WiSdOm's Whispers

The romance of the old maid
always has sadly pathetic
side to it.
Bachelors insist that the ex-
actions of women keep them
from matrimony.
Women like to start dis

to fight it out.
Some men are as unreasona-
BILE in their likes as they are in
their dislikes.
When a woman enters on a
business career she takes on
curious little airs of import

Rare Blood Red Apple.

Susquehanua Penn. Cor. Phil
adelphia Record: Prof. James
A. Graves, OF this city, has just
sent to Prof, Surface, the state
zoologist, a peculiar apple, the
strange coloring of which has
excited his curiosity and for
which he cannot, although lie
is a botanist of 40 years expert
ence, account.
Prof. Graves says that last
summer he was at Stockport,
Penn, and was shown a very
old apple tree on the estate of
Ann Preston. He was told that
it bore apples with greenish
yellow skin under which was a
blood.red pulp to the core. He
arranged that several of the APP
pies should be sent to him when
they ripened and he recently
received them. They are ordi'
nary looking on the outside but
upon cutting them open they
are at first blood.red and near
the core turn to purple.
There is an Indian legend
connected with the tree which
is generally believed by the
common people of the vicinity,
An Indian chief of the Della
wares named Walla Wocka was
out hunting one day and was
murdered by member of his
tribe. who. in order to conceal
the crime, buried his body at
the foot of an old apple tree.
The disappearance of the
chief remained a mystery to his
tribe until the fall of the year,
when the apples, being plucked
we're found to be blood-red.
Searching for the cause of
this transformation, members
of the tribe dug about the roots
and found the body of their
murdered chief.
Ever since then the apples
have remained blood-red, say
those who recite the legend.

Bethlehem, Pa, Dec. ii
Twin chickens were Matched
from one egg last spring on the
farm of john Paulus. Both de-
veloped fully and became great
pets of the family. Monday
one of Paulus' Eorses fell in his
stall and had to be killed.
While a tackle was being rugged
to handle the dead animal, one
of the twin chickens flew on a
pulley and was crushed to
death. Since the accident the
other twin has refused to eat
and Paulus fears it will die of
grief. Paulus has refused sew
eral tempting offers for the
PAIR OF fowls from circus peo-
pie, and regrets the loss of the
bird more than~~that of the
horse.

On the contrary, I repeat now that

William F. Sheehan's attention was
