Real Forbidden Fruit,

In some countries there grows a
kind OF fruit belonging to the shad-
dock family and which Is commonly
called forbidden fruit" II is similar
10 grape fruit, but is larger and the in.
side is somewhat coarser than the de-
licious acid delicacy Of which we are
so fond. The name forbidden fruit
vas given on account of three dark
brown stains, like finger marks, which
invariably show on this variety of the
shaddock. The stains are close to-
gether on one side and are believed to
be the marks of Ewes fingers left as
a brand on the apple whose eating
caused so much trouble In the world.
Forbidden fruit is much liked by peo-
pie who are able to get 1t fresh, but
so far 1t has not been shipped abroad
as extensively as its cousin, the grape
fruit and shaddock.

application papers were returned with
formal note to the effect that at

CONSUMPTION or BEER
According to Recent Statistics Amer.
leans Make II Their National
Drink-Great Increase in
Its Use.

A recent dispatch from Washington
says: The indications in the Internal
Revenue Office are that when all the
reports from the revenue collectors
are in. the close of the fiscal year
which ended June 80, 1907, will again
witness a large increase in the con.
sumption of beer. The production dur
ing the fiscal year 1995-1906 was 54,-
724 ,553 barrels, an iporease over the
preceding year Of 79T.476 barrels
The increase al the close of this year
will. probably, not remain behind thai.
The growth of beer production. and
as the import of foreign beer exceeds
our export, also the consumption of 1t
in the United States is truly remark
able. In 1862, the first year in which
a record vase kept the production was
only 2,006.625 barrels. With the ex
ception OF the periods 1S74-1S77 and
lS9i-1S96, periods of general business
depression. the production Of beer in.
creased constantly until it now has
reached the enormous quantity of
nearly sixty million barrels annually.
That this remarkable increase is not
1ue to the growth of population. but
10 the growth of the popularity of the
beverage. Is proved by the increase of
he percapita consumption. In 1868 1t
was only gallons; Il is now II gal |
