ended his life. He was one of the
earliest settlers of that section, having
moved there in 1851. He was a good

thereby. In former years he belonged
to the denomination known as the

An Italian who cannot read or write
is selling fruit on the road out of Des
Moines and is reported to be one of the
most successful statesmen in this line in
the state. His orders come in in the
shape of drawings, and are curiosities.
The Italian understands the numerals
and is good drawer. He. carries an
assortment Of colored pencils and with
these sends in very ineligible order
blanks. For example, ifa man orders
a dozen boxes Of oranges, he draws a
picture of the box with number of
orange colored circles reposing in 1t to
represent oranges and puts the number
of boxes wanted ovel the drawing. If
it is apples he draws barrel with a
number of red circles at the opening,
if bananas he makes picture of a
bunch of bananas and indicates how
they are to be shipped by drawing on
the sheet picture of either an express
or freight car. He has characters in
colors representing other grades of fruit
and seldom makes mistake. With the
orders he generally encloses the card Of
his customer to show to whom they are
to be consigned. Moines Leader.
