Point. of the Compass Among rueblos

Points of the Compass Among PueblOs.
Among the Pueblo Indians six points
of the compass are recognized, and each
has its color. North is yellow, west is
blue, south is red, east is white; the upper
regions are many colored and the lower
regions are black. All the prey gods are
represented by their images in these six
colors.
For example, there is the yellow noun
tain lion of the north, the blue mountain
hon of the west, the red mountain lion
Of the south and so on. Likewise it is
with the other beasts, and thus very
considerable number of deities is formed.
All of them must receive worshipful at
tention lest they get angry and revenge
themselves for the neglect. Washington

How Modern Greeks Vote.

In Greece at the present day the bal
lot is a little lead ball. There is box
for each candidate, divided into two
compartments A clerk goes from box
to box with the voter, carrying a bowl
full of these balls. At each box the voter
takes one, puts his hand into a funnel,
out of sight. and drops his ball into the
yes or no compartment, making a vote
for or against the candidate If he
wishes to vote for more than one party
there is nothing to prevent him-New

A popularity of the Glove tree is that
every part of it is aromatic, though the
greatest strength is in the bud. Besides
the buds, the stems are gathered and

weight of Paper MONEY.

In the treasury here one day the ques-
tion came up as to the weight of dollar
bill. Scales of perfect accuracy were
brought into requisition, and the sur
prising discovery was made that twenty
seven one dollar notes weighed exactly
as much as a twenty dollar gold piece.
The latter just balances $40 grains.
However, the bills weighed were per-
fectly crisp and new. Trial made with
soiled notes, such as come in every day
for redemption, showed that twenty
seven of them weighed considerably
more tina twenty dollar coin. Every
paper d its way through the
world CO tccumulates dirt, so
that after 4, 'se it is perceptibly
heavier. r.-Washl.. Letter.

not what they are represented to be. Under
this statute thousands of pounds of tea have
been burned because of their wholesale adul-
teration.
Tea, by the way, is one of the most notori-
ously ndulterated articles of commerce. Not
alone are the bright, shiny green teas artif-
cially colored, but thousands of pounds of
substitutes for tea leaves are used to swell
the bulk of cheap teas; ash, sloe, and willow
leaves being those most commonly used.
Again, sweepings firm tea warehouses are
colored and sold as tea. Even exhausted tea
leaves gathered from the tea-honses are kept,
dried, and made over and find their way into
the cheap teas.
The English government attempts to stamp
this out by confsca;i II; but no tea is too
poor for u, and the result is, that probably
the poorest teas used by any nation are those
consumed in America.
Beech's Tea is presented with the guar
anty that it is uncolorcd and unadulterated; ;
in fact, the sun-curea tea leaf pure and sim
pie. Its purity insurcs superior strength,
about one third less OF il being required for
an infusion than of the artificial teas, and its
fragrance and exquisite flavor is at once ap-
parent. 1t will be a revelation to you. In
order that its purity and quality may be guar
anteed, it is sold only in pound packages
