The Montague City Rod Co. has
recently completed a very substan-
tial looking structure at the head of
Lake Brook. The old dam has been
taken away and a new one built upon
ledge in the bed of the brook. Its
length is some 212 feet, the material
is stone and cement, OF which some
200 barrels were used. A steel pen
stock and substantial gate house
have been put in, the whole costing
about $140O. This will give the
company more perfect control of the
water in Fairlee Lake, insuring reg
ular and sufficient power at the Rod
Factory. AS a climax to the whole
operation, the old mill, which was
almost wreck and was very un-
slightly and disfguring to the sur
roundings was burned down on Tues.
day morning.

j. Pierp's Little Joke.

One morning several weeks after
the coal strike began Russell Sage and
J. Pierpont Morgan were riding down
to business on an elevated train. The
conversation naturally turned to the
coal strike, chances Of the output,
prices coal would bring, etc.
Mr.. Sage was telling Of their good
luck in procuring a lot at moderate
cost per ton. Mr.. Morgan bantered
him about the quality, claiming he did
not get the real article at the price he
mentioned.
ooh, yes" said Mr.. Sage, 'that coal
is all right; the real article. l know
it, for each piece is stamped 'Lehigh.' "
That's a good one" answered the
arbiter of finance; ''but I'm thinking,
Uncle RUSSELL" as he slapped the sage
of Lawrence Beach good naturally on
the shoulder; ''I'm thinking that the
next lot you or any one else will get,
instead Of being stamped 'Lehigh,' the
chances are that it will be stamped
'D-high.' New York Times.

Apple Is King.

The boy is indeed the true apple
eater, and is not to be questioned
how he came by the fruit with
which his pockets are filled. 1t be-
longs to him and he may steal it 1t
it cannot be had in any other way.
His own juicy flesh Graves the juicy
flesh Of the apple. Sap draws sap.
His fruit eating has little reference
to the state of his appetite. Whether
he be full of meat or empty Of meat
he wants the apple just the same.
Before meal or after meal it never
comes amiss. The farm-boy munches
apples all day long. He has nests
of them in the hay-mow, mellow
ing, to which he makes frequent
visits. Sometimes old brindle, hav-
ing access through the open door,
smells them out and makes short
work of them.
The genuine apple eater comforts
himself with an apple in their sea-
son as others with pipe or cigar.
When he has nothing else to do or
is bored he eats an apple. While he
is waiting he eats an apple, some
times several of them. When he
takes walk he arms himself with
apples. His travelling bag is full of
apples. He offers an apple to his
companion and takes one himself.
They are his chief solace when on
the road. He sows their seed all
along the route. He losses the core
from the car window and from the
top of the stage-coach. He would,
in time, make the land ont vast or
chard. He dispenses with knife.
He prefers that his teeth shall have
the first taste. Then he knows the
best flavor is Immediately beneath
the skin, and that in pared apple
this is lost. If you will stew the
apple, he says, instead of baking it.,
by. all means leave the skin on. 1t
improves the color and vastly
heightens the flavor of the dish.
The apple is masculine fruit;
it belongs to the open air and re-
quires an open air taste and relish.
