sAe Preferred violet in Her Medicine,
But Peppe rmint being Popular
would DO.

When the doctor asked the woman
about her appetite and her throat ana
the pain III her shoulder, she just lay
there with closed eyes and said; On
oh. ohls most pitifully. But when ne
began TO write prescription sne
braced up and spoke her first connect
ed sentence Of thu SAorning, relates 'nc
New York Times.
"What are you going 70 na'0r =

'Peppermint,r he said.
She sat bolt upright then,
sOh. don't!" she said. Il hate pep

lets? use violet perfumes sloieI
powders, and violet creams, ana :

The doctor firished writing the pre-
scription before speaking He had 2
rood deal to say. and he wanted to get
real business off his hands before ne
said it.
~No.n he said, Il cannot favor your
medicine with violets. You could not
take it if | should. Some kinds OF med
icine require one favor to make them
agreeable to the taste, others require
something else. have never used the
essence Of yioletsin anypreparation. !

IN my opinion you wish to carry con-
sistency to ridiculous lengths. Suii'
YOU might prevail upon some people
to humor you, even though you would
not be able to swallow the stuf. There
are fashions in fiayoring medicine, as
in everything else, and the violet may
some day have its inning. There was
! time not long ago when dose OF
medicine tasted like bunch OF sweet
peas. Time and again lavender has
risen into high favor, and then has
fallen from grace through sheer inconr
stancy Of the ailing public. Pepper
mint has held its own through all the
changes better than any other flavor,
In fact, it may be called the standard
essence. Just now it is also the fash
ionable one, but in that respect II u
apt to be superseded at any time by
some other sweet herb.
"The flavor Of q medicine is a minor
consideration, anyway, so far as its
effectiveness is concerned. 1t is really
atoncession to the taste of the patient,
and SO long as it does not clash with
the necessary ingredients it makes
but little difference what flavor il
used"
"Then why can't have violets in thii
instance?" persisted the woman.
Because violets would make the con
coction stall more disagreeable. Pep
permint is what you need in this case
"But you faid peppermint was fash
ionable, SO ] suppose it will be al
right" she conceded with resignation

APPLE CORES TRANSLATED.
Apparently worthless Refuse OF
Western Evnporating Factories
Is shipped 10 France.

There was some fruit raised in the
United States last year. The number
Of bushels Of apples exported to Eu-
rope since last season opened being
reported at 2,014,65s This was
against 674,990 barrels for the same
period in 19O1-2 and 1,211,234 in 19o0-1.
The total shipments for the week
ending February were 45,6o1 bar
rels, of which 1927 were from Port
land, says the Portland Press, of re-
cent date. This was more than five
times as many as were sent in the
same week last year. 1t is no won
der in view of these figures that the
apple market is drugged, and that
shippers are feeling sore. But though
millions have been exported, more
millions remain behind. The esti-
mated apple storage in the United
States and Canada on February was
a.124, $50 barrels, against 1,153,O00 in
February, 1902. OF these 2,139,949
were in cold storage and 74s,74O bar
rels common; and there were in
Maine 125,000 barrels against 10000
last year.
Among the articles of export from
Portland may be noticed now and
then quantity of apple cores and
skins. 1t may seem at first hardly
worth while to ship over sea such
stuff which is usually regarded as
worthless refuse. But they know a
thing or two in France which we do
not. Large quantities of cores and
skins accumulate at the apple-evap-
Grating factories. These are dried,
compressed and shipped across the
water, where cunning cooks make
from them a jelly which becomes the
basis of currant jelly, raspberry jelly,
or any kind of jelly you want. It is
only matter Of getting the right
fiavoring, and the French chemists
viii see to that. Moreover, there is
a shrewd suspicion that the same ap-
pie product is used in fixing up light
wines; so that the exported apple
cores may come back next year dis
guised as fine French jellies, cordials
or wines.

Expensive bulbs.

Five hundred dollars was often
paid in Holland during the famous
tulip craze for a bulb of the Admiral
Liefkens or of the Gcuda variety,
81 900 to $1,000 for Viceroy, and
81, 900 for Semper Augustus. In
1884 the craze became so great that
all usual industries were abandoned.
A choice bulb sold for 81 300 in cash,
two horses, carriage and set Of
harness, representing in all $4,000.
Persons frequently invested $4,000
in a few dozen bulbs with which to
begin business, mortgaging their
houses or giving personal property
in exchange. These extraordinary
values checked the cultivation Of
tulips, as the bulbs could be bought
and at once sold at profit to
spectators. Finally the real tulip
lovers became disgusted. and in Feb
ruary, 1887, suddenly placed large
quantities of the most valuable yari-
cites upon the market. This pro-
duced an immediate and disastrous
decline in the price of bulbs. With
out days warning, thousands found
themselves ruined. It was several
years before Holland overcame the
effects of this strange mania.-Chi-
cago Daily News.
