a Strange Calling.

A lame little man with dark
complexion and Wheeling cough,
who wears light SLOUGH hat and
constantly carries an umbrella,
who has been seen the last few
days at the Hotel Emery, is a much
travelled man, who has crossed
both the Atlantic and the Pacific
81 times within the past decade.
1t is Albert E. Haigh, and his call
ing is one that is seldom heard of.
Mr.. Haigh's business brings him
in direct contact with wholesale
druggists and he does his own buy
ing, importing and selling of lie
orice, in the handling of which he
has made fortune. 81 go across
the big ponds at least four times
year," he said, between putfs of
cigarettes he rolled himself from
dried cornshucks, "and Pve become
used to the water. To tell the
truth, Pm restless when on land,
and suffer a great deal from an
asthmatic affection that | never
feel while on the ocean nor when
looking up the licOrice along the
banks of the Euphrates or the
Tigris rivers. Never saw a licorice
plant, reckon? Well, I'Il tell you
about them. The plant is a shrub
that never grows much more than
three feet high and grows without
any cultivation whatever along
the banks Of the rivers which flow
through immense treeless prairies
Of uncultivated land. The roots
project uncovered from the bank,
and for miles and miles are washed
by the flowing waters. The eli
mate Of the country is rather vari-
able, half Of the year being pleas
ant and mild somewhat like the
weather Of the past few days in
Cincinnati, while about three
months, June, July and August,
the temperature will run up as
high as 1924 degrees for a straight
period. The natives always col
lect the root Of the licorice plant
during the winter months and as
the root is full Of water, it is al
lowed to dry for nearly a year az
ter being cut; then when it is cut,
it is cut into pieces like the sticks
Of black licorice you see in the
drug stores in lengths of from 6
inches to a foot long. Then it is
gathered and the good and sound
pieces sent to BaSsOrah. from
whence it is made up into pressed
bales and shipped to London. The
rotten pieces are used as firewood.
At London the black licorice is
made from the juice OF the licorice
plant when fresh cut and mixed
with a paste of starch to keep it
from melting in hot weather. The
dried licOrice root is shipped in
bales and in bundles all over the
civilized world. "--Cincinnati Times
