PINEAPPLE AS A CURATIVE.

It has long been known that the pineapple is
one of the heathiest of fruits but its real medic
nal qualities probably have never been realized In
Hawaii experiments have been made to determine
something of these properties. 1t has been found
that the fruit of the pineapple contains digestive
principle closely resembling pepsin in its action,
and to this is probably due the beneficial results
of the of the fruit in certain forms of dyspep-
sia. On the casein of milk pineapple juice acts
digestive in almost the same manner as rem
net and the action is also we'll illustrated by pac-
ing thin piece of uncooked beef between two
slices of fresh pineapple. where in the of a
few hours its character is completely changed.
In diphtheritic sore throat and Group pineapple
juice has come to be very largely relied upon in
countries where the fruit is common. The false
membranes which cause the closing of the throat
seem to be dissolved by the fruit acids and relief

RETREAT? NEvER!
From Tit-iBts.

From l1t-lBlS.
 In an Irish garrison town @ theatrical company was giving performances, and some soldiers from the local barracks were engaged to act as supers Their duties included the waging of a fierce fight in which, after a stirring struggle, one army was defeated on a given sig nal from the prompter. For few nights all went well, but on Friday evening a special performance Of the piece was to be given under the patronage of the col onel and other officers of the garrison. The two armies met as usual at the end of the second act, when they fought and fought and kept fighting, regardless of the agonized glare in the eye of their (actor) general, who hoarsely ordered the proper army to Retreat, confound you.' But the fight still went on, and soon the mortified manager saw the wrong army being driven slowly off the stage, still fighting desperately. Down came the cur tain, amid roars of laughter, and the fum- ing manager hastened to ask the delin- quents why they had failed to retreat on hearing the signal.
 'Retraite,"I roared burley fusilier, whose visage had been badly battered, "and is it retraite y'd have us. wid the colonel and all the officers in the boxes?"
