A WRITER who has explored New
Guinea describes the nutmeg region.
Upon fine piece Of table-land he came
upon three houses erected in the very
heart of the forest. These were used
by the natives for drying the nutmegs.
The country was everywhere magnif-
cent, and the aroma of the spice-laden
air delicious. Nutmeg and other equally
valuable trees We're everywhere growing
in great profusion. The fruit of the nut
meg in appearance resembles pear,
and when ripe opens and displays the
nut covered with a beautiful red coating
of mace. The nuts are then picked and
taken to tile house, where they are
husked and placed on shelves. They
are then partly roasted over slow fire
until all the moisture is extracted, after
which they are sealed and sent to
market.

reads as follows: Isiac, isac, Icaack,

NINA VAN ZANDT has, at least for
every day wear, put of, mourning. She
was seen tripping down the street the
other day in a charming new suit Of
white, with pretty colored ribbons and
a neat summer hat to match. She ex-
hibited no signs of mourning whatever,
and her face wore a bright, happy smile.
The sad, angry expression which has
characterized her rather handsome
features on the streets and in public
places ever since the troubles which
overlook August Spies began, and
which she retained for at least six
months after his death on the scaffold,
appears to have gone. She is once more
the bright, sunny, happy girl that a
good mary remember her to have been
before the cloud Of anarchy passed over
her life. Nina enjoys the blessing Of a
good home, of kind, indulgent parents,
and of every opportunity tc crafty her
varied tastes. And she mas improved
these to considerable advantage. She
speaks and writes fuently English,
French, German, and italian, and is said
to be studying other modern languages.
As is we'll known, she was engaged al
most constantly from the time Of the
arrest of the man with whom she sought
+o link her fortunes in an endeavor to
secure money for his defense, and later
to obtain signatures to a petition for ex-
ecutive clemency in his behalf. When
the sallows claimed him shewas among
t},e most pronounced mourners, and was
as bitter as any surviving Anarchist
ooainst the officers Of. the law, witnesses
and iurymen who were instrumental in
her sweetheart's conviction. But OF late

nublic to the privacy OF her home on

Hops and Their Uses.

A big lot of .Otsego Golden" hops in
packages piled in the show windows of a
prominent druggist attracted the notice of
our scribe yesterday.
What do you do with SO many hopss"
Sell them," was the laconic reply
But being in an inquiring frame of mind the
scribe ventured to ask for what purposes so
many could tie used.
The pharmacist looked benevolentIv over
MS spectacles and gave him the following
There's not fraction of the hops that
VIII be used here this season. Bakers and
families buy them for yeast. Lots are used
IN medicine for making hop bitters, infusions,
teas, and hop pillows, all of which have a
sedative effect as substitutes for opium and
narcotics. But perhaps the largest market
ABOUT here is to persons and families for
brewing, in connection with grain or malt,
domestic beers or ales for home consump-
ton"
Don't you feel guilty of promoting the
consumption Of ale by selling hops then"
"Well hardly that way, about as guilty
perhaps as producers and vendors of grain
apples, grapes and molasses, feel because of
their latent alcohol possibilities
And the scribe left wondering what the in
yention of man would do next.
