A novel entertainment was carried out
at Bar Harbor, recently, in the way of a
cedar party. The quaint summer houses
in the rear grounds Of the West End
Hotel were draped and trimmed profusely
with cedar. Inside the houses were
pretty rustic tables laid with luncheon.
In the smallest of the houses in about
the centre of the hotel park the musicians
were placed. The dainty mattresses who
served the guests were all gowned in
green with green caps. dance and a
game Of tennis made up the amusements.

of the De Bossuet family and refused
to fight on the plea that he had the
greatest respect and admiration for

fight came off it would kill that

He saw that she was desperately in

While the unmarried woman of the

prosperity at present enjoyed by the
latter will have passed into salutary.
If sad, eclipse, writes Edward Bellamy
in Ladies' Home Journal. No longer
profiting by the effect Of the pressure
of economic necessity upon woman to
make him indispensable. but dependent
exclusively upon his intrinsic attrac-
tons, instead of being able to assume
the fastidious airs of sultan sur
rounded by lenguishing beauties, he
will be fortunate if he can secure by
his merits the smiles of one. In the
year 1000 no man. whether lover or
husband, may hope to win the favor
of maid or wife save by desert. While
the poet. justly apprehendinq the ideal
proprieties, has always persisted in
representing man at the feet of wo-
man. woman has been, in fact. the de-
pendent and pensioner of man. Ma
tionalism will justify the poet and
justify the eternal fitness of things by
bringing him to his marrow bones in
earnest. But indeed, we may be sure
that in the year 1000 he will need no
oompulsion to assume that attitude.

THE ORIGIN OF TEA.

Growing From tho yebro ws Of Plous
Prince OF india.
According to Jap anese legend
the origin of tea is thu, traced: An
Indian prince named Darma, of holy
and religious character. visited China
in the year SIG A. D.. for the purpose
of instructing the celestials in the
duties of rel gion. He led most ab-
stemious life and denied himself all
rest or relaxation Of body ana mind.
At last tired nature re5elled against
such treatment and thoroughly ex-
hausted. the prince fell asleep
When he awoke he was SO mortified
at his weakness that in order to purge
himself Of what he considered an al
most unpardonable sin. he cut OF his
eyebrows, considering them the in stru-
ments of his crime They fell upon
the ground and each individual hair
became transformed into shrub. which
eventually came to be known by the
name of ten
Prior to that time it had been un-
known. but Darma quickly discovered
the agreeable property of its leaves.
which endowed his mind with fresh
powers to master abstruse religious
principles and prevented sleep from
closing his eyes at imopportune mo-
ments He recommended its virtues
to his disciples. who in turn sang It's
praises to all whom they mot In
very short time its use became general
throughout the celestial kingdom.
from which it gradually extended to
all parts of the earth.
Darmas memory is perpetuated in
Chinese and Japanese drawings by the
representation OF rude figure of an
old man standing in the water. with q
reed under his feet and one of his eye
brows sprouting out into tea leaf.
In connection with the introduction
of tea into England very amusing
story is told of certain titled woman
who had been presented with pound
of the fineet green tea She had no
idea of its proper preparation and con-
sequently boiled the entire quantity
and served 1t up with melted butter as
an accompaniment TO roast of beef.
She was not pleased with its appear

A few evenings ago l was going up

young man and woman entered, each
carrying umbrellas and apparently
we'll acquainted with each other. After
riding few blocks he suddenly said:

''Oh," she replied. ii did not buy
it. it was presented to me-" and a
look of satisfaction appeared on her
countenance.
.Just what l thought" he replied;
Il didn't imagine for moment you
would buy such a cheap umbrella"
At this she was deeply hurt and
waited for her chance to even matters.
She gazed at his umbrella and re-
marked:

Il did not buy it, " he replied; ''like

TACKLED BY A CAT.
An Old York State Hunter Meets with
Surprise.

An Old York State Hunter Meets With
Surprise.
George Maben. of Big Indian in the
Catskills, had rough experience with
a wildcat in the mountains recently.
writes a Kingston correspondent OF
the New York Sun. Maben for several
years has tracked bears, wildcats, and
other animals. One day he started
out for hunt with William Hall, an
old-time hunter of Potter county,
Pennsylvania. who had been trying his
luck in the Catskills. They were ac-
compan; ed by hound owned by Hall
After tramp through the snow of
several hours the dog indicated that
he had discovered some animal in a
hole in a lodge of rocks. Maben who
was some distance ahead of Hall, hur-
ried to the dog and. dropping on his
knees, peered into the hole. In an
instant something fell upon his back
with heavy thud. A terrific howl
soon convinced him that he was in the
clutches of wildcat. With the ami
mails claws firmly imbedded in his
clothes Maben rolled over and over in
the snow, guarding his face with his
arms as much as possible. In the
meantime the dog began a series OF
attacks upon the cat and in his rage
frequently seized uNon the limbs Of
Maben instead of the animal The
fight between the dog and cat was a
savage one but the former managed
to pull the cat off of Maben, and his
companion who had hastened to a.ssist
speedily laid the animal low with a
well directed shot Maoen who was
found TO be badly hurt, was assisted to
the nearest residence and Il physician
summoned. There we're two ugly
wounds in Mabens shoulder and neck,
and his side WAS badly lacerated. The
injured hunter is nov confined to his
bed. The cat weighed thirty seven
pounds, and It's hide is now On exhibi-
ton at the BIG Indian hotel.
