RuyfnR Fruit.

The prudent man never buys the
fruit which Is marked with the highest
prices, and his motive Is not merely
economy. He knows that the second
grade fruit is ripper than the most ex-
pensive, which in nine cases out of ten
Is too green to be eaten Immediately.
1t Is held at high prices because the
dealer knows that it will keep, and as
1t ripens and grows better fit for hui
man consumption Its price Will be re
duced That Is the stage of the fruit
when the price Is lowered for the first
time. 1t is then ripe and In condition
to be eaten. And the prudent man who
doesn't always feel that he has got the
best article only when he pays the
most for 1t buys his fruit Mt the marked
down price.-New York Sun.

OPPORTUNITY FOR ANTI.

The insurgents, or at least that part
of them that belong to the juntas
scattered over the world, do not seem
to be we'll informed concerning mat
tiers pertaining to the FRAGILE of a
rebellion which still exists in the
Philippines. The cable brings the
news from Paris that Agoncillo, the
European agent of the Pettigrews and
Atkinsons, has received information
that General Sandico has been chosen
ccess to A%guinaldo as command.
ing general and dictator of the Fill
pino forces. Just how they expect
Sandlco to perform the duties of his
double office does not appear clear,
inasmuch as he has been a prisoner
of the Americans since the first of
the present month. Another thing
that may seriously Interfere with
the new dictator and general in the
way of acting as such is the fact that
some very serious charges rest
against him and he may be tried on
some of them. 1t is very evident that
the fellows must try again and make
another effort to secure a new head.
Perhaps when Charley" Towne and
the rest OF the ants who are contem.
plating a visit to the islands get
there they will straighten out things.
1t is possible that one of their number
may be chosen to fill the now doubly
vacant place of dictator and com
handing general. Towne is not much
OF a military man, but as dictator he
might do in a pinch. ..
