SOMETHING BIG IN RUBBER.

The biggest "biscuit" of rubber ever
seen in North America is on exhibition
in q store in Warren street. 1t came
from the Upper Amazon, weighs a
trifie over a thousand pounds, and cost
its owners Sl0l0. Around its largest
circum erence it measures ten feet,
being composed of successive layers
that form practca ly s1lid mass
throughout. There is g ough rubber
in the "lump" TO make 5000, 900 cleo
ton bands, or, if made into single
string, there is enough TO make a line
which would reach $50 miles.
Although the bi cult is now per-
fectly black it was pure white, like the
juice of the milk-weed, when taken
from the tree. The native who made
the lump first drove two crotched
stakes III the ground at a distance OF
ten feet apart, and IN the crotches he
rested smooth pole. Then he built
fire midway between the posts in such
position as to concentrate the heat at
the center of the crosspiece. The
rubber, in its fluid consistency, was
poured on the hottest surface of the
stringer, and as it felt the warmth of
the fire it CONCEALED. By turning the
pole slowly around the layer of rubber
took its present shape, which is that of
a big, overgrown biscuit.
1t is slow work turning the stick and
congealing the rubber, and whole
day is consumed in making a single
layer. 1t took forty days to complete
the biscuit in question, for, besides
hardening il, 1t had to be cured and
smoked by processes very similar to
those used in curing and smoking hams.
The Amazon natives uss a peculiar
bark to effect the curing process,
which is burned in the fire, and which
imparts certain properties that pre-
pare the rubber for preservation. The
rubber which is here described smells
so much like the ordinary sugar-cured
ham that one could not tell the differ
ence if blndfolded. In this respect
the rubber from the Amazon possesses
distinct superiority over that from
Africa. In the latter country the na-
tives seem to know nothing whatever
about the curing and smoking process,
and the result is that their rubber has
an indescribably vile odor.
In preparing this big lump for COM
mercal use, it will be first put into the
grinder or mill, where it will undergo
treatment very like that of mastica-
ton. This makes it pliab!e. 1t will
then be put into a calender, where it
will be tattened and drawn out into
the acquired size and shape, after
which 1t will be cut up into the shapes
u sed in commerce.-Er.

just the Difference,

''It all depends on the point Of
Fiew," an old gentleman was accus-
toned to say when forced to disagree
with friend. "You can't expect me
to love shoemakers just when my OVID
shoe pinches."
"Im so sorry to CO." said a lady,
after making long afternoon call,
"but | promised to be home before
tea"
''Oh! do stay, and I'll explain is1o
FOUR husband" replied the hostess,
who had just been urging the same
invitation.
Don't do it," came her nephew's
voice from the next room. 'Don't
let her lead you into misdemeanorS
that you will be punished for after
wards. She used to coax me in just
that same way, and then had to suf-
fer for it,"
"Nonsense, Henry" said his aunt.
''That's nothing but a Joke. Don't
take any notice of it, Mrs. Bell, but
stay to tea"
You see, when / was here In
school," pursued the ruthless nephew,
1--WE lived out of town, and l was ex-
pected to be at home every night be-
fore dark. Once a week l used to
run in to call on auntie, and she al
ways persuaded me to stay to tea, and
so 60 home in the evening; and when
l said father would settle with me
afterwards, she used to say, oh, just

the visitor.

Russian Decorations.

When Russian decorations are given
to foreigners they usually take the
form of medals, which at st. Peters
burg are the reward of faithful do
mestics of the courts. Dumas pere
received the medal of st. Anne after
he had written a story of a Russian
life; but, hearing that such a
decoration was of no social value, he
returned it to ST. Petersburg, where
upon a cross Of the second-class Of
that order was dispatched to him,
with an apology for the mistake, as It
was termed. A famous singer was
once ridiculed at st. Petersburg when
he walked about wearing the medal
Of st. Andrew, which he innOcently
regarded as being very nearly equal
to the light-blue ribbon, gold collar
chain and eight pointed star, with a
blue eagle on 1t, of that famous or.
der, which ranks with the black
eagle Of Prussia and with the English
garter The medal, however. is an
upper servants decoration, and Rus
slams laugh In their sleeves when they
see foreigners-to whom it is given by
dozens-wearing it as mark of high

DIR. HOLMES ON DRAGGING
SKIRTS.

sour lanllady daughter Is young
lady of some pretensions to gentility.
She wears her trains very long,
IS the great ladies do in Europe. To be
| sLre, their dresses are SO made only to
sweep the tapestried floors of chateaux
and palaces; as those odlous arIstocrats
of the other side do not go dragging
through the mud in silks and satins,
but, forsouth, must ride in coaches
when they are in full dress. 1t Is true
that, considering various habits of the
American people, also the little
accidents VIII ch the best kept sidewalks
are liable to, a lady who has swept a
mile of them is not exactly in such a
condition that one would care to be her
neighbor. - Why, there isn't a
beast or bird that would drag its tail
through the dirt in the way these crea-
lures do their dresses. Iecause q
queen or a duchess wears long robes
on great occasions, mald-of-all-w work
or factory girl thinks she must make
herself a nuisance by trailing through
the street, picking up and carrying
about with her-pahl That's what 4
call getting vulgarity into your bones
and marrow. If any man can
walk behind one of these women and
see what she rakes up as she goes, and
not feel squeamsh, he has a tough
stomach. L would not let one
of 'em into my room without
serving 'em as David served
Saul at the cave in the wilierness-cut
off his skirts, sirl cut off his skirtsl"
/ suggested that l had seen some
pretty stylish ladies who offended in the
way he condemned.
"Styllsh women, l don't doubt, said
the little gentleman. Don't tell me
that true lady ever sacrifices the duty
, of keeping all about her sweet and clean
to the wish of making a vulgar show.
There are some things that no
fashion has any right to touch, and
cleanliness is one of those things. -

The Bearing Of Children.

If any one has reared children, and
inducted them safely into manhood
in the midst of dangers that multi
piled about them, and the troubles
that beset them, and the temptations
that surround them, and the liabil-
tiles to evil that contested their way,
he must be strangely insensible, in
looking back upon his household, if
he be not overwhelmed with a sense
Of the multItudinousness of Gods
mercies. A man may do many things
In this world that are deserving Of
praise, but there are few things that
he can do more deserving of praise
than, dying, to leave his name with
a family of children who shall more
than fill his place, who shall NAM
tain virtue and intelligence and good
habits throughout their lives.

IN TWILIGHT TIMES.

n twilight times when the full day is done,
The battle fought, the fret and fever past,
And with the quiet setting OF the sun
We sink to peace, and welcome rest at last,
In twilight times.
Old friendships steal like ghosts about us then,
OLD loves awake, old SORROWS stirring sigh,
Old fancies murmur OF sweet moments, when
The primrose bloOmed beneath the April sky,
And low and soft ring memory's golden
chimes,
In twilight times.
In twilight times the pulses beat again,
With The fresh glow and g1adness that they
knew,
When life was dancing in each youthful vell,
When JOY was sure, and hope was brave aud
true,
In twilight times.
The falling powers are bright and strong once
more,
The failing clasp on faith asserts its night,
And fresh and sv eet as dreams or fairy lore,
Life shows itself IN loves celestial light,
So low and soft ring memory's golden Chimes
In twilight times.

The Hebrew aith.

For 3, 900 years the Hebrew nation
has lived in expectation Of Messiah.
Its literature teens with references
to the glorious event. Prophet,
priest and poet have pictured his
coming and his triumph, and the
whole world has accepted these teach
ings as divine. Christianity, indeed,
sees in Jesus the fulfillment Of these
prophecies, Islam finds their
fulfiillment in Mohammed, while
the Jew, rejecting each of
these as well as many other
claimants, has looked for some other
yet to come; but all alike have ac-
cepted the prophecies as sacred and
unimpeachable.
This wonderful faith, which has
characterized Judaism through all
the centuries, has been its most pow
erful and beautiful feature. The
Hebrews have suffered and been scat
tered as have no other people, but
they have always been upheld by a
firm, unfailing assurance that some
day a descendant of their famous
ancient king would come and restore
them to their home and to a chief
place among the nations of the earth.
For thirty centuries this belief has
been their stay and strength
a precious common bond which has
bound their hearts together and pre-
served them a separate and peculiar

blue and white. In this species the
leaf and the flower stems spring direct
ly from the root, but the following
species form plants from eight to eigh-
teen inches high. Viola Glabella.
Smooth Yellow Violet. Will not grow in
the same locality as the Downy Yellow
Violet, which will be described in an
other a ticle. Grows in shady, wooded
va leys, where the soil Is a rich, loamy
alluvium. 1t has PROSTATE stems, eight
to ten inches long, bearing several yell
low flowers, May. Not very hand
some.
Viola Gamma Muhlenbergii. Muh-
Ienberg's Dog Violet A spreading,
slender species with stems six to ten
inches long, bearing smooth, pear
shaped leaves and pretty, pale-purple,
moist soil, in shades. May.
NlOld IOSiIdlh.
Somewhat resembles the last, but
hnndsomer. The flowers are pale blue,
larger, with long conspicuous spurs,
like the larkspur. May.
Viola Strata. Large Yellowish-white
Violet. Groys about foot high, with
lEe, handsome, yellowlsh-whlte
flowers, which are not spurred. May.
Viola Canadensis. Canada Violet. The
largest of our violets, often eighteen
inches high. Flowers not SO large as
in the last, but much handsomer, white
with faint blush tinge, often very
fragrant. Like some flowers pre-
viously mentioned, finely adapted for
Ii assing in large beds in flower-gardens
or parks. 1t grows in low. rather
shady woods, where the soil is very
rich, with little sand. In such places
it often covers the ground, forming
immense natural fowerbeds, like
Tiarelia Cordifolia. The finest OF our
white violets, and, except V.pedata, oui

''The Bible claims to be Gods

"Yes, the men who wrete it pre-
tend that they spake as they were

''If the Bible, then, is not what it
claims to be, 1t is, you think, an i'm
posture, and its writers liars?"
"Yes, that is what | believe"
"Good men would not lie and de-
ceive, would they?"

could not have been written by good
men?"

"Now, answer me candidly. Does
the Bible condemn sin, and threaten
bad men with punishment"
