MAKING sILHOUETTES.

some Instruction In the Art Of PrOduc-
Ing These Old Time EaVorItes,
Even in the enlightened days when
the art of photography has advanced sc
very near to perfection there are still
some old fashioned people who cling
with fondness TO these silhouettes One
great thing in their favor is that the
least clever among us may, with little
patience and a steady hand, find in them
q pleasing recreation and soon become
adroit in their execution. But there
may be come of our young readers who
scarcely know what a silhouette is, and
such unenlightened persons we will en-
deavcr briefly to instruct in the almost
forgotten art. A few sheets OF drawing
paper, pencil and q lamp are all the
essentials needed to commence opera
tons
The operator first fixes sheet of pa
per 70 the wall by inserting q pin in
each corner. Then the person whose
likeness. or silhouette, is to be taken
Is seated in chair close to the wall In
such position as to throw a distinct
shadow of his profile Gas near life size
as possible) ON the center of the paper.
10 secure seeaGlnesS wine glass or
some such support is placed between his
head and the wall-for the slightest
movement often causes failure. Having
arranged these matters satisfactorily, the
operator proceeds to sketch with PEN
Gil the head and profile of the sitter,
and this requires steady hand and
some dispatch, as 1t is no easy matter
to sit IN one position for a o1eat lanOkh
of time perfectly motionless. When the
sketch Is concluded, little skill will be
needed 10 bxing the task to an end. The
operator has only with sharp penknife
to cut out the head in the line Of the
pencil mark The center part is then
thrown aside and the other paper laid
on piece of black cloth, which throws
out che features boldly, and if sufficient
care has been taken a striking likeness
will be the reward. Happy Thoughts,

HOW ALLsPIcE GROWS.
Something About the Beautiful and Fra
grant Pimento Tree

Something About the Beautiful and Fra
grant Pimento Tree.
The pimento or allspice tree is Guilt
waited In the West Indies and jamaica
This beautiful tree usually grows to a
height of about 80 feet 1t has straight
trunk, much branched above, and COW
cred with very smooth brown bark.
The leaves vary in size and shape. but
are always of dark, shining green
color. During the months of July and
August the tree is in full bloom, the
blossoms consisting Of very fragrant,
small, white flowers.
When a new plantation of pimento
trees is to be formed, no regular sowing
or planting takes place, because il is
next to impossible to propagate the
young plants or to raise them from
seeds in parts of the country where they
are not found growing spontaneously.
Usually piece Of land is selected either
close to plantation already formed or
in part of the woodland where pimen-
to trees are growing in a native state.
The chosen piece of land is then cleared
Of all wood except these trees, and the
felled timber is allowed to remain ON
the ground for the purpose Of protecting
the very young pimento plants
At the end of two years the land is
thoroughly cleared, and only the most
vigorous pimento trees and plants are
left standing. The plants come to ma
turity in about seven years.
In favorable seasons the pimento crop
is enormous, single tree often yielding
hundred or more pounds of the dried
spice The berries are picked while
green, because f-1eft on the tree until
ripe they lose their pungent taste and
are yalueless. The green berries are ex-
posed 70 the sun for week or ten days,
when they lose their green color and
turn reddish brown. When perfectly
dry, they are put in bags and casks for
expectation.
The odor and the taste of the pimento
berries are thought to resemble a com
bination of those of cinnamon, nutmeg
and cloves; hence the familiar name
'allspice. "-Philadelphia Times

MEN CAUGHT IN TRAPS.


Accidents That Have Been Caused by the
Devices Set by Hunters.
Bob Michael, one of the best hunters
and most thorough Of woodsmen in
northern Herkimer county, N. Y,
walked against q string one night and
was MORALLY wounded with buckshot.
An old French Canadian trapper above
the Saxanac lake region was setting a
IL pound steel beartrap near an old
burning one day and had both arms
caught between the jaws, and there his
body remained for weeks, being found
at last when the mice and ants had
gnawed his bones.
In Africa curious trap is used for
elephants. It consists merely of a long
blade of steel in four foot log of wood
suspended from a tree by triggers.
Whom the elephant stirs the string, the
contrivsnce drops. burying the steel be-
tween the victims shoulder blades.
Tigers are captured in India by bow
and arrow trap. A chunk Of bait is
hung on stick, below which the arrow
is aimed When the tiger pulls the bait,
the bowstring is locsened, and the arrow
is supposed to find its way into the ami
malls heart
Baited traps are not usually danger
Gus TO human life. It is when strings.
half concealed by bushes and grass, are
hung across the runways that there is
danger OF men walking into them and
having bullets, arrows or drop sticks
shot into them.
One of the odd things one meets in
forests where bears, panthers and wild
cats are found is a log house, a sort of
lean TO camp, with an eight inch spruce
stick lying over the entrance and jut-
ting off into the woods 90 or 60 feet. A
hewn plank inside the Enclosure is ar
ranged 80 az TO look like fine resting
place for foot. Beyond the plank is a
chunk of foul smelling meat. burned
honey comb or other bait suitable for
the intended game Men who use dogs
In hunting detest such contrivances, for
the animal that steps on the plank has
its back broken by the spruce stick.
Such deadfall is hard to build, but it
Is among the surest Of traps for large
game that is not shy of Enclosure 1t is
remembered of q lost and starving In
dian that he tried to reach the bait of a
deadfall and was crushed by the logs,
though not killed instantly. Other men
have had fingers crushed in mink and
marten deadfalls
Men set snares for big game, using
wire rope to encircle the beasts necks
when they venture to touch the bait 1t
is curious fact that such men some
times get leg in their own trap and
are yanked into the air by the stout sap
ling tree used as a spring pole. After a
man has dangled with his head down
ward trying to climb the spring pole
feet first for awhile and finally gets
down safely he exercises extra care

He sat at piano yesterday and
played piece after pie e. with the
touch and feeling OF an artist
To close ones eyes and listen IL
would seem as n some one inspired
had mastership over the keys instead
OF the SIMPLE blsck Georgia Negro that
plays so divinely.
Tom is only TWENTY-FIVE years old
aud comes from Forsyth, Ga. He
seems to be simple minded as we'll as

conclusion OF each piece he clape his
hands and laughs in childish delight.

OF others seems to delight him inn

mysterious gurgle in the way OF a

Tom is not only an instrumental ar

knew he could sing. His voice is that
OF the ordinary Negro field hand,
sweet and meiodious. full OF pathos
and rounded off with that inexpressi-

their voices.
Tom said, when asked to play some
piece: "I'se only been playin' To- years

None Of the crowd could play, but
when one of them whistled it the lar

He was not particularly fond of
music or did he show any ability in
that line until suddenly one day the
lady of the house played for him. and
he sat right down and played the same

CAST HIS LOT WITH BLACKS.


q white Man Who Vs. Brought In
Amsng Slaves
Take the case Of Rev. w. J. White.
the editor Of BAPTIST weekly published
at Augusta. Ga. White is a man Of in
telligence and integrity, and his ac-
count Of his curly life has never been
disputed
Briefly this is the story: A few years
before the war dark faced boy made
his appearance on large Georgia plan
tation. He was supposed to be a mulat-
TO, and when the planter died the
youngster was sold with the estate.
After the war this alleged mulatto
picked mp an education and investigated
mis- ancestry. he was not much sur
prised to learn that he did not have a
particle of negro blood in his veins. His
mother was an Indian and his father
was white man
White was not long in deciding to
cast his lot with the blacks. He had al
ways been classed with them. It seemed
20 be the will OF the Almighty that he
should share the burdens OF the negro
rare, and he made up his mind TO stick
to his old companions.
He prospered and became a leader
among the people. He has the respect
and confidence Of both races, but he has
never attempted to rise above what he
believes to be his divinely ordained
sphere. 1t is easy TO see at a glance that
this man is not a mulatto or a quad
room, for his mixed Indian and eau
casian blood cannot be mistaken but he
has no desire 20 cut loose from the ex-
slaves with whom he has spent the
best years Of his life.
Many of the white ministers of his
denomination know the peculiar facts
OF his case. and they treat him with
great consideration. Uncomplainingly
he leads bis life of self sacrifice. and his
only object seems to be the advancement
of his adopted race He married a mu-
latto and submits to all the laws and
social distinctions which separate the
two races in the south.
Few men similarly situated would
have followed Whites example AS a
rule, people of Indian and white parent
age claim to be the social equals of the
whites, and if they have Pocahontas
strain in their blood they are proud of
it-Chicago Times Herald.

My heart no language knows
And still can only yearn and ache
In silence, though il break.
But not by any speech is known
The hidden lore of deep and height
The sea has nothing but a moan,
The dark is silent, and tine light
The grandest music needs no word
TO make its meaning heard
You dwell amidst my daily strife,
A thing apart, divine,
And all that's noble i'm my life
Is incense at your shrine.
For every worthy deed I do
