les of the originals, now also, like the
diamonds, in the possession Of the old
Sir Isaac, the usurer."
A teardrop came into her dark, lus-
trous eyes as she spoke, and In my
mind was pictured at that moment the
whole story of the old dukes riotous
and extravagant career and Of his an
gelic daughters consequent privation
and maidenly shame. The pity of 1t
touched my heart, and that, together
with the sad and surprising loveliness
of her present appearance, 80 wrought
upon me that I caught her to me,
swore that l loved her as never mortal
damizella was loved before and be-
sought her to name upon the instant
the happy day. To my astonishment,
she drew away from me, and upon her
face there was q look Of fear and Of
indecision.
"Oh, Timoteo," said she in accents Of
tenderness, Il do love thee right well,
believe ME, but how can I, oh, how can
I link my young life with one who Is
descended from the devil?"
NAY, Signorina Albizzi," said I, with
some hauteur, while at the same time
l wondered much at her remark. II
am indeed of old and noble lineage, but
beshrew me If claim to trace 1t back
to the gentleman whom thou didst men
ton"
1T cannot be-" said she, gazing at
me with her magnificent eyes wide
open in surprise, that thou hast not
heard the tale which is told in every
corner of the land anent the family of
the Pazzi? Surely thou dost but jest"
"3y a whole wagon load Of saints"
said I.
"This, then. was the tale, fair prince,
az 1t was told me by my grandam
whiles that was but small child:
It was many years ago that the thing
first happened, being at the time when
my great.grandsire, Galeazzo Albizzi,
had the misunderstanding with thy
great-grandfather, Lodovico de- Pazzi."
At this moment the countess gave
startled and terrified glance over my
shoulder and at the same time uttered
a quick cry Of alarm. 1 turned swiftly
and beheld standing within the door
way of the stair which led below a
burly and hirsute ruffian. We had been
so taken up with each other and the
sweet moments Of our interview had
sped so pleasantly that we had made
no account of where we were and had
forgotten the presence Of the robbers
In the castle until all In twinkling we
found them upon us.
The rogue was unarmed, and as /
drew my sword and made spring for
him he turned to run down the stair,
placing his right hand upon the door
casing as he went out. At this second
l slammed the door to, catching his
wrist between it and the jamb. 1t was
a heavy door and did not fit very close
" to the casing, so that his hand stuck
straight out into the room like point
ing hand upon a signboard. he natu-
rally raised great ado about the mat
ter.
"Cut 1t OFF, cried Ippolita.
1t was happy suggestion which the
darling girl had made, and went to
work and gave 1t two or three hacks
and sawed at it awhile and haggled at
1t and finally got 1t off. I was ashamed
Of the operation, for had done much
better when was student. All this

TURF, FARM AND HOME EDITORIAL
CHIT CHAT,

The apple situation in this state is
getting very interesting. Buyers are
purchasing freely in this vicinity the
best fruit to be delivered on the cars at
$3.50 per barrel. We are thoroughly
of the opinion that this price is too
low. We notice that our New York ex-
changes say that orchardists in western
New York are holding out for $3.50 per
barrel with good chance of obtaining
it. The Rural New Yorker, perhaps the
best fruit authority in New York, takes
the same ground that we do that there
is a short crop, and it does not advise
growers to sell at prices being offered at
present. 1t closes recent editorial on
the subject with the following words:
Suppose the apple shippers had had
reports all their own way, as was the
case few years ago. "Big crop" stories
would have frightened many growers
into giving away good share of their
fruit We followed the crop through
from the time of the great freeze and no
reader has been deceived.

Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1902-10-14

1t seems that the southern and west
ern growers of apples are trying to steal
the reputation of the northern grown
fruit, to help out the fruit that they
produce. At the eighth annual meeting
of the National Apple Shippers Asso-
citation, held in Rochester, n. Y, last
month the following very significant
resolution was adopted
Resolved by the National Apple
Shippers Association in annual conven-
tion assembled, and deemed to be of
the greatest importance that all exhib-
itors should be required to give salts
factory evidence and proof that their
respective exhibits are in fact as we'll as
in name from the respective sections,
state or country as represented.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1902-10-14

We certainly do not want to mislead
our readers or the public generally, in
regard to the true condition of the apple
crop, but are bound to say that from all
information we can gather that the
growers of fruit that will keep, are
making a mistake in sacrificing it at
this early season for $3.50 per barrel.
When it is remembered that the barrel
to hold the apples costs from 20 to %
cents to start with, to which must be
added the picking and packing, and the
hauling to the car which is no small
item, with the present scarcity of labor,
and the grower after deducting all these
expenses, not forgetting the spraying
and caring for his trees all through the
season, will have little left for his labor.
We believe that it is safe to limit present
sales for fruit that will keep to $500,
and our best judgment is that it will
bring $500 before many weeks, but if
we had the selling of it we would not
sell barrel unless we could realize at
least $500 for the fruit. If any one
differs with us on this subject we should
be more than pleased to give them space
for their argument in our paper. We
wish that growers would avail them
selves of the opportunity to make known
through our columns the prices that are
being offered for fruit in their several
sections. Such information would be
very valuable in getting at the real sit
uation of the market.
