Increasing Popularity OF the Alligatc

Increasing Popularity of the Alligator
Pear.
The increasing popularity of the avo.
cado, or alligator pear, has brought the
Brazilian variety into great prominence
of late. AS a matter of fact, the fruit
is not pear at all, but belongs to the
laurel family The chief authority ON
the subject is picturesque West In
dian, who imports these exotic dainties,
and who is an enthusiast on the sub
ject.
"The avocado" he said lis food and
When nature made il, she intended it
as the highest development Of the vege-
table world. 1t is delicious, but not
cloyng. 1t has its own characteristics,
but will gratefully accept all other
navOrs. For this reason it is the only
fruit which can be eaten plain, with
pepper and salt, with lemon juice and
sugar, or with salad dressing.
New Englanders have made it
into successful pie, which,
to be candid, l do not recon.
mend, because l think pies are bar
barous; and Brazilian cooks convert
it into marvellous custard pudding.
The popularity Of the pulp is that it
contains a large amount Of fixed oil,
which gives it a nutrltiye value supe-
rior to the olive and the peanut and
makes it almost equal to the egg.

Fatal Tossing in a Blanket.

The Kent Coroner opened an inquest
at the hospital at Shorncllffe camp on

evidence showed that the deceased's

sustaining severe injuries to his head
and death resulting from choking while
unconscious. The Coroner said there
was no question as to the cause of
death, but it appeared that the de.

AUTOS HURT ROAD HOUSES.
They Are Said 20 BE Driving the Horse
men on che Country Roads.


They Are said 10 BE Driving the Horse
men on che Country Roads.
There are dark days ahead for many
Of the road houses on the principal
highways leading out from this city In
al directions, and according to the pro-
prletors, the trouble Is due to the auto
mobiles largely.
Road houses first came into being
when the highways were used by trav'
elers in stage coaches or on horseback.
Many of the houses built at that pc
rlod are still standing and are we'll
known landmarks. When the railroads
came into existence some of the road
houses went out of business.
A few years ago when cycling was n
craze prosperous times came for the
waysde inns. The old-time houses
were not able to accommodate all the
people who came their way and hun.
dreds of new inns were crested. Then
cycling went out OF fashion over night
aud many innkeepers found expensive
establishments on their hands with no
patronage except that derived from
the driving public.
Road driving began to pick up year
or so ago, and the road house proprle-
tors began to take roseate view Of
the future as their receipts increased.
There was more money in one driver
than in several cyclists. But at this
turn of the tide of the hotel owners af.
fairs the automobiles began to whizz
and snort past their places.
The result has been to scare the road
driver away, the lnnkeepers say. Men
have either abandoned driving alto.
gether or have sought the back roads
or highways. where they are free from
the annoyances of the automobiles.
Their patronage Is lost to the hotel
keepers. The owners Of the autos give
them no compensating patronage.
The proprietor of one road house sat
on the front veranda of his place the
| other night having absolutely nothing
to do. For many years his house was
a popular resort in Queens County. In
the summer time it was always
| thrOnged with visitors. In speaking OF
the conditions that have oyertaken
men of his business he said;
I'VE had good thing of it when cy-
cling was all the go. When that died
out we missed the cyclists, but driving
picked up, and we could have made
out on what we got from the horse
men. But the automobiles are put.
ting us out of business.
"They have driven the horsemen
from the roads, and they themselves
seldom stop within twenty miles of
their starting place. The cold fact is
that road house business is a thing of
the past
MY lease expires next year and
down comes my sign. 1t has been
hanging up there for three generations.
This house has a great reputation. My
father made money here and my grand.
father before him. 1 am able to give
better accommodations than either of
them. but there Is no trade to cater to-"
