PRINTS PHOTOS ON APPLES
Portrait of Edward VII. on French
Fruit Arouses Interest-The
Method Explained.

A firm Of fruit auctioneers at Covent
Garden recently received from France
remarkable consignment of apples.
On each apple was a portrait of King
Edward VII. The fruit created a
great sensation in the market, and
brought big price. The apples were
of the Peasgood Nonsuch variety. A
Photographic film was fixed on them
just before they colored, and the
foliage was fastened away from them
to insure full exposure to the sun. The
portrait of his majesty was put upon
these first fruits, because the French
peasants consider the entente cor
dale" greatly due to the king. Doubt
less in future years many will emulate
the example of the ingenious French
cultivator and produce portrait fruits
AS advertisements they would be very
valuable.

TOLSTOI BOYS FIGHT JAPS.
Although the Count Is Denouncer of
Present War, Sons Are
with Russians.

Count Tolstoi, social reformer, abb
nors all wars and denounces the par
ticular war which is now raging be-
tween Russia and Japan, yet three
sons of his have quit the wolf trails
to go man-hunting in the far east.
The eldest boy and brother are
camped with the army Of Kuropatkin,
having been at the front for several
months. The youngest son not
long ago declared his intention of vol
unteering and already may have
donned the uniform of a soldier Of the
ear. This action has affected the
aged count greatly and he has been
seen to weep. The war has brought
hnusal family dissension into the
Tolstoi household. The countess is ut
terly at variance with her husband on
account of his denunciation of the con-
dict Only Tatyana, the eldest daugh-
ter, adheres to her fathers views and
seeks to give him solace. Tatyana is
gifted woman. The Tolstoi essay
against war, published in the London
Times, was only sketched out by the
count. His daughter filled out the
draft and gave it the literary finish

SEA HAS CROWN DEEPER.
Level of the Mediterranean Nine Feet
Above That During Old
Roman Times.

The phenomenon of the changes in the
level of the sea is one which is well
shown in the case of the Mediterranean.
NJ. Phi. Negris, in a recent brochure
presented to the Academy of Sciences,
furnishes interesting information on
this point, it being apparent that the
sea has greatly increased in depth as
compared to ancient times. Formerly
bridge 5000 feet long united Leucade
to the continent. To-day it is sub
merged, but the foundations of the work
were discovered, II feet beneath the
surface 1t may therefore be concluded
that since the construction of the bridge
the sea has risen at this point over nine
feet At Itea, in the Bay of Amphissa,
there has been observed a mole that is
also over nine feet beneath the surface.
At Rhenee there has been found COM
pletely submerged dock, evidently OF
Roman construction, the depth of the
sea above the dock at places being fully
nine feet From all of these facts one
may conclude that there has taken place
an important increase in the depth Of
the sea since the Roman period, the
Mediterranean having risen at least
nine feet in 1000 years.

FRUIT TREES FROM EAST.
LYNN, Mass, Man Was the First to
Introduce Industry Into
California.

1t was a Lynn (Mass.) man who
carried to California her first fruit
trees. e. A. ingalls,, '49-er, took
from Lynn to California 55 years ago
the shipment of cultivated fruit trees
that started the states great fruit
growing industry. When the gold
fever broke out Mr.. ingalls,, a young
man then, took passage round the
Horn. The voyage required 1873 days.
All the pioneers carried such things
as they thought would be useful and
profitable to sell or trade, but MIR. In
gals luggage was the most cumber-
some of any, for his fruit trees were
numerous and of all sorts. He dis
posed of these trees at good price,
and then set out for the interior to
find gold He found none. His luck
was miserable. So he returned to
Lynn again and there his life was
as successful as in California it had
been unsuccessful. Mr.. ingalls, was
lawyer, and a business man in Lynn
and his is one of the most honored
names in the towns history. 1t
should be one of the most honored
names in CALIFORNIA; history, too. 1t
was no small thing to have started
that great state on her magnificent
fruit-growing career.

Origin of the Christmas Tree

The Christmas tree is supposed to
have originated in Germany, but such
is not the case. In reality the Christ
mas tree is from Egypt. and dates
from a period long antecedent to the
Christian era. The palm tree is
known to put forth a shoot every
month, and a spray of this tree with
~ shoots on it was used in Egypt at
the time of the winter solstice as a
symbol that the year was complete
Egyptian affections of an early date
still linger with the Christmas tree
The first Christmas tree was intro
duced into England and thence into
America by some German merchants
who lived in Manchester.

The many friends of Rev. Guy G.
Lamson in this county will be pleased
to learn that he has again declined a
call to Calvary church, New York, and
will remain at Montpelier, though at a
very much smaller salary. After his
first two refusals of the call great pres
sure was brought to bear on him to re-
consider. The Daily Journal says: "The
people of Montpelier, both in his con-
gregation and out of it, will be rejoiced
to hear the result of his final decision"

Christmas Legend,

There ia a legend in Germany that
when Eve piuched the ialai apple. i'm
mediately the leaves of the tree shriv-
eled into needle points and its bright
green turned dark. 1t changed its
nature, and became the evergreen, In
all seasons preaching the story Of
mans fall. Only on Christmas does it
bloom brightly with lights and become
beautiful with love gifts-the curse is
turned into a blessing at the coming
of the Christ Child, and We have our
Christmas tree.

The Coming Issue.

President Roosevelt loses no opportu-
nifty to impress his views upon senators
and members, railroad magnates and
others on the subject of regulating rail-
road rates, says the Wall Street Journal.
His message said:
"In my Judgment the most important
legislative act now needed as regards the
regulation of corporations is this act to
confer on the Interstate Commerce Com
mission the power to revise rates and
regulations, the revised rate to at once
go into effect and to stay in effect unless
and until the court of review reverses
H."
He has talked with j. Pierpont Morgan
on the subject, with Mr.. Ripley, with
Mr.. Mellen, Senators Elxins, Scott,
Knox, Platt and others, and all have
come away firm in the opinion that the
President intends to use his official and
personal influence to have something"
done. What, no one yet knows.
He talked with special committee of
commercial travellers on the subject,
and they assured him that their associa-
tlon OF So,OOo men were WlCh MIN 10 d
