manufacturing, but for excessive eXpan-

in the same quarter of any year except
ing 1894. The fiscal year has ended VITA
financial results shade beyond general
expectations, and the new war tax begins

A Box of Hornets.

tFTOm the Philadelphia TimcSl
a professional man in st. Louis, who
was accustomed during the summer
months to have his fruit sent him by ex-
press from his farm, in Central Missouri
was much annoyed one season by the pill
ferings of Daggagemen- No matter how
carefully his choice peaches or pears were
boxed, the packages We're sure TO be bro
ken into and despOiled with q free hand.
He stood the loss without a murmur for
several weeks, when, having noticed that
the boxes that came in express car No. 81
Were rather worse robbed than those ship
ped in other cars. he decided to mete out
4 little righteous retributiOn.
Three or four days later he received
notification that an express package, adj
dressed to him, was coming in car No.
81, and would reach the city about noon.
He went to the station to meet the train.
and when il came in, he took a position
near the express car and watched.
He had not long TO wait \ man whose
head and face were swollen beyond recog-
milton came to the door Of the ear. He
was pulling after him in the most care
full manner a box that bore marks of hav-
ing been opened and hastily nailed up
again
Handle that mighty careful. jim" he
said to the boy with the truck. For all
you know it may have
'Sufferin' Job" interrupted the boy.
What's the matter. Swipesy2''
Nothing shortly replied the bag
gageman. BE mighty careful how you
handle that package. That's all I've got
10 say TO YOU. Stand out of the way I'm
going 70 throw this trunk"
The story soon leaked out Following
the instructions he had received, the man
ager of the farm. by a little cautious
night work captured a hornets nest. box
ed il up. and shipped il on that particular
day. and in that particular car. in lieu
of the peaches that the box was supposed
to contain.

Heaithful Diet.

One fad succeeds another in the line
Of diet just about as regularly as in the
line Of clothes. A paper called The
Alienist and Neurologist," Of which
most people viii not have heard, now
proceeds TO attack the fruit-eating fad.
For the last ten or fifteen years author
tiles on food have been telling US to
eat fruit, eat a great deal Of it, and
eschew bread and meat The scientific
publication with the long name insinu-
ates that this was done to boom the
various fruit interests of the country.
and that liking for fruit is, in real
fly. a survival Of the animal instincts
Of our arboreal forefathers, and that a
fruit diet is bad form and bad for the
form. II adds that primitive man" has
always subsisted on meat, and later on
cereals, and that fruit diet has pro-
duced, IN the natives Of the tropics a
degenerate type Of man.
Ii looks, on calm investigation, as If
the editor Of the scientific journal with
the long name has had a fit Of indIges-
ton, or something, for he uses all sorts
OF rhetoric TO express his opinion Of the
