For the Man Who
Likes Fine Underwear.

The man who likes the luxury
of fine wool next to the skin can

grades that the masses buy.
Let us look at these goods from
the celebrated American Hosiery

ity yarn and beautifully finished.

OUR FRUIT IN GERMANY.
An Unlimited Market if Properly
Prenared.

The State Department at Washington
has received a report from John A.
Barnes, Consul at Cologne, Germany,
giving the reasons for Germany's OBJ
lection to American fruit Mr.. Barnes
SAYS:
MY attention has recently been
called to certain objections to the man
ner Of preparing American Pacific
Coast fruits, especially apricots, for the
German market, which have been made
by the local authorities of the town Of
Neuwied in this Consular district. A
large importer of American fruits in
this city has received and disposed of
over 100000 marks ($23,S0O worth of
American apricots alone during the
past year.
Until recently this class of fruits
has been exempt from the attention
and criticism of the German officials,
but a few days ago, this importer,
with many others, was cited to appear
before the local authorities Of Neu-
wied for the purpose of discussion and
explanation regarding the preparation
of the American apricots which were
being sold there.
This fruit has been received for
the most part from San Francisco and
San Jose. Many samples have re-
Gently been taken from local dealers
by the police officials of Neuwied for
analysis. This has resulted in the
discovery that these apricots had been
treated in America with a preparation
of sulphurous acid. Their sale, it ap-
pears. is in direct violation of stat
ute of the German law.
Persons interested in the sale of
American fruits here strongly desire
to remove all reasons for these investi-
cations, and have requested me,
through the Department of State, to
call the attention. of American shippers
to this condition of affairs, anad to the
absolute necessity of abstaining from
the use of sulphurous acid or any such
preparation in the expectation Of fruit
to this market Persistence in this
practice will undoubtedly result in the
entire exclusion of such fruits from
Germany.
"Stricter attention must be given to
the German laws. American dealers
are still shipping to this market dried
apple slices which have been cured
upon zinc frames. This process has
been strongly condemned by the Ger
man Government. and the sale or
handling of fruit thus prepared is in
terdcted by law. These violations are
suicidal in their effects, and damaging
to several branches of American trade.
1T is the opinion of importers here
that in some instances American
pears are also treated with the sui
phurous acid process.
1T is of no consequences that compe-
tent medical authorities here have de-
cided that the use of fruit treated
with sulphurous acid is not detrimen-
tai to health. 1t is sufficient for the
watchful local official to know that the
law forbids the sale of such fruit and
that his supreme duty consists in the
strict enforcement of the law as he
finds it upon the statute books Amer
lean fruits are so far superior to the
other fruits found in this market that
it would seem an easy matter for them
to dominate the trade without a re-
sort to practices which tend to dis
credit them

words with him as he came in But
she was already there, motioning him
to go.
Most extraordinary, said the doctor,
when he came early next morning. I
might almost say-er-quite unprece-
dented in my experience"
The change began last night" said
the nurse. ''At about 10 o'clock
friend was here to say good-by-you
told me to let her do as she pleased.
At 1920 he left, and this change be-
gan late in the evening. She had a
perfect night
Very remarkable case said the
doctor Il can only call to mind one
other case -almoSt-er-miracu
lous recovery. 1t was''-and he started
on a hospital story of 1862.
The nurse was to break the news to
the patient. She did so with intense
readiness and relief. She had always
said that she couldn't bear death cases.
But the scene, as such. was a failure.
The girl merely stared at her fixedly
while she spoke, and, when she had
ceased speaking, turned silently with
her face to the wall.
SIle can take II dlf liz DIT OICt, pun
thing" said the nurse to herself, and
presently sat down to write letters
contradicting those of yesterday.
1t was terribly quiet day. that. The
girl wanted nothing, and said nothing.
But in the evening there seemed to be
every prospect of another perfect night.
She was drowsy and nerveless, and
only wanted to sleep.
SO they ended the day early, and the
nurse went TO bed in her own room,
with the door of communication stand
ing wide. Tired out with inactivity,
she fell quickly into a profound sleep.
She woke much later, with the idea,
the sensation rather, that some thing
had called her soundlessly. She listened,
but heard nothing except the watch
ticking, and so turned to resume her
sleep. Again that vague something in
terposed. She got up then, and went
very, very quietly into the next room,
her bare feet hardly sounding on the
mating.
There was sign of dawn yet at the
window; only the yellow simmer of
the nightlight. But she could see that
the bed looked queer. She went quick
ly to the bedside.
There was no head on the pillow.
She lifted the pillow with a movement
of panic, and saw the girl was lying
with her head underneath it, and her
face to- the wall-dead.
So the doctor called it still more
extraordinary case; and the nurse
wrote a third batch of letters; and one
man guessed the truth.-London Out

It was perhaps the least enjoyable
half-hour in that mans career-the
half-hour spent. by the bedside of girl
with whom he only dimly remembered
to have fiirted-a little-When he was a
mere cub of twenty-five, and she was
one of the passably nice girls at Cam
bridge, who helped to kill wet Sunday
afternoons. In subsequent years, when
he was the f1uctuaGngly intimate friend
Of her brother he could take his oath
that he had never fiirted with her at
all. AS a matter of fact, she had
never given him an opportunity of do
ing SO. She had become so proud so
odd, so unfriendly toward him that he
had thought, at last, that she must
have something against him, and the
practical cessation of friendship be-
tween him and her brother had been
owing as much to this theory as to the
irresponsible circumstances which sep
arated them actually.
And now! The unrecognizable wreck
of woman lay on a bed at the top of
a poky fiat, and told him that all her
life had been a weary misery for love

for there is no blame in the matter, to
you or to any one else. 1t was just

wanted you to come so that l could get
one happy thing into my life before it

And again: L wish l could tell you

The only things that remain, that mat
ter at all now, are Love and Death. As
my whole life was spoiled by Love, I
did want my death to be happy
through Love. And, somehow. I
couldn't bear the thought of dying

words that matter, I love you-oh. how
