OLD STAMPS RISE IN VALUE.
Collectors Must Pay From 10 to 100 Pel
 Cent. Over older Prices.

Collectors Must Pay From 10 to 100 Per
 Cent. over older Prices.
 New York Sun.
 The prices of old postage stamps have advanced greatly during the last two years. and the stamp catalogues for 1906 advance sheets of which are all ready in circulation, show general in- crease of 10 per cent. for stamps sought by collectors, while in a number of in- stances stamps have increased In value 100 per cent. or more
 The most notable jump has taken place in the value of the stamp issues of Timor. This is small island In Oceanica, but quite large enough to have stamps of its own.
 One denomination of this country has advanced from 12 cents, the price two years ago, to 322.50 for the coming year, while another denomination, which was sold two years ago for 20 cents, is now listed in the standard catalogues at $25, and is hard to get even at that price. The dealers and collectors do not seem to know the reason for It's great scarcity, which was discovered only when an attempt was recently made to obtain a number of the stamps
 If is often the case that a stamp that has for years been rated as com mon variety is catalogued at low fig ure for the reason that there is no de- mand for 1t, when. as a matter of fact, there are very few to be had. A good example of this is the Dutch West In-

Washington, Nov. 11.-This is the harvest month in great orange groves of Southern California. the time when all the available men, women and chill dren are busy gathering the golden fruit. Statistics collected by the De- pertinent of Agriculture show that in the season of 1904-5 about 31.000 car loads of oranges were shipped from California, and this season the number of carloads will probably reach 35,000. or enough to make a thousand trains. each of thirty-hve cars. Three thou- sand cars will probably be required to haul the Florida crop. and other orange regions will contribute to swell the to- tai. Yet the industry which provides the fruit to fill these thousands of cars is of comparatively recent origin.
 But the orange itself is no parvenu. In classical literature it is mentioned as far back as 420 B. C., and in the ancient Hebrew writings 1t was called hadar or the beautiful" According to the old began legend Venus planted the first orange tree on the island of Cyprus. In Rome the fruit was later known as Adams apple" or Paradise apple" because it was supposed to have been the fruit of the forbidden tree in Paradise. If this myth be credible, the oldest families of Europe are mere up- starts compared with the humble orange of commerce.
 So far as history automatically knows, the orange originated in India and China. and was spread by the Arabs to Syria. Africa and Spain. In Sanscrit 1t has been called 'nagrungo,; in Arabic. "narang";: in Spanish,

fact that in 1893 four cars of oranges were shipped from the Sacramento Val ley. eighty-one cars were shipped in 1896. and in 1901 the shipments had grown to 2.341 cars.
 In the state generally. the months of May, Junej July. August and September are devoted to the cultivation and gen. eral oversight of the orchards. Tn November the fruit begins to mature and the harvest is on. Every man. wo- man and child in the orange district then gets out in the fields and helps with the crops. The oranges continue to ripen through a good part of the year. and some of the Valencia variety will still be shiped during October of the following year.
 Five years after budding or six after planting the seeding trees begin to bear. The trees live so long that an orchard Is practically a permanent in- vestment There is tree at Versailles the seed of which is said to have been planted by Leonora, wife of Charles III. King of France from Sssy to s2s. Several trees at Nice are said to be 600 years old.
 One of the largest factors in the wonderful success of the orange culture was the coming of the Atchison, To- peka and Santa Fe Railroad to Califor- mia. The orange district of Southern California is now tapped by the South ern Pacific. which enters 1t both from the north and south. and the Atchison system. branch of which the Southern California Railroad, crosses the uplands to the east and traverses the orange country. It was the railroads that

on q mileage basis. such as has been
 the tendency in European countries, where the Government fixes the rates, many of the orange groves of Calitor- mia would become suddenly worthless and the fair valleys of San Bernardino and San Gabriel would lapse again into the wilderness.
 The Florida crop this year is esti- mated at 100000 boxes, or about 5000 cars. The State was formerly the leader fin orange culture, and in the year end ing with the spring of 1894 the crop reached the large figure of 6.o0o.000
 boxes. But in the winter of 1S94-9b, two successive freezes swept the Flor
 ida groves, killing all the trees save
 those in the extreme southern portion of the State. In the following season the crop was only 75,O0o boxes Since that time the history of the Florida orange industry has been tale of ups and downs. By 1902 the output had climbed to 1,250.000 boxes, when it re- ceived another setback and fell to 76O,- 900 boxes in the following year. Last year the crop was 1.s50.0o0 boxes. Ari- zona, Louisiana and Texas have also entered the orange market.
 The later history of the orange in America is somewhat prosaic, but the fruit has lost none of Its world-old romance here in the New World. If all the details could be told of it's first planting here. by Cortez's soldiers In Mexico, or by the pious missionaries in Florida and in the summerlands of Call ifornia, and how. afterward, the epio- neers of the gold fields found 1t, when they had abandoned hope for gold. and how the railroads came pushing through the desert and over the mountains and distributed 1t through continent--if such a story could be fully told 1t would outrival any collection of the wonder full orange myths of ancient times.

1 these islanders is due to an effort to secure the decreasing German immf- grafton for certain localities. to the ex- clusion of other sections. The German is appreciated at his full worth in the South. This Is best shown by the ex- istence in almost every Southern State of organizations, usually made up of the membership of Commercial Clubs and Boards of Trade of the larger cities, which have for their object the bringing hither of desirable. and espe- cially of German immigrants. This fact, of itself stamps the accusations of The Morgen Journal as untrue. The Germans living in the South are as highly esteemed as those living in any portion of the United States. Men of German birth are found here nearly everywhere. holding political offices. Considering their numbers they are
 most creditably represented in the busi- ness world, and socially they are treat ed as equals by their American born neighbors. The German settlements found in Alabama, such, as Cullman. Hanceville. Vinemont, Garden City.

 From Spain the orange came to America. It was about $50 years ago that Bernal Diax del Castillo, soldier of Cortez, first planted oranges In Mexico The fruit was brought to Cali foraia by. the Spanish padres. who planted orange trees near the missions in Southern California. These form the basis of the great orchards of to- day.
 The cultivation of orange groves for commercial purposes began in Cali fornia about half century ago. Dur ing the gold excitement that succeeded the year 1S49, thousands of prospectors fiocked to tho gold fields only to find that the glittering fortunes they had been seeking were impossible of achievement.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful IL is iz
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature. but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans ing purpose. e
 Charcoal Is remedy that the more you take of it the better; it Is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of eatarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another. but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money Is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Will low charcoal. and other harmless anti septics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting To- | zenges, the charcoal being mixed with | honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will 1 soon tell in much improved condition of the general health. better complex ion, sweeter breath and purer blood | and the beauty of itsls, that no possi- ! ble harm can result from their contIn- ued use. but on the contrary, great l benefit.
 A Buffalo physician in speakinp of the benefits of charcoal says: T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to alI patients suffering from gas in stomach | and bowels. and to clear the complex- ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; l also believe the liver is great ly oenehted py the daily use of them: at drug stores. and. although in some sense patent preparation, yet I be- lieve I get more and better charcoal fin stuarts Charcoal Lozenges than in any of she ordinary charcoal tablet thU-au-tf. -

 If the heavy receipts of chestnuts oi the nresent week are to be taken as au indication of the size of this years crou and dealers say that they naay--then all lovers of chestnut roasting have abundant cause for rejoicing. Reports from southwestern Virginia. North Carr olina, Tennessee and the western sec tions of Maryland, the territory relied upon by local dealers for their supply of the toothsome nuts. are that full crop will be harvested.
 "But few persons realize the enor- nous quantities of chestnuts annually
 sold in this market" said a member of produce company. From 1000 to
 10000 bushels are each year sold In this city. The greater part of them are bought by the market men and Italian push cart dealers New York and the west also make acquisitions on this city for considerable shipments ok the stock
 'sThe most serious drawback to the cultivation of the chestnut as regu- lar crop is the length of time required for the tree to come into bearing. The tree from the time 1t is set out need not be expected to yield before it in at least fifteen or eighteen years old.
 "The greatest enemy to the chestnut is by all odds the chestnut worm. This little pest Is evidently deposited in the nut while it Is very small--in the bIos- som. should say--and there it re- mains until 1t fattens and crawls forth when the nut is ripe and ready for eating. No remedy for this pest has yet been discovered. and until it is the chestnut as a money maker must remain fearfully handicapped"
