A Bold Explorer.

Mr.. Green. who gave lecture on his
ascent of Mount Cook at the Colonies
last night, is a member of the Alpine
club, bold explorer, cleric, tall, pale
of visage. with a jet black beard, and
has, what is very uncommon in the
faces of explorers, pleasant smile
for explorers are usually men of few
words and saturnine from much soli-
tude. MIR. Green is, of course, not a
professional explorer, but a few years
ago he was bitten with the Alpine mania
after passing through other phases of
muscular Christianity, and having con-
quered Alpine heights began to sigh
for fresh worlds to conquer. He deter
mined to assail Mount Cook-Aorangi,
the snow-capped heaven piercer. which
is the king of the Alps of New Zealand,
rising over twelve thousand feet above
the sea level. MIR. Green had with him
two world-famed Swiss mountaineers,
Emil Boss (whose hospitality at Grindel-
wald many of our readers have ex-
perienced) and Kaufman. both of
whom have since accomplished the as
cents of some of the Himalayan giants.
The most exciting part of the lecture
was the description of the terrible vigil
which the three mountaineers spent, as
they were benIghted in their descent,
and stood for nine hours on a two-ioot
ridge with fearful precipice below
them, and the avalanches laundering
down on all sides. 1t was rendered the
more thrilling bv the realistic sketch
thrown on to the sheet by the magic
lantern.-PaH Mall Gazette.

Cloth from Chinese Nettles.

Grass cloth is likely to have a more
extensive market than formerly. 1t is
4 Chinese production, specimens of
which come TO us generally in the shape
of handkerchiefs. The material is a
fibre, not grass, and species of nettles.
Those nettles are carefully cultivated in
China, where they grow in great guam
titles, as they do in India and Ceylon.
In India hitherto no marked attempt of
cultivation has been made. They are
free from the singing character of the
ordinary nettles. In Ceylon and India,
where the plants grow wild, these net
ties are cut Just about the time of seed
ing and bleached by the assistance of the
heavy night dews and the hot MILDLY
suns, and the tibres gathered together
and spun into ropes of thin twine, from
which coarse mating is made This
primitive way of treating the nettles Is
not followed in China. and, indeed, the
employment of the fibre silk for COM
mercial purposes seems to be Chinese
secret. Not only is the texture of the
cloth manufactured from this fibre very
beautiful-it is principally remarkable
for its splendid gloss and peculiar tram
sparency-but it is extremely strong
and durable. Betting for machinery
has already been made with the China
grass fibre. and on being tested it was
found that it could bear strain of s.
326 pounds to the square inch. whereas
leather could only sustain a pressure of
4,249 pounds to the square inch. So
soon as manufacturers and customers
have had a sufficient time for expert
menting we may expect TO see grass
cloth very generally used.-MaHagact-
urers' Gazette.

Hidden Gold.

'uThe carpet is old" they said; sit is worth
less. and worn, and gray;
we will have ii taken up, and new one
put down to-day.
Old things should be reverenced, no doubt,
but only when owning some grace,z
Which this old carpet does not, and new
one shall take its place.
So they went to work, as they said, at the
carpet, worn and gray,
That had covered the office floor of the mint
for many day;
But now it was worthless, they said, worth
less and worn, and so
A new one should take its place, and this
old thing should go.
When, 10! as they took it up and shook out
each dusty fold,
The whole OF the floor beneath it was cover
ed with shining gold!
For years and years it had gathered the
crumbs of a mighty wealth
Caught by tho heavy carpet, hid in its folds
by stealth.
They gathered the shining fragments, sift-
ing the gold from the dust,
A precious harvest, truly, pure and un-
touched by rust;
And the carpet they folded away, smiling to
think that they
Had called it worthless and graceless only
that very day!
All what lesson lies hidden IN the folds of
the carpet gray
lesson we meet in life constantly. day
after day:
ii we would but look for the good, ere con-
demning il worthless and old,
We would gather many a fragment OF per-
feet, untaTnishcd gold!

A Peanut Vender's Talk.

There is q big difference in pea
nuts" said corner vender the other
day. ''Some nuts are large and look
very fine, but they are tasteless- MOI
matter how carefully they are prepared
and how nicely they are roasted, they
are still lacking in all the essentials of
a good nut. They are grown on soil
that is deficient in some important re-
spect.
"A good roaster, like good cook or
good poet, must be born with 4 certainl
qualification that can not be acquired
by education. :
''Some dealers roast their nuts tool
much, Others roast them too little liz
they are roasted too much the oil is
destroyed, and nut has good deal OF
oil in it If they are not roasted enough
or if they are roasted over a slow firel
the oil is not properly brought out and
they are not good; in fact. they have a
disagreeable taste
''Some dealers steam them, but that
process spoils the flavor of nut. Most
of the nuts now sold come from Vir-
ginia. The eastern shore nuts are the
best. Patrons of the peanut often COM
plain that they find the kernels of the
nut soft and flexible instead of being
brittle; that is because they have BEEN
too long roasted.
''f You want to get nut at its best
you should eat it half an hour after ib
has been roasted. They are good for
the day and then become stale. Some
people like them hot. but they are bad
for the teeth; besides, they have not yet
acquired their proper taste. Peoplei
who are inclined to be dyspeptic should
not eat many; it would be better if they
| didn't eat them at all Properly roasted
peanuts are healthy for healthy people
An ordinary peanut-eater eats one n
minute, which is too fast
"Yes. | sell good many to ladies,
but they don't eat them on the street like
men do. In fact, a really refined person.
doesn't eat them as he walks along the
street Newsboys and bootblacks and
roughs do that. If a man has been
drinking liquor and doesn't wish to-

An Adventure In a Railway Carriage.

lately heard of an adventure that
happened to two English ladies who
were on their way TO Paris from Lon
don. They took the night train from
Boulogue, and found themselves alone
in the compartment They speedily
dropped asleep, but before long of them
was aroused by peculiar grating or
boring sound that seemed to come from
underneath the seat opposite to her.
Fancying that it was caused by some
trif1ing arrangement of the car wheel
on the axle, she at first paid no atten-
ton to it, but as the noise persisted and
at last grew louder, she resolved to in
vestigate its cause. Lifting up the
heavy cloth flap that hangs in front of
each seat in q French car, she saw with
amazement and alarm that some one in
the next car was boring group of holes
with large auger in the partition
under the seat She aroused her sister,
and they both shrieked for help as loud
ly as possible, but without obtaining
any response. Meanwhile the work
went on. and the entrance of the work
man into their car appeared to be the
question of a very short space of time
But fortunately for the ladies the tram
stopped at a station before the unknown
had effected his purpose. and they fed
precipitately to take refuge in another
compartment Unfortunately they
could neither of them speak FreI-ch, so
they We're unable to explain to the con-
ductor the cause of their sudden change
of cars, and it was not till they arrived
at Paris that they found an official who
could speak English and to whom they
told their tale. On investigation the
hole was found. having been made
sufficiently large to admit of the pas
car to another, but naturally the in
dividual who constructed it made his
escape. Had those ladies fallen into q
heavy sleep. as often happens to per-
sons who travel by night, what would
have been their fate?-Mrs. Hooper'S

Modern Proverbs.

As the odor of the rose outlives it's
beauty, even so with vIrtuous couple do
the tender feelings of youth outlive the
decay of years.
When hunger pinches poverty braves
the storm.
1t is better to be innocent than to ba
penitent
Works of art, however grand, sink in
to insigniticance when compared with
woman, that wonder of creation.
Mules and jackasseS are Us apt TO kick
at saints as they are at sinners.
He who lays a claim 10 true piety
ought to be vigilant, because the higher
the pinnacle the more fatal will be the
fall.
1t is better to live and die a mouse
among mice than a fox in palace
