Value of Slewed Frnlt. Stewed fruit of any description is far more beneficial than the majority of fresh ones, and the despised prunes will agree with the woman who has dyspepsia, as well as the one with a strong, healthy stomach. They may be eaten, too, as a rule, either before a manioc, and that alone. It Is a plant particularly adapted to wet. marshy soil, says the author of "In Remotest Harotselund." It takes two years to arrive at maturity, and while growing requires very little attention. The root wheu full-grown Is about the size, and has very much the ap pearance of a German sausage, al though at times it grows much larger. One shrub has several roots, and the extraction of two or three in no way impairs the growth of the remainder. When newly dug It tastes like a cheHtnut, and the digestion of the pro verbial ostrich can alone assimilate It raw; but when soaked In water for a few days until partly decomposed, dried on the roofs of the huts and Btamped, If forms a delightfully white soft meal, far whiter and purer than the best flour. Then it is beaten Into a thick paste and eaten with a little results for the complexion and health. Stewed apples, pears or any of the smaller fruits are also a benefit, if not too sweet. Taking figs la such quanti ties, especially before retiring, does not agree with the average person, as the uablt is supposed to, for the concen trated sweetness is really bad, if the stomach Is sour or there Is a surplus or acm in the blood. Then, too, the tiny seeds in them are difficult for anv hut strong stomachs to really digest and assimilate.

There was a peculiar sound from the drection of the woods as the member of the Birdlovers' Society sat In the window of her friend's country home one summer afternoon. S '6 quickly took her small "Bird Ouioe" from her ever-present bag, and rapidly turned the leaves, At last she paused with a smile of satisfaction, and listened, with her finger between two leaves of the little book, till the sound came again. When It was repeated an expression of doubt flitted across her features, but still she was hopeful. "You probably know many of the bird notes, living so near the woods and In such a quiet spot," she said to her friend. "Can you tell me what bird that Is?" "That," said her friend, briefly, "Is our goat We shall have to move him farther off." It Quiets the Cough Recompense. "They say that suburban life is not io bad." "No; I suppose not.
