The Panama Hat Plant.

The Bolivians give this plant (Carlu-
dovica palnaatD the name of Jipagapa,
town in the republic of Ecuador,
which is the principal seat of the
hat manufacture" Panama." like
" Mocha' in the case of coffee, and
Brussels" in that of carpets being a
misnomer. Before the leaf has begun
to open-when, in fact, it resembles
closed fan-it is cut off close to the
petiole, the base of which forms the
center of the crown of the hat. 1t is
then divided longitudinally into strips
with the thumb nail, the thick part
forming the mid-rib being rejected.
The number of shred. into which it is
divided of course depends on the fine
ness of the hat into which they are to
be manufactured. The split leaf, which
is of greenish white color, is next
dipped into boiling water, then into
tepid water calculated with
lemon juice, and lastly it is al
lowed to soak in cold water for some
time, and afterward dried in the sun.
Each hat is, or ought to be, made of a.
single leaf. They vary in price, accord
ing 10 fineness, from thirteen pence to
as many pounds. The damping and
drying operations cause the shreds to
assume a curled or cylindrical form,
which much increases the strength
without injuring their pliancy. Before
plating, the coarser qualities are damp
ed with water, but the finest sorts are
left out in the morning dew, and work.
ed on before sunrise. A hat of the finest
quality, made out of single leaf, will
take several months to make it complete,
and the plating will be so lie as hard
ly to be perceptible at a short distance.
The Carludorica palmata is by no
means difficult to cultivate, and is one
of the most hardy species of the genus.
1t grows well in the damp heat of an
orchid house where the temperature
does not fall below sixty degrees.-The
Garden.

Jen and ice.

Dear wife, it don't seem long ago
Since you were Jen and was Joe;
And as the happy thoughts go back
To where we started down life's track,
1 can not find along the way
One cloud that darkened any day,
But that our love soon put to flight
The hideous monster from our sight.
And SO thought while sitting here
OF those old days to us SO dear,
And how beneath the moons pale glow
Your lips first dared to whisper Joe;
All. wife, how happy was then
AS replied and called you Jen;
But that was fifty years ago,
And you were Jen and was Joe.
Yes, wife. full ifty years have gone
Since life was full Of dreams and song,
Without thought or any fears
But that we'd love through coming years;
And though love- dreams are oft untrue,
We guessed much better than some do;
You said we'd love all through our life,
And SO we have. my precious wife.
But time 80 alters every thing
That thoughts alone can old times bring;
And when I've nothing else to do
i bring them up in sweet review;
And l suppose twill ever be
While life shall cling to you and me;
Wen not forget the long ago
When You were Jen and was Joe.

Odd French Advertisements.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: Whether
English manners are becoming Ameri-
canized to perceptible extent may be
an open question; but there can scarce
ly be doubt that the French are taking
lessons from the smartest of advertising
nations. Parisians once had sense of
the ridiculous which would have pre-
velous announcement as that In which
a lady, DESTROYS of employment, re-
hearses the list of her qualifications:
Nine. Lefebvre, sick nurse, RESULTS
chairs, watches corpses, applies leech-
es, does sewing by machinery, is an ex-
cellent cook, having been ten years in
the service of NJ. lie Baron de NJ -"
Whether one or all of these various ac-
complishments were displayed in The
service of Baron M is not stated.
Scarcely less strange in British eyes
will appear the advertisements of two
coach builders in Paris newspaper.
These excellent tradesmen have
apparently thought it quite natural
to announce the circumstances that
they have carriages for sale
under the head of "Sport." 1t must be
confessed, in justification of this view,
that drive in a French cab too often
contains one element of true sport, in
the shape of spice of danger. Mar
riage advertisements, too, continue to
be as frequent as ever on the other side
of the Channel, dowries of "f34, 900"
being apparently unable to find accept
ors. Indeed, the regular established
matrimonial agencies, of which there
are five in Paris, all genuine, affirm that
| the market is overstocked at the present
moment. AS French girl can scarcely
hope to marry without having portion
ready for her husband, the statement is
singular enough. One would have
thought that the fact had only to be
known to attract considerable number
of immigrants of the sterner sex. Irish
gentlemen who are returning every
week from the United States in bitter
disappointment might do worse than
think of land where SO many of their
kinsmen have won fame or wealth, from
| Sarsfield to Mcmahon.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY,

GRAPE JELLY.-Have your grapes
clean; put them in your stewing-pan,
and boil till quite soft. Then put them
in clean cloth, and let them drip.
Don't squeeze them. After they have
done dripping, put in your sugar pound
for pound. Il use good white sugar.)
Let it boil Is minutes. Then, while hot,
pour into your jelly tumblers.
The VIRGINIA WAY TO Cook CHICK
ENs.-The fowl to be killed, plucked,
and eviscerated in the shortest possible
time; on no account is it to be washed,
but it must be wiped dry with a clean
napkin, and cut into six parts, the
breast, the two wings, the back and
the two legs. The whole is then to be
thrown into frying-pan with butter,
cream, mush (smaH cakes of Indian
meal dough-; the whole to be done be-
fore the flesh loses its natural heat,
and the frying-pan and contents must
be heated in advance to receive the
chicken.
SHELLED BEANs.-This luxury is one
of the most palatable of garden vege-
tables, if properly prepared. Wash 2
quarts of green shelled beans put them
into thin muslin bag; tie them loose
| ly, SO as to give room for swelling; put
the bag into an iron kettle with quarts
of cold water, to which tablespoon
full of salt is added, cover up closely
and hoi1 hrisklv for an hoI1r and a uuar-
ter. Then put the bag of beans into a
colander and let it drain; then empty
out into a dish with a cover, put in a
teacupful of sweet cream and piece
of butter the size of hens egg; stil
thoroughly; cover closely, and KEEP
hot until served on the table.
PASTE FOR SCRAP-BooKs, Eric
Take quart of boiling water and dis
solve therein 1 teaspoonful of pow
dered alum, stirring it until there arr
no Jumps left in it. Then take pin
of the best wheat flour in enough colo
water to stir it in until it is perfectly
smooth batter. The alum water SHOULD
be poured into this, and the mixture
should be boiled about minutes
when it is cooked it should have a clea
transparent look. As soon as takel
from the stove, ! teaspoonful OF oil o
cloves, and the same amount of oil o
sassafras should be put into the paste
When cool put it up in some tight yes
sci for future use. 1t will keep grea
while with proper care.

ATheory Borne Out by Facts.

The theory that lack of vigor is the I'M
DERIVING cause of disease is receiving daily
confirmation of the most positive kind in
the cure of dyspepsia, liver disorders, and
kidney, bladder and uterine complaints by
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the ruling rem
edy for maladies attributable to weakness.
This superb tonic is never employed without
the most beneficial effects. The liver, the
bowels, the organs Of urination, and indeed
the entire system acquires both vigor and reg
ularity through its action, since it gives
healthful impetus to every failing function.
1t is an incompatible specific for chills and
fever, and other maladies of malarial type,
prevents their att Jacks, is a reliable means of
counteracting the effects Of undue exposure
or fatigue, and soothes as well a. strength
ems the nervous organism.

SIumbering Plants.

1t is well known that plants sleep at
night; but their hours of sleeping are
a matter of habit, and may be dis
turbed artificially, just as cock may
be walked up to crow at untimely hours
by the light of lantern. A French
chemist subjected a sensitive plant to
an exceedingly trying course of disci-
pline, by completely changing its hours
exposing it to bright light at night,
so as to prevent sleep, and putting it in
a dark room during the day. The
plant appeared to be much disturbed
and puzzled at first. 1t opened and
closed its leaves irregularly, sometimes
nodding, in spite of the artificial sun
that shed it's beams at midnight, and
sometimes waking up, from the force
of habit, to find the chamber dark in
spite of the time of day. Such are the
trammels of use and wont. But, after
an obvious struggle, the plant submit
ted to the change, and turned day into
night, without any apparent ill effects.

Col. BECKER, one of the Servian
leaders, seems to be veritable soldier
of fortune. He was born in Finland
and for some years lived in St. Peters,
burg, where he had "misunderstand-
ing'' with the police which caused him
to leave Russia. He accompanied Max
imilian to Mexico, but soon after ap-
peared in Paris, and after short stay
proceeded to Rome and was enrolled in
the Papal Zouaves. His career in Rome
however, was a short one. He went
thence to Alexandria in Egypt, where
he soon found himself at the head of a
body of the Khedive's troops, with Bey
suffixed to his name. But Egypt seems
to have become too hot for him, and
soon he reappeared in Paris. He left
that city for Constantinople to offer his
services to the Sultan. In the Turkish
capital he met Ignatieff, who procured
his pardon from Russia, converted him
into full-blooded Panslavist and sent
him to Servia.

A MAN, one-eighth negro, married a
white girl at Newport, having convinced
her that he was a Spaniard. Upon
learning of the deception, she wished
to be freed. A Rhode Island law de-
clares the marriage of white person
to "negro or mulatto" void, and up
on that ground a lawyer is trying to
have this bond of wedlock broken.
The husband, however, answers that
he is not a mulatto, but an Octoroon.
