The fruit huckster would be a

Orchards would be necessary only
for commercial purposes.
DWellers in apartments and flats
could solve the fresh fruit problem
by placing an indoor apple tree, an
orange tree, a lemon tree and per-

One could pick his choice fruits

An amusing incident is told which
took place in one of the occupied dis
tricts of Belgium where the German
occupier doles out potatoes to such
of the starving people as agree to work
for him. One recipient presented him
self before the German authorities and
declared himself quite ready in return
for supply Of potatoes to work for
the Germans and only for them. He
seemed quite decided and genuine in
his offer of work.
"Then you are quite willing to sign

An Irishman, having arrived in New

with a lumber merchant. Later he was
ordered to take load of lumber some
distance away. Having gone half his
journey, he came to a steep hill, and
while the horses We're struggling to
get tC the top his boss happened to
meet him. and seeing the horses in
such a difficulty, and Pat standing on
top of the load, he stopped him and
exclaimed:
do you think the horses haven't got
enough to do without hauling you up
this hill?"
Pat, fixing himself more comfortably
on top of the load, said:

Then, with crack of his whip, Pat
concluded.

BOY TOOK CHANCE OFFERED
Nature, and II was Not Mis-
placed on This Occasion.

A Judge sitting as the juvenile court
in an Indiana town was trying a boy
on a charge of stealing stamps from
his employer The evidence was pure
ly circumstanttal- The boy had
cleaned his employers desk and a
short time later he tried to sell to an
other employee the same number of
stamps that had been missed from the
desk The judge considered the evil
dence of the men who worked at the
same place and then called the police
man who had arrested the boy.
Now" said the court, "did either
of you see this boy take the stampsT
mo, your honor, but the boy has
made full confession to us"
The court looked at the boy, who
WINGED slightly at this statement.
Well" the court concluded, thai
may be. But I'm for absolute justice
in this court, and nobody saw the boy
take the stamps. The defendant is
discharged"
The next day the boy returned the
stamps to his employer.-Indianapoli'
