would pass away and be forgotten, Like
Racine. Well, the lady was right, aft
or all, though not after the fashion she
intended; coffee has passed away and
been forgotten "like Racine!" About
the same time it was that coffee first
came into favor at Vienna. The Turks,
driven from before the walls of that
city by Sobieski, left their camp in the
hands of the conqueror. In this camp
here was abundance of coffee and at
retinue of slaves whose Office was to
prepare it, Coffee had already been
introduced among the Londoners in the
following manner: An English mer-
chant, named Edwards, returning from
Smyrna, brought with him a Greek
servant, Pasquet by name, who
opened coffee-shop in New
mans Court, Cornhill, in 1862.
Other coffee-shops speedily arose;
but Cromwell, then in power, set him
self against them, and closed them,
fearing lest they might injure the tav-
ems. Another account says that the
first coffee shop in England was opened
by Jew named Jacobs, at Oxford, in
1860.
All the supplies of coffee imported
for long time into Europe were OBJ
tanned from Arabia. 1t was brought
by way of Alexandria and the Levant;
but the Pashas of Egypt and Syria inn
posed enormous taxes upon it. Euro
peans then began to obtain it by the
channel of the Red Sea. Holland took
the lead in this commerce.; next fol-
lowed France; and, lastly, England.
In 1899, the Dutch, under the direc-
'tion Of Van Horne, first President of
the Dutch East India colonies, having
procured certain coffee plants, sent
them to Batavia, where they fourished
well. The French next introduced
coffee into Martinique; and the English
following their example, planted the
coffee shrub in many of their tropical
colonies.
In the United States coffee is con-
sumed to the amount of about sixteen
million dollars annually, and is con-
stantly increasing, not in strength, but
in importation.

BY JENNIE s. JUDsoN.

Oil glistening spike OF snow-white bells.
Standing out pure wherethe moonbeams fall.
You teach my heart a lesson o-night,
AS see you from this dim old hall.
Your beauty springs from bed OF spikes
Which rudely bristle about your feet;
Yotr home is but the rough roadside,
Yet how could you be more fair, more SWEET
My path, too lies in thorny way,
It's stones it's dust are about me now;
You tell me TO illume its course
With bright. brave thoughts and cheerful
brow.

No MATTER how hazardous the en-

enlist in any occupation.

In company it is very great fault to
be more forward in setting ones self off

learn the worth and to be truly ac-
