at the sight of a number of people
gathered near the entrance. At first
she had merely glanced at them; then
started, as, in the somewhat dim

Beppo appeared from the cloister,
walked toward the officer, and, in a
low illhurored tone, said something

it; made a gesture to the soldiers
who drew back, and spoke himself to
the prisoner. The latter did not reply

forward mechanically, through the
doorway.

'alone'?" asked the commandant.
"As sure as 1 have ears" answered
Beppo.

Beppo shrugged his shoulders "She

pigs are like gazelles. II have" he
says, never seen shaddock here in

as six grape fruits. You would have
to get more than Is cents for it; be-
cause one shaddock would serve q
party Of six any time. The Juice
tastes very different from the grape
fruit" He also declares that the grape
fruit should not have any bitter taste
that this taste is impaired to it by
falling on the ground, the spray from
the rind being sent through the pulp
by the fall. IT." he says, Americans
could get the fruit Of the grape fruit
as 1t is picked they would never again
eat the fruit that has been knocked

the same thing.-New York Mail.
