A Georgia gentleman is reported in
the Atlanta Constitution rs saying: II
can take forty Jersey cattle on u good
farm and make moro money than any
gro slaves on the same land. A man
who owns herd of registered Jerseys
and - Georgia farm is richer than u
man who owned the same number of
slaves before the war. If every freed
slave in Georgia. said he, warming
with the subject, twas replaced to-day
with good Jersey, in ten years Goor-
gia would be richer than if the cman-
cipation proclamation had never been
written. You'd better not print this.

An Australian Intoxicant.
Thcir own stimulant. kave.. tbev Z

Their own stimulant. kave,' they con-
tinue to use in great quantities, and
many of the Europeans have contract
ed liking for il. All the Wairrapans
have taste of it, and marvel that any
white man can acquire q penchant for
such stuff Its flavor resembles soap
suds more than anything else one can
compare it with. The root used is
botanically known as that of the piper
methisticum; it is hard and woody,
hence the object of the chewing, which
liberatcs the juices of the root more
freely than any other process. Euro
peans CRATE the root and pound it, but
admit that the liquor is not equal TO
the chewed. In Samoa the prepara-
ton of tho kava bowl is attended with
very great ceremony, only the young
unmarried girls being allowed to chew
it. The root is cut up into fine pieces,
and the girls, who are directed by the
pettiest of them, first rinse their
mouths, take up n piece, and when
sufficiently masticated and formed
into ball, spit it into the bowl. The
chief girl then calls for water, and
after washing her hands directs one of
her companions to pour on the water
while she stirs the root with her hand.
When enough water is in. and the balls
ara properly mixed with the ingredient.
she takes up strainer made of fibres
OF the hibiscus. and passes it from side
to side of the bowl. When the strainer
is saturated she lifts it high above the
bowl and squeezes the balls through
the strainer in her hand. This is con-
tinued until the kava bowl is ready. 1t
is contended by some of the Europeans
who use chewed root that the mastica-
ton is perfectly dry and is mere
crushing process, but of course an
amount of saliva must get Incorporated
in the process. The medicinal proper
ties of kava are tonic and nervous Sc
dative, and it is to these effects, and
not to its flavor, that the taste for the
drink arises. -Mel60urne Leader.

Did you ever notice catfish snub-
bing his way along the shore of creekp
How he noses his way slowly along up
the little inlets, along bits of driftwood,
around chunks of clay, says Bob Bur-
dette in the Brooklyn Eagle. He never
hurries, doesn't often appear to find
anything, isn't particularly anxious to
keep in tho shade. doesn't seem to
care very much whether you see him
or not he just snubs along tho shore,
idly, noisclcssly, with never splash or
n ripple; he nibbles at some incdible
substance once in while and then
abandons 1t. drifts on little farther,
finds worm or bug. swallows 1t with
the mir of n fish who has found what
he has been searching for along Eve
miles of coast line, and disappears into
deem water.

NOW, do YOU know the catfish do

NOW. do you know the Catfish de-
velopcs into q man? Here is field
for Mr.. Darwin. Any warm. very
warm. sunny day on the Ohio river,
when the water is low enough to be
yellow, you can sec the man who is
evolved from this catfish, He has q
low skin, usually. square ut each end;
it isn't exactly q scow, it looks as
though he intended to make it sharp
bowed. but lacked energy enough to
draw the sides quite together. 1t is
the dirtiest skiff on the river. A hard
rain or q sweeping freshet makes it
dirtier. The rowlocks are bits of sap
ling stuck in holes. The man who owns
that boat will hunt for days for bit of
growing timber the right size rather
than white down n piece of hickory.
He rows along the still river with the
motions and the instincts of catfish.
He meter. hurries. His oars drop into
the water without splash, and he
softly raises them without ripple
He noses his way along the bank. The
spectacle of this man rowing down the
middle OF the stream is as rare as sum
shine ut picnic. Sometimes he wants
TO cross over to the other shore, but
then he rows very. rapidly in mid
stream, the only time he is ever known
to make any exertion. Along the shore
is his favorite haunt, and here he and
the catfish are twins, and he the dirtier
and lazier. He paddles suspiciously
up to bits of driftwood, occasionally
hauling some broken plank aboard his
craft. He has a sluggish but wary eye
for floating casks and kegs; like the
other catfish he rejects four-fifths of the
things he inspects, and what he accepts
seems to give him very little pleasure.
You never meet either of this party in
clear water or on cold days. But If the
sun is hot, the water muddy, sense OF
malaria present in the adjacent swamps
you may wander along the bank of tho
river and look for the catfish snubbing
along the shore. And when you have
found him. lift up your eyes and 10.

A Good Pavement.

New York has tried every variety of
pavement on Fifth Avenue-wood, as
phalt, square block. cobblc-stone. and
patents able-and none of them
have given complete satisfaction, each
being open to one or more objections,
rs too noisy, too costly, or possessing
some other defect says the New Or
leans Times Democrat. The same may
be said of any other large city. Lon
don worried over this matter for years,
and Paris spent millions of francs paw
ing it's streets and then tearing up
these pavements, because they did not
suit There is no point in which the
world is more interested than this, and
yet there is nothing moro unsatisfactory
than its efforts to secure a pavement
cheap. noiseless. lasting, yet able to
sustain constant traffic and heavy
loads.
London and Paris say that they have
at last solved this problem. After ex-
perimenting with wooden pavements
for years, the English capital gave
thom up Us q failure. About ten years
ago, however, 1t tried new system Of
wooden pavements-or. rather, q COM
bination of wood and stone-which did
very well. The stone foundation was
made Of concrete. cement gravel, and
sand, and stretched in an arch from
curb to curb, readily supporting the
traffic that rolled over it. Wooden
blocks were laid upon this rs cushion
for the horses feet and the ears of the
public, and held together by asphalt
The new pavement gradually won its
way to popular favor in London, and it
is now essentially tho pavement of that
city. In the last ten years fifty-three
miles of it have been laid. all of which
is in good condition, and gives COM
plete satisfaction. Indeed, London is
so enthusiastic over it that all of its
streets are to be thus paved. 81
Three years ago the city of Paris sent
engineers 70 London TO inspect its
wooden pavements. 1t had found its
own macadam and stone drives too
noisy, and showing an awkward ten
dency to fill up the sewers with their
debris and sand. There was some
doubt about the new pavement ut first,
and the contract made was q very Sc
we're one. The company laying it was
to receive nothing for two years, and
not even then TO be paid unless the
street was found in good condition; if
so found il was to receive the amount
duo in eighteen annual installments.
One of the business streets in the city,
the Boulevard Montmarre, was selected
for tho experiment. A test after the
pavement had been in use two years
showed it in rs good condition as when
first laid. Paris is as enthusiastic over
the new pavement as London. and is
tearing up some of her streets to try it.
She has it down already on the Champs
Elysccs, the Avenue do rOpcra, the
Rue de Rivoli. and has just contracted
for twenty-thrco miles of it on the lead
ing boulevards.
The enthusiasm has spread to this
country and both New York and Chi
cago are preparing to test the value of
tho new pavement. Should it really
assure all that is claimed for it, it is u
discovery OF great Importance, for the
world has much to complain Of about
even its best varieties of pavement.
