QUEER FRUITS OF JAVA.
Among Them Is the DURAN, Which
Smells AbOminabIy, But Tastes
DeliciOusly.

THE fruits of Java" writes a CORE
sponGent of the Pittsburg Dispatch,
form an interesting study in them
selves, there are so many and of such
strange varieties. The most common
is the strangest of all. 1t is called the
DURAN, and grows like a huge eXcres-
cence from the trunk of a tree some
what similar to our pear tree. The
fruit, which is pear-shaped, grows to
a great size, often several feet in
length, and has a yellow skin, rough
like pineapple. The most remark
able thing about the DURAN, how
ever, is its odor. To say you can smell
it a block off is putting it mildly. A
combination of aged eggs and the rip
est cheese could not be compared with
it. When you break open the hull to
find what can be the cause of all this
disturbance to your ollactory nerves
and find a great cluster of snow-white
kernels which taste like some strange
ly delicious custard your amazement
is greater still.
Another strange fruit is the SER
pent fruit, so called from the fact that
its skin is the exact counterpart of
that of snake. There is the pomoloe.
like a great orange; the potato fruit,
which resembles that vegetable in all
but its fine flavor; the custard apple,
with a yellow custard-like pulp, hav-
ing a rather decided taste of turpen-
tine; the poppae, like melon growing
on tree; the green jack fruit, of
rather a coarse flavor; a small yell
fruit, with an unpronounceable
native name, incased in a great
burr like chestnut; and
hundred other varieties, with none
but native and scientific names,
some good, some Indifferent, and some
entirely unpalatable to any but ma
tive. The orange is rather a scarce
fruit, but the pineapple and banana
are abundant and delicious, especially
the former. There are more than 20
different varieties of bananas native
to Java"

Panama straw hats are highly
fashionable in Japan, though on ac-
count of the price, which is much
higher than that of the ordinary
straw hats, they are bought only by
the rich or the fashionable. This
obstacle may be removed if, as re-
ported in an Osaka paper, the sub
stitutes for the Panama straw found
in middle Formosa are really adapt
ed for the purpose. The substitutes
are said to be the fibers of the
leaves of certain tropical tree of
very rapid growth. Six fibers can
be obtained from each leaf, which is
about four inches wide and four feet
long, and it is said that the cost of
10000 fibers is about six yen. A GER
tain foreign firm of Yokohama is
said to have already given a large
order for the fibers, and the Panama
hats made with this new material
may therefore appear on the mar
ket this summer. If the new fibers
are really suited for headgear For
mosa may be said to have hit upon a,
new resource.-Japan Weekly Times.

GRANDMA.

Grandma sits in her rocking chair
watching the sun go down.
There's yellow glow in her snow-white
hair
AS she sits on the porch in the open air,
That seems like golden crown.
Watching the clouds with dreamy eyes
wonder what Grandma sees?
Is she watching the picture in the skies
Tnat change and fade as the sunlight dies
Above the distant trees?
AL her life she has done her best
To walk in the narrow path;
winch leads to the mansions of the blest
Where longing hearts find peaceful rest
In never-ending day.
And now she is old and her work is done
Her treasures safe on high;
Inc sands of her life are almost run;
Her earthly battles are fought and won,
And Heaven draweth nigh.
What does she see in the summer sky,
watching the suns last ray?
a, shining path to her home on high
Tnat brighter grows as the days go by,
And ends In perfect day.
Frank Beard, in Rams Horn.
