naUchets, cooking utensils. etc, pay day being usually celebrated by a feast. in which all the men got fear fully intoxicated on filthy compound called paiwarri.
 We started out every morning imme, diately after breakfast. The Indians were armed with bows and arrows and blow-pipes. The collector divided them into sections and sent them off into the bush himself accompanying one group, but without doing any shooting l fastened on to a man and boy, and kept close in their wake all day. With the skill of denizen of the woods, my man did not walk step without rous' ing feathered creature of some sort. Sometimes large bird-a toucan or a maeaw-would flap elumsily out of 8 bush, and the twang of the bow-string would announce it's death. Small birds fiuttered across our path constantly and these were promptly brought down with the pipe Now and then a flight Of a score or two would suddenly settle all over in the branches about oul heads. and on these occasions the In. dian managed to kill dozen or so be- fore they appeared to realize their dan. ger. It was kill, kill, kill, without a moments pause. As the birds fell the boy secured the bodies and dropped them into long wicker basket, which was strapped across his forehead and hung down his back.
 On our return to the village the men were coming in and emptying their baskets on to long table in the mid de of the Englishman's hut. Many ot the birds were of the most brilliant plumage; but there were hundreds of birds, not boasting any brightness oi color, that were of no use. The slaugh- ter, in fact, is much greater in regard to the birds that are not wanted than those which reach the English market. The collector, stripped to the shirt and with his sleeves rolled up, set to work at once, going through the game. He handled every bird, dropping those pretty enough for a bonnet or valuable enough for a collection into one heap, and the useless ones into another. Not more than one bird in ten was retained; the rest had been slaughtered useless ly. When Ireproached my friend with this wanton waste of feathered life, he replied that he could not attempt tc kill the birds himself, and it was i'm possible to get Indians to discriminate between valuable and worthless speci' mems. s.-Cassell's Saturday Journal.

New Material Which Is We'll Adapted
 to Linen Embroidery.

A New Material Which Is Well Adapted
 to Linen Embroidery.
 Since linen embroidery has been SC much the fashion, it seems that every sort of linen, from it's finest to its coarsest degrees, has been used, but until recently only the plain linen and no fancy weaves have been called into use. Now new material has been in, troduced into the realm of fancy work. This is hucka buck, and for the em- broidery fine piece, evenly made, is required
 Everyone knows that the prominent patterns in hucl1abuck are the three parallel threads which rise little from the rest of the cloth. Use a fiat embroidery needle, and any colored or white washab ble silks, and darn under the three threads, leaving the silk threads loose to be prominent.
 One stitch, and perhaps the prettiest one, is that in which after darning un- der group of three, you take as your next three group in the next column and one back. In this stitch you work in a diagonal line, but by continuing you will find that it comes out even,
 This alarming was introduced at first to make simple and easily cleaned neck. ties for girls summer outing costumes, and they are very pretty for gentle. men, to go with tennis or other rath- CT negligee suit.
 But from this beginning a varied line of embroidered things has sprung up, in all of which the darning is em. ployed.
 Very pretty and cool-loohing pii. lows, for use on rattan couch or in a summer house, have the white huclza. buck alarmed in with cool shades which form a decided contrast, or with white, which, as the front may be easily washed, and the back, too, if hucka- buck is used for the whole, can be kept very bright and fresh looking.
 Then come bureau scaffs. dressing table mats, table covers, and anything for which linen has been used.
 The prettiest finish for the embroid- cry is plain undarned hem, as hucka- buck does not hemstitch well.
 The work is quickly done, and is a fascinating kind of fancy work.
 Since it is done easily and it is not especially trying, it is pretty bed GOV ering and especially for a single bed all draped in white it is dainty adorn- ment. Boston Herald

will go to be present at the big fair
which occurs there once in sixty years,
and at which every subject of the
great empire tries to be present.
Hundreds of thousands, maybe mil
lions, of Chinese from all parts of the
empire and the world will be there"
says Interpreter Pom Sc, of San Fran
cisco. "Al nations will be invited,
and everybody ought to go, for it will
be sight of lifetime" The fair, he
says, was founded many centuries ago,
and has been regularly since. He is
not sure of the exact date, but it is
within two years. Great preparations
are being made for it all over the en-
pire, and announcement of it will soon
be made to the world.
