row neck for Il chimney, is set on n fire
OF dry palm nuts. No other fuel will do,
for the fumes have Il peculiar value, CO.
aSulatin!; the milky sap into Il substance
like yellow cream.
The molo workman pours the sap over
the blade "i Il sort of wooden spade and
twirl$ tins swiftly i'll the fumes till it be-
comes solid and ittainS peculiar color.
So he adds layer upon layer till the rub
Der form grows to the needed thickness.
wien 1t Is cut away from the sides and
suspended in the sunlight. The effect is
to make the substance evenly brown
and solid throughout. y common shape
OF the prodnct in the Para market is the
bottle prepared by pouring the caout-
chonc sap over an carthen mold with an
open neck. These rubber bottles are
often ornancnted while the rubber is
yet soft by the rude native artists with
outlines Of birds, beasts, plants, human
creatures Il d even landscapes.
Some OF the mojo women are ex-
ceedingly beautiful, brown Venuscs, who
would stagger the piety of ST. Antho-
ny. An interesting romance had its be-
ginning at lie of the principal rubber
stations on the Madeira few years ago.
The younger son of an English baronet,
abroad seeking his fortune, had connect
ed himself with aleading rubber firm in
Para, and had occasion to visit the
caoutchouc districts. He became infat-
uated with the daughter of mojo la
borer, who had superb face and figure,
as beautiful and soulless rs jaguar. He
took her with him down to Para, and
thence to England. and it was afterward
asserted that one of the divine padres
hao actually pronounced the blessing of
holy church over them. Be that as it
may, the death of the elder brother in
the hunting field left the cadet the heir,
and he, too, soon paid the debt to nature.
SO the brown skinned baby Of a savage
mother became possible successor to one
of the best estates and lineages in Devon
shire, could the fact of the marriage be
established.
The woman fell in with q Portuguese
adventurer in London. He pushed the
claims of the child to the baronetcy when
the old man died, and there was bitter
fight in the English law courts, based on
a certificate Of marriage which purport-
ed to have been signed by the Brazilian
padre of the little settlement 500 miles
away from the coast in the Amazonian
forests. The suit ended in defeat of
the probable imposture, but it was a
very narrow shave. Here was a story
such rs Mis- Braddon might have wished
for one of her novels. and a good many
such queer social entanglements are
talked about in the gossip of the Para
rubber market S. L. F. CUTLER.

which makes Para what it is is in the
hands OF few people, who constitute a
sort of syndicate, and the top sawyers
roll up fortunes very rapidly. There is
good deal in the caoutchouc industry
worth sketching in its salient points.
Caoutchauc is found in the milky
juices of many trees, but the most re-
markablc is from the cachucu of Brazil
and Central America. The valleys of
the great streams here are marked by an
overpowcring beauty and swarm with
countless varieties of animal and vege-
