Cid Gn T a t 2 o { ‘ent S

Sweet cider is today being retailed in Goshen at 25 cents per gallon. The supply is usually marketed the same day it is madé the plan being direct from the mill to the consumer as few peddlers want to run the risk of*selling anything that contains more than one-half of .one per cent of alcohol. Disposing of cider with much of a bead on it is courting prosecution. : :

Odd Tale That Added Word to Dictionary

~ The word ‘‘canard” comes from the French, and means really a ‘‘duck”; having originated from a famous newspaper hoax in the shape of a joke that purported to relate a remarkable case of voracity on the part of some ducks. According to the story, as printed in a French paper, -a certain farmer gathered together 20 ducks. One of these. the killed, and cutting it up into fine’ pieces, feathers, bill and all, he fed it to the remaining 19. The second ducky, was Kkilled, treated in the same way, and fed to the remaining 18; and this process was continued until the remaining duck was placed in the position of having eaten 19 companions, thus proving that by its method one duck ' could .devour nineteen other ducks. This story was written in so plausible a style and was of so curious and interesting a character that it attracted worldwide attention and was copied by one newspaper after another. As this was one of the cleverest hoaxes of the kind that had ever been perpetrated, it was adopted as the standard of that class of lterature, and thereafter hoaxes of this sort were known as ‘“duck stories” or “‘canards.”

The day originally was celebrated with religious services, in memory of the providential deliverance of the king and parliament; but at the present time is limited to the peculiar custom of parading straw-stuffed effigies of Guy Fawkes through the gtreets of London and other English cities. Robert Catesby, the principal - conspiraior in the plot; escaped, but was shof*#’ iWox'cester. three days later while attempting to raise an insurrection. Guy !E‘awkes and several others were put {to ‘death January 381, 1606.—Exchange.

Onion Given Its Due

It was an onion and not Sutter’s mill that started the gold rush in California. California historians say that it was Francisco Lopez who discovered the “gold-bearing onion” in March, 1841. He had stopped to eat lunch under a tree, when, spotting a wild onion, he pulled it up, only to find several pieces of gold clinging to the roots. The find was made in the Feliciano canyon and the San Fernando placers in that vicinity are said to have produced §5,000,000 In placer gold for Los Angeles county alone. The El Dorado rush did not come about until 1849,

Spoiled Mayor’s Triumph

The newly elected mayor of a certain town was about to make his first official journey through the place. The townspeople had arranged that from an arch of flowers under which he was to pass a floral crown should hang, surmounted by the words: “He well deserves it.” But the wind blew away the crown, and when the pompous mayor passed under the arch, to the great joy of those who had voted against him, only a rope with a noose at the end of it dangled there with “He well deserves it” standing out in bold relief above {t.

Red Crown—A Premium Gasoline at a standard price—glides up the grade of popular favor with great ease. Thousands of motorists have recognized the force of the “price per mile” argument and switched over to Red crown. | The price per- gallon contenti_on is weak-kneed—has no bearing. The story is told better by what is built in the gasoline. - Of what significance is the question of a saving of a few cents on an invest-~ ment of hundreds of dollars? If you pay less for your gasoline than the price of Red Crown, you are getting less—and that is false economy raised to the nth power, no matter how it is disguised. @
