Almonds.

The worlds almond crop, exclusive
OF those raised in California and the
west, comes from Italy, Sicily, Ma
jorca, Spain, France, Portugal, Mo
rocco and Algiers. The highly priced
Jordan almonds come from Malaga,
Spain, and not from the Jordan river,
as many people suppose. The common
almond is the most indigestible of all
the nuts and contains very little nour-
ishment. There are many ways, how
ever, in which it is advantageously
used as a desert or as fayoring.
One popularity about the almond tree
is that it's leaves contain prussic acid
and are therefore poisonous, while the
fruit may be eaten with impunity.

THE LICK LENS.
Wonderful Eject Upon 1t of the Heat
From a Mans Hand.

From a Mans Hama.
Some wears ago the writer paid Wis
# to Alyan Clark at Cambridgeport to
witness the testing of the huge lens for
the famous Lick telescope. At the end
of the long, dark room the largest hint
glass then in the world was set up on
edge. From a distance of about htty
feet a pencil of light was flashed into
the heart of the disk and reflected back
into the observers eye. The slightest
imperfections. if any. i'll the glass would
then be revealed by the curves OF hSht
and the lines of polarization.
Now" said Mr.. Clark, Il Will snow

man body gives out heat and when

less extent. Now watch
He walked down to the lens and held
his hand under it about two feet away.
Instantaneously n marvellous spectacle
burst into view. 1t seemed as If the

for the wonder? were the eager ques

The mineral spring a few miles
west of Poplarville, owned by the
Champion Lumber Company, is
very likely to prove a great value
to this town. The water has
been analysed and found to con-
tain very valuable mineral prop
critics, and the company intends
to make a thorough investigation
of it's curative powers. If the
analysis proves to be substan-
tial and correct, it's owners can
easily afford to retire from the
'lum Der business, and this town
will become one of the most nota-
BILE health resorts in the world.

Gratitude.

A very poor and aged man,
busted in planting and grating an
apple tree, was rudelylnterrupted
by this interrogation: "Why do
you plant trees, who cannot hope
to eat the fruit of them?" He
raised himself up, and, leaning
upon his spade, replied: Some
one planted the trees for me be-
fore l was born, and have eaten
the fruit; l now plant for others
that the memorial of my graft
tude may exist when l am dead
and gone"
1t is a species of agreeable
servitude to be under an obliga-
ton to those we esteem. In
gratitude is crime so shameful
that the man has not been found
who would acknowledge himself
guilty of it.
Nothing tenders the heart and
opens the gushing fountain of
love more than the exercise of
gratitude. Like the showers of
spring, that cause flowers to rise
from seeds that have long lain
dormant, tears of gratitude
awaken pleasurable ensations, UNI
known to those who have never
been forced from the sunshine
of prosperity into the cold shade
of adversely, where no warmth
is felt save that of benevolence; nc
light enjoyed but that of charity,
unless it shall be warmth and
light communicated from heaven
to the sincerely pious, who alone
are prepared to meet with calm
submission the keen and chilling
winds of misfortune, and who,
above others, exercise the virtue
of gratitude, IN the full perfection
of it's native beauty.--McComt
Civ Times.
