On the other hand, peppermint drops are
the most open to sophistication. They
should be made of crushed white sugar,
mixed into paste with gum. But the
temptation to adulterate is too great for
the dishonest dealer to resist; conse.
quently, in order to supply the market
one-half plaster paris is mixed with in.
ferior sugar. One can quite understand
the sickness that overtakes children
sometimes after sucking those cemfits.
The wonder is that such a mass of plas
ter does not interfere more signally with
their digestion. Juiubes, those flexible
lozenges which stick so in the teeth
contain large portion of gum They
are poured into tins to cool, standing foi
several hours, sliced into sheets, and
then cut by scissors into the well known
diamond shapes.
The veritablc sugar-plum, or almond
drop, is made in a very interesting man
ner. A number of almonds, after being
coated with little gum to catch the
white sugar, are thrown into a deep pan
surrounded with steam. This pan re
wolves sideways at an angle of forty-fve
degrees. As it revolves, the almonds, Of
course, tumble over one another, and
while they are doing so the workman
pours over them from time to
time liquid white sugar al
lowing a sufficient time to elapse
between each supply for the sugar to
harden upon the comfit. In this way it
grows by the imposition of layer upon
layer until it is the proper size. By this
simple motion the sugar is deposited in
the smoothest and most regular manner.
Girls are largely employed in the sugar
plum trade. They are quick and stick
well to their work, but they have a sweet
tooth and help themselves to the lozen.

BILE to stop petty pilfering they are given
liberty to eat as much as they like.
The manufacture of the surprise nuts
is done with the utmost speed by those
little workwomen. The nut is first
opened by means of rose cutter; the
kernel is then cleared out with pen
knife, the hollow is filled with seed
sweets, and the hole by which they have
been introduced, is sealed with choco.
late. 1t is great fun, of course, when
you have cracked a nut to find your
mouth full of these small sugar seeds,
whether you expect the surprise or not.
In one part of the establishment came
upon the little artists coloring the small
articles cast in sugar. 1t was all vege,
table color, of course, and quite harm.
less. There is no great artistic talent re.
quired in the co!oring operations they
have to perform and it is too cheaply
paid to be very carefully done, but, how
ever, poor they may be as works of art,
they are not unwholesome, which was far
from being the case few years ago, be-
fore the board of health interfered in
New York for the good of our little
ones. Brooklyn Eagle.

The Laughing Plant.

1t is called the laughing plant, because
its seeds produce effects like those pro.
duced by laughing gas. The flowers are
of bright yellow, and the seed pods are
soft and woody, while the seeds resemble
small black beans, and only two or three
grow in pod. The natives dry and pull
verize them, and the powder If taken in
small doses, makes the soberest person
behave like circus clown or madman,
for he will dance, sing and laugh most
boisterously, and cut the most fantastic
capers, and be in an uproariously rdicu-
lous condition for about an hour. When
the excitement ceases the exhausted ex.
hibitor of these antics falls asleep, and
when he awakes he has not the slightest
remembrance of his frisky doings. -

Northern Limit OF COrnGrowth.

On the northeast shores of Asia corn
cannot be cultivated at fifty degrees
north latitude, although in the interior
it natures as far north as siXty-two de.
grees. On the eastern shores of America
the northern limit of its growth is fifty
degrees, and on the western shores it
reaches about fifty-seven degrees, while
In the intermediate country it is known
to grow as far as siXty-fve degrees. The
fact that it thrives farther north In the
interior of continents than on the shores
is thought by NJ. Buysman to be due not
alone to the cooling influences of ice ac.
cumulations on the coasts, but to de.
pend largely on the greater amount of
sunlight received in the dry regions far
from the oceans. In Norway corn grows
in latitude seventy degrees, the climate
being not only warmed by proximity to
the Gulf stream, but the skies being
very clear as well. Even in the most
northern regions, where the shade tenn
perature is very low, vegetation may
grow in sheltered spots exposed to the
sun, and luxuriant scurvy grass has been
found on Walden Island, beyond eighty
degrees north atitude.-LOHd0H NeWs.
