The friends of Dr. A. E. Wright will
be pained to learn of his ' sudden illness
while oassinc down South Water street

near the corner of Dock street he was
noticed to be walking very unsteady and
xn fell to the sidewalk. Dr. U. u.
Thomas was immediately sent for, and
members of his family notified of his con
dition. He was carried in a store close
bv and madias comfortable as; possible
until the arrival of the physician, who re
lieved Dr. Wright of his sufferings, when
he wad placed in a carriage and carried
to his residence. His condition is not at
all dangerous and a hope is expressed
that be will be out and attending to his
professional duties in a few days.

When the melon begins to change color
inside and its seed to turn black, a small
black speck, scale or blister begins to ap
pear on t,hc outer cuticle or rind. These
are multiplied and enlarged as the fruit
matures.. A ripe melon will shew th.em
thickly sown over the surface;' a partial
development only indicates half ripened
fruit; a full crop of blisters I reveals its
perfect ripeness. When hundreds of
melons are strewed along the sidewalk
you will have to look pretty sharply to
find one that exhibits a satisfactory "es
cutcheon," to borrow a term fyom M.
Qncnon. Cut it is unfailing when found,
and by following this guide' you may
