Country people before drinking it add
ginger and salt to counteract this cool

The Chinaman. who makes so curious

not make tea-party wholly festive

cheerful tea-drinkings. At the funeral
of Buddhist priest, for instance, much
tea is drunk with great formality, and
the consumption is supposed to be for
the ediiication of the dead and the in
gratiation of the gods.
The "tea ball" that was patronized to
some extent during the winter season
did not meet with success beyond that
accorded it as novelty. Tea bail" is
ply to it, for it is a circular device of
gold and silver about the size of wal
nut. 1t is perforated with minute holes,
and the divided halves close on hinges.
This unique toy is suspended by a
slender chain from finger ring; it is
filled with dry tea, and allowed by
motion of the finger to sway back and
forwards in teacupful of boiling water
until the desired strength is impaired.
The shapely finger displays its full
symmetry during the process, but the
individual cup-strengthening soon be-
comes tedious performance, sacrifice

English have it, so specially prepared

New YORK, Oct. 3O.-Having in our
previous cuts this fall. catered to the
tastes of those who delight in ornate
styles, in velvet and fur, and plenti-
Iude OF braiding, embroidery and tinsel
ornaments, we now go TO the other ex-
IRENE and offer our readers some Sc
verely simple cloth coats, suitable for
shopping, travelling and general morn
ing wear. But we would call attention
TO the fact that in fit and finish, these
palmer garments are quite equal to any
of the more snowy ones. and bit of
good news to all intending purchasers.
We are Informed that all the Redtern
tmportations were ordered and received
before the new tariff took effect, and
therefore the prices will not be raised
this season.

heavy diagonal bison cloth. made double
breasted, with two rows of rather large
buttons. The collar is high and quite
straight, and the sleeves are not much
raised on the shoulders. The skirts are
made to fit more snugly over the hips
by means of a cross-seam.

To Whom i'd May Concern.

Notice is hereby given that the
pine timber Of Vernon parish is,
from some cause unknown to US,
dying 10 large quantities, in some
places hunreds OF acres of the finest
pine timber in the world being
dead. We have been trying to
learn the cause Of ali this, but so
far we have come to no settled
conclusion. The general opirion
is that the unusually wet spring
caused the roots to sour, there
by killing the tree, but it seems
f that was the caused other
trees would be dying. We
are of the opinion that there
is an insect which works under the
bark of the tree, and that it Only
attacks pines, thereby leaving all
other timber in a prosperous condi,
ton, while our pineries are almost
completely ruined in some sections
Of this parish and will be totally
lost If rot cut Immediately and
sawed up.--Peopie's Friend.
