box on the cars. The business of
the Florida Fruit Exchange and'
the Orange Growers’ Union, the
two organizations which handle
most of the crop, has been largely
increased this season. An effort
was made to establish a “home
auction market” in Jacksonville,
but comparatively a small portion
of the crop was disposed of by this
agency. New York dealers com
plain that the Florida growers de
mand too high prices for their
fruit, but such a statement is ri
diculous in view of the fact that
the entire crop is sold readily and
the demand regulates the price. It
is believed that there are not more
than 150,000 boxes*of oranges re
maining in .Florida and these will
soon be disposed of. New groves
are being planted every' year and
the confidence of the growers in
the orange business properly con-
ducted was never so strong as it is
now.

Third street depot, “have you any
faith left in human nature?”
“Very little sir,7 was the prompt
reply.
“You look on most people as
dead-beats and sharpers?”
“I do.”
“Beat you if they can?”
“They will. They’d steal my
teeth if weren’t solid in the jaw.”
“You have lent.some money once
or twice, I presume?” \
“I have, sir.”
. “And never got it back?”
“Never.”
“Well, I’ve got to.tackle you just
the same,” continued the man
“D’ye see that;womamwith the red

‘Yes.”
“She’s my bride; married last
week; came in on a bridal tour.
We toured too long for the size of
my wallet, and now I lack just 4
cents of ’enough To buy'ouf tickets

“Only 4 cents?”
“That’s all. If any feller ,in
Michigan can plan a bridal tour
closer than that I’d like to meet
him.”
“So would I. Here’s a quarter,
sir, and that will give you 21 cents
for peanuts and apples on the train.

the ticket office. Go home and be
good and happy.”—Detroit Free

Brown gave up his seat to a
pretty young lady. She accepted
it without so much as “Thank

the car whom she knew, and just
before leaving she called him to

The man who had orignally occu
