HONEST PACK.

An honest pack is the only one
that pays. The time has passed when
a grower can put his best truck on
top, with poor trash on the bottom,
and get away with it. The buyers
laugh at such fool tricks. Until a
grower or packer has established
himself so that buyers know they
can depend upon his brand, all goods
are inspected on arrival. Don't be an
ostrich. Too often the grower or the
packing house manager thinks he is
fooling the buyer, when he is only
playing a joke on himself or his grow
ers. Oftentimes association managers
will call up Mr.. Burton of the Florida
citrus Exchange, explain TO him what
a fine car of fruit he has. How much
can Mr.. Burton get for it? Gets offer
at good price Car received and
nothing like what represented. Turn.
ed down. Manager fooled Mr.. Burton
because Mr. Burton does not see the
car. The buyer does see IT, You
can't fool him. Do not make a Jack
Of yourself.

CELERY CONDITIONS.

The demand for celery Is very
heavy. Assistant Sales Manager Deck
man of the Florida Citrus Exchange
says: There is a great call for cell
cry from all over the country. We
are even having inquiries from Tex
as, itself a celery-raising state. From
the big cities of the middle west, the
call is constant and increasing.
The Eastern seaboard cities can
not get enough for present wants.
There appears to be no hold over
stock in storage anywhere in the
country. The California crop was
light, and has been badly damaged
by frost. In fact, Florida seems to
be 1T in the celery deal as we'll as
in oranges.
I'VE are having no trouble at all in
getting all orders we can fill for fancy
celery, 6 dozen per crate and larger,
at $3.50 for Manatee crates and 1926
for the smaller size Choice celery of
smaller size, when rightly packed,
sells for s2.75 and SO. The quality of
the Florida celery this year is the
best ever Just now the shipments
are light, owing to the cold weather,
which interferes with the bleaching
Buyers are here in quantity. The
efforts of the Exchange in standing
for high prices for the growers has
brought the buyers into line, and
they are now offering prices that are
in line with Exchange prices. 1t is
the same with potatoes. We are not
handling many potatoes, but did agree
to handle a car load for a Wauchula
grower. We had sold the car for
him at $3.50 a barrel f. o. b., when
buyer, who had been offering $3.50
a barrel, boosted his price to S. cash,
and got the goods, we being out the
expense of our wires and having to
square ourselves with the jobber who
agreed to buy the potatoes. We were
thrown down in spite of the fact that
if we had not been mix up in the
deal the cash man would have gotten
the goods at S4.50."
This is one incident that shows
why the Exchange is not anxious to
handle products other than citrus
fruits for any other organized asso
Citations. So many are willing to use
the Exchange ladder to get to the top
of the wall with, only to kick it aside
with contempt when they have at
tanned the desired position. "Seto

CHAPTER VII.
The Masked Minister.


Being an angel must have this great
advantage at least, that one may sit IN
the grandstand overlooking the earth
and enjoy the ludicrous blunder of
that great blind mans buff we call
life.
This night, if any angels were
watching Chicago, the Mallory mix-up
must have given them a good laugh,
or a good cry-according to their ma
lures
Here were Mallory and Marjorie.
still merely engaged, bitterly regret
ting their inability to get married and
to continue their journey together.
There in the car were the giggling
conspirators preparing a bridal mock
cry for their sweet confusion.
Then the angels might have nudged
one another and said:
ooh, it's all right now. There goes
the minister hurrying to their very
car. Mallory has the license in his
pocket, and here comes the parson.
Hooray!"
And then the angelic cheer must
have died out as the one great hurrah
Of crowded background is quenched
in air when the home teams vitality
needed home run swerves outside the
line and drops useless as a stupid foul
ball.
In a shabby old hack, were two of
the happiest runaways that ever
sought train. They were not miser-
able like the young couple in the taxi
cab. They were white-haired both.
They had been married for thirty
years. Yet this was their real honey
moon, their real elopement.
The little woman in the timid gray
bonnet clapped her hands and Uttered
like a schoolgirl.
ooh, Walter, l can't believe we're
really going TO leave Ypsilanti for a
while. Oh, but you've earned it after
thirty years of being preacher"
Hush. Don't let me hear you say
the awful word" said the little old
| man in the little black hat and the
close-titting black bib. I'm so tired
of it, Sally, l don't want anybody on
the train to know it,
They can't help guessing it, with
| your collar buttoned behind"
And then the amazing minister act
ually dared to say, Here's where l
change it around" What's more, he
actually did it. Actually took off his
| collar and buttoned it to the front.
The old carriage seemed almost to
! rock with the earthquake of the deed.
why, Walter Temple!" his wife ex-
claimed. What would they say in
| Ypsilanti?"
They'll never know" he answered,
| defiantly.
But your bib?" she said.
| I've thought Of that, too" he cried,
as he whipped it off and stuffed 1t into
a handbag. Look, what I've bought"
And he dangled before her startled
eyes a long affair which the sudden
| light from a passing lamp-post re-
vealed to be nothing less than a far
ing red tie.
The old lady touched it to make
sure she was not dreaming it. Then,
emitting further parley with fate, she
snatched 1t away, put 1t round his
neck, and, since her arms were en-
bracing him, kissed him twice before
she knotted the ribbon into a flaming
bow. She sat back and regarded the
