A FRIEND OF Peter Dunno of Mr.. Doolev"
fame once related to him an anecd0te
OF Sarah Bernhard
he story was an account of an incident
occurring one night in the actresses dressing
room while she was being interviewed The
play was Magda so Bernhard not appear
ing IN the FIRST act, felt that she had ample
leisure. She interrupted herself at a critical
moment to complain of the heat, and summon
ing one OF her attendants, said, - must have
some fruit 20 10 the nearest shop and bring
me some peaches
Either the maid misunderstood the order or
rashly concluded that peaches under anv other
name would taste as sweet. At all events
she returned not long afterward with half a
dozen pears on a Salver.
At that moment Bernhard was declaiminp
against the dearth OF possible new PLAYS, even
IN her OWN beloved France Anyone to have
seen and heard her would have thought her
SO absorbed in her lamentations that 1t was
only mechanically and subconsciously that
she took . pear from the waiting servant
The maid turned TO leave the room. In an
evil moment she turned at the door With in
credible swiftness and astonishing accuracy of
aim the pear flew through space smashing itself
TO Juicy pulp on the waiting woman's face.
Thank God II wasn't an applet" she said
piOuslv. That was all.
Dunno was greatly pleased with this story.
Upon his return from England the following
autumn he CHANGED upon the narrator. 4" /
say, he remarked, Il told Your story, the
Bernhard one, all over London. Only, as
wanted to make sure they'd see II, / made the
maid say, Thank God 1t wasn't q cocoanut! "

an orchard of any OF these fruits with.

When currants are fruited in this way
II Is merely question of more manure
or fertilizer. Every intelligent fruit
grower will understand this at once
Under this system of intensive garden.
ing you have nice income from your
currants. while your fruit trees are de-
veloping and getting ready for fruit.
ing.
1t depends entirely upon yourself as
10 how long these bushes will bear
large. marketable fruit.
No matter how great a sacrifice 1t
may seem. you should remove two
thirds of the new wood each season.
Failing to do this, you will soon have
a lot of overgrown bushes on your
hands, and the fruit will dwindle in
size and be imperfect in many ways
On the other hand, II you prune judi
ciously, spray as often as is neces-
sary. manure well and cultivate thor
oughly. you can keep your plantation
of currants in perfect order for at
least ten years and one year with an
other, you will be well recompensed
for your investment and labor.
