.Ris lost Treasure.

IL was a bobtail car, pretty we'll
flled. A boy with a stack of hat
boxes under his wing had just had
a dime changed by The driver. He
was about TO take his seat when he
suddenly became greatly excited,
and dropping on his knees, began
to grovel among the Stats on the
floor Of the car, which the railroad
companies would seem to have
provided with the express purpose
of entrapping into their own Golfers
the coins that chance to escape
from slippery fingers.

But another curious result of the
perquisite system Is that the count
servants make open traffic of the
imperial leavings. Incredible as it
may sound, there is n basement
corridor in the palace which is like
bazaar, full of shops, Here not
only the keepers of small hotels
and restaurants, but the cooks of
many ladies belonging to the sec
ond-elass official world, come to
buy cold meats, pastry, sweetmeats,
wines and candies, bought from the
Court servants, as none is made
except for the Emperor. Il is TO
be presumed, however, that the I'M
corked bottles OF champagne and
other fine wines are generally sold
by the dozen, and they must form a
very substantial perquisite.

The Genuine Tea Plant.

The plant from which the Chinese
and japanese obtain the tea is called
by botanists Theabohea. 1t is q small
evergreen tree or shrub, closely allied
to the camellia-indeed one of the lat
ter, called warratah, is also said to fur
nish a certain class of tea. The bush
of the genuine tea plant grows from
three to six feet high, bushy, branch
es numerous, leafy. The young shoots,
finely silky, are evergreen. The
flowers are white and not unlike myr-
tie, but longer and usually two to-
gether; the anthers and stigma are
yellow; it flowers in August and Sep
TENDER in its native country. 1t was
first introduced into British gardens
ir>1768. The black and green teas, as
we obtain them, depend for their
color upon the process of drying.
Very young leaves and shoots give
the finest tea.-San Francisco Chroni-

According to a German scientific
journal, they are using electricity in
India to prevent snakes going into
dwellings. Before all tie doors and
around the house two wires are laid,
isolated from one another and CON
nected with an induction apparatus.
When the snake attempts to enter the
house or go under it, he com
pletes the circuit as he crawls over
the two wires, and if the shock he
gets doesn't kill him it is likely to
brighten him so that he goes away
from there as soon as he can.-Frank

Ashes for Lice Stock.

The public do not generally ap-
preciate the benefit of ashes for
nearly all classes OF stock. The
acidity in the stomach OF animals is
the rlghtful cause of many classes of
disease. Ashes which are derived
from the combustion OF veg etable
matter, such as corn cobs, stalks,
STRAW, etc, are composed largely of
potash and phosphoric acid, which
aid so materially in forming and
strengthening the bones of animals

lepce, dIarrh 9aa, etc. Cobs burned
and the ashes fed with salt, or
aandful occasionally in oats TO-.
horses, in The slop for hogs, or
ground food for cattle, or all classes
Of stock, would be a profitable use
for cobs to prevent oouring food or
acidity. All the cobs on the farm
should be burned. They are worth
little else. The ashes of cobs are
richer in potash and phosphoric
acid than any other ashes, and not
an ounce should be wasted. A
barrel or two should be saved dry
and protected from rain or damp
air, when the cobs are burned, TO
feed regularly in small quantities
at time to domestic animals. 1t
will make them healthy, strengthen
their bones, stimulate their blood,
aud ward Off disease.

Counting AmOng the Apaches.

The Apache brave when he goes
counting makes no effort to become
agreeable to his intended bride In
deed, he rarely notices or speaks to
her except TO answer some ques-
ton of hers. He pays the most as
siduous attention TO her male rela-
tives, particularly her big, lazy
brothers. At night he goes TO her
fathers lodge and distributes the
presents about. If pony he is
picketed close by; if it is . cow a
horn is tied to the lodge, which
shows his intention. The BRIDE
groom comes sneaking around in
the morning to see the result of his
proposal. If the articles have been
taken inside, the horee removed,
etc, he IS all right, w4ereupon the
bride goes and builds new lodge
or tepee for herself, and puts
things in order generally for the
buck she calls master. If the trim
kets are not touched, the proposal
is not accepted, and the sutton car
ries them away again.-Philadel-
