The late DIR. Walter Brashear, of
Louisiana, on his first voyage to China.
discovered that ginseng sold for almost
its weight in silver. and on his return
to America he employed about 800
men to dig these roots, which were
found growing in great abundance in
kentucky and Virginia, and obtained
enough to load two vessels, when the
war Of 1872 broke out between England
and America. The vessels were not
permitted to leave the American coast.
The ginseng had no market here ut
home, and the enterprise resulted in
complete failure.

Daniel Boone's Whisky.

During conversation with an old
gentleman the other day, and while
relating accounts of old times, he
told an incident in the life of Daniel
Boone, the famous explorer of Ken
lucky, which probably has hereto
fore been unpublished. He said that
when Daniel Boone and his party were
surveying the ''dark and bloody ground"
they heard the Indians, and as they
were on the warpaUh they began to de-
wise means to escape death. They had
made two chops on a tree for line.
Daniel had quart of whisky, and he
said: I'VE must do something with the
whisky or the Indians may catch us and
get drunk and kill us ALL The last
tree that was chopped had hollow
near fork, and Daniel Boone put the
quart of whisky in the hollow Forty
years has passed, and the question came
up about that spot, and Danieltold them
they could tell by the quart of whisky
in the tree. The tree was found, but
had grown large and the hollow had
grown up, but old man Boone said,
''cut it down and the quart of whisky
can be found. and the question would
be settled whether that was the spot in
dispute The tree was felled and split
open and the bottle was found, but the
whisky was gone-had evaporated in
the forty years time, it is supposed

Conservative Turkeys.

Turkeys share with geese the curious
conservatism that prevents them taking
new shapes to please poultry fanciers
The ordinary fowls never hesitate at
any absurdity, and there is nothing a
breeder could ask pigeon that it would
not do. But geese and turkeys refuse
to become anything save what they
were. They will grow as large as you
please, for they like that. Feeding is
agreeable to them. But they will not
turn trumpeter or tumbler, nun or
capuchin. 1t is no use trying to develop
variations under domesticatiou !"
They prefer to stay as they are, and
politely but firmly decline to be any
thing else. This may seem, of course, a
want of courtesy, or be construed into
lack of originality. But it is just as
well after all in this world of change
that something should remain as it al
ways was. The geese on the Egyptian
sculptures are one of the few represen-
tations that even the meanest capacity
can comprehend. The turkey is one of
the few birds that can be directly re-
ferred back to its primitive type.
Whence or where this admirable fowl,
so handsome in person and so excellent
at table, came within the sphere OF
poulry-yard history does not record.
but it's name in various languages be
trays suggestions of such differing and
such distant sources that it would seem
as if from the first its origin had been a
puzzle. Yet no one who has ever seen
a turkey in a farm-yard could set eyes
upon wild one and fail to recognize it.
The latter may be a trifie taller, and the
coloring be, perhaps, less decided, but
there is no possible room for doubt as
to species. Yet, with an acquiescence
in civilized tastes that can not be toe
highly commended, the tame bird has
been careful to lose the coarseness OF
flavor of its wild congener, and with
much consideration has exchanged the
vulturine leg-bones of its primitive an
cestor for delicate shanks, replacing
muscle and sinew with flesh, and pad
ding its breast with an amplitude OF
good meat. These changes act upon
the bird precisely as broadcloth and
boots act upon the savage caught fresh
with all his paint and tattoo. They
elevate his moral tone, and give him
personal consequence. He moves about
as if OF Importance, acquires the civil
lied sense of property, begins to pos
sess and assert rights, inaugurates So
cial conventionalities and etiquette.
The better he is treated the better he
becomes, more self-respectful and fatter

The universal testimony of physicians
is that beer acts upon the human sys-
tenn something like mildew on grape,
rust in wheat, blight on corn OF rot
among sheep. That is, it is persist
ent, inSidious sapping away of the Vi
tai powers, a corrosion and decay of the
organs, until the life force is so weak
ened that death ensueS from the most
trivial causes.
1t makes the body like those wooden
buildings whose timbers molder away
at the heart until there is nothing but
paper-hke shells TO represent what were
once strong beams, and some day lit
tie puff of wind sends the whole thing
down in a mass of dust
The man who drinks beer drags HIM
self nearer to the grave by every glass;
full 1t is not necessary that he should
daily fill himself, Ike a sponge, with
the cankering fluid in order that
it should manifest its awful effects. 1t
is all question of degree. If he
drinks but little it will take longer to
produce its baleful effects than if he
drank more. He may swill so much
that erysipelas, rheumatism, pneumo-
MIA, fever or brain troubles will carry
him off at twenty-five, or he may be so
moderate that he may escape the
beer-drinkers rot until forty-fve. But
between these two he is pretty likely to
go off.
The end is certain. Rotting has its
laws, as Interchangeable as any other nat
ural process. The dominant one is
that rotting once begun, it must run its
course. We see it in woods, meats,
and so on. The setting in of decay
may be prevented, but when it once be-
gins it is doubtful if the most powerful
anti-septicS known to science can cure
or even check it. So when the body
begins rotting under the putrelying in
fiuence of beer the process goes on
more or less swiftly according to the
amount of the putrefactive beverage
taken into the system.
1t is this putrefactiQn-thiS slow rot
ting of our peoples bodies-that en-
crosses the energy of the army of men,
and vast accumulation of capital en-
gagedin the making and sale of beer.
1t is the prime curse of the beer-drink-
ing habit that the farther the process of
rotting proceeds the more the victim
demands of the agent that carries on
the rotting. The ingenuity of tie arch
fiend himself, therefore, is brought into
play to induce men and boys to subject
their bodies to the rotting process, and
keep it up until it becomes permanent
and fixed condition. Toledo Blade.

White Goods for Summer.

The midwinter holidays are but
just passed, yet the furnishing stores
have already turned their attention to
preparing the white dresses of cotton
and linen goods that are to be worn in
midsummer. Ladies who prepare their
simplest dresses in advance of each sGa-
son by the help of seamstress are adj
vised to buy plain sheer white muslin
with but little dressing, as they sare
ready for the needle, and these form
the bulk of the white goods purchased
by large stores that make a speciality of
white suits. French nainsook and the
sheerest null, which is far lighter than
nainsook. are used for the incest dresses,
while for less expensive dresses the So
called India linen is chosen; this India
linen is really cotton of firm threads
that are so irregular that they resemble
linen, and are quite as durable; it has
taken the place of the poorer Victoria
lawns and the bishops lawn, formerly
used. White satteens are largely i'm
ported and are greatly improved by
being made of lighter weight than the
thick jean-like satteens of last year.
For those whose complexion will permit
the use of thick white goods, and who
do not find them too warm, satteen viii
take the place of pique, and will be
used for children's dresses and walking
coats, as well as for ladies' suits. Some
checked and dotted white satteens are
seen, while others have blocks, stripes
or Greek squares, or lace-like designs,
or damask patterns, or else corded te
initiate Ottoman reps. Among the nov.
elites are corded mulls with fine OF
thick cords in bars, making strong
fabric, and also null with corded
stripes, but experience teaches thai
thick and thin stripes together in wasl
goods do not wear well. Newest of al
are the large plaids, like Scotch pat
terms, in null, yet all Of pure white
these with the corded goods will be used
for afternoon dresses, trimmed with
embroidery or with lace. Piques fol
children's dresses are repped, and some
have embroidery upon them. Checked
