Cranberries in Packages.
From the London Globe


Evaporated cranberries will soon be
as much of a staple as evaporated apples
or evaporated peaches and by the way of
educating the consuming public to a taste
for the delicacy in this new and econom-
ical form the packages Of evaporated
cranberries will bear several standard
recipes for preparing the fruit.
This introduction of cranberries in pack
age form is expected to afford an enter
ing wedge for cranberries in the foreign
market. Heretofore the people over seas
have not taken very kindly to the Amer
lean delicacy, although efforts have been
made to create demand for Cape Cod
berries. particularly in Great Britain.
However. the growers have figured out
that much OF the responsibility for this
lack of appreciation lies in the fact that
the cranberries were not available in
packages, the form in which the British
housewife likes to purchase such eat
ables. II that premise is correct a
market can be created abroad for any
surplus of the crop not consumed in the
United States.

Be Cheerful and Avoid Cholera.
From the London Chronicle

A cheerful disposition is held by some
doctors to be the best protection against
cholera. When this disease first visited
Paris in 1882 a notice was issued advis-
ing the Inhabitants ito avoid as far as
possible all occasions of melancholy and
all painful emotions and to seek plenty
of distractions and amusements Those
with bright and happy temperament
are not likely to be stricken down.
This advice was largely followed, and
even when cholera was claiming over
thousand weekly victims the theaters and
cafes were thronged- The epidemic was
in some quarters treated as a huge joke
