the first drives the two latter, which
force soupy water through a pipe
connected with 87 different outlets,
each one of which emits thousands
and thousands of bubbles, which in.

kaleidoscopic cascade round the base.
In the daytime it is a marvelous
sight, hut at night, when innumer

ing an expression from the “Arabian
Nights," one might most aptly speak
of it ns the “fountain of a thousand
jewels," so sparkling, so radiant is
the effect.—Gentlewoman.

amazed to see the people who come
to me to ask how it is done or to getj
me to write them. And,” she admit
ted, “if the truth must be told, I
don’t know so awfully much about it
myself.”
HAS FINE APRICOT CROP.
With trees bending under thn
burden of the heaviest crop in
years—perhaps the greatest in the
history of the state—the harvest of
apricots in California is at itq
height. *
It is estimated that the green crop
will total 120,000 tons and that the
return to growers will be $1,250,000.
The pie und sauce possibilities are
appalling. Because of rapidity of
ripening possibly ten per cent, of the
crop will not be gathered. Th# fruit)
is exceptionally luscious. 1
