The Family Grecer Throws More Light Upon Them. “I will give you a double dose today’’;said the genial F.G. as the newsyatherer planted himself on an . unopened pickle keg and asked wh:t. Snews was, ‘Now you haye of on herd of allspice, but like a good i-any otf'@r folks it will be news to you to find out what itis. Itis th» immature berry. called in the book: Eugenia pimenta, which plant is native to the xs West Indies. It is caWtod pitnenta’ by . importers, but is better known among consuinérs*as° allspice. The name probably originated in the fact that this spice posessesa flavor resembling that of a combination of cinnamon, cloves, nutmegs and other spices. . The trees growin South America and the West Indies, being cultivated extensively in Jamaica, chiefly on account of the value of their fruit. They are planted in rows, and grow. to a height of thirty feet. The leaves are oval in-form, and coyer the branches with td¥triant evergreen foliage that givesthe trees a beatiful and imposing appearance. The crop ig yery uncertain, as thé trees produce an abundance of fruit‘only once in five years. On these occasioné, however, the yield is quite large” Great care is required in gathering and drying the berries. They niust be picked when they at‘tain full growth, and before they commence to ripen. If allowed to get fully ripe, they lose that domestic taste for which they are valued; and when.dried on the trees, they become black an! tasteless. The berries are dried by spreading them on terraces,’ and allowing them to remain exposed tothe sun for several days, during which time they gradually change from a.green to a reddish brown color. The berries, when. properly prepared, are light, dry and éasily ground. Their size is'a little larger than that of grains of pepper. They have a warm, pungent, aromatic and slightly astringent taste. Allspice is frequently adulterated by adding roasted rye and cayenne pepper. ‘And now..for the second installTHE COMING HUMORIST. For the Sake of Mankind He Should Be Headed Of at Once. : “See here, Mrs. Juniper,” said Mr. Juniper the other day, ‘do you know what I'm going to do?”’ “Why, no; of course not. How should I?” “Well, if. you'd been as wide awake as some people you'd have suggested \it yourselflong ago. I'm goingtoturn ' humorist.” *“Purn what?”’ = <= “Oh, you needn't act as if you think T couldn't and try to throw cold water on the scheme. I know what I'm about. Ive read lots of times of late that there was the greatest demand for humorous matter by papers and magazines of every sort, and that gentine humor sold like hotyskes. Folks like to laugh May bs you didn't know I was a born humorist, eh?’’ _ “No, I didn’t know it,".said Mrs. Juniper, briefly. : “Well, it’s simply because you've neglected, your. privilege,” said Juniper. “But somé folks don’t know humor when they hear and see it. It ain't every body that’s born with the gift. When I was a young fellow folks used ‘to just roar over all I said ‘and did.” “JT don’tdoubtit,’’ said Mra: Juniper, tersely. ‘Well, they did, and-it was simply because I said and did so many keen and funny things. Once I pinned a rag to our preacher's coat-tail while he was walking up the aisle to the pulpit. 1 thought I'd die laughing.” ‘. . don’t see_any thing very smart about that,’’ said Mrs. Juniper. ~ “Oh, of course not; you ain't got the faintest perception of wit. © That's why. I used to mew like a catin church and'bark like a dog at other public meetings, and folks used to fairly roar over it. I was just that fullof humor. And at pa.ties I'd keep them all screaming by suddenly standing on my head in corners, or popping beans at folks and tripping fellows up. Once I pulled a chair out from under a fat old lady who was about to sit down, and she came kerflump on the floor. Well, sir, if every body didn't yell! I was full of cute, little humorous things like that.” “I'm giad you're not full of them now.”’ “Oh, you are, eh? Well, it won't take me long to think up a lot of old tricks and jokes. Now, how’s this for a joke: ‘Ha, Smith,’ said Jones, ‘where you bound for so fast?’ ‘Don’t stop me, man,’ cried Smith ‘My mother-in-law comes in at eleven, and I'm off on the ten o'clock train.’ Ha! ha! And you didn’t know I was a humorist? Little things like that will take. They'll sell like hot cakes at from three to four dollars each, and I ean think them up by the dozen. Now, here's a conundrum that I'll bet will go the rounds of every paper in Amerment, which will be about oatmeal. . ica after I’ve sold it for ‘ten dollars: The production ofthis popnlar ar. tieley of diet. differs materially from : grinding flour from wheat. A larger amount of time and labor and more complicated machinery are required, . for the reason that the oat kernel is more difficult of separation from its rer tire vars are —creaiietr, trey are dried by heating. This” operation, when done propérly, demands considerable skill, and necessitates the use of special machinery. The oats are next cooled, when they are ready for the hulling process. . This must be managed with*care, since it is important toavoid breaking the kernel. In formér times the helling was done by steel cutting, but of late this m>thod has been almost entirely superseded “by” thé’ rolling process. The rolled meal can be cooked very mnch qnicker than that produced in the old fastoned way. Motel Arrivals. Natronat Excuance, October 25— W._R, Shideler, Albert Lewold, John ‘B, Brentward, H.

Nabobs of Ancient Times. Creesus possessed in landed property a fortune equal to $8,500,000, besides a large.sum of money, slaves and furniture, which amounted to an equal sum; he uged to say, that a citizen who had nota fortune sufficient to sup. port an army or a legion, did not deserye thetitieofarich man. Thephifosopher Seneca had a fortune Of $18,000.000. Lentulus, the soothsayer, had $18,000,000. Tibe-ius, at his death, left $118,125,000, which Caligula spent in less than twelve months. Cesar, before he entered upon. any. office. owned $15,000,000, and he purchased 909. He gave Seryilla,*the mother of Brutus, a pearl of the value of £40,00. Appicus expended in debauchery $1,500,000; and finding, on examinaion of the state of his affairs, that he had no more than $200,000 left, he poisoned himself, because he considered that sum insufficient for his maintenance. . One single dish cost Esopus $400,000. Caligula spent for one supper $400,000, and Heliogabulus $100,000. The usual cost of a repast for Lucullus was $100,000. * The fish from his ponds were sold for $175,000. Scarus’ county-house was destroyed by fire, and his loss was estimated at $4, 250,000.—N. Y. Ledger. HIT BY A COINCIDENCE. A Man with a Wooden Leg “Meets the Head of a Sympathetic Fumily. The owner of a place on Second avenue stood in histbarn door on the alley the other day When a man with a wooden leg and a crutch,came along and passed the time o’ day and finally said: : “Say, I want you todo me a favor, I want to leave my leg with you fora few minutes.”” .“Why?” “I want to go around on Second ave. nue and work a house for half a doar in money. I've got a pointer that the folks are very sympathetic If I go with one leg 1’m sure of it.” “Very well; just leave’your leg hera and I'll take care of it.” The wooden substitute was unstrapped and handed over, and the eripple used the crutch to help himself down theatley. Five minutes later he rang the door-bell of a house around the avenue, to have it opened by the man he had seen at the barn. “W—wha—what!” he gasped in astonishment. i “Very sympathetic family lives here!” quietly repliedthe other. “You seem to have met with a sad loss, and I’m anxious to help you. Here is a wooden leg which may fit you."’ “The leg was handed over, the man sat. down on the steps and strapped it on, and as he got up and stumped through the gate. he said to himself: ‘Tve heard of coincidences ever since I was knee-high to a hop-toad, but this is the first one that ever hit me with both feet at once!’’—Detroit Free Press. -~» 4 he friendship of Curio for $2. 500,000, . and that of Lucius Paulus fo: $1,500,-.

Even -such deep-seated and stubborn complaints as Rhenmatisni, Rheumatic Gout, and the like, are thoroughly eradicated by the use of this wonderful alterative. Mrs. R. Irving Dodge, 110 West 125th street, New York, certifies :~ “ About two years ago, after suffering for nearly two years from rheumatic et being able to walk only wiih great iscomfort, and having tried various remedies, including mineral . waters, without relief, I saw. by an advertise~ ment in a Chicago paper that a man Had been relieved of this distressing complaint, after long suffering, by taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I then decided to make a trial of this medicine, and_took it regularly for eight months. I am pleased to say that it effected a complete cure, and that I have since had no return of the disease.”’ Mrs. L. A. Stark, Nashua, N. H., writes: ‘‘One year-ago I was taken ill with rheumatism, being confined to my house six months. I came out of the sickness very much debilitated, with no appetite, and my system: disordered in every way. I commenced to use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla and began to improve at ence, gaining in strength and soon recovering my usual health.
