THE POETRY OF THE ORANGE.

1t appeals to you, when the fruit
hangs ripe and sweet on the tree late
in February, or early in March Then
the blossoms break out, and the trees
are yellow with golden globes, and
with with orange flowers 1t may
be that a furry of snow has whiten-
ed the mountain tops, and then you
have an artistic background for a
tropical forest. The air is fuli- of
sunshine, and heavy with fragrance
as night comes on, and then, II the
moon be shining, you may hear at
midnight through open windows, the
song Of the mocking-bird in the
scented grove, and 1t never seemed
so melodious before.
An experience like this is possible
any winter, and it Is worth a journey
of thousand miles, while you can
have 1t, by taking the scenic Shasta

MONEY MICROBES.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Clinton N.

several years ago injured one of his
eyes and the wound nearly healed.
Last Friday, while handling some
paper money, the eye irritated him
and he rubbed it. On Saturday 1t
became greatly inhamed and he con-
suited his physician, who said he
must have gotten some injurious mi
crobes from the money and put them
into his eye while rubbing it.
AS the condition Of the eye rapidly
became worse and the other eye was
affected, the physician decided that
Mr.. Moffett must have the injured
organ removed in order to save the
sight of the other eye.
