California Fruit Notes. —We are enjoying- 
our tine apples more than usual this Winter 
(December 30). For some weeks past the 
Pearmains have been in prime condition for 
baking and eating from the hand, and the 
Newtowns are beginning to soften a little, 
which is a sign that they are ready to eat. 
We have a few boxes of Mammoth Black 
Twig, but they have to take second place, and 
disappear in the apple sauce a few at a time. 
We are also enjoying our canned Pineapple 
quinces. They are so tender and delicious as 
compared with other varieties that 1 feel like 
recommending them to everybody. I bought 
my first tree from Mr. Burbank, and liked the 
fruit so well that 1 have planted about a 
dozen more. The frost has killed our ten- 
derest flowers, but we still have plenty of 
roses, geraniums and Chrysanthemums left.

Ask your doctor, then do as he says 
If he tells you to take Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral for your throat 
cough or bronchial trouble, then take it. If he has anything 
better, then take that. Only get well as soon as you can. 
Delays are always so dangerous in lung troubles.
