Graves in China.

In every direction, as far as the eye
can reach, little hillocks of earth, from
three to six feet high, are scattered
promiscuously over the country. These
being covered with grass, now dried by
the autumn and scattered as they are
over the cultivated fields, makes one
think of haycocks after harvest oi
timothy or red-top in America. They
are the tombs or graves of past genera
tions of Chinese. And, as the leading
religion or superstition of the country
is ancestral worship, these mounds are
never disturbed or plowed over, but
stand for indefinite ages. It would
seem to a stranger that this sentiment
over the resting place OF the dead must,
to q material extent, reduce the pro-
ductiveness Of the land. For there seems
to be no system of cemeteries as in
other countries, but the owner of the
field at death is buried, as have been
his ancestors before him, in his OWL
soil at some spot at a respectful dis
tance froTc the graves of his predeces'
sor. And thus these tumuh go on in
creasing in number and closeness ol
proximity till it would seem to be only
question of time when the dead will
possess all the soil and starve out the
entire nation.-Letter from China.

Gloves grow on trees from twenty to
thirty feet high, having handsome
pyramidal shape, with leaves that are
large, glossy and evergreen. 1t is q
native of Malacca, but is now grown in
nearly all the spice islands of the In
dian ocean, the larger part of the crop
coming from Amboyna, in the island of
Ternate. Many years ago the Dutch
undertook to control the production of
this spice and to confine it's growth to
this island; they, therefore, destroyed
the Glove treesin the other spice islands,
but the high prices which they de-
manded gradually led to it's cultivation
in territory outside of their jurisdiction,
and they afterward abandoned that
policy. Still, most of the cloves now
produced are grown in Dutch territory,
and the high prices which have pre-
vailed during the last year or two have
been attributed partly to a failure in
the crop at Ternate and partly to the
Acheen war, which has considerably
interfered with the supply usually
derived from Sumatra. The cloves
of commerce are not, as many suppose,
the fruit of the Glove tree, but are the
flower buds. The ripe fruit in shape
resembles small olive; it is of q dark
red color, with one or two cells contain
ing as many seeds, and it is also aro-
matte to a certain extent, and som O.
times appears in commerce in dried
state under the curious name oi
mother of olives" It is not nearly
so pungent, however, as the flower
stems. Indeed, the whole tree-leaves,
bark and wood-seem to be impregna
ted in some degree with the strong, dis.
tinctive Glove flavor; but the flower
buds are the principal commercial prod.
uct OF the tree. When first gathered
they are of reddish color, but in the
drying process, which is generally
partly done by wood fires and partly in
the sun, they turn a deep brown color
as they are when they reach us in
America. Although the tree grows
wild to some extent, it is regularly cul'
tivated in plantations, the plants being
some ten or fifteen feet apart and care
fully pruned and cared for.

John Debois took q great deal of

st. Louis for nothing, but he achieved
success. He was traveller staying at

could be made. He was exact in his
stipulations as to the material and style,
and wished them sent to his room at a
certain time. Then he gave the same
order in another store, except that the
delivery was to be made half an hour
later. The boy who brought the first

Mrs. Symington's Bargain

All women we are told have their
weaknesses, and Mrs. Stanhope Sym
ington was china maniac, as are most
people to some degree in this aesthetic
nineteenth century OF the world. But
Mrs. Symington excelled in the matter.
She would prowl in secondhand stores,
penetrate into the cavernous recesses of
tenement houses, drive long distances
into the country to old homesteads
where she had heard vague rumors con-
cerning "haring blue" sold green
glaze. 'butterhy yellow and genuine
old India wares" She would remorse-
lessly turn the choicest pieces of mod
ern bric-a-brac from her tables to make
way for spoutless tea-pots, cracked
bowls and noseless jugs. She crowded
her rdrawing-room with brackets, shelves
and cabinets for the accommodation Of
ancient plates, which she called
ssplaques," and pitchers, which she re-
christened ''vases."
Mr.. Symington, a meek little man
with limp yellow white hair, fiat nose
and colorless eyes like dim glass mar

Once, when the night-wind clapped its wings
And shock the window-bars and roof
heard the souls Of battle-kings
Drive by in clashing proof
Sometimes a runic strife it kept,
OF winter nights, in sleeted trees;
Or underneath the caves it crept-
A swarm Of murmuring bees.
Or, now, wild huntsmen Of the air
In hollow chase their bugles blew,
While swift Ger wood and hilltop bare
The shrill-voiced quarry flew.
Sometimes heard Of lovers flown,
Safe, under ward Of storm and night,
To where, in sylvan lodge, there shone
A taper kind and bright.
These things the night-wind used to tell,
And still would tell, if might hear;
But sorrow sleeps too sound and well
To lend dreamful ear.
