The Nations Narcotics.

Every nation or race has its narcotic.
The natives of Siberia have fungus an
swering their wants; Turkey, India and
China cultivate and use opium; nearly
all Mohammedan peoples, including the
Indians, Tuks, Persians, Arabians and
Africans, have hashish or some substi-
tute for it; the natives of Hindoostan
and many other parts of Asia have the
betel nut or betel pepper; the Poly
nesians have ava; the Peruvians coca;
the New Granadians the thorn apple:
the Spaniards their lettuce; the whole
world its tobacco.
Besides these already mentioned,
there are quite number of other mar
cotics used in various parts of the world.
the Indians of Florida having an emetic
holly, and Scotland having the night
shade. This plant is historic, for ac-
cording to Morehouse, Danish army in
the time of Sweyn was made unani-
mously drunk by the Scots furnishing
them liquor that contained an infusion
of this herb, and they thus fell an easy
prey to the Highlanders In short. so
extensive is the variety and so wide the
geographic distribution of narcotics in
one form or another that it would seem
as if they were intended for some good
use, though the tendency thrs far. it
must be admitted, has been to their
abuse rather than to render them of anv
benefit as a medicine.

The Petroleum Finds in India.

H.
The government of India has received
the reports of the preliminary examina-
ton of the oil-bearing strata which exist
in the neighborhood of Sibi. The pro-
fessional reports are of a character so
decidedly encouraging that the govern
ment has determined to procure from
England the necessary machinery for
boring operations. These will begin next
winter, and will be conducted on an ex-
tensive scale. Ii the results justify the
sanguine hopes entertained the discovery
will be one of no trifing Importance,
whether in relation to Indian Industrial
development or the solution of the
Central Asian question. 1t will be re-
membered that the extraordinary rich
ness of the oil wells round Baku has
Immediately stimulated trade enterprise
on the Caspian, and has justified-on
purely commercial grounds-the con-
struction of the line, the strategic i'm
portance of which can not be doubted.
1t would be a remarkable coincidence
if, just at the time when Russia makes
her presence felt on the confines of At
ghanistar, a similar store of mineral
wealth were found along the line which
the Indian government have decided to
construct toward Candahar The de-
mand in India for Illuminating oils is
already considerable, and no doubt on
the Quetta railway, as on the Caspian
lines, the petroleum might be used as
fuel. In any case, there will be an influx
of labor from India to southern Afghan
istan, and an impetus will be given to
communication between the two coun-
tries, the political bearing of which it is
superhuous to indicate.

HOW GLOBES ARE BUILT.
TEie Process Of Making Library and
school Globes.
[Scientifc American. I

[Scientifc Americana
Our library and school educational
globes have perhaps been a puzzle to
many All inquisitive mind-they being so
light, so easily turned on their axis, and
SO smooth as 10 appear more like natural
exact productions than mechanical con-
structionS
The material of a globe is a thick,
pulpy paper like soft straw board, and
this is formed into two hemispheres
from disks. A flat disk is cut in cores,
or radical pieces, from center to circum-
ference, half of the cores being removed
and the others brought together, form
ing hemispherical cup. These disks
are gored under cutting press, the dies
of which are SO exact that the cores come
together at their edges to make aperfect
hemisphere. The formation is also done
by press with hemispherical mould and
die, the edges of the cores being covered
with glue. Two of these hemispheres
are then united by glue and mounted on
axes of the finished globe. All this work
is done while the paper is in a moist
state. After drying the rough paper
globe is rasped down to surface by
coarse sand paper, followed by finer
paper, and then receives a coating of
paint or enamel that will take a clean
smooth finish.
The instructive portion is map of the
world printed in twelve sections, each of
lozenge shape, the points extending from
pole to pole, exactly as though the peel
of an orange was cut through from stem
to bud in twelve equal divisions. These
maps are obtained in Scotland generally,
although there are two or three estab-
lishments otherwheres which produce
them. The paper of these maps is very
thin but tenacious, and is held to the
globe by glue The operator-generally
woman-begins at one pole, pasting
with the left hand and laying the sheet
with the right, working along one edge
to the north or other pole, coaxing the
edge of the paper over tie curvature of
the globe with an ivory sratuia, and
working down the entire paper to an alb
solutely smooth surface
AS there are no laps to these lozenge
sections the edges must absolutely meet,
else there would be a mixed up mess,
especially among the islands of some of
the great archipelagoes and in the arbi-
trary political borders of the nations
This is probably the most exact work in
globe making, and yet it appears to be
easy because the operator is so expert in
coaxing down fullnesses and in expand
ing scanty portions, all the time keeping
absolute relation and perfect joining
with the other sections and to their
edges. The metallic work-the equa-
tors, meridians, and stands finished
by machinery. A coat of transparent
yarnish over the paper surface completes
the work, and thus globe is built.

Precaution Against Fire.
[Chicago Herald. l

In the opera house in Munich and
Vienna water curtains have been con-
structed. This curtain consists of a
wide, thin stream continuously poured
upon the top of the stage between the
acts, completely inclosing the stage in a
transparent curtain, and it was ving
to this precaution that a recent fire
which broke out during the performance
of Tannhauser' was choked imme-
diately.

A Postoffiee on Mount Sinai.
GLondon Standard.

The world moves so fast that one learns not
to be astonished at anything. Still, we con-
fess that to hear of postoffice being estab-
lished on Mount Sinai compels us to revise
our ides regarding the fitness of things The
pious monks of label Katerin have hitherto
been regarded as holy anchorites, whose minds
had long ago become weaned from the vani-
ties of the world. But it is evident, from
their desire TO share in the somewhat quail
fed blessings of the postal union, that they
have found continuous contemplation of the
Mountain OF Moses less satisfying than they
had been led to expect.

master at the Office of delivery and have it
returned to him. Such, however, is not the
fact. The postmaster at the Office of mailing
is the only person who can recall a letter
This authority was recently given, the priv

have it returned to him, he must apply to the
