 Among the English.
 Said to be cure for many ills of the body, from gout to indigestion, ap- pie tea is quite the latest thing in bev, erages in England, says a special Lon don cable dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 It Is a substitute for tea, coffee and cocoa and is the discovery of Professor Ebbard, an eminent German doctor. Apple tea is made in Germany from a particular sort of apple which will grow only in certain soil The peel, which possesses such nourishing quail ties, with about half an inch of pulp attached, is used. The pips are also used and are slowly dried according to q certain process which efectually prevents mildew or rot, and when finished appear like bits of cork
 Apple tea is made in the same way as ordinary tea, and in flavor and color very much resembles good Chinese Fly son tea.

DR DOUGLAS HYDE
His Admirers Look for a Big At
 tendance at Lecture.

The Outlook, Dr Lyman Abbott s weekly paper is not accustomed 10 blow it's horn about anything lrisn, yet on October 14 it said of Dr Hyde and the Irish revival:
 The announcement that Dr Douglas Hyde. president of the Gaelic league, is coming to this country for the pur- pose of featuring on the origin sig- nificence and results of that move ment, will interest all those who value this characteristic expression of Gael ic sentiment and feeling in behalf of its language and literature. The Gael ic league was formed twelve years ago for the purpose of keeping the Irish language as a spoken language and of preserving and disseminating its literature as well ss fostering new literature Dr Hyde, who IS known in Ireland as Creeveen7 Eeyin >(the delightful little branch), has been it's president from the start. The movement made little progress at the beginning but the men who were con nected with it were enthusiastic Irishmen who believed that nothing could save Ireland from the oblitera- ton of it's racial and spiritual lines, save a revival of the old Irish spirit and an appeal to Irish loyalty and sentiment. Under the presidency of the ever watchful and ever active Ir Hyde, language, literature, folk stor- ias, dances and games were reviyed; the old literature was re-published, Il new literature appeared and the Irish drama was created. Six years ago Dr Hyde published literary history of Ireland, which is of the first impor- tance and magnitude. The country has at last caught the fever of na- tional rejuvenation. Almost every town has organized it's festival and offered prizes for Irish music. dan cing and literature. Over 100000 books and phamphlets are distributed by the league every year. Practical results are seen in tue s3tta progress of the study of the Irish Ian guage, in the interest with which the Irish drama has been received in the revival of old songs. stories and games. The movement has been due very largely to pr Hyde's persistence. enthusiasm and power of expression, and he will be heard with great inter est ln this country.
 Dr Hyde will lecture in Polls the ater in this city, Thursday. Decem- Der 14. Tickets may be obtained from any member of the Gaelic league, the Sarsfield club. the Ladies' auxil- iary and A. o. H., and from many of the officers and members of the Knights of Columbus.
 There will be q meeting this even- ing of the promoters of the affair in the rooms of the Gaelic society. All interested are invited.

w. H. Garvin, the hus ling manager
of the Fruit Growers Association, re-
turned from the east this week. He re-
ports growing desire among investors
to secure piece of land. 1t is fast be-
coming known that this state has other
fields of profit besides our vast mining
interests. Fruit and agricultural lands
are now being sought for, and it is a
safe conclusion that Paonia will contin-
ue her marvellous growth for another
year.
The Gould brothers were transact ng
business in Paonia this week. They are
getting everything ready to put in a hy-
draulic plant in the spring, this SEEM
ing the most feasible plan whereby
to get the dirt to the big dam. Next
year will see this reservoir scheme COM
pleted, many settlers will find homes
under it. 1t is in these ways that vast
areas are being added to this North
Fork county and its tributaries, all of
it being the finest of soil.
/. H. Luke, superintendent of this di-
vision, spent Tuesday night in Paonia
and is of the firm belief that this branch
will be standardized next year. This
seems to have been fully determined by
the D. & r. G.. who appreciate our
rapidly growing needs. Statistics of
present business and future prospects
have been considered carefully by them,
and upon this basis broad gauge has
evidently been determined for the Ou-
ray and Paonia portions of this road.
We shall expect to see work begin ear
ly in the spring.
