Probably everybody has wondered at limes what kind of HtuiT the "milk" of the ooeonuut Is. One Inducement generally held out by the dealer to the prospective purchaser Ih that the nuts are "oil milky." Recent analyse, how ever, hnve dissipated the delusion tlmt the lluld ba4 anything In common with reul milk. It contains only I percent of solids, consisting ehletly of sugars, 'JS per cent, the balance being inmlc up of mineral matter ami tartaric acid. More than half of the sugar present I. maniiltol, the sweet principle of man an, which I sometimes found also In wine ns n product of normiil grape supir. The question has been dis cussed us to whether It would be prof itable to extract the coeoanut water for the sake of Its cane sugar, but ns this amounts to only one-tenth per cent the process would not be com mercially successful In spite of the water being a waste product. Even If the wuter contained r, per cent of ugnr, as some specimen nppenr to have shown, the recovery of this nmoiint would be iinprotltnble. The Juleo of the sugar cane yields nearly 'JO per cent of sugar. New York World. A Flno Talker. "I like the looks of till- pnrrot," said the lady who had stepped Into the bird store.

When Edward III, of England and his queen made triumphal entry Into Ca lais In iai7 "tauilxnirs" were among the Instruments which were played In their honor.
