with so little labor, and the tree grows
well and abundantly in New Guinea. The
method of obtaining the sage is to cut
down the tree and remove a slice Of bark
from the upper surface of the felled trunk.
| The inner wood Of the tree, which is
throughout a kind of pith, is then pounded
down with rough instruments made for
the purpose into the trough formed by tia
firm outer bark Of the tree.
| As this pith is pounded down it is taken
out in vessels formed of the sheathing
leaves of the sage palm and carried to an
other trough near by, formed, like the
first, of the bark Of another sage palm.
Here it is pressed through a rough sieve,
| formed again Of fibers from the sago palm,
into water, where the starchy part dis
| solves and settles in the bottom as a sedi
ment. THIS sediment, though not the
| granulated sago OF commerce, is the form
| in which the natives eat the food, and it
makes excellent cakes or E1ush.
Another well known production of New
| Guinea is the bird of paradise, the most
| beautiful and gorgeous perhaps, except
! the peacock, of all known birds. There
are many different kinds of them, but all
are beautiful to the eye though the noises
| that they make are somewhat trying to
| the ear. They are very shy and difficult
| to obtain, but by caution, cleverness and
| exceeding great patience the natives Sic
coed in killing them in snares or with
blunted arrows, so as not to injure their
plumage.-Cor. San. Francisco Chronicle.
High Living at Washington.
In the meantime l hear continuous
| complaints about the high prices of living
in Washington, and there is no doubt
that a radical change has gone on in this
regard. The rich men who have come
here entertain so grandly and dispense
their money so freely that, as Senator
Cullom told me the other day, the poor
statesman has hard time to keep within
the limits Of his salary. Senator Cullom
said he has made nothing since he has
been in politics, and that he has lost his
money making sense By working in the
field Of craftsmanship.
The days when congressman could
board on 81 day have long since gone
by, and the man who gets along now on
500 week does remarkably well. If he
has his wife and children with him his
bills run well Up in the hundreds per
month. and if he has not the chances are
that the allurements of Washington life
Will carry him fast along the road to per-
dlton.-Carpenter's Letter.
