1t will be surprise to a large num-
Der of American women to be told that
the white wax, of which they make such
constant use when engaged in their
household sewing, is the diseased secre-
ton of peculiar species of fly found in
the eastern portion of central China.
Most of our countrywomen, if they have
given a thought to the subject, have
supposed that this white wax was the
refined product of ordinary bees-wax-
an article that has about it the condi-
tons of cleanliness and healthfulness,
which is more than can be said of exu-
dations of insects die to some bodily
malady. These flies apparently become
diseased from feeding ON the leaves OF
peculiar kind of evergreen tree or shrub,
of which they are exceedingly fond. The
twigs of these trees in certain seasons of
the year are thickly covered with flies,
who in time leave upon them q thick in
crustation of white matter. When this
has increased to sufficient size the
branch is cut off and immersed in boil
ing water, which causes the wax to
come to the surface in the shape of a
viscid substance, which is skinned off,
cleansed, and afterward allowed to
cool in pans. The trade in this article
is quite an extensive one, as it is esti-
mated that last year the crop was worth
not less than S3,25O,O0O.

VanderbiIt's Thrift.

VIM. H. VANDERBILT while abroad
keeps up constant telegraphic connec-
ton with his broker, and is thus advised
of all indications that may appear upon
the financial horizon. He is thus en-
abled to invest his heavy income in an
advantageous manner, at a distance of
5000 miles. Among the recent fnan-
cial facts is the big check made out at
the United States Treasury in favor of
William for O,OOO, being quarterly in
terest on his share in the Government
loan. The present amount of the ma
tional debt is $500, 900, 600 of which
he owns 1-3Oth part, or 100000, 900.
He may be considered the largest holder
of such property in the world, and his
interest at per cent. is S24O, 600 year.
We thus see that he draws $500 per day
from this source alone. No wonder he
can pay fabulous prices for the produc-
tions of the best masters. We formerly
heard much said of the wealth of the
Rothschilds, but can even that opulent
family make a better show than this
colossal capitalist who has so suddenly
taken lead in the world S array of wealth.
Nothing but death or idiocy can pre-
vent William from being the richest man
in the world If he lives ten years he
will be worth not less than 5000, COO.
This may seem almost incredible, but it
is not more so than the increase during
the past decade. Ten years ago William
was an heir prospective, but personally
considered he was not worth more than
house and perhaps a couple of hundred
thousand. At present, however, he has
capital estimated at $75,OOO,0O0 in
highly productive property, whose
profits are carefully invested. He prob
ably now accumulates $500, 900 month,
none of which is allowed to lie idle.
Any one can see how rapidly such ac-
emulation will reach even such sum
us is mentioned abovr.-NeU YorkLetter.

Apprentice Schools.

BoYs nowadays scarcely know what
being an apprentice means, although it
was formerly the great event OF most
bovs' lives. This was the case not
merely with those who learned trades.
All the yocations and professions had
their apprentices Knights had their
PAGES: physicians and lawyers took APP
prentices; and almost every man who
understood a vocation, had some boy
with him to whom he was lmparting It.
Business was then conducted upon a
yerv small scale. A man would be a
roadside blacksmith for fifty years, and
never have any other assistance than
that of two or three apprentices, who
would come to him at the age OF four
teen. serve him until they were twenty
one. and then give place to others.
In large towns like Philadelphia and
Boston. y mechanic who kept two or
three iourneymen, was thought to be a
very. thriving person indeed; and, as we
see from Franklin's bequest to the city
of Boston, a mechanic could set up IN
business upon two hundred dollars
capital.
In those days, going apprentice was
an event to which boys looked forward
for wears. Itwas like changing parents ;
for the apprentice used to live in his en-
ployer's family, and was under his gov,
eminent and control. The boy entered
into q solemn covenant with him. Here
is a part of an indenture of the last cen
tury-such a one as young Ben Franklin
signed in 1913:
"The said apprentice, his master

The Greate.t i'm tn. worId.

Without question Buffalo, N. Y, can
boast of the largest and most complete pri-
vate Sanitarium i'll the world. The Invallds'
Hotel was founded by DR.. K. V. Pierce, who
has re presented his dristrict as State Senator
and in Congress, and is known throughout
the United States the originator of DR..
Piercc'S Family Medicines, ana who has also
become widely celebrated in the treatment of
chronic diseases. The erection of this man.
moth home for invalids was made necessary
by the large number of afflicted who fiocked
to Buffalo from all parts OF the United States
TO consult DR.. Pierce and the eminent medi-
cal gentlemen associated with him as the
faculty of this celebrated institution. The
establishment is said to have cost nearly a
half mill on of dollars, and is furnished with
every appliance aud facility for the care of
chronic ailments. A corrcspondingly large
branch institution is located in London, En-
gland. The whole concern is owned and OPP
Grated by the Worlds Dispensary Medical
Association, OF which the original DR.. Pierce
is President-his brother, an uncle, and other
eminent medical gentlemen taking part in the
treatment of cases. In treating cases they
are not at all coni1ed to the mar: oy limits of

warded to its destination and delivered to
the person to whom it was addressed.
Its writer, however, will not receive an

to close up the slit through which the
handle passed. The opening had much
the look of the aperture of letter box,
and as such it had been used by ignorant
or careless people. This was one OF the
reasons that induced the postal authori-
ties to paint the London pillar posts, as
the street letter boxes are called, a
bright vermilion.

Ludlow Street, very unsavory
quarter of New York, is inha bited chief
ly, if not wholly, by Poles. They are
the cat-meat purveyors of the city,
hunting the streets at night to capture
cats for sausage. Three of them es-
pecially devote themselves to getting,
feeding, and breeding cats for the table.
The cats captured are carefully exam
ined. Those in good plight are at once
killed. The others are fattened. When
kept in yard, the walls are smeared
with something so obnoxious to the
feline nature that no cat will pass it. A
recent visitor to Ludlow Street yard
says: cit presented a most amusing
spectacle. About 100 cats of all sizes,
colors and ages, were sleeping, eating,
quarreliug and caterwauling; all grades
being represented, from the handsome
AngOra and Maltese to the homely back
yard Tom. When considered fit for
eating the cats are sold to small butch
ers who make specially of cat sausage.
The delicacy has a ready sale, which is
ever increasing. Those who indulge in
it declare cat meat superior to any
rabbit

Mrs. Mary Newman Brister, vino

Mrs. Mary Newman Brister, who
was born in Trappe, Montgomery Coun-
ty, Pa, on June 8, 1880, has celebrated
her Tooth birthday. She was never sick
in her life until last year, and then she
had fever, which Frustrated her for a
short time. She is now in excellent
health. She lives with her son and
daughter, Lewis Brister and Miss Ann
Brister, both very old people and the
last of ten children. Mrs. Brister's
maiden name was Fry. She was mar
ried in Philadelphia in 1900 to George
Brister, who was five years her senior.
He went to war in 1912, and was at the
battle of New Orleans. He died in 1850.
George Fry, Mrs. Brister's father, was a
potter, but followed the business of
transporting goods by pack horses from
Philadelphia westward. He was born
in Burks County in 1880, and was in
Braddock's campaign against the
French and Indians in 1855. In 1888,
at the age of 1O3, he started from Phila-
delphia to walk to Indiana, to visit a
relative who was living there. He
walked all the way to Cincinnati,
whence he wrote back to his family.
That was the last ever heard of him.
