The First Use of Tea.

By whom or when the use of tea
for drinking purposes was first dis
covered Is lost in antiquity. 1t Is
spoken of as famous herb in Chi
nese literature as far back as 1000
years B. c.. at which time its cult
walton and classification were almost
as thorough and complete as they are
today. One of the ancient legends
says that its virtues were accidentally
learned by King Shen Nung She, the
Chinese monarch who is also knowa
as The Divine Husbandman, whom
the record says fiourished 40 centu-
ries ago. He was engaged in boiling
water over fire made of the branch
es of the tea plant and carelessly al
lowed some of the leaves to fall into
the pot.
The liquid which he expected to
come from he vessel simply as steril-
lied waite was miraculously con
verted into an elixir of life by the
accidental addition of the tea leaves
Soon after, it became highly esteem
ed in all the oriental cities and was
used as a royal gift from the Chinese
monarchs to the potentates of south
ern and western Asia.
This same King Shen Nung She
not only earned the title of respect
by which he was known through the
discovery of the virtues of tea. but
because of oeing the first to teach his
people how to make and use plows
and many other implements of hus-
bandry.-St. Louis Republic.

purposes. A good many business men
of all shades of political belief are
strongly of the opinion that the mark
ing of foreign goods has net only failed
to help British traders and manufactur-
ers, but has done them serious harm
Foreign customers receiving goods from
English shippers marked in accordance
with the act with the words, "Made in
Germany" etc., forthwith proceed to
save the English middleman's commits
sion by dealing directly with the Ger
man maker, and so ON, whereas in the
good old days they assumed such goods
to be of British make.
Virtue is therefore very far from
being its own reward. Furthermore, ac-
cording to an indignant merchant who
has been writing to a newspaper, the
enormous quantity of goods which for
merly came into England in English
ships does not come here at all now, being
shipped abroad direct in foreign vessels.
In fact, says this critic, the present law
is protection which protects no Eng
lish industry and only serves to adver-
tise throughout the world the manufac-
lures of other countries. New York

THE QUEEN INDIGNANT.
She ContradIcts the Statement That Her
Granddaughter Is Sick Woman.

1t very rarely happens that the queen
condescends to take any notice of pub
lished gossip respecting members of the
royal family. The fact that she caused
to be telegraphed from Balmoral in the
daily Court Circular an emphatic con-
tradiction Of the report that the Prin-
cess Alix of Hesse, recently betrothed
to the czarOwitz, was taking the wa
ters at HarrOgate in order to cure
long standing internal complaint proves
beyond question that her majesty was
deeply moved and highly incensed at
the audacity of a newspaper scribe in
daring to suggest that her granddaugh-
ter's constitution is unsound. The
queens irritation as a grandmother and
q matchmaker is natural and under
standable. The czarowitz is himself a
weakling, and if it should prove to be
true that his affianced brides health
had been undermined his big burly ia
ther would beyond doubt break off the
match. The probability is that there is
nothing organically wrong with the
young princess, but it is absurd for the
queen to declare that the report of her
ailment is absolutely without founda-
tion." The Westminster Gazette, which
gave prominence to the original report,
flippantly remarks with regard to the
contradiction that "any allusion to the
indisposition of any royal person ap
pears to be considered at court as
species Of treason, the court preferring
that the ailments of such personages
shall be ignored until the rattles are in
their throats, and when the sovereign
CT prince or princess happens to be dan
gerously i'll the public are always in
formed that the invalid is going on
favorably, although, as matter Of fact,
he or she is at that time going as fast
as possible to the grave"
The Gazette then affirms that Princess
Alix has been in delicate health for sew
eral years past and that she has under
gone "cures" at Badnauheim, Schwal-
bach and other places. The Gazette sug-
gestively adds that the princess would
not have buried herself at small York
shire watering place at the height of
the London season if 81 iie were in perfect
health. This is certainly the popular
view, and the prevailing skepticism is
not likely to be removed until an au-
thoritative statement shall have been
made as to the nature of the princess
malady.-London Letter.

Lemons In Summer.

In hot weather a lemon sherbet or
water ice is refreshing and Wholesome.
The juice of an orange is a great addi-
tion to this ice, and the proportions may
be varied. Four large, juicy lemons
make quite quantity when an orange
is used. Peel the yellow rind of the lem
ons very thin, and from the orange also,
and put to boil in a porcelain saucepan,
with Il pounds of sugar and quart
of water. Boil five minutes and set
away to cool. When cold, strain into
the lemon and orange juice. Strain the
whole into tie freezer and freeze until
stiff; then take out the beater and the
whites of three eggs beaten to a stiff
froth. Beat well togethers, cover close
ly or put into mold, repack and set
away to harden. n.-Philadelphia Record.

A Novel Pack of Cards.

A pack of cards were displayed for
sale in a certain window awhile ago
which were really very curious and in
teresting. The kings and queens were
veritable personages, as were the naves,
who figured as crown princes of modern
history. The queens of Spain, Italy and
England made three of the face cards,
while there was pretty compliment to
our own "reigning sovereign" in max
ing Mrs. Cleveland queen of hearts

attacked children playing in the fields.
The children raised an alarm, and the
snake was killed. 1t is not so large as
the snake killed on the banks of the

same species and is said to be poisonous.
