WE BELIEVE

that purchases of groceries are made
to fill certain needs, and that quality
must actually have the largest share
of attention. Price is and should be
made subordinate until ones judg-
ment approves the quality. The quail
ity once fixed, then buy as low as it
can be bought. This is our theory in
buying. We have carefully graded the
price on our entire stock, but not a
single article is of poor quality. Each
steamer from the Coast brings us new
fresh goods.

What Fruit Contains.

Our ordinary fruits contain the fol-
lowing substances in greater Or less
proportions:
A large percentage of water
Sugar, in the form of grape and fruit
sugar.
Free oragnic acids, varying according
to the kind of fruit. For example, the
predominating acid is malic in the APP
pie, tartaric i'll the grape, citrio in the
lemon.
Protein or albuminoids, substances
containing nitrogen, which resemble the
white of eggs and are its equivalent in
food value.
Pectose, the substance which gives
firmness to fruit and which upon boil
ing yields various fruit jellies.
Cellulose or vegetable fiber, the ma
terial that forms the cell walls, and
which is found in all parts of plants.
A very small percentage of ash or

EdisOn's Marriage.

The idea of the great electrician Edi-

intimate friend, who told him that his
large house and numerous servants
ought to have a mistress. Although a
very shy man, he seemed pleased with
the proposition and timidly inquired
whom he should marry The friend
somewhat testify replied, "Any one "
But Edison was not without sentiment
when the time came. One day, as he
stood behind the chair of Miss Still
well, telegraph operator in his en-
ploy, he was not a little surprised when
she suddenly turned round and said,
Mr.. Edison, 1 can always tell when
you are behind me or near me- =" 1t was
now Miss Stillwell's turn to be sur
prised, for Edison fronted the young
lady, and, looking her full, said, GIVE
beer thinking considerably about you
of late, and if you are willing to marry
me 1 would like to marry you" The
young lady said she would consider the
matter and talk it over with her mother
The result was that they were married
a month later, and the union proved a
very happy one.-San Francisco Argo-

A Vision of the Future.

One day in October, 1888, Lady A.,
living in Rue du Bel Respiro, Paris,
found that she had been robbed of a
sum of 8, 500 francs She notified the
commissary Of police on Rue Berger,
who instituted search and questioned
the servants, but discovered nothing.
Lady A, when enumerating her serv-
ants, begged the commissary to exclude
from his suspicious her second valet de
chambre, youth of 10, very good look
ing, very respectful, and very we'll
qualified for his duties, who had been
nicknamed "le Petit not on account
of his stature, for he was rather tall,
but from a feeling of delicate, protect
ing familiarity which his good qualities
had won for him. Meanwhile, among
the friends of Lady A. there had been
a good deal Of talk about a certain
Demoiselle E., who, they said, could
see the most surprising things in bowl

the curiosity to accompany his governess
to the house of this person, and was
quite surprised to hear her describe ex-

she could not name the thief, he would
be guillotined within two years. Some
weeks later "le Petit" left the service

scaffold. This servant, so highly esteem
ed, was none other than Marchandon,

Aside from kid gloves, there is no
article sold i'll connection with which
merchants are SO imposed upon by their
"best" customers as umbrellas. This is
tender theme. The tempers of the
wives Of our best customers are not to
be trified with when it comes to re-
turning half worn gloves or umbrellas.
With dignity not attained on any 9th
er hemisphere in the habitable globe,
she sails into the store of the merchant,
slams down the battered relic that has
acted as playhouse and tent for the chill
dren of the neighborhood and demands
new umbrella for the miserable
apology sold her only three months
ago." She declares it has only been
used three times and only with the
greatest care. The merchant has to &C
cept this as final, offers her the choice
of his stock, and she sallies forth with
the air of cOnque1or, conscious that
she has triumphed. Then be pockets his
loss and wonders what the next imposi-

many retail merchants fail or commit
suicide. If an umbrella is properly
made, of good material and decently
used, it will wear for years. Hard

Fox and Hounds.

For little way the pack follows
steadily upon the line, gaining fast.
Suddenly leading hound views 100
yards in front the beaten fox. He raises
his voice in frantic delight The rest
OF the pack in turn catch sight of their
prey, and now, ravening together, dash
forward with crash Of voices, with re-
newed pace and vigor. The fox knows
now that the end is very near, yet he
still holds his head straight and presses
on. The sight, even to the hardened fox
hunter, is almost pathetic one. Here
is no friendly ditch, no bush, no shell
ter of any kind where the hunted
creature may set himself up at the last
and die at least with his back to the
wall. All is bare, inhospitable and
open. The pack flashes forward, one
hound three lengths ahead of his fell
lows He is within five yards of his
prey. The fox suddenly faces round
with open mouth and barred teeth. The
big hound grapples him fiercely, reoeiv-
ing nasty bite as he does so. In an
other instant the whole pack are mingled
in one wild delirium. The death has
come The huntsman gallops up, jumps
off his good chestnut, rescues the dead
and now battered quarry, and, with the
field gathered round him, proceeds to
conduct the last rites in due form,

Grant and Ochiltree.

President Grant made Colonel Ochil-
tree marshal for certain district in
Texas. The colonel, however, did not
spend much of his time at home, but
went skylarking about the country
wherever his fancy led him. This
caused so many complaints to be filed
against him that at last the president
sent for him tc come to Washington.
While waiting in the White House
reception room for his turn to see the
president, Ochiltree began reading re-
port of the preceding days races at
Saratoga and was surprised to see that
horse bearing his own name, Tom
Ochiltree, had carried off second money.
When he faced President Grant, the
latter said he was sorry to learn that
all appointee Of his should be in any
way derelict in his duty
'The fact is, Tom, can hardly pick
up paper that don't run across your
name" said he, land you seem to be
about everywhere except in Texas,
where you ought to be"
General, said the Texan, with a
smile as radiant as a California sun
set, "if you'll read the papers today
you'll find that carried off second
money at Saratoga yesterday and am
said to be in fine form and faster than
ever. See here

a most foroible illustration of the char

which he was attached as chaplain.
The officer was always meddling with

in his own place. Consequently he was
most unpopular with the sailors.

The World as It L. and Wa.

The earth, which we find today
bright with varied hues vocal with in
Vulnerable sounds, rich in fruits and
fragrant with odors, lay for an almost
incalculable period of time destitute, or
all but destitute, of color, soundless
save for the noise of wave and tempest,
and with no promise as yet of the rich
profusion of vegetable and animal forms
that now diversity its surface and fill it
with the thrill and manifold activities
OF life. We often speak of man as "the
heir of all the ages" but not often,
probably, do we pause to realize the
significance of the word. We talk of
evolution, but seldom make any due eff
fort to grasp the plenitude and grandeur
of the thought. These senses of which
we have the use, and each of which
brings a different world within our ken,
whence are they? 1t seems so natural to
see, it seems SO natural to hear, to
touch, to smell, to taste, that we forget
through what slow processes, by what
an incalculable number of slight aocre-
tions and delicate notifications these
wonderful channels of knowledge and
sensation have been made for us. We

house of my masters friend, We were
taken into clean snug stable; there was
kind coachman, who made us very COM
Portable, and who seemed to think good
deal of James when he heard about the
fire.
"There is one thing quite clear, young
man." he said, your horses know who
they can trust; it is one of the hardest
things in the world to get horses out of
stable when there is either fire or flood
| don't know why they won't come out
but they won't one in twenty"
We stopped twoo three days at this
place and then returned hcme. All went
well on the jour ey; we were glad to be
in our own stable again, and John was
equally glad to see Us.
Before he and James left US for the
night, James said, II wonder who is com
ing in my place"

John.

Woes of the JeweIer.

"We are not running around looking
for jobs at mending jewelry," said
salesman in large Chestnut street jew

joy when such jobs come in to us unso-

fulness of strangers, who take watch

how many cases of that sort we have to

A Roman Candidate.

The aspirant to public Office, like
other Roman gentlemen of station, has
a few slaves, perhaps 80 or so, accord
ing to his wealth. His cubicularius,
otherwise valet, attends upon him and
brings him the robe which is so artistic
ally whitened that from it he gets his
name of candidate. No tunic or fancy
waistcoat must be worn today, in order
that the candidate may better bare his
breast to display the wounds acquired
in the service of his country. After
duly submitting himself to the hands
of another slave, his barber, and after
partaking of a slight but dainty break
fast, he is ready to go forth. 1t is market
day, and he must show himself to the
people, or he must go to the polling
place, the Campus Martius, or pay a
visit to the forum.
On going abroad he must be accom-
panied not only by his supporters, but
by few of his personal slaves. They
do not all accompany him upon the occa-
sion. His cook, for instance, for whom
his master had to pay more than for
his doctor or even for a learned pro-
fessor, must stay at home in order, with
the other slaves, his satellites, to pre-
pare toothsome morsels for the candi-
date and his guests on their return from
the fatiguess Of the days canvass. AS
becomes the dignity of the occasion, his
scurra, or buffoon, will not accompany
him; but, on the other hand, no self re-
specting candidate would wish to show
himself without just few of his at
tendant slaves. Catholic World.
