An Odd Occupation.

Among Chicago's industries is "a
factory where the manufacture OF
shoes for corpses is carried on exclur
siveiy. Last year this factory turned
out 30, 900 pairs of such shoes.
OGt of five neat black boxes rep
resentativc of the firm took as many
different sizes. These were adults
and children's shoes. The material
corresponds with the purpose of their
use. The shoes are certainly nice TO
look at. The soles are cut out of paste
board aud are covered with grained
paper. The uppers are combination
of quilted satin aud crochet work. A
ribbon. inserted at the top aud tied in
neat bow knot, holds the shoes to-
the foot.
"Mcn's shoes are always black" 1t
was said. occasionally we turn out
a lot of brown ones. We have had
special orders for mems white shoes,
but only in few instances. Shoes
for women and children are always
white. They are not expensive; s.
TO Si5 will purchase dozen pairs"
The burial shoe. a. described above,
is patented article. 1t was designed
by Joliet (Ill.) woman miIlincr, who
now enj j1ys the profits of her idea.
The Chicago Burial Shoe Company
has been in existence for nearly de-
cade, aud is catersng to an evcr-in-
creasing demand. The firm employs
travelling man, who covers all the
territory between Maine and Califor-
MIA. II takes ten girls aud several
machines to keep up with his orders.
Tic average monthly output is 1000
pairs during the dull season; it iu-
creases TO 25, 900 during the busy pc
riod, which commences September 1.

The Duration of Lie.

The duration Of life depends neither
ON climate nor food nor race nor any
external condition, but on the natural
constitution aud intrinsic vigor of our
organs, says The Philadelphia Times.
One hundred years is the natural lifo
of man. The curtaiment below the
normal term is the result of those
errors and cxcesses in the manncr of
living which impair tho organs and
produce premature decay. From the
time of Noah TO the days of Joshua
and Moses the record is one of sue
cessiyc and gradual decrease in lon
gevisy. Joshua waxed old and
stricken in years some time before lis
death at 10.
Tie whole of life teens with Incl
dents wlsich must need cf1ec', more or

larly. where population is more
crowded, and where art and labor in
their every branch are strained TO the
uimest reach of human cxeriion, life
becomes subject ito influences which
act powerfully upon it, aud tend TO
shorten its duration.
Some particular occupations abridge
life by bodily confinement and the
privation of good air When there
is a free current of good ain the func-
tions of the body and mind arc kept

Tea Lore.

BY whom or when the virtues of
tea as beverage were discovered is
slost in the wide revolving shades of
centuries passed" The famous herb
is spoken of in Chinese annals as far
back 2500 years B. c at which time
its cultivation aud classification was
as much of an art as it is to-day.
Tradition says that its virtues were
discovered by accident. King Shen
Nung She, "The Divine Husband
man." who fiourishcd 40 centuries
ago, was boiling water over fire one
evening when some lea leaves hang
ing over the vessel were loosencd by
the heat and fell into the steaming
fluid. Nung She partook of tile de-
coction while it was hot "and felt
himself renewed in limb and sight for
seven days thereafter" Then and
there he nsecrated tea as the sacred
beverage of China. -lSt. Louis Re-

Modes of Burial in Various Countries.

The Mahometaus always, whether
in their own country or in ono of
adoption. bury without coffin or
casket of any kind.
During the time of the old Roman
Empire the dead bodies of all except
suicides were burned.
The Greeks sometimes buried their
dead in the ground, but moro gener-
ally crcmated them in imitation of the
Romans.
In India, up till within the last few
years, the wife, either according to
her wishes or otherwise, was cremated
on the same funeral pyre that con-
verted her dead husbands remains
into ashes.
When a child dies in Greenland the
natives bury live dog with it, the
dog to be used by tho child as guide
to the other world. When questioned
in regard to this peculiar superstition
they will only answer: ga dog can
find his way anywhere.
The natives of Australia lie the
hands of their dead together and pull
out their nails; this is for fear that
the corpse may scratch its way out of
the grave aud become a vampire.
The primitive Russians place a
certificate of character in the dead
persons hands, which is to be given
to st. Peter at the gates of heaven. -

ROAD DRAINAGE.


Of Results.
The ote thing necessary to a good
ToadIearth, gravel, macadam. or
paveo-ls thorough drainage OF the
1oundatlon. Money has been misap-
plied IN road-maklng because of neg
lect of thorough drainage, even when
the money has been used TO build
roads Ola material that should give
them permanent character. On
the Western prairies where the nat.
ural drainage is poor, undrained
gravel roads have suddenly become
mud roads when put to the severe
test OF long rainy spell in winter
and early spring. Not the least un-
fortunate result Of this has been a
ipreJudice against gravel roads in par
ticuiar, and a scarcely less pronounced
distrust Of permanent roads in gem
eral. Lack Of drainage was the real
cause Of the failure.
Whether the road is to be of earth,
gravel, or macadam, the earth road
bed should be graded, crowning it
twelve to fourteen feet wide, and,
twelve to eighteen inches higher I'M
the middle than at the edges. Along
each edge should be cut shallow
ditch. This is a correct general
statement which. Of course, should
be modified to suit peculiar circum-
stances. Thus in a very Aiiay coun-
try, especially IL the soil washes east
ly, the bitches should not be cut at
the sides, as they are moi necessary,
and will become serious gullies. In
hilly country it is not necessary to
crown the roadbed so high, but the
crowniDg must always be sufficient to
insure ready surface drainage. Twelve
to fourteen feet in width is sufficient.
Making the road wider has been
fotIl.J, needless expense.
With those soils and subsoils
specially well adapted TO drainage,
GROWING the roadbed and cutting the
bitches at the sides will secure the
necessary drainage, but where
the soil and subSoil are not fay-.
orable to drainage, additional meas!
ures must be taken In the country
in which reside, a gravel road has
been made FOR twenty miles, near the
Mississippi river bluffs This road is
on a soil and a subsoil decidedly grav-
ely giving splendid drainage. This
gravel road is now eighteen years old,
and has proved satisfactory. The
only means taken to secure drainage
was to crown the roadbed a little in
low places. To make a gravel road
in this way over the greater part Of
the same country would be a waste of
money for in most places the soil is
black prairie loan, and the subsoil
u tenacious clay
1t has been found quite satisfactory
in most localities, having black sur
face soil and clay Subsoil, to lay a
drain Of tile along each side, near the
edge Of the roadbed This has been
found a better location than near tho
middle of the roadway, The office of
the tile is to carry off water brought
up from below rather than water
sinking in from above. In some
localities it is necessary to use three
drains-one line Of tile beneath the
center of the roadway, and one under
each ditch at the side 1t seems un-
natural to put the tile under the side

MIR. G. L. Fox's Pictures.

To the Editor OF the Press:
Will you kindly grant me little space
in reference to three of my pictures now
on exhibition? These pictures have
special dedications. The first is called
"Wheat and Tares." 1t represents a
farmer grading wheat. Around him lie
the fallen grain and the tares. A child,
attracted by the purple bloom of the
tares shows to the man an armful of the
beautiful flowers which he has reaped.
The reaper smiles, but his smile has a
sadness in it, for men must NOW and
children must eat.
This picture is dedicated to the arts
tocrats of art. 1t is intended to human
ize that saying of Schiller, ''To live again
in the serene beauty of art, it is needful
that things should die in reality" These
words should read: To be born in art
one must live in the spirit of divine I'M
rest.
The second picture is called pride, !"
and is dedicated to students of art. The
scene is laid in stone cutters shop,
where young man begins his career as
a sculptor. At its very beginning, even
in his first lesson, he encounters the
great problem of pride. 1t comes to his
modest life in the form of a cast out of
that great storehouse of pride, the early
Florentine school. A workman, wise in
the knowledge of this world, stops his
work and smiles cynically at the ardent
nature of the lad as shown in this, his
lirst encounter with the world.
The third picture is called "Mower
