The Titusville Herold says that
asthma is of very rare occurrence in the
oil regions, and that the cause of such
exemption is found in the fact that the
atmosphere there is strongly impreg-
mated with the vapors of petroleum,
which act almost as a specific for the
relief of asthma, and at the same time
as a preventative of consumption. 1t
adds: "Let any one who is afflicted
with asthma and feels particular diff
cult spell of breathing coming on, 60 in
the vicinity of producing well, where
petroleum vapor hovers in the neighbor-
hood, and he will find great relief, and
continued presence in such neighbor-
hood will be the best means of per-
nanent cure We look forward to the
time when physicians all over the United
States will recommend to their asthmatic
patients a journey to the oil regions,
and we hope some suitable preparations
will be made for their entertainment and
diversion, The prospect Of an in6rmary
for such subjects has been seriously dis
cussed by many of our citizens, but has
not yet taken definite shape.

CALEDONIA, July 2Sth, 1873


DEAR ADVOCATE: We are having
very rainy weather here for haying; but
the farmers are haying it some. AS
was going toward Benezette last week
saw P. Roberts have an Eagle Mower
in full operation. II. Howard is build
ing an addition to his residence about
one mile below town. The cars are
funning about one mile above Benezet.e,
and we are looking for them up here in
about two months. The tunnel is all
done but arching, and Nolan & Bros.
have commenced arching it. We
would like to know where our supervis-
ors are, the road from here to Rock
Hill is not passable for tootmen. We
have not seen any one at work on it this
year. If we had such supervisors every
year we would not have to work out
much tax and would have no roads.
We have a nuisance in the shape of a
slaughter-shop, where they kill beef on
all days Sundays not excepted,) l
have not much more to write, but if any
one wants picture taken let them call
.pn business day Sunday and have one
taken. We would b. happy to heal

ORIGIN OF TEA.-The origin of tea
is thus told by the Hindoo mythologists.
Darma, a. prince of the country, went
on a pilgrimage to China, vowing he
would never rest by the way. But he
once, wearied out, fell asleep, and Was,
on awaking, so angry with himself that
he cut off his eyelds and flung them on
the ground. They sprang up as tea
shrubs, and to this origin is owing the
power of tea to produce wakefulness.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1873-07-31

CHEERFUL BUT NOT INEBRIATING
Tea, as every housekeeper should un-
derstand by this time, has been declin-
ing in price. Not long ago the reduced
duty on imported teas, produced by the
revised tariff, went into effect, and this
partly caused the decline. livestock
ing the market accounts for the balance.
During the ear ending July 1st, nearly
sixty millions of pounds of tea were i'm
ported, and the tea merchants think
that, with low prices and an increased
demand, about fifty-6ve millions of
pounds were needed for consumption
and export during that year. This left
five millions Of pounds surplus which,
added to the surplus of year ago, in
creased the present stock op the market
to thirty-6ve millions Of pounds, or
nearly eight months consumption. This
state of affairs could only result in re-
duction Of prices, the value of the tea
in some cases going considerably below
the cost of importation; so that the
wholesale dealers and the importers have
been losers. In the wholesale trade
during the past year green tea has de-
clined l3 to Is cents, and Japan, 3 to
cents. The Japan tea market was
overstocked in 1871, so that the prices
of this class were at low figure year
ago. This depression reacts on the
China and Japan tea markets, buying
for this country not being pursued on
near go extensive a scale as formerly.
The tea merchants in China, are, how
ever, as shrew as the mercantile class
elsewhere. They hold their stock stlfly,
not as yet permitting reduced demand
10 reduce the price. Cheap tea is a
great thing for our people, and for many
months past there has been a steady de-
cline in the price of this attractive ar
tlcle, which was very gratifying to tea
drinkers, however annoying it might
have been to the grocer.-[Pittsburgh

FIXING THE COURT HoUsE.-The
Commissioners have had some needed
repairs made in the Court House during
the past week. This is all we'll enough,
but new Court House is badly needed.
The old worm eaten, tumble-down, little,
narrow-contracted, building that is now
,iignifed with the name of Court House
is a miserable eye-sore, and an insult to
the good sense of our citizens, and a
by-word and reproach among strangers
who visit our town. We hope the next
Grand Jury will recommend the erection
os a new building.
