f In a West VlrRinln Trxvoni'
I spent a few days in the moil
of West Yirginm , where I did mosl
of my traveling on foot. I was ou
iho road bright and early ono day ,
having started without my breakfast
with tlio expectation of a good meal
at a town four or five miles nhcad.
* Imust have nlisnod my way , for nftor
ajtwo hours jaunt I had not reached
imy destination. I came to ft cross
roads , and n tavern. The whole scene
I jras like what wo imagine the scene
vrna where the true knight found the
Sleeping Beauty in the wood. There
was no brcero ; there was no sound of
any sort. The tavern roof was thick
with green mosij the tavern donr and
windows were closed , stnmed , cracked
and , like every other part of tlio
Imildinff , 80 l ° ft "l U8 ° i nni so I ° n8
without paint that they seemed to
have bceli built ol cork rather than
of wood , Tlio well house had rotted
nnd fallen into n mound of rotting
t timber encircling the well ; the sheus
had become a tatiglo of 'old disordered
beams between' which a few young
trees and n jungle of bushci had
forced their why. The old signpost
stood oructi but the sign itself was
used to cover the collar tlodr.
I must have had u u ihl craving for
food and drink , or n Bupornatmal ill-
Blind to lead md to pound on that
forbidding door , butluid so. And
moreover I kept on pounding and
pounding against all reason and all
hope. Presently a groaning , wheez
ing noisu overhead warned me that a
rusted hiii' o was turning. I saw that
I some ohe * within , was straining i sttib-

' *
open. .
"What do you want ? " the man who
had opened the window growled down
, at mo.
Lu' "Want something to bat , " said I.
! 'Wall'i , the man , an , old , white-
haired , yellow-skinned fellow in a
woolen shirt , replied , "yor can't got
iiothin' here , an' you had better clar
out. "
"I'd bo much obliged for anything , "
said I , "a bit of bread or "
"Now , thar ain't no use yor stan'-

IfoopcK answered , ' ' "clar out aiid lot

I was in earnest , and infernally
hungry. Ho was closing the shutter.
I threw all the fooling I could master
jnto my voice.
"Hold on , " naid I. "I want to get
in. I want to speak to you. I'll give
f you a dollar if you'll como dbwn and
Jut mo in.1
The shutter banged , anil I stood
there ignorant of the ollbet of what T
had said. I moved away to got a full
view of the tavern. Soon there wan a
lumbering noise indoors that told mo
I had disturbed the old mountaineer ,
* if nothing more. In an instant tlio
lower half'of ' thtf old-fashioned double
* door swung inward , and the tavern-
keeper's voice grullly bade mo to
"Como in. " I didn't half like that. I
bent double , and saw nothing but ab-
Koluto darkness ahead.
1 ' 'Open the door , " said I , when I
stood up inside the room.
"Ijb , I won't said ho , as ho moved
heavily away into the thickness of the
darkness. While ho walked away from
mo I hastily told him of my hunger
and of my loss of way. Ho snapped
out a few wonts to the effect that I
couldn't got anything to oat , and I'd
bettor "gii'long. ' " I got accustomed
to the darkness. I saw the faint outlines -
lines of a table a stool , and a conn-

' 'Hain't that good enough for yor ? "
"Yes ; but I'd spill half of it , if I

ThoquaiiHty of irbpicnl fruit con-
.mined in this city it constrmtly in-
creasing. Wo arc beginning to receive
in market sonio of tlio choice varieties
of oranges nnd bananas , tvhilo innti *
goes , Bapodlllas , star applet , cliirhnoy *
as or custard apples , sournopB , mam-
moos , pomegranates , broad frtlil , and
occasionally guavas and fresh cocoanuts -
nuts arc included in the lists of the
fruit ( stalls ,
Mangoes from Jamaica nro among
the most delicious of these laro fruits.
They nro pcar-nbaped , with a thick
golden , rod-chocked rindtindnndranRo
colored pulp. A largo pit like n peach-
stone take up Imlf the fruit , and con
tains a bitter kernel. The specimens
of this fruit brqiight to market nro
said uy % those who' 'liavo oaten it in
South America and Jamaica to bo ox-
collont. It is ripe , as tlioso that ripen
after they ro picked arc dovolct of
llafdrhnd worthless. I t'fa consequently -
ly n purislmblo cargo , and fully 20 per
cent , of 'thoso brought to this market
spoil bofolo they reach the country.
The Bwoot mango is the species usual
ly soon hero. There is a slightly a6id
kind sometimes Bold , which is very
pleasant to the tasto. In selecting
mangoes , cliooso these that are haul
and firm ; the thick , loaUiory rind re
tains its Bhapo long after the fniit is
soft , and is considered spoiled. Fresh
mangoosaro worth from60 cents to 91
a dozen.
The Bwcet mangoes nut up at Bom
bay are n famous Kast India chutney ,
and n popular accompaniment of cur
ries in England. Though seldom used
, in this country , they should not bo
confounded with pickled muskmelons ,
which nro called mangoes by Now
England housekeepers.
The sapodilln is a brown fruit , the
size and shape of n largo plum. It is
aorycd for desert , and is cxtrumoly
juicy. The variety brought hero from
Jamaica is the nispero of South Aid-
urica. It has auveral stones like date
stones , nnd its taste is of a cloying
Bwoetnuas. Ripe sanodillas arc of-
iored inour markets in fair condition
at 40 to 50 contu a dozen. Canned
sapodillaa from Nassau are 30 conta a
can. -
An enthusiast , speaking of the
fruits of the Antilles , calls the custard
apple the "spiritualized strawberry.1 '
The rind when rino is a grayish-green ,
and the snow-whito pulp resembles in
appearance a firm custard , and is
thickly sot with black seeds. It ia described -
scribed as a happy mixture of swoet-
JIOSB and acid. The sweetsop is spok
en of by travelers us a fruit having
"the flavor of perfumed ureanij frosted
with sugar. " The gtianabana or sour- ,
sop is slightly acid , and ia considered
by creoles the mimt delicious of all
fruit an opinion which few Ameri
cans who linvo eaten it in Jamaica and
elsewhere are ready to indorso. It is
populafrly served in the West Indies
soaked in wine. The only fruit in the
ilnitod States of the same family as
the cliirimoyiui , tuvoctsop nnd souisop ,
is the pawpaw of _ the Mississippi val
ley. Custary npplos and aoursopa are
sold in our markets , but they are the
most didicult of all fruits to transport ,
and specimens which answer the do-
scrintion of persons who have resided
in the trophies are rarely soon. Cus
tard apples can bo bought for from 10
to 20 cents apiece , and soursops from
20 to 40 cents. A. few lots of clilri-
moyns have reached this country in
fine order , but were brought in ro-
frigorutara. The caimito or star apple
is of the same family us the sapodilla.
It is ft favorite fruit ' of Cuba , though
its peculiar taste , or lack of taste ,
rarely pleases anyone who is not ac
customed to it. Its pink nnd white
flesh , however , it very cretty. Star
apples nro 40 to 50 cents a thuon.
i The liard red mammoo is the variety
of * this fruit of toncst brought to
our market. It is gray streaked
with red , and when cut is a rich yol-
lo\y , and gives forth u fragrant,1''nag -
nolla-liko odor. It is used in Cijba as
a pros'ervoj and ( hough sometimes
eaten raw , ia too hard to bo easily di
gestible. The soft mameo 'is aweot
and wholosoino , a'nd is n favorite des
sert fruit. Mammeo nro from 10 to
15 cents apibco.
The guava , u tiny species of promo-
granato , is unfortunately u most perishable -
ishablo fruit. A few specimens have
como in refrigerators , but they nro
ollbrod in our markets. They nro
Biuall , poar-fllmpod , canary-colorud and
pink inside , and extremely fragrant
and luscious , The Jolly , which is so
woll-kjiown totconundrcoj Ja sold in
tiny boxes at 25 cents , and in larger
pockauoa at ? 1. Canned guavaa are 30
cents a can.
The rod nnd yellow banana are not
difloront pocies. All bananas nro
naturally yellow and nro made rod by
grafting. The effect of the graft runs
out in soyon years , when , wo have
sometimes bananas that are red ,
spotted or Btronked with yollow.
There are over forty or fifty varieties
of thin fruit. The little guinoos or
fig banana is not unknown to our fruit
stores , It is not over a linger low ,
and is one of the fmost species , It is
delightful in odor and taste , and soils
in our markets , despite its small size ,
at ? 1 u do on. The plaintain and
banana are of the Bamo family. The
Oriental Christians aenrching * for the
Garden of Eden believed tliut the
banana wus the forbidden fruit , and
named it the "treo of paradise , "
though the "forbidden fruit" sold in
Paris fruit stalls and in our own mar
kets is a species of orange , the grape
shaddock It is of no special
value , is acid , and is kept
more for display than for any.
thing olso. The legend says } t waa
good till Eve tasted it , but it has boon
bad ainco. The deep doproBsions near
the stem of the fruit like the mark of
tooth arc supposed to bo the origin of
this claim.
The mandarin oranges
are a small Bpecio of fruit with a dark-
colored perfumed rind hardly thicker
than brown paper , The tangerine i
n variety of mandarin. It is the thin-
oat-skinned species of orange known ,
Mandorino and
tangerine oranges
which are in nuuket during iho winter
months , mo Bold from 75cents to 81 a
dozen. The seedless St. Michael
or.inges are brought from the Azores ,
and though cointnoU in England are
Buldoin scon in this country. They
are a small , light-colorod fruit , with
scarcely niiy aoods , and uro excellent
in tlayor. In this city they bring
from 0 cents to 76 cent * n dozen.
Fresh cpcoajmti [ or thy ; immuluro

ripe , are the favorilo food and bever-
agrfof the tropics. They are occasion-
ftfly brought to tliis market ) but a largo

largo as n butcher's ' cleaver , to OJKJII
the nutj which they strike on the stem.
A hole is thus made through the husk
and shell , and the soft pulp of the nut
is scooped out , and placed in a goblet.
The milk , which at this stage ia as
clear as spring water , is poured orvcr
the pulp , and jt is thus served to
guests with orange flowers in the gob
lets. It is drank and eaten with a
spoon. It is declared by most people
who have uaten it to bo the most delicious
;
licious form of this well-known palm
fruit , which the Coyloncso believe will
not grow out of the sound of the hu
man voice. "Tho Indian v , ill bo indolent

verb , "sobng M the defado fish floats
in the river1 or the qocoanut palm
