SOlu.
Champagne corks consume the bulk Of
the finest cork that reaches the market.
They cost a cent apiece wholesale. This
is because they have to be cut by hand.
Ordinary cork that is intended to be cut
by machinery is first softened by steam
SO that it may not take the edges off the
revolving knives. Cork thus treated
does well enough for common purposes,
but it has lost its elasticity and does not
make shoppers tight enough for cham
payne. The cutting of cork by hand is a
trade requiring much skill and long ex
perience. The knives employed are so
quickly dulled that they have to be
sharpened constantly by the cork cutter
as he works. The great champagne houses
often engage the entire output of cork
tugal. In those countries this business
occupies whole villages. Agents from
the factories and export firms of Seville
and Lisbon go through the villages each
year, buying up enormous quantities of
cut corKs of all sizes and qualities. They
are sorted in the cities and done up in
bales for expectation.
Corks vary SO much in quality that the
price runs all the way from 2 cents to IS
gross. Much Of the finest bark is turned
into shoppers for medicine bottle. All
corks, except pickle, mustard and sauce
oorks, are cut across the grain of the
wood, so as to prevent the pores from be-

The Proper Way to Sit.

Hills Journal of Health declares
that proper sitting position requires
that the spine should be kept straight,
and that the support needed for the up
per part should be felt in the right
place. Therefore, sit as far back as
possible in the chair, so that the lower
end of the spine shall be braced against
the back Of the seat. If this back is
straight, the shoulders will also rest
against it; if not. they will have no
point of support, and 1t will be found
that they DO not need il. This position
makes no strain upon the Iigaments of
spine. 1t allows proper position for
the shoulders, consequently of the
lungs, stomach and every other organ
of the body. The work is carried on
naturally and comfortably, as is also the
circulation of the blood, which, in a
wrong position, is seriously affected.
