Tremens in Tea.

In the interior of Australia all the
men drink tea. They drink it all day
long and in quantities and at astrength
that would seem to be poisonous. On
Sunday morning the teamaker starts
with clean pot and a clean record.
The pot is hung over the fire with a
sufficiency of water in it for the days
brew and when this has boiled he
pours into it enough of the fragrant
herb to produce deep cotfee-colored
liquid.
On Monday, without removing yes
terday's tea leaves, he repeats the pro-
cess. On Tuesday da capo and on
Wednesday da capo, o,and so on through
the week. Toward the close of it the
great pot is filled with an acrid mash
of tea leaves, out of which the liquid
is squeezed by the pressure of a tin
cup, says the New Orleans Picayu1ae.
BY this time the tea is of the color
of rusty iron, incredibly bitter and
disagreeable to the uneducated palate.
The native calls it "real good old post
and rails" (the simile being obviously
drawn from a stiff and dangerous
Jump, and regards it as having been
brought to the very pitch of perfec.
ton. Doctors tell of cases resulting
from this abuse which closely border
in their manifestations, on the signs
of the delirium tremenS.

Deepest Lake in the World.

By far the deepest lake known in the
world is Lake Baikal in Siberia. 1t is
in volume comparable with some of
the great lakes of America, for while
its area is only 5000 square miles,
making it much smaller than the three
largest of the five great American lakes
and about the exact equal of Lake Erie
in superficial extent,its enormous depth
1000 to 5000 feet-makes the total
volume of its waters almost equal to
those of Lake Superior. Its level is
1850 feet above that of the Pacific
ocean but Notwithstanding its bottom
is more than 5000 feet below it.
There are many other deep lakes in
the world but so far Baikal takes the
palm. Lake Maggiore is 5000 feet
deep; Lake Como, 1000. and Lago-di-
Guarda, another Italian lake, nearly
1,900 feet in depth. Lake Constance
averages 1000 feet and Lake Superior
and Michigan about 800 feet.-Dstroit
