remarked

No help coming, the councillors grew
desperate. Beads OF perspiration stood
on their brows, and they fairly yelled.

This Mediterranean of the west is

the widow as she arose and started

peated the landlord after the judge had
announced his intentions.

"And the widow from Chicago. Can

that evening. Il may be magnificent

The orange is the longest lived fruit
tree. 1t begins 10 bear the third year
after budding, and for 100 years it will
yield abundant crops. Orange trees
have been known to attain the ripe
age of 300. The orange requires less
care and attention than any other fruit
tree. Its early growth is rapid. In the
first two years it grows more than it
will in the next fifty. This refers of
course to its height and breadth alone
its fruit stems and consequently its
crops increase more rapidly after the
first ten years.
