QUEEN ELIZABETH AND MONEY
Her Efforts to Produce an Honest Currency
The Mint Sickness.

Her Efforts to Produce an Honest Currency
The Mint Sickness.
To the underlying credit of Eliza
beth, she made a most strenuous effort
to reform the state of the money Of
this country. In 1860 she issued proc
lamation wherein she declared to her
subjects that she had never gained
anything upon her coinages, neither
had she coined any base money, and
that she was determined to recover the
'honour and reputation of the singu-
lar wealth that this realm was wont
to have above all others" According
", the Tower mint was commissioned
to receive base money, and in twelve
months about three-quarters of mil.
lion pounds current value were coined
into money of proper weight and
standard.
The fumes from melting these base
coins were so poisonous that many OF
the workmen fell i'll. The medical aus
thorities of that day prescribed po-
tion from dead mans skull as a GER
tain remedy. Accordingly, an official
warrant procured some of these strange
cups from London bridge, and the
draught was administered. 1t is said
to have afforded temporary relief, but
many died, whether because the skulls
were traitorous in death as well as in
life history does not relate.
About this time new mode of coin
ing by means of the mill and the screw
press was introduced from France by
one Eloye Mestrell. The method was
approved by the queen and her coun-
Gil; indeed, it has been said that the |
first milled coin was struck in the |
tower by her own royal hand. HoYr

THE VANILLA ORCHID.
How the Plant Is Cultivated in Mexico and
Other Countries

Other Countries
On the verge of the ice-cream sea-
son, which consumes many hundred
tons of'vanilla beans, few persons stop
to think of the years of preparation
necessary to supply enough of the
flavor without which the dainty dish
of the summer girl would be as moth
ing. From the time the plant is first
placed in the ground until the bean is
ready to be converted into sizup, near
ly four years elapse; years of constant
watching and delicate care. No COM
mon agriculturist can raise vanilla
beans. Most of the big planters in
Mexico, Peru, Guiana or Reunion are
cultivated gentlemen.
The plant is generally set in young
wood where the long tendrils of the
vine will have good shade and at the
same time good support in the shape
of young saplings to which to cling.
The vines bear fruit in three years
time and die off when about seven
years old. After the beans are ripe
they are submitted to a delicate drying
process which takes months. The
beans are spread out on blankets in the
sun for several hours a day. After
they have absorbed sufficient heat the
blanket is rolled around the beans and
the drying process is continued through
the day. At night the beans are put
into boxes and sweated.
This is in fine weather. If the sea
son be rainy, as it may often be in the
tropics, artificial heat is substituted
for the rays of the sun. The ripe fruit
has no odor. This is special quality
which it develops with fermentation. If
the beans are to be grown in treeless
country the planter must raise trees
before planting his vines, as their pro-
lection and support is absolutely
necessary. In Mexico the harvest is
in December, and it is in early spring
that the importations are made in
this country in anticipation of the big
summer trade. The vanilla plant Is
an orchid and its fruit is improperly
called bean.-Boston Herald.

Cleaning the Sickroom.

A siokroom that needs cleaning may be
made fresh and sweet without sweeping
and without dust by wiping everything,
carpet included, with cloth wrung out OF
warm water in which there are few drops
of ammonia. There should be no rugs and
draperies, but if there are put them on a
line outdoors to air and wipe in the same
way. Never dust with feather buster,
which only changes the locality of the
dust. There may be germs of disease even
in innocent looking dust. A screen may
be placed in front of the bed if the patient
is nervous. Physicians say that using a
kerosene lamp, with the wick turned low,
causing IN i'll smelling gas, is sometimes
the cause of diphtheria.
