PEACH STONES FOR ALMONDS.
Trick Played Upon a New Haven Fruit
 Dealer

Trick Played Upon a New Haven Fruit | Dealer
 | A fruit dealer and grocer of this city has just shipped back to New York two bags of nuts which he purchased from a | New York house supposing they were | almonds. The almonds were ordered some time ago and in due time nuts supposed by the grocer to be almonds were received. When opened the nuts appeared to be all right. They looked fine on first sight, and the merchant who made the purchase of the supposed almonds sold some to several customer S.. When the customers tried to use them they found that the nuts were either of very poor quality or else they were something else. The latter surmise proved to be the correct one.
 When they complained to the grocer who made the sale it was found that the alleged almonds were peach stones, which had been put through some pro- cess in order to make them appear like the real article. The imitation is good enough to fool the most experienced person at the first glance, and, in fact, unless there was reason for suspicion, it is doubtful if any one would detect the difference without tasting of one of the nuts.
 Before shipping the peach stones back to New York the merchant removed several handfuls from the bags, and is passing them around to his friends as souvenirs.
