Tho Pineapple In England.


 Pineapples, which Londoners can now buy at the cheapest rate within Nving memor-, first reached England in th> latter part of the seventeenth century. The fruit was thus novelty to Sir Christopher Wren's generation; but he soon recognized it's value as an architectural ornament. and copper pineapples about five feet high figure prominently op :he towers of St Paups. So highly did Wren esteem the fine proportions and enriched sur. face of this fruit that his original dc sign for St. Paul's shows an enormous pineapple in the place of the dome. Happily his naturer thoughts saved as from that appalling spectacle. Stnce Wren tho pineapple has been as much at home in our architecture as on our dinner tables. It has descended even to cast iron, and is frequently found in old-fashioned streets. Queen Victoria treasured seal given by her husband on which pineapple was engraved. together with the motto.
