Bamboo and the Chinese,

Without bamboo, the Chinaman
would be lost. 1t is of even greater
importance to him than rice, although
the latter is to the Chinaman what
wheat and corn are to the people of
other countries. The bamboo is more
to him than any other one article is or
can be to any other nation of people.
With bamboo he builds his house,
even to matching the roof, and around
it he puts bamboo fence. His carts
are made chiefly of bamboo, his cloth
ing is often, for the greater part, made
Of fine bamboo, and his hat is of bam-
boo. In hot weather he cools himself
with bamboo fan. His pencils are
of bamboo; if he smokes opium, his pipe
is of bamboo; if be smokes tobacco, his
pipe, all but the bowl, which is brass,
and perhaps a small amber mouth
piece, is of bamboo. In short, he uses
bamboo for almost every conceivable
thing, even to utilizing the young
shoots as an article of food, and very
palatable diah they make, too, when
fried n combination with other vege-
tables AND eats-Boston Gloss.

The yeritabie Fountain Of Youth.

Patrick Dunn, the locator of the
fountain of eternal youth, writes as
follows to an intimate friend in rela-
ton to his success in renewing the
youth of veteran four time loser OF
above three score years, whom he re-
Gently took to what he terms his magic
spring, located somewhere in the north
east corner of Storey county, to further
test the rejuvenating virtue of the
water:
The test on old JEFF is succeeding be-
yond my most sanguine expectations.
It is scarcely month since he left the
Comstock-a venerable, gray haired
patriarch, whose form was bowed with
the weight of IS winters, and hard
ones at that. For the first two weeks,
after bathing him four times daily in
the spring, and having him drink
copiously Of the water, his snow white
beard and hair began turning dark at
the roots, and the wrinkles at the
corners of his eyes and mouth began
to disappear. His form is now as erect
and his step as elastic as that of a
youth of 90, and his cheeks are assum-
ing the roseatic hue of perfect health,
and I am now confident that have
made the most important discovery in
the history of the world l will bring
old jeff to the Comstock about the
middle of September looking as youth
full as man of 20 years. will make
my next test on millionaire, who
must agree to give me rs per cent. Of
his wealth for restoring his youth

ExIiing a Bell

One of the most curious sights in
Tobolsk was the Kamaorllie koloko,
or bell with the ear torn off," It
was kept in kind of shed near the
archbishop's palace, and its romantic
history is often told in Tobolsk In
the Sixteenth century Prince Dimitri,
the rightful heir TO the Russian throne,
was deposed by revolt led by Boris
GodunofP, who was then proclaimed
car The seat Of government was at
Uglich, and there Dimitri was sent TO
be under the immediate control of the
unlawful ruler.
The usurper, fearing that the popu-
lace might awake to the claims OF the
young prince, planned his assassina-
ton, and he was one day stabbed in a
court yard. None of the bystanders
showed a disposition TO aid him.
4 priest, however. saw the crime
from the cathedral belfry, and imme-
diately began tolling the great / ell,
which was held sacred, and only rung
on unusual occasions, such as the cor
onation or death of a car.
Furious at this tacit expression of re-
preach, the car commanded that the
priest should be tortured and executed,
and the bell taken down and placed
beside the body of its ringer. The or.
der was literally fulfilled, and the bell
was beaten with clubs by the entire
populace, with the Car Boris at their
head.
But this was not all. In those days
Siberian exiles were tortured before
setting out on their journey by having
| their nostrils torn off with red hot PIN
| GERS. The car now decreed that the
| bell should be exiled to Tobolsk, but as
it had no nostrils, he commanded with
certain grim humor that one of its
hangers should be removed, to indicate
its disgrace.
The people of Tobolsk are very fond
of this trophy, and one sees bells every
where in the town; as signs over the
inn doors, toys, workboxes, cigarette
cases, and even sleeve links Youth''
Companion.
