Is it
not now proved that we were right? The
great American public has approved of
'Trilby.' The great American public
never approves of anything that is
worthy of approval; therefore, oh, it is
SO plain, 'Trilby' is trashy"
But now two years have passed and
the sad news is flashed over the cable
that the discerning British public and
critics have succumbed. They now
acknowledge "Trilby" as their queen.
They have the "Trilby" craze. They
wear Trilby shoes. They give Trilby
teas. The women buy Trilby garters.
The concert balls are all giving Trilby
burlesques. In fact, ''the Trilby infec-
ton" ESQ reads the cable dispach) has
worked in the slower English blood a
fever no less violent than that from
which America recovered months ago.
The craze has invaded everything and
become almost insufferable to the
Americans in London. More than 100,-
600 copies of the book have now been
published here, and the demand is I'M
satisfied"
If the British public keep up this
hustling there is every possibility that
they will adopt the sleeping car in
time.
