Rubber for foreign trade is divided
into fine, entrefine and sernamby. The
last variety is made from the residues
OF the coagulated sap that escapes from
the cups and flows along the trees or
drips to the ground.
Rubber was first brought to the at
tention of Europeans by La Conda-
mine, Spanish astronomer. In 1741
he arrived in Para on his return from
commission, on which he was sent
with other Spanish and French astron-
omers for the purpose of making geo.
detic observations in order to deter
mine the real form of the earth. He
did not confne himself to star-gazing,
for in several important scientific
works which he published he gave Eu-
rope information of great value re-
garding the principal natural products
of Brazil. One of them was rubber,
which, up to that time, had been un-
known to Europeans. Chicago Record

and back against his own breast, while
the second man takes both legs of the
victim, and, carrying them in his
arms next to his own body, moves
briskly on. If the wounded person
retains the power to do so he can
greatly aid the rescuers by placing his
arms around their necks while they
carry him between them. The patient
should under no circumstances be car
ried further than is absolutely neces-
sary to take him out of danger, or
else to place where he may be trans
ferred to an ambulance. Arrived there
the body should be laid fiat on a table,

The bleeding must be stopped be-
fore removal is thought of, as already
intimnted, This is done by binding
the wound or by holding the artery
just above the bleeding part in a firm
grasp. If the Samaritan is called upon
to assist an asphyxiated or otherwise
unconscious but not externally injured
person he must observe the following
leading principles: The head of the
patient must be raised and breathing
restored as quickly as possible. Only
when the comatose condition is
consequence of loss of blood the head
rest is to be placed considerably lower
than the feet, so as to induce the
blood remaining in the body to run to
the head and revive the functions of
the brain. In all cases of unconscious
ness it is necessary to entirely free the
upper part of the body from clothing,
especially the collar, necktie, suspen-
ders, and, in case of woman, the corset,
waist and girdle. The strings and but
tons of the undergarments above the
hips should also be cut and loosened.
The body is then to be placed on Ia

A Balloon Plant.

There is a very curious plant to be
found growing in the vicinity of Oro-
vile, in this State. The fruit is yell
low and little larger than an egg,
and appears like an empty bag rather
than solid, though it contains
watsry substance which evaporates or
dries up when the fruit is full ripe,
leaving sort of gas inside the fruit
which is lighter than air. This in
flated, bag-like fruit fips back and
forth in the wind till it finally breaks
loose from its slender stem, sails up
into the air, rising 100 or more feet
and finally disappearing over the hill.

to relax the skin over the abdomen.
Alter this is done the Samaritan places
his hands ON both sides of the patients q
abdomen, and, with firm, hard pres
sure slowly moves his hands upward.
This Is repeated until the strength of
the motion relaxes the air confined in
lungs and it is heard forcing its way
through the different respiratory or
Sans. 1t requires certain amount of
practice to determine the exact strength
OF pressure desirable to use in this
treatment, for if too great power is
exefted 1t Is liable to cause some in
Jury to the delicate internal organ;za-
tion of the human body.
If respiration fails to respond to this
treatment then the services of an as
slstant must be employed, and while
the pressure upon the abdomen is con-
tinued the assistant may place his
hands on both sides of the chest, below
the short ribs, and exert steady pres
sure i'll order to help forcing the
air from the lungs. The first natural
breathing produced by these mnnipu-
lations is announced by a deep sigh
from the patient and flushing of the
face. If the face becomes again pale
the Samaritans must renew their eff
forts with redoubled force. 1t some
times happens that respiration is in
terfered with by the turning back of
the victims tongue into the roof of
the mouth. In such case the Sa-
marian will find it necessary to draw
the tongue back into it's normal place
and hold it protruding slightly from

The method of harvesting wheat on

acres of wheat in one day with $50
hands and forty-fve harvesters is a
feat which has been paralleled in Cali.

George Vanderbilt is one of natures
queer freaks. He is the least known
of any of the enormously wealthy men
Of New York. He must be worth at
least $35, 900, 900, but he might walk
the length of the entire city without
being recognized by half dozen per.
tons He has never been prominent
in any public movement. He has never
attended a public function where
crowds of people congregate, and when
he goes to the theatre or to the opera
be hides himself in the rear of a box,
says the New York Herald. Young
Vanderbilt has many fads. First of
Ill he is bookworm and is in a wsy n
woman-hater. Formerly he was rated
as being, next to John Jacob Astor, the
wealthiest young bachelor in the Uni.
ted States, having 100000 in his
own right and control for every past
wear of his life. Now, as John Jacob
Astor is husband and father, George
Vanderbilt stands at the head of his
class alone,

great heights, etc, and in the agri-
cultural districts railroad collisions,
floods, lightning and accidents caused
by vicious animals.
According to the rules laid down by
Professor Won Esmarch and adopted by
the Berlin and Vienna Samaritan So
cieties the very first qualification for
one who intends to become volunteer
is that he should be able to move and
otherwise handle an injured person so
as to cause the least amount of pain
and give the least discomfort. When
three or four men are available two
should make it their sole duty to lift
the injured, while the third or fourth
should raise entirely Independently the
wounded head or limb and steady it
with the utmost care, seeing that it re-
ceive no new shock or wrench, for on
the tender treatment by these assist
ants much depends, as they have it in
their power to do greater damage than
the most delicate care on the part of
the other two will offset. The first act
of the Samaritans when called to at
tend an injured person is to see that
the patient is laid perfectly fiat upon
his back and that the bleeding is
stopped. Then, one man stationing
himself on the right and the other on
the left of the PROSTATE figure, the one
on the right side passes his right arm
beneath the back of the patient, the
man on the left passing his left arm in
the same manner. After that each man
places his disengaged hand under the
upper leg of the patient, about midway
between the knee and the thigh. The
third and fourth Samaritans meanwhile
gather the patients arms in his lap and
take in their hands the patients head
or limbs, be they wounded or not.
Then the first two Samnritans grasp
each others hands beneath the patient
and raise the body at given signal,
able that instead of their hands towel
be used or strap to better steady the
body. The ma attending the wound
ed parts must hold them as high MS
possible without contributing to the
patients discomfort
In case of great catastrophe,
where number of injured people de-
mand looking after, two men, or even
a single man, if he is strong enough,
may perform the preliminary work in
n similar manner as above described.
In case of asphyxiation, where no IN
jured limbs need to be taken into con-
sideration. the Samaritan must never
wait for assistance from other volun-
teers, but remove the body as quickly
as possible and in the best practicable
manner from the scene of the disaster.
If two volunteers are on hand one
should grasp the body firmly around
the waist, having the head, shoulders

Doctor Oliver Wendell Holmes says
that the largest elm he ever saw was

twenty-five feet in circumference.
There was an elm of about the same
size in Springfield, Mass, some years

the American elm at between 200 and
800 years. If any survive to be 800
years, he thinks, it is as wrecks, liable

The Atlanta Constitution says
Congressman Brosius, of Pennsyl

Though most people are equipped
with thirty-two teeth only, the Shah
of Persia appears to be more amply
provided for, as we are told that he
has just had his fortieth molar ex.
tracted. The phenomenon is thus ex.
planned. The first time his Eastern
Majesty suffered from a decayed tooth
and had to have it removed his loyal
subjects offered him rs solatium a
number of presents amounting in nll
to ten Thousand gold sequins. Hav-
ing thus discovered new source OF
supply for his privy purse, the Shah,
whenever he feels the want of those
little presents that help to maintain
the glow of friendship, causes the fact
of his having another bad tooth to be
proclaimed by flourish of trumpets
in all parts of his empire, and the
presents begin to pour in.
