New Zealand Coal.

In report which has just been pre-
pared by DR.. Hector, some interesting
information is given regarding the coal
seams of Otago, New Zealand. The
Green Island district is estimated to
have an area Of eight square miles,
containing coal of workable quality,
and the Kaitangota coal field is believed
to extend over forty square miles. 1t
is calculated that, by working six feet
only from the centre of the Green
Island seam the available yield will be
100000 tons, and this will leave
46, 100000 tons still unworked. There
are six coal mines in operation. The
average amount of coal won per day
per man in the Green Island district is
the least of any Of the working collier
les of New Zealand, and the cost of
getting the same is higher here than at
any other mine Of the Kaitangata
mine DR.. Hector reports: .'sThis is the
third mine which has been opened in
this important coal field, which extends
over forty square miles, and is esti-
mated to contain a100,000,000 tons of
coal" Goal Trade Journal. ar ~

The Value Of Fresh Air.

Recent statistics show that the rate
of mortality among grocers is as rs to
100, among the general population, at
equal ages: while the death-rate among
diapers is as los to 1UO, by the same
standard. On analysing the cause of
this difference between the diapers and
the grocers, it is found that it lies in
the mode of living, The disease which
destroys the draper is pulmonary con-
sumption. The explanation is simple.
The grocer lives in a shop, the door of
which is open the whole day, and he is
very active himself in business. The
draper, on the other hand, lives in a
close place with the doors of his shop
closed, and in a dusty, close atmo-
sphere. No one whose pleasure or
business calls on him to enter the ma
jority of our large drapery empori-
ums in London but will feel in DO
sition to testify to the truth Of this de-
scription. The heat and closeness
which are their usual characteristic
sufficiently accounts for the general
pallor and unhealthy appearance of the
male and female attendants in them

Care of Clothing.

The care Of clothing is an important
matter, and is thus discoursed upon by
the Golden Rule: .t@is* -
1t makes a great difference in the
looks and wear of hat or coat, whether
it is thrown down on the lounge or
chair when taken of, or carefully hung
up. With two boys the expense of
their clothing is often nearly one-half
in difference because one of them
will always hang up his clothes care
fully, while the others may be found
anywhere they can be found at
all Properly brushing and cleaning
clothes, and mending them as soon as
required, rather than waiting until the
thread ravels out or the tear has grown
too large to be neatly repaired, add
greatly to their durability. When they
get a little seedy, have some tailor who
does the work cheap and we'll give
them a good cleansing and pressing.
This may be done several times to a
good suit, and each time they will
" look as good as new" Here is where
true economy comes in, in the care of
clothing, and proper attention to re-
pairing and cleansing. More than
half the expense can be saved in the
bill for the year if pains are taken to
secure material worthy of such care.

Gathering Coca in Peru.

A plant is extensively cultivated in
Peru and Bolivia, and depended upon
by the people as one of the necessities
Of life This is the coca. or cuca
(Efythroaylo', coca.) 1t is chewed with
Quicklime, like the areca and betel of
India, but its effects on the system are
more striking 1t is not nutritive, it is
not intoxicating, but it is certainly in
MIGRATING. Scientific men have tested
and examined it, but fail to find the
secret of its influence. Some think it
only imaginary, some think it a mar
cotic with an exhilarating influence for
the moment.
But where science fails, the facts stand
out clear and Indians with little food.
but constantly chewing coca, travel on
foot journeys of two hundred miles in
three days. And this they do not in
exceptional cases but steadily. They
are never seen helpless from it's effects,
as men become from opium or liquor.
On the contrary, it helps and aids men
to work. With it men can toll on for
twenty Or thirty consecutive hours, I'M
refreshed by sleep.
About pound week is issued to a
man; yet it's strength is such that,
when used for tea, four or five leaves
are enough to steep Tor six persons.
The Republic of Peru introduces the
coca and the vicuna into her coat-of
arms as one of the characteristic pro-
auctions Of the country.
The cultivation is easy, and is ex-
tensively carried on in the valley of
Ituata. The gathering of the crop,
from january to March, is general
merry-makiug. Men and women flock
to the fields, gathering the leaves into
cloths, which, when full, are emptied
into baskets, When all is gathered
the leaves are spread on rough bas-
Network to dry for two Or three days,
and are then packed in bags to be sent
to all parts. 5..,
When the labor is ended, dancing
and drinking begin, and excuses of all
kinds result. This we need not picture
either inwords or artistically.
The plant is one that deserves a more
extended study than it has yet received.
Its effect on the laboring classes in
Peru is certainly not intoxicating nor
enervating; on the contrary, it has,
like tea and coffee, and in a higher de-
gree, the power of supplying vital force
as a substitute for food.
No attempt that we remember has
been made to cultivate the plant else
where, yet the valleys of Mexico
and our southern borders there would
seem to supply the same conditions
required for its success in Peru 1t is
strange indeed that q plant figuring in
can Republics should be SO completely
unknown to us.
