CHAMPAGNE FROM SPONGES.
“The champagne makers of Reims
buy a lot of our sponges,” said a
wholesale dealer. “They squeeze
champagne out of them. They must
squeeze, in the year’s course, 1,000,
000 bottles of champagne out of
sponges. Mystified, aren’t you ?
“But there is no mystery about
the matter. Champagne, is it fer
ments, is powerful stuff; it breaks
the strongest bottles, and in the past
all the champagne that broke ita
bottles and escaped was lost.
“Now, though, they pack the
champagne bottles in clean sponge,
and every day or two they go over
the plant and, if any of the bottles
have broken, they squeeze into casks
the wine that the sponges have re
tained.
“This wine, reclarified, refined
and bottled again, makes a very
good second quality drink.”
Lemons In Crawforo.
It has been successfully demonstrat
ed that lemons can be grown In Craw
ford county, the home of the fruit
growing Industry of Arkansas, and
that In size they excel those grown
anywhere In the world. Miss Coch
rane of Van Buren, had a three-year
old tree from which one matured lem
on was picked last year. Recently a
fully ripened lemon dropped from the
tree. It weighed just one pound and
measured 13 1-2 inches one way and
13 the other. The fruit was well
formed and possessed a fine flavor.
The tree has one more lemon on it
and this one promises to mature In
due time.
An Unusual Funeral Procession.
The little flve-year-old child of G. A.
Danner, a poor farm hand living neat
Hot Springs, was burned to death re
cently. The iauier being unable tv>
furnish even a rougli wagon, in which
to convey the body of his child to the
cemetery, procured a small baby
buggy and placing the little corpse
in it wheeled It to the nearest bury
ing grounds, a distance of five miles,
! followed by the mother with a babe
in arms, and leading a seven-year-old
| child by the hand.
