A queer VuaKer Tr0veie,

A curious looking, whito haired old
man, arrayed in a peculiar garb, with e
black choker and broad brimme1 hat, is
ut the Occidental Hotel. The old gen.
tlemau is Isaac Sharp Of Warwickshire,
England, Quaker aud religious en-
thusiast. He is now eighty-four years
old aud for fifty years he has been travel
Ing in various parts of the world, and
this in the interest of tho Quakers.
He has just now returned from 1900
miles up the great Yang g-tse-kiaug River
in the interior of China. Hitherto he
has boon In Iceland, Greenland, Labra.
doc, Norway, and in various other places
in Europe, Asia .zad Africa. In the
Dark Continent he visited tho Congo
Free State, the Orange Free State, Basu.
tolani aud Madagascar.
81 spent year and a half in Africa"
said he, ga year of which was in NADIA
gascar; two years in Australia and New
Zealand, aud the remainder of six aud a
quarter years In Canada, tho United
States aud Mexico. That was tho extent
of my last trip before this. This time l
have been out long time also, my great
object being to visit the interior of China
aud do what l could there.
''It's only very little that could do,
there are so many millions of people
there, but have tried at least. aud that
is something. The people are very poor
up the Yauy-tse kianG River. That
stream, which is much larger than the
Mississippi, is mile and half wide
1000 miles up. It is rough from there
on, and l think in the additional 500
miles saw the wrecks of 500 Chinese
junks.
"The Quakers hav0 one mission in
China, one in Japan, four in India, one
in Syria aud one in Madagascar. There
may be $1,000 Quakers now in Great
Britain and Ireland, whioh is some whero
about one-fourth of what there are in the
United States and Canada. Elsewhere
we have few members who are doing
all they can for Christianity.
81 have been travelling and trying to
find out what was the best thing to do
and how to do it. l have seen many
curious things in my long years of travel,
but the thug which has impressed mo
more than anything elsS is this: That

How Long Will the supply Meet the
Demand Of this Country?

Statistics gathered from trustworthy
sources by the Puget Sound Lumberman
tell us that the United States has about
I, 200, 600, 900, 900 feet, boar1 measure, of
standing lumber, with present annual
consumption Of about 1O,000,090 feet
board measurement. This means, says
the Engineering News, IN apparent sup.
ply for 100 years; but the rapidly in
crcasing demand for timber may easily
reduce this period TO century, and pos.
sibly exhaust it In seventy live years. 1t
is true that Alaska is credited, on very
little information, with $4,000, 900, 600
feet, board measurement, Of standing
lumber, and British Columbia with
1. 0O0, 600, 100000 feet more; but these
arc certainly not to b. assumed rs home
supplies. The Lumbcrman gives tho
following figures for the aggregate of
standing timber in the United States:

Bass Checks.

Bass checks is the very latest gas.
Economical novelty. They do not figure
on cafe menus yet and are found only al
the most gorgeous and cytravagant pri-

because it takes about ton of bass to
furnish a small dish of checks. The
cheek of IL bass is n tiny nugget of the
tcndercst and most dclicately favored
meat, found in the lower part of the head
on either side. This is lifted out and the
remainder Of the bass is tossed away.

reputation in this city and New York
by his preparation of bass cheeks, and
cvcrytimc he receives n big order he
creates corner in the bass market. -
