CARVING THE TEA ROOT.
A Curious Industry Which ThTiVes in
the FIOveV Kingdom
Novel Ornaments Made From Gnafet and ltedacei Roots
By PateR CeeStlaS

For mora than hundred generations
.l,sra has hecn :, mild of artists in his no
nrIo,,. rro,,i,,c. If Fo-kien whose life work
i the conversion of the pnarled and inter
laced roots If the tea tree into things of
ha.utv thar is beautv from celestial
noint of view The herb whose leaves
GLADDEN. western palates in the form of
Oolonp Hyson and Souchong is a hardy
plant and takes firm hold on mother
earth. Its roots seem to have no regular
law of growth. Sometimes they develop
very much as a beard sprouts from the
shin; at others they separate and move
along parallel lines as if they were lig-
nose ceptipede.
In general it may be said that they make
one large, clumsy mass from which shoot
out anywhere from three to thirty root
let's. Their surface is never smooth, but
always irregularly corrugated. The value
of root depends upon its size, its outline
its freedom from decay and its suggestive
ness of some everyday object. 1t is rare
that "A main root or root mass is more than
six inches in diameter Such belong to
trees ranging in age from thirty years to a
century Infrequently they attain to
twelve and fifteen inches, and are then
said by Chinese experts to be 400 and 500
years old.
The roots are dug from the soil and al
lowed to thoroughly dry in the open air
under a shed or else in moderately warm
room. The loose earth is carefully re-
moved, as is the loose bark and all pieces
decayed, cracked or wormeaten. The art
list then determines what it is to be. The
favorite types are dragons, buffaloes, cows
carnivores bears, mandarins, priests, howl
ing dervishes, dancers or mythic heroes
If the root cannot be worked into one OF
these shapes it is converted into pedestal
or platform for a figure piece. The pr
mary operation consists in saving it into
rough shape. This is done with a fine
! crosscut, and the clean edges are removed
| by rubbing them on tiles or bricks. Some
! times root is bent by softening it will
steam or boiling water and then twisting
it in any desired direction.
Now comes the hardest task of all. Th,
most valued piece is that which shows n,
art and seems perfectly natural. TIL

4 Bright Young Italian.

Twelve years ago "A ragged little italian
boy strolled into the farmhouse garden of
Edward Vansant, of New Hope, Bucks
county, He was entirely ignorant of the
English language, and when asked what
he wanted responded by playing tune on
an Old violin which he carried with him.
Mr.. Nansant took the boy into the house,
gave him his dinner, and through the help
of farmland who spoke little Italian
offered him work. The boy gladly accept
ed the chance and proved to be a bright
and reliable assistant, both on the farm
and in the household.
When he learned English, which he did
quite soon, he said that he had left New
York, soon after arriving from Italy, in
company with his father and two other
men, on Il strolling tour as musicians, but
that after a few days he had been forced
to run away on account of the brutality of
his father. a canal boat captain had given
him long ride, and he had at last been
put ashore and had wandered to Mr.. Van
SAINTS the next day. After being on the
farm for a year he disappeared
| \ few days ago Mr. Nansant received a
newspaper from Winsmer, Fulton county,
! o., in which there was an article which
! told Of the career Of one Frank kuoco, the
/ young postmaster of that place. 1t was
the story of the little Italian waif, and Mr.
| Nansant was delighted to read that he had
prospered and become one of the leading
men of the thriving town. He is also prob
ably the first Italian postmaster in the
country. -Philadelphia Record

Though it is while soaring in the upper
air that the lark sings oftenest and best

he will occasionally sing on the ground, or

promptness in the matter of getting the
manures OF the farm back on the lands
whence they originated. 1t is a fact
that almost any community will afford
a sight OF the extremes as to modes OF
conducting the affairs OF the farm. We
will simply cite our readers to what is
passing before their eyes daily as proof
Of what we say. A farm is valuable for
what it produces; not for what it may
produce, but for what it actually does
produce. The man, therefore, who has
ths faculty of getting approximately
out OF his ground all that it is capable Of
producing through "a series OF years is a
long way in advance OF the fellow who
let's his land run himself, and who is
satisfied year after year with a short
crop due to bad conditions Of soil rather
than from any overtaxing OF its capaci-
ties by the reaping OF big crops.

1t may be a surprise to the unenlightened
to learn that probably no explorer, in fore
ing his passage through Africa, has ever
for more than few days at time been
off some beaten track. Every village is
connected with some other village, every
tribe with the next tribe, every state with
its neghbor and therefore with all the rest
The explorer business is simply to select
from this network of tracks, keep a gen
eral direction and hold on his way. They
are veritable footpaths, never over a foot
in breadth, beaten hard and Melted be-
meath the level of the forest bed by cen
turtles of native traffic.
Like the roads of the old Romans, these
footpaths run straight on through every
thing, ridge and mountain and valley,
never shying at obstacles, nor anywhere
turning aside to breathe. Yet within this
general traightforwardness there is a
singular eccentricity and indirectness OF
detail. And the reason is not far to seek
/ II a stone is encountered no native will
ever think Of removing it; he simply walks
around it. 1t would never occur to him
that that stone was displaceable object
and that for the general veal he might
displace it.-Home Magazine.

Twelve hundred miles from the mouth
of the Orinoco river was as far as eX-
tended my explorations toward the sources
of that great stream said Ensign Roger
Welles, who has returned from the region
mentioned He is the only white man
who has penetrated those wilds-at all
events, since the days of the early
Spaniards.
The Orinoco is one of the biggest rivers
in the world, ~ you may see by glancing
at a map of South America. 1t is dotted
all along its course with numerous small
islands, and its upper waters are INSTRUCTED
by many cataraCts. During my long Jour
ney toward its source my canoe had often
been carried overland around impossible
falls. By the time one reaches the Rio
Meta, which is the largest tributary of the
Orinoco, navigation is further interfered
with by wild and savage Indians, who use
| poisoned arrows, so that traders who buy
and sell goods along the stream anchor the
sailing scows out in the middle of it at
night, keeping guard with rifles against
possible surprise. Washington Star.

ROOFING CUTTINGS IN SAND.

1t is quite common for those desiring
new plants from cuttings to place them
in a bottle OF water, keeping the whole
cutting, except bud, submerged I'M
til roots form. The practice OF gardeners
is to place the cutting in damp sand,
and they claim that the sharp particles
OF sand rubbing against the smooth end
OF the cutting hasten the callousing
from which the roots are started. No
manure OF any kind should be allowed
to come in contact with cuttings. The
first roots formed are very tender and
sappy. They will rot off as fast as they
form il heating manure is placed neal
them. After the cutting has been vel
rooted it may be planted in richer
ground, but even then the filling around
the roots had better be sand than rich
earth or manure. When the roots grow
they will reach the manure fast enough
if within reaching distance, and this fol
large vine may be fifteen or twent!
feet distant.

A LONDON CHARACTER.
| A Fastidious Goat which Is Well Known
! in the Streets of the West End.

-
in the Streets of the West End
The Piccadilly pet goat has no particular
name. 1t is about 10 years old, and has
lived with its present owner, Mr.. Miller
coachman to Mr. Alfred De Rothschild'
whose stables are situated in Brick street
Piccadilly. ever since it was few months
old
Living as he does among the aristocracy,
and in the very center OF the West End
the goat has acquired some very fastldlous
tastes. though he is thoroughly well be
hayed He cannot stand wet or cold, WIN
terry weather, and he has to put up with
much inconvenience at such times on that
account, as the goat will not 90 out at all
unless the day be fine and fairly warm
preferring the coy and comfortable stable
as a rule in winter 1t is most amusing to
see the goat come TO the door at an early
hour in the III 1rning and take careful
survey in all directions. If the atmos-
pherical and meteorological conditions do
not suit its fancy it turns back and gives
up outdoor exercise for the day.
Should the morning prove satisfactory
the goat will walk off, and perhaps not be
seen again until about nightfall Should

the goat is out, it will on its first approach
make for home, or, if at too great dis
lance for this, seek as comfortable shell
ter as circumstances will permit and stay
there until the ground is thoroughly dry
again. Generally the goat is not FAR wrong
in its calculations on the weather, many
people in the neighborhood having noticed
that when the goat goes out in the early
morning the day is sure to be fine one.
His rambes take hin, all along Picca
dilly, Oxford street, Regent street, anG
even farther during the season, when he
meets many of his friends, who coax hin
into shops and treat him to his favoritt
cakes and sweetmeats. He has one ques
tionable habit, which is a liking for to

Water Pipes Growing Popular.

Water pipes made after the style of the
famous Turkish chibouk are growing in
favor lately. These pipes are a positive
luxury to the man who lounges on his bed
or sofa while he wishes to enjoy his smoke.
The great advantage of the use Of these
contrivanCes lies in the fact that after the
smoke leaves the pipe it is projected
through the water in the glass bowl, and
then proceeds through the tube to the
mouth of the smoker.
The passage of the smoke through the
water thoroughly removes all nicotine
and cools it so well that when the smoker
draws it into his lungs it is deliciously
cool and free from all injurious effects
Cigars may be smoked in these pipes also
a glance at one which has been in use q
short time will show surprisingly large
deposit of nicotine on the glass of the water
bowl. This fact alone speaks for it's util-
ity.-New York Advertiser

extremely bad effect on the health of the
foot Any member deprived of its custom
airy supply of blood becomes impoverished
and enfeebled, and by and by subject to
muscular atrophy. There are people in
this city who have worn tight laced shoes
or tight CATERS solong that the muscles of
their feet and ankles have perceptibly
shrunk and lost large portion of their
power Shoes tightly laced at the ankle
deprive the foot of its needful supply of
blood, and after the foot becomes weak it
is extremely liable to sprains or wrenches,
and large proportion of people suffering

Jack Was n Woman.

Police inquiries in reference to the death
of an odd character who was known in
Melbourne as Jack Jorgenson brought
forth the facts that the deceased's proper
name was Johanna Margherita Martin
Jorgenson and that she had lived in the
Bendigo district for 90 years, wearing
male attire.
At one time she became engaged to the
daughter of one of the residents and OBJ
tanned consent to the marriage. Mrs
Theresa Newman of South Melbourne, who
believes the deceased to be her sister states
that she was 81 years of age and native
of Berlin. 1t was 20 years since they part
ed, Mrs. Newman being much annoyed at
her sisters wearing mems clothes. The
reason for this conduct on the part of the
deceased was that no one would employ
her as domestic servant ON account of a
facial distigurement.-A En-

Electric Railway Securities

1t has become apparent that capitalists
have increased their faith in electric rail
way securities, and more especially in the
stocks and bonds of those electric RAILWAYS
used as feeders or connections between i'm
portant lines of steam railways. There is
no doubt of the ability of such roads to
earn ample dividends There are many peo-
pie living in the country in the vicinity of
towns so connected who would make use of
the accommodation. The people in the
towns would also make use of the electric
road. Besides this freight and express
service is possible. AS between electricity
and steam power for such roads, electricity
is decidedly the more economical and salts
