Stran 40 - Fruits are the overflow of nature's bounty; gems from the skies which are dropped down to beautify the earth, charm the sight, gratify the taste, and minister to the enjoyment of life ; and the more we realize this, the more shall we appreciate the Divine goodness to us, and the duty of providing them for others.
