Easily Digested and In Many Ways

New York Herald: Among all fruits,
the apple stands first with the larger
number of persons as being obtain
able in good condition more days in
a year than any other fruit. Apples
placed ready for the children when
they are awake in the morning, to eat
as appetite demands, will be found a
turning point where little ones are
troubled with many petty ailments,
remarked q doctor whose name is
known all over the country. There
are few children who would not eat
an apple before breakfast il allowed
the privilege. 1t is a mistake not to
let them have it. The nervous system.
always calling for phosphorus, is
quoted by a full fruit diet. Apples
relieve the nausea of seasickness, and
are a help to those who are trying to
break themselves of the tobacco habit.
A good, ripe, raw apple is complete
ly digested in eighty-fve minutes.
This easy digestion favors longevity,
the phosphorus renews the nervous
matter in brain.
In the juice of lemons and lines

and for some forms of rheumatism.
Hot lemonade will relieve fever, but IL

Bananas give strength, and may be
given to many convalescents in reason.

"MAMMY MARY's" ExCU Sc
Story OF Mrs. Cleveland and mn OIo

Story of Mrs. Cleveland and nm OIo
Colored Nurse.
Philadelphia Post: "Mammy Mary"
who for three generations has been a
nurse in the family Of General John
b. Gordon of Georgia, and who is still
with the family, had the distinction Of
once proving that the mountain would
come to Mahomet,
In the course of her career she had
met many distinguished people, but
her W Importance as n nurse in O.
distinguished family prevented her
from being overwhelmed by the
honor.
When Mrs. Cleveland, during the
second term of her husbands presi-
dency, visited the Gordons at the gov
ernor's mansion in Atlanta, she ex-
pressed the desire to see a genuine
old negro nanny. The carriage was
hitched up and Nanny Mary was sent
for at Sutherland, the Gordon country
place, which she preferred to the
noise and excitement of official life
at Atlanta.
When the coachman drew up he
found her smoking her evening pipe.
Not q step would she bulge. "She
done say" said the unsuccessful envoy
in solemn disgust, dat she don't want
to see no more presidents; she done
see 'nough presidents" Mrs. Cleve-
land laughed heartily when she heard
1t. The next morning she drove out to
see Nanny Mary herself.
II I'm surprised, Nanny Mary
said Mrs. Gordon before introducing
her distinguished visitor, that you
sent such n message. You have never
been impolite before"
AN dat niggah done tell what I
say? Well, he nevah did have no
sense, an no mammals! Co'se I
'spected he'd say Use sorry Use indis-
posed"

looked still too young and even

The sound of horses hoofs came
from the rocky roadside beyond the
bush. Both men turned. A number
of field officers were approaching.
"The division staff" said the captain,
in a lower voice, falling back.
They came slowly forward, u CEN

man with a grizzled beard closely
cropped around an inscrutable
mouth, and the serious formality Of "A

as the latter drew up. The staff fol-
lowed more ~leisurely, but still with
some curiosity to witness the meeting
of the first general of the army with
the latest. The division general
saluted, but almost instantly with

Old Moore's' predictfops.

Phiiel.S.p..~ -uIetin: In his London
almanac for 1900 "Old Moore" predicted
more than II great war, the assassin
alton OF a monarch, and a terrible fam
inc in India, and, as all these predic-
tons proved true, many persons not
only in Europe but also in this coun-
try have been for some time curious TO
know what kind of predictions he
would make In his almanac for 1901.
Their curiosity can now be satisfied.
Tor his almanac for the coming year
has just appeared.
Here are the principal predictions
IN 1t:
In January there will be a formida-
Die agitation in France and severe at
tacks will be made upon the republic.
In February and March most notable
eSefts will take place in the extreme
east n India will threaten to rise up
against the British domination.
Though there will be trouble in vari-
Gus quarters during the entire year.
April VIII be a comparatively quiet
month.
In May Ireland will follow the ex-
ample of India and will rebel against
England.
In June the anarchists will again
come to the front and will give the
world much to talk about. During the
same month the young king of Spain
will be in danger from his political en-
emies, and he is cautioned to guard
against them.
July will be a month Of catastrophes,
the whole world being threatened at
this time with misfortunes of various
kinds. Those who are planning to
take a journey during this month will
do well to remain at home.
August will be comparatively quiet.

work Horses wanted.

The market reports are just now con-
frming the prediction made last fall
that farmers would buy large numbers
of horses this spring, says The Ma
Honal Stockman. When farmers in
sections that formerly marketed big
surplus Of horses have to so to the
cities to buy, it is evident that the sup
ply OF ordinary work horses is no lon
ger excessive. We may look for big
run of range horses eastward this year.
There are still a good many range
horses available. but good sized ones
are not a very large proportion OF the
supply. Some well broken branded
horses are now selling at fair prices in
the market and at country points, but
they do not as rule, come direct from
the range. Range stock will come for
ward before long, however. as the win
ter has been mild, and the horses have
come through In splendid condition.
