I bless all those who pray TO Coo

In vatican circles there is gossiping
over the great reception by Mgr Ajuti
at Lisbon to celebrate his elevation to
the c~ardinatlate and also yer the
solemnity with which Cardinal Agliardi
today took possession of his new office
of vice chancellor of the church.
The Associated Press correspondent,
however, learns that the pope himself
in his last interview with Cardinal
Agliardi urged the performance Of to-
days ceremony.
In sharp contrast with these cere-
monies are the continuous preparations
at the vatican for the death of the

Doctors La-poni and MaZZoni also
lutely deny the statement published in
the United States that Pope Leo IS
suffering from cancer n ridicule it as
an ignorant invention. They sag they
are sure hat DR.. Rossoni takes the
same view.
The Rome correspondent Of the eau
lois says when DR.. Mazzoni entered
the sick room yesterday morning and
found the pope seated in his arm chair
feeling less exhausted, he said:
"What would You say, holy father if

Is there much of breeze stirring
high up in the air?" he was asked.
TO this he replied that one would be
surprised at the difference in the
temperature on the ground, and 200

above the surface Of the earth, and
sometimes he is forced to work in the
face Of u strong wind. An instance

lar working clothes, suit of leather,

comfortable, although he was little
sunburned afterwards. but tho people

Deterioration in Cities.

= A great many men who have come
to cities, after living in the country
for years wonder at their general de-
terioration, physically and mentally.
They are not conscious Of any lack Of
effort to live straight, clean lives, but
the unnatural conditions of cities
have been slowly undermining their
character, physical stamina, and mem
tai fiber, and there is general letting
down Of standards. Some incident
perhaps meeting a fresh, unspoiled
friend from the old home-makes
them reulize that something has gone
cut Of their lives, something practical :
ly helpful and inspiring. Innocence
has been traded for knowing worldli-
ness, frankness. for deceptive policy,
kindliness for cringing subservience,
and charity and helpfulness for brutal
indifference. e.-Success.

Grocery men and peddlers GO to
these markets and purchase their daily
supplies. Thousands of dollars pass
hands. But the point that is most
noticed is that great part Of the fruit
offered for sale is green and entirely
unfit for eating.
The enormous business done in the
sale Of fruits will be apparent when it
is known that during last month
there were shipped into the New York
504, 400 bunohcs Of bananas, which,
at the average price received, amount
cd to money value of $I9,e95 day.
Of pineapples for the same period
there were received here 94 ,O21 crates
and 7,841 barrels, amounting to from
$4,000 to $4,000 day. OF lemons
there were received 1Sl, ,694 boxes,
representing value Of $4,000 day.
The number of boxes Of oranges re-
ccived at this port was 275 ,533 for the
last month, representing daily ex-
pcnditurc Of more than $4,000.
For the week just passed the ship
mcnt of apples was 16, $40 barrels, and
the amount paid OFT each day for them
was $4,000.
The expenditure of the jobbcrs at
wholesale rates for these fruits alone
amounts to more than s6G 900 a day.
Taxing into account the increase in
retail prices and the sale Of other
small fruits and vegetables, { is safe
to estimate that the daily sales in
New York city amount to more than
500, 600

Told In a Dream.

Here is an interesting, il somewhat
creepy story which reaches us
from correspondent upon whose
good faith we can rely. A certain
young lady whom we will call Mary
A., was recovering from illness. The
doctor had declared her to be out Of
danger, and her friends and relatives
were rejoicing in the fact. Never
theless, Miss A., receiving visit one
day from sister, gravely assured her
that she vas going to die. TIE Sis
.sr peehpeohed the idea aud treated
it as an invalid's fancy. Miss A.,
however, with the utmost ca,mness,
repeated her statement She was
certain that she would die that night
and begged her sister TO fetch her pa
rents and other relatives to say good
by. Thinking to humor her, the sis
ter complied. One person was absent

brother, who was 81 sea aud was ex-
pected home in week or two. "But
it does not matter" Miss A. quietly
observed. II saw him last night in a
dream and said good by to him in his
cabin" Before the sun rose again
Miss A. 8 prediction had come true;
she was dead. That, however, is not
the strapgest part of this weird story.
When ia due time the sailor brother
reached port he was met by his other
sister who began to tell him the sad
news. "Ah," he interrupted, "you
need not tell mel Mary is dead.
