Signify come. He seated himself calm
ly upon the chair and began to eat
that which had been given him OF
td1e. that which had been brought to
Caesar as thing due to Caesar. He
ate until at last, wearied with his la
bors, he fell asleep.
Note now our humble moral in this
short and simple detail OF our hero's
early years. He was at this moment
more nearly full of bananas than any
other human being in all the village at
that time. Yet he had attained that
success at no price save that of the
exercise Of the resources OF his mind
That is genius. Let us not smile at
young Mr.. Rawn.
His mother. stealing home by the
back way with yet other bananas con-
cealed in her apron, presently came
upon him and discovered that, after
all, her sOlicitude had not been need
full. Her son slept, his lower lip pro-
truding, his features grave. his legs
somewhat sprawled apart, his mid
body somewhat distended, his head
sunken forward, his hands dropping
at his side. In one hand. clutched so
tightly as to have become a somewhat
worthless pulp, his mother discovered
the bulk of several bananas; in short.
the full quota which had been assigned
to two OF his fellow beings. 1t was
genius!
His mother looked upon him as he
slept sprawled in his repletion and
made no attempt to remove the I'M
eaten fruit from his hands; indeed
made no query as to where he had OBJ
tanned 1t. She did not disturb his
slumbers. How like his father he

OF certain lemons, certain beefsteaks,
certain wedding fees, certain gone and
wasted years. She did not say: How
dear ne is. how sweet, hor manly. how
brave, how decent, how chivalrous!"
No. with a slight tightening of the lips
as she turned pack to find her belated
sewing. she spoke. as though to her
self. and with no peculiar glorying in
her voice, How like he is to his IA

garments of the son and heir. even
building for him a cap, with ear-lap-
pets, for winter use. Her own gar.

most casual eye to have been the
product of her own hands.
A certain interest attaches to a lit.

some such village. would have been
noted or could have been possible. The
leading local merchant, in a burst of
enterprise, had imported a couple of
clusters of bananas from New Orleans.

RAISING CELERY FOR WINTER
Experienced Growers Know That Good
Quality Cannot Be Grown With
out Much Hard Work.
tBy R, G. wEATHERsToNE.)

FL
Last year we had the finest celery
ever seen in this part of the country
and here is how it was grown:
The plants were grown in very rich
soil and thinned so that none were
small and spindling No weeds were
allowed to grow among the plants.
After the plants were four or five
Inches high the tops were shorn off
so as to cause the planta to grow
stalky.
During the dry weather we gave
the plants drink every evening, soak
ing the ground well each time.
The tips of the leaves were shorn
off again about two weeks after the
first shearing
In doing this there is always danger
of injuring the plants unless one is
very careful. If too many of the
leaves are cut off the plants will be
stunted and thereby rendered worth
less.
None of the young or inner leaves
should be pruned and only the upper
portion of the outer ones.
All this may seem to be great
deal of unnecessary work, but those
who have grown celery know that it
is time wasted to set out small, sickly
plants. Experienced growers also
know that good celery cannot be
grown without more or less hard
work.
We grow ours for home use only
and always as a second crop Where
early potatoes have been grown.
