there is a regent in Spain, and next a

Where the Nutmeg Grows.

Padding into a little cove IN the south
side of the bay, we landed beside a clear
ripping stream, and, having ordered the
whole of the men to march in Indian file
in front, we started by a little ragged
path into the mountains, with my inter-
prefer Immediately behind me and the
rajah just in front. Every foot OF the
journey, which was laborious In the
extreme, disclosed fresh scenes Of ver-
dure and tropical splendor. Winding
along the sides of deep ~ravineS, some
times dragging ourselves up by the
creepers and underground, we ultimately
attained an altitude Of about | 900 feet
above the sea and then entered the nut
meg country. Here we halted and
rested. The rajah pulled some Of the
nutmegs and explained how far they
were from being ripe, .
Having rested sufficiently we again
started forward, and after scrambling
along for about an hour we gained a fine
piece of tableland, over which we trav-
eled for about another half an hour, when
we reached three houses erected in the
very heart Of the forest. These were
used by the natives for drying the nut
megs. The country was everywhere
magnificent and the aroma of the spice
laden air delicious. Nutmeg and other
equally valuable trees were everywhere
growing in great profusion. The fruit
of the nutmeg in appearance resembles
a pear, and when ripe opens and displays
the nut covered with a beautiful red
coating of mace. The nuts are then
picked from the trees, put into baskets
and taken TO the houses, where they are
husked and placed on shelves. They are
then partially roasted over a slow fire
until all the moisture is extracted. After
this they are cooled and carried down TO
the village in nets ready to be bartered
to the Bugis, Arabs and other traders
who frequent the gulf in their small
prows or iunkos at the proper season.

Dutch Force and Character.

The Dutch mind and the Dutch force
and the Dutch character have never yet
received their just award of appreciation.
Somehow people have absorbed the idea,
and that through English coloted spec
tacles, that the Dutchman was stolid,
phlegmatic, unaspiring and lacking in
push, go and vigor. The Dutchmm may
not have rushed around like a headless
hen, using up his strength in doing
things that amounted TO nothing. He
may have sat in his several ten breeches
and meditated, pipe in mouth, but when
he got up he put his finger where it did
the most good. He fought the ocean
successfully for centuries. He has made
his gardens below the oceans level. He
was a bold explorer. He traded and set
tied in Africa and Japan generations be-
fore other nations.
He was a terrible fighter on the seas.
He once swept through the English chan
mel Of English ships, aud the thunder Of
Van Tromp's guns was heard at West
minister. He was overcome by the Eng
lish only in name when ~Stuyvesant i'll
dignantly threw the surrender of New
Amsterdam out Of the window at the
mob who clamored for it. Because the
Dutch blood and the Dutch spirit still re-
manned solid, more than solid, patient in
stead Of lazy, reserving its force till il
knew it was time TO act, and so when
mynheer did sit down on anything or
anybody, he sat down very hard. and he
sat to stay. and he has staid, and hence
today the Dutch descended Van Million
aire again sweeps through the English
channel of nobility as triumphantly as
old Van Tromp. Prentice Milford in

A Paradise for Bankers.

Manghooria appears 10 be the paradise
Of bankers. Our consul in Newchwang
says that it is well known wealthy man.
darins and merchants, not caring for
their wealth to he known, make deposits
with bankers without taking receipts,
and that il is a curious fact that rather
than risk the loss Of capital so deposited
by its becoming known ~ the paternaI
government, TO whom probably such
capital rightly belongs, no interest Is de
rived from such deposits, excepted coursC
for the bankers own investments. Al
the death of a depositor his heir may moi
know that 100, 900 taels, more or less,
are deposited in some bank or other
From such causes as these, says this au'
thority, native bankers become very rich.

Filling Bubbles with Gas.

Soap bubble parties were quite fash
ionable a little time back, aud grown
people took as much pleasure In the
pretty amusement as eve young people
did. OF course you all know how they
are made, but perhaps some Of you do
not know that you can easily make them
fly up into the air like balloons. This is
how it is done: Get a rubber tube, say a
yard long, and with an internal diameter
small enough 10 require a good deal Of
stretching to force it over the gas burner.
After you have fitted it tightly oven the
burner wrap the stem Of a clay pipe with
wet paper and push il into the other end
of the tube, where it must fit so as to let
no gas escspe. Now dip the bowl Of the
pipe into the soapsuds and turn the gas
on. The force Of the gas will blow the
bubble for you, and as the gas is lighter
than the air, the bubble, when freed
from the pipe, will go rapidly up and
never stop until it c~ollapscs. -Philadel.

grown the exact size Of q dollar. When
the plant is pulled up II is seen that the

their incipiency, and grow through all

SONG.

That lulls the night TO sweet repose;
Dreams wait to snare thine eyes
Where loves light glows and glorihesl
Sweetheart, slumber-I will keep watch DER thy

From out the scented solitudes
A waited fragrance fills the air;
Enchanted where sweet silence broods
The night wind lifts thy silken hair
To kiss thine eyes to dreams most fair
Sweetheart, slumber-l will keep watch DER thy
sleep.
Yet, as the shadows tftful grow,
The wind voice hath another tone.
Its utterance seems weird and slow,
My signs are mingling with thine own,
Lift thy soft lips close TO mine own
And slumber, sweetheart, as | keep watch DER thy
sleep.
And thus l fold thee nearer me
Thy dear face so against my breast
My heart throbs inner melody,
Ny soul, as with thy vision blest,
Is blent to thine In dreams so rest
And slumber, sweetheart, DER thy sleep my watch
