A New Industry in Russia.

During the last few months a new
industry has sprung up in Russia in
the form of nicotine extract This
product not only finds sale in Russia
out Is already exported in consider
able quantities. especially to South
America. The lees obtained. when
preparing the tobacco leaf. have been
used for long time for destroying
parasites on plants. and they have also
been found eficacious when applied as
an antidote to tho various skin
diseases to which sheep are liable. It
has now, however. been discovered
that the product affords remedy
for another destructive agent-name-
~: the dry rot among Sheppard last
autumn the Russian firm Of Nikolai.
Bogianow & Co., started works in
Moscow for the production Of nicotine
extract on large scale. Four to Eve
pools of common Machorka tobacco
yield only about one pood Of the ex-
tract, but in such q concentrated form
that . teaspoonful IL sufficient for
nearly two pints Of water, and the
works produce about fifty pools Of the
extract per diem Tho Russian Gov.
arnment has decided to exempt this
product from excise duty. Any othes
uses to which this nicotine may b ap-
piled, although not difficult to imagine.
have not yet transpired.-St Peters

London. This rich man of Fuo Choy
is known as All Hok, and he gave
$40, 900 not long ago to found school
or college to teach Chinese boys the
science and culture of Christendom.
He is a Christian himself, and just be-
fore arrived in Foo Chow our Bishop
Fowler. of the Methodist church, per-
formed the marriage ceremony which
united his son to q Chinese maiden.
The ceremony was the Christian cere-
mony adapted to the Chinese, and the
Bishop tells me he bad great trouble
in getting the young lady to say that
she would take this young man to be
her welded husband It is Chinese
etiquette that the bride keep perfectly
silent on such an occasion, and the coy
damsel would not open her lips The
Bishop refused to 60 on with the cere-
mony, and the young lady finally COM
promised the matter by nodding her
head. 1T was not embarrass-
ment," said the Bishop to me. ''that
made the girl tongue tied. for felt of
her hand and it was warm and moist
as yours or mine. Had she been
troubled it would have been cold and
clammy She thought it would be i'm
proper to answer. and she refused to
do so.'' As evidence of the genuine
ness of All Hok's conversion he had
long since destroyed his idols. and he
gave the gold crown which covered
the head of one of them as present
to Mrs. Fowler. He is a bright mer-
chant and good business man. and
his home is one of the most comfort
able in China.-Frank G. Carpenter.
