ALLIGATOR PEARS.
A Variety Of the Fruit That IL PIen-
tiful An Porto Rico. But
Scarce Here.

Alligator pears have not grown any
cheaper since Porto Rico became a part
Of the United States, and New Workers
-aDnot see that their favorite summer
salad is any more plentiful than il was
five or six years ago. when the fruit
began TO be eaten in this city. There
has been no change in the prices, says
the New York sun.
The fruit companies do not import
the alligator pears, curiously enough.
and the supply here is rarely equal to
the demand. Those that come to this
market are brought up by the stew
ards and other employees Of the steam-
ers that ply between this country and
Porto Rico
The pears are difficult to keep unless
they are plucked when green and
brought here to ripen. Then they have
not nearly so much flavor as when they
are brought here just as they have
begun TO ripen.
In this latter case there is little GER
tainty that they will last for more than
"A few hours after they arrive here. Il
is their extreme perisSability that
prevents the fruir importing compan-
les from dealing in them
In Porto Rico the pears are so abund-
ant as TO be practically worthless.
They are not appreciated By the ma
tires as they are here.
Most View Workers still eat them
with French dressing after they have
been peeled and cut into slices. Some
however. declare that the real
flavor Of the alligator pear IS to be
appreciated only when il is eaten with
q little salt. They simply cut thepears
INTO two pieces. salt the inside and
Eat them with a spoon.

Beauty NJ a Bane In Italy.

Florence and Venice and the rest are
cursed with the burden of a most dan
gerous legacy from their past-the leg
ecy of beauty. Because Of this beauty
(which the people themselves do mol
eniov) the rich Of all nations flock to
them. bringing full purses and a dispo-
sition to spare no expense. The native
begins to regard these visitors as his
natural prey. Why should he work
when foreigners are so easily feeced?
Accordingly he does not work-at least
in the productive sense; he tOuts and
begs and sells ornaments at three times
their real value. The victory instead
Of going 10 strength goes to weakness.
Parents Of the poorer class look upon a
deformed or crippled child as a bless
ing. since its pihful helplessness makes
II a more efficient beggar. Into these
cities, where such a fine harvest can be
gathered on such easy terms, the
strong, industrious peasantry are suck
ed till they become idle, demoralized
gamblers, and all because they are the
most beautiful places in the world, be-
cause their past is so glorious that
strangers come from tie ends of the
earth to see its grave. Thus the mod
ern Florentine lives, like some horrible
cannibal, upon his own dead.-London

II is said that some Of the most beau
tiful women Of the world are to be
found among the Indians of the Te-
huantepec isthmus in Mexico. They
are of mixed blood Spanish and In
dian, though the Indian traits generally
predominant.
Their costume for high and holy days
is somewhat extraordinary. They wear
skirts of satin or silk, heavily lace
trimmed. and with short sleeved waists
which may or may not be Of the same

pal feature. being an immense affair Of

point Of resemblance to the headdress

There Is a curious custom among the
men and maldons of exchanging the
twigs of certain trees in perfect Sc
crecy. except that each new twlg is
carried TO the father or mother or
guardian of each. who formally gives as

This is continued until the exchange Of
orange blossoms signifies betrothal.

it is the cook, not the waiter, who
should receive this material expression
OF our favor and that it is the en-
gineer. not the conductor, who should
have the extras for getting us about on
time vixen we travel in haste. OF
course this discovery viii not result in
the searching out Of the man behind
the man who reaches out his hand for
the tip. We shall continue to send our
gratuities along on the same old lines,
getting a Snug contentment over feel
ing that we have done our duty-or is
it the satisfaction of making the petty
display Of our cash resources ?-and
that we can't be expected to chase up
the real benefactor. but it adds an
other complication to the tip question

As to Eating.

It is n good plan not to eat when you
are hurried.
When you are troubled.
When you have no appetite.
When you are laboring under any
strain Of mind.
When you cannot lay aside every
care and give yourself up 10 leisure by
enjoyment OF the meal.
