Buy Grape Fruit for Oranges.

'Ihere ere great many people who
buy grape fruit thinking that they are
getting nice, large oranges. AS soon
as they bite into the fruit and find a
bitter taste complaint of swindling
Immediately goes up. They think
that they have had palmed off on them

dealer yesterday. Snow, about
twenty years ago, when the shaddock,
as the grape fruit was then called, was
being introduced to Americans from
China, where it was known as the po.
malo, fakirs were about the only per.
sons who would handle the fruit.
They sold them for oranges, and there
was no limit to the number of people
who were deceived. Fruit dealers
found it an advantage not to handle
them very extensively. Since then,
however, the fruit has become much
more desirable through scientific cul-
tivation-and it is eaten generally. 1t
is q good appetizer and is a fine thing
for persons troubled with malaria.
"rhe fruit is called grape fruit be.
cause it grows in clusters like grapes.
The clusters contain between ninety
and 100 pieces of the fruit, each OF
which averages about a pound in
weight. So, you see, it takes a pretty
strong branch to hold even one bunch.
The Florida fruit is the finest grown.
1t is sold at Sl5 box of three dozen.
California stock is pretty, but much oi
it dry. 1t goes at SS and $40 a box.
The Jamaica grape fruit is sold at Sc
box. 1t is smaller than either of the
other kinds and is considerably more
like leather in pulp. Chicago Rec

A fellow must be soclahla 20 get along
This is one Of the commonest excuses for bad
habits among young men. II he drinks TO
excess on some occasion, II he stays out un-
reasonably late at night, or docs anything
else for which he is properly chided Ivy those
who naturally have an interest in him. the
first thing tine young man pleads In sef-de-
Tense is the necessity OF soclabilty. He must
be sociable TO get on A moments sober re-
fiectlon would show even him the FOOLISH
ness of this excuse. What does no under
stand by sociabiluy2 He probably could
not define what he means by the term IL he
were asked TO do so. Certainly, he would
utterly fall to demonstrate how the cultiva-
tion of bad habits becomes contrlbutory to
success in any worthy application of the
word. One OF the first fruits of yielding to
temptation is the stimulation of guile, and
the person who stoops to do mean and
shameful thing Will not hesitate to lie to
cover his tracks, il he deems it convenient or
expedient TO deceive those who question his
acts. We would say. continues the Catholic
American, to all young persons, whatever
their conditions or surroundings, begin your
habits OF sociability at home, practice anita
bility and cheerfulness there. cultivate these
virtues first of all for domestic use, and they
will serve you and promote your welfare in
a practical sense where II will do the most
good. But above all, do not be dishonest
with yourselves, false to your best friends
aud disloyal to your own highest purposes
OF life by masking the culture OF vicious and
dangercu us habits under the specious plea Of
sociability. Misanthropy is n thousand
times better than that love of companionship
which finds expression in dissolute acts.

CLEANLINESS IN DAIRY voRK.

Life, it has been said, is made up of
little things, and it can be said that
dairying is made up the same way--in
fact, any business is made up of little
things and details. and if these are not
properly attended to, failure results.
One OF the most important details
OF dairying is cleanliness. Thisshould
be observed from the milking of the
cows 10 the packing of the product
butter especially.
The daily cleaning OF dairy utensils
is one of the important factors in pro.
noting cleanliness. All the milk in
or on dairy utensil should first be
rinsed off with water far below the
scalding point before any water up to
that point is used. If scalding water
is used at the start the milk is cooked
and then it is almost impossible to re-
move 1t from the article-especially
the creases of seams ii any there be.
If scalding water is used OH milk
strainor of fine meshes before the milk
has been rinsed with water of lower
temperature the strainer will be about
as good as ruined and the same will
result if the milk is allowed to dry in.
Therefore, if the user is not ready to
rinse off the milk as soon as through
using let the strainer be put under
water and left there till it can be
properly cleaned.
The cans of portable creameriet
should be kept scrupulously clean.
This can be easily accomplished if at
tended to every time they are emptied
and the rules above mentioned OBJ
served.
The water and ice tank of a porta
BILE creamery should be carefully looked
after. In the first place care should
be taken to thoroughly rinse off al
saw-dust that may stick to the ice be
fore the latter is placed in the tank
Next, be sure when strainlng the mill
not to spill any os it into the water
But if any gets into it then chang,
the water at once--especially during
warm weather.
Every dairyman should have a dair!
room or house, and it should be loca
ted where no foul odors would be likel,
to reach it.
That cleanliness is next to Godlines
is especially true when applied 10 dairy

Gold Caves.

In the. southern and western part of
Missouri, especially in the Ozark re-
gions, there are many irregular
shaped openings in the earth, which
the logical geologists term ''blow
holes" or "eold caves" and from
which cold blasts of air are constantly
issuing. One of the unique theories
advanced to account for the blowing
phenomenon is that the temperature
of the cave Is abnormally reduced by
the ammonia in the enormous deposits
of bat manure. Whenever the out
side deatmosphere is above temperature
of forty FIVE degrees Fahrenheit these
r'blow holes" may be found at work.

TEMPERANCE
A MODERN rRErBoorEa.

Mans life Is a war!are-'tls hard 10 with.

Tho foes that assail us by sea and by land;
To meet their attacks lot us wisely combine;
And pray without ceasing for succor divine;
And that we may not suffer shipwreck or
loss,
Let faith he our shield, ami our standard the
cross.
The passion for drink, so degrading and
low,
Has become for tho millions the mightlest
foe;
On life's stormy billows this pirate pursues
The best laden vessels to plunder their crews,
Till, pillaged aud wrecked, IN mid-ocean

The most hclpless OF beings, the victims OF

All Christians should ever this enemy Nv
And, like true disciples, the flesh mortify-
Should Nv what Is sinful, and gladly ab-
stain,
To conquer the demon, the goal to attain;
Should fervently pray for assistance the
while,
And fly all indulgence degrading and vile.

ATHLETICS WITH AND WITHOUT ALCOHOL.

An ex-President of the Cambridge uni
versity Athletic Club, whose letter appears
in the Temperance Chronicle, says:
al am not now teetotaier, but very
strong advocate of temperance. When at
Cambridge, during my first year, when did
my best times in long-distance racing,
was total abstainer, aud trained entirely
without alcohol. During my last two years
ldrank alcohol occasionally and very mod.
erately, chiefly in the form Of beer. claret,
aud sometimes port; but the stubborn fact
remains that l never beat or equlled the
times l accomplished in races, of very
severe bodily strain, when took no alcohol
In any shape or form. II l were 10 20 in

Az AGGRAVATED PUBLIC NUIsANoE.

More than two thousand years ago the re-
suits of alcohol on the body were compared
to the bite OF a serpent and the sting Of an
adder; and alcohol has not changed its ma
ture since. At the present time alcoholic
beverages abused are certainly the most in
furious, deceptive and dangerous elements
Of death and destruction that exist, and the
annals OF criminal courts prove that the in
temperate are an aggravated public nuisance

DR.. A. Baer, OF Berlin, says: "Alcohol is
not food in the sense that it gives one the
power Of cndurance or preserves strength
aud health. 1t rather produces the opposite
effects, for it destroys the body and RUNS its
health" Instead OF being a preventive Of
malaria, cholera ana other diseases, alcohol
actually prelisposes one TO these evils. The
mental aud moral effects Of alcoholism are
beyond description terrible. "Aleohol des-
troys the individuality of men, paralyzes the
will and the physical energy, makes the in.
dividual a slave Of his passions"
