CuSTARD. APPLE GROWS
WILD IN MEXICAN STATES
Under Cultivation the Fruit Inn
proves and Yields Well

The chirimoya, Anona humDolddana,
variety of the custard apple. may be
found growing wild in a widely ex-
tended section of the gulf slope of
Mexico This fruit in an uneultiyated
state is small and much inferior to
that grown under favorable conditions.
In all the towns and villages in the
state of Vera Cruz, and at an altitude
of from $500 TO 1900 feet il IS grown
In small orchards. and actains quite a
large size Specimens from 10 5
inches IN diameter are not. uncommon.
the flavor of which is most delicious
when we'll ripened. In the state of
Vera Cruz the flesh is of a soft Gus
tard consistency with a pronounced
Sariilla favor. Cut when matured but
not yet ripe. it will stand shipment for
long distances very Well.
With scientific cultivation there
seems to be no limit TO the decree OF
perfection to which this fruit may
be brought; even with the careless
methods now pursued the fruit is of
good size and readily brings from 3
to American cents, and as much as
cents each. The tree grows to a
height of about 20 feet under favor
able conditions, and will bear as many
as 100 fruits. Proper cultivation will
increase both the size of the tree and
the size and quality of fruits to the
tree. Its cultivation offers an inter
esting and profitable study to the Gull
tivator in Mexico

HUMOROUS PHRASES IN
INSURANCE APPLICATIONS
British Medical Journal Gives
Verbatim Extracts

The way in which application forms
for insurance are filed up are
often more amusing than en1ightening.
AS illustrations the British Medical
Journal gives the following: Mother
died in infancy. An uncle died of cam
Ger on his mothers side. Father went
to bed feeling well. and the next MORN
ing woke up dead Grandfather died
suddenly at the age of 103. Up to this
time he bid fair to reach a ripe old age.
Applicant does not know anything
about maternal, posterity, except that
they died at an advanced age APP
plicant does not know cause of mothers
death, but states that she fully re-
covered from her last illness. Appli-
cant has never been fatally sick.
Father died suddenly; nothing serious.
Applicants brother, who was an in
FAINT, died when he was a mere child.
Grandfather died from gunshot wound
caused by an arrow shot by an Indian.
Applicants fraternal parents died when
he was child. Mothers last illness
was caused from chronic rheumatism
but she was cured before death.

SEA SERPENT AND SHIP
RACE WHILE MEN QUAKE
Monster Gives Sailors Greatest
Scare of Their Lives

Entered in the permanent log of the
British steamship Mereddio. Captain
Clark, is a record of sea monster
sighted while the ship was on a pas
sage between Penarth and Santos.
Chief officer Neil S. Murray was in
charge of the bridge at the time and a
Greek quartermaster was at the wheel
The quartermaster. who first sighted
the monster. was almost petrified with
fear and was at the point of permitting
the big freighter to take her own
course.
1T was like this" explained the chief
officer when the Incredible locked at
East Boston yesterday. THE ship was
500 miles from Santos. l saw the
Greek acting strangely and followed
the direction he was looking.
My hair nearly stood on end at the
sight. Swimming parallel to the ship
was a monster lizard 1t was big as
a whale The ocean fairly seethed as
it propelled itself with enormous drag
on's claws. A head as big as a pilot
house and one coil of the beasts neck
were above water.
For a distance of nearly 800 feet
the sea heaye6 and was dashed into
foam 1 think the lizard was fully the
Mereddio's length, and feared for the
safety of the steamship as the crea-
ture, mailed in huge, bony scales. of
dark green color. swerved as il to
come alongside. 1t had a sawlike ridge
on its back. and its girth was fully
as great as that of a whale.
After the serpent had raced the
ship several minutes it bumped its
back and sounded. The swash from its
commotion shook the ship and sent
spray over the starboard rail.
L have followed the sea many years
and, mind you, I am not given to
faneies. That creature so impressed
me that 1 entered the. incident in the
scrap log. and later made a prema-
nent record of it"
The Mereddio's crew substantiates
Officer Murray while the Greek quar-
termaster admits he did not recover
from the shock for several days.-Bos-
ton Herald.

SNAKE SKINS IN DEMAND
TO MAKE WOMEN'S BELTS
New Tanning Process Prepares
Hide of Reptiles

According to the Indian Trade Jour
nal of Calcutta an important branch of
the chrome tanning department in
Madras in the last three or four years
has been the curing of skins both of
wild animals and of snakes.
The chrome tanning process is we'll
suited for the preservation of skins
with the hair on, but it lends itself
equally well for snake skins. Large
numbers of such skins, which are in
large demand for women's belts, have
been tanned, the principal skins being
those of the python, the cobra and the
Russell viper.
The quality of snake skins varies
considerably, and it depends upon the
time which has elapsed since the rep
tiles last cast their skins.

FRENCH ARMY OFFICERS
WILL DEMAND MORE PAY
Salaries Fixed in 1870 Do Not
Keep Step With Progress

The lot of the. French army officer is
not all that Is to be desired. 1t seems
that his pay was fixed after the war
with Germany in 1870, and there has
been no increase since that period. In
almost every other occupation the pay
or stipend has been augmented to meet
the extra cost of necessaries but the
officer has been forgotten. so the cues
ton is coming to the front, and, as a
Paris contemporary observes, when the
chambers vote so many millions for less
urgent requirements some considera-
ton should be given to those from
whom the state expects absolute devo-
ton in time of peace and his life in time
of war.-London Globe.

All the Italian Riviera is saturated
with Germanism- Capri practically be-
longs to the Krupps and other Ger
mans. Wherever you go throughout
Italy, says the Bystander, the language
apart from italian which you hear
mostly is. German, and nearly every
commodity of life is imported from the
fatherland. The king deplores this in
vasion and would like to see the Eng
lish display little more energy and
try to regain the Italian market.
