A Common Deception That Only Ex
pert f 'nn Detect.
From Chambers' Journal.
As a fact, the finest cider Is not made
by the lirltlsh grower, but In Norman
dy. They have la that province brought
elder-making to perfection. The total
production every year there amounts
to hundreds of millions of gallons and
It Is made with the utmost care. To
begin, they chose the site of the orch
ard with Judgment and see that the
soil Is of the type that apples love,
nnd they are equally thoughtful In sel
ecting the varieties of the apples most
fit for cider. Indeed, for the very finest
cider their solicitude Is so great that
none but tho second or third year's
fruit of tho trees is used, und when the
process of fermentation Is reached noth
ing Is left to chance. Chemists of great
experience watch the changes In the
liquor, and the skill with which the
process Is regulated Is based on the
knowledge gathered from long practice.
The result Is that some Normandy ci
der is equal In delicacy and flavor to
fine campagne, and many cheap cham
pagnes are Blmply sophisticated cider.
This deception Is very general. The
great bulk of the elder made in Nor
mandy goes to the champagne dis
tricts and is used to make cheap cham
pagne and to form the body of other
wines, too. Port, it Booms, can be made.
and often is made, of cider, the color
being Imparted by logwood 'or red
bect Juice and the flavor by the addi
tion In very nice proportions of the
root cf tho rhatany. This, it is said,
is an Imitation so excellent that the fla
vor would deceive a rood Judge of port.

Last Ten
Days
of
Our August
Clearance
Sale.
The prices of the
balance of our Spring
and Summer stock
have been almost cut
to nothing and all
that we have left will
positively .be dis
posed of at ridicu
lously low prices.
No one should fail
to attend the last ten
days of our sale.
It is quite certain that all th cider
made In Normandy does not by a very
large proportion go on the market as
cider, and that it Is sold In the guise
of cheap wines both white and red.
Certainly, than the champagne cider
of Normandy there Is nothing more
delicate and effervescent, unless It be
the samep roduct of California when at
its best.
HULLS MADE 11V FKE.NtmiEN.
Not All of These Errors Are the Work
oT Irishmen.
From the Argonaut.
Not all the "bulls" are made by Irish
men. A French cure, preaching about
sudden death, said: "Thus It Is iwlth
us. We go to bed well, and get up
stone dead!" An old French lawyer,
writing of nn estate he had Just
bought, added: "Tht re Is a chapel up
on It In which my wife nnd I wish to
be buried, If (Jod spares our lives."
An English lecturer on chemistry tald:
"One drop of this poison placed on the
tongue of a cat Is sufficient to kill the
strongest man." And nn English lieu
tenant said that the Royal Niger com
pany wished to kill him to prevent
him going up the river until next year.
A merchant who died suddenly, left In
his bureau a letter to one of his cor
respondents which he had not sealed.
His clerk, seeing it necessary to send
the letter, wrote nt the bottom:
"Since writing the letter I have died."
rillsbury Flour mills have a capac
ity of 17,000 barrels a day.
