Three branches Of Business.

Among other industries that Of manufactur.
ing leather from the hides of alligators has
grown to considerable proportions. In the
United States between 1900 and 10000 alli-
gator skins are tanned yearly, which are used
by boot and shoe manufacturers in every p0r-
tion Of America, as well rs in London and
Hamburg Formerly the skins came almost
entirely from Louisiana, and New Orleans was
then the great centre Of business. Now the
Florida swamps and morasses are the harvest
fields, and Jacksonville Is the central depot.
Alligators often attain length of twenty feet,
and frequently live to q very old age. The
hides are stripped of, and the belly and sides
the only portions fit for use-are packed in
barrels, In strong brine, and shipped TO North
ern tanners, who keep them under treatment
for six months or more, when they are ready to
be cut up. The leather is principally used for
boots and shoes, but handsome slippers and
reticples are sometimes manufactured from it.
and pass muster as Russia leather. Another
new industry has lately sprung into existence
that of furnshinga
SUBSTITUTE FOR SAND OR sAwDUsT
used in sprnklug the floors of saloons and
restaurants. The new material is of paper.
and is the cast-of of another industry, namely,
the particles accumulating from the process of
perforating the heavy paper USED In working
notices or mats for framing. which the chill
dren have such fancy for embroidcring. In
httau OF returning the tlny scraps TO the paper
mills, as heretofore, to be remade for USE Il is
now saved and sold to saloons and restaurants
at q profitable though low figure. Being per
fectly white, IL has beautiful, clcanly appear
ance, and can be used much longer than either
sand or sawdust.
Another thriving business is that of procur-
ing the wherewithal to stay" ladies' corscts
and cadets inimitable figures. 1t is improp-
erly called
wHALEBONE,
| since 1t has none Of the properties Of bone. Its
correct name is balbeen. It is found at
tached to the upper jaw of the animal, and
serves to strain the water which the whale
takes into its barn-door of mouth, and to re-
| tain the small animals swallowed, like Jonah,
unawares, on which 1t subsists. For this pur-
pose nature has supplied the balbcen in reck-
less profusion, there being sometimes as many
AS 500 pieces in one whale, placed acnss each
other at regular distances with the fringed
| edge toward the mouth. Seeing that the head
alone furnishes the balbeen, the record Of an
| ancient perquisite of English Queens -Consort
evinces gross ignorance of the internal econ-
omy Of the whale. This privilege was that
| on the taking Of q whale on the British coasts
1t should be divided between the King and
Queen; the head only being the Kings prop
erty, and the tail the Queens! The reason
for this whim steal distinctinction, as actually
assigned by ancient records, was that tho
| Queens wardrobe might be furnished with
whalebone.

$50 They Wrought On"
She stood at the clumsy loom
And wove with careless song
For her task would soon be done,
And the day was bright aud longt
So she worked nt her pattern, roses red
And trailing vines; but she thought instead
Where the swcctbrier grew In the distant WOO,
And OF pleasant shade where the old oak stood.
She stood at the stately loom
And wOye with girlish grace;
And her eyes grew tender aud sweet
As she wrought In the web apace.
Strong men mounted, with lance and spear,
Then a chase with hounds and a frightened deer;
But she thought the while Of the lover knight
And softly whispered, "He comes TO night"
She stood at the treess loom,
And wove with steady hand
And watchfnl eye on tile twain
Withouuat play In the sand
stripes OF warm, dark colOr she wrought
And every thread with hope was fraught:
some day, she thought, my lad will be greR
And my bonnie wee girl nobleman's mate
She stood ut the dusty loom
Bent, and wrinked and old;
But the shuttle she feebly piled
Dropped from her neryeless hold.
"Ahi whom have ! to work for now 7"
The old dame said with shaded brow;
But I've seen the time when worked with the
best"
And she dropped her chin on her wrInklod breast
At silent, Invisible loom,
Always, morning and night
With tender care wrought one
Who was hidden from human sight
Tangled and broken threads wrought h.
And his finished web was fair TO see:
For he gathered the hopes that wero broken In
And wrought them into his web again,
