And truly his need was great-a frac-

boat with only the rudest treatment for
his injury. A glance at the swollen limb
was enough to tell the story Of his
hours Of torture.
He was a tall. 6nealooking man, Of
middle age, with well-cut features and
4 closc-cropped dark beard. His dress,
1isordered as it was, showed him to be

SAUCES FOR TOBACCO.
Favored to Suit the Diverse Tastes
of Various Classes of Buyers.

flhNOreO TO SUIT inc diverse TASTES
of Various Classes of Buyers.
From the Boston Transcript.
All tobaccos are treated with sauces be-
fore being made up into their commercial
form. BY this means they are favored in
various ways so as to adopt them to the
tastes of consumers. The tastes of consum-
ers vary in different localities. and to
make his goods to suit is the business of
the manufacturer. Each manufacturer
has his own secret recipes, which are
handed down from father to son. Tastes
differ, even among people of various occu-
patlons. Miners, for instance, want a very
strong tobacco, with a scent and flavor
which another class would not relish.
Outdoor workers in general like a stronger
tobacco for smoking and chewing than
indoor folks
All tobaccos in fact are doctored Some
times it is done in an illegitimate way,
for the purpose of deception. Ordinarily,
however, it is honest and even necessary.
one object of IT is to make the tobacco
keep better Without such treatment 1t
would become so much dry leaves, the arO-
matte properties passing off. Nitre is added
to smoking tobacco in order to make il
burn well. The leaves intended for chew
ing are stepped in hcorice or other gum,
in order that the plug shall have the re-
quste consistency and sweetness. Mucil-
aginous substances in small quantities are
added to cigarettes tobacco so that the
particles may hold together and not fall
out of the paper wrapper. Some pipe to-
baccOs are heavily charged with perfumes
by treating them with essential oils of
rose, verbena, chronicle, bergamot, cassia,
musk, and catechu.
Ii is not true that cigarettes are COM
monty charged with opium and other in
furious drugs However, they are fla vor-
ed with essences of various plants, such
as vanilla, stramonium, coffee, Valerian
and tea. Occasionally a few tea leaves
are mixed with the tobacco. These fla
vors aresmatters of fancy and women par
ticularly select their cigarettes with refer
ence TO them. Scarcely a plant that will
yield an agreeable haVoring escapes en-
ployment by the manufacturers of tobac-
co. Among the most used are the lemon
the orange geranium, sassafras thyme
anise mint and cinnamon. Honey and
maple sugar are utilized for sweetening
A decoction of hay is sometimes applied
to smoking tobacco.
The basis of sauce is nearly always
some spirituous Nquor-usually rum.
Sometimes wine is used. Glycerine is a
common ingredient. More or less molas-
ses enters into the composition of much
plug tobacco. The rum preserves the to-
! bacco and adds to the flavor of the plug
| The plug trade for the United States navy
is large, and it is required by the govern
ment that the tobacco furnished in this
shape for the use of its sailors shall con-
tain no foreign substances, except lin
tied percentage of Hcorice. The tobacco
leaves are dipped into the sauce or else
sprinkled with 1t.

THE POOL OF SLOAN.
Some Results of Recent Excavations
at Jerusalem.
From Public Opinion.

From Public Opinion.
The excavations which are being made
in Jerusalem have disclosed much that
was hitherto unknown about the pool of
Sloan. The identification of the site of
this pool is important. because of its bear
ing on the situation Of the city walls. 1t
has hitherto been considered that the pool
of Sloan, shown to every visitor to Jeru-
salem, was one of the few undisputed To-
calities in the topography OF the sacred
city. Now, however, as inyes tigation pro
crosses, doubts have been raised on this
point. Among psychologists contest has
arisen as complicated as that concerning
the site of Calvary, the sepulcher and
other sacred places . in Jerusalem The
pool of Sloan Is in size the least of an
the Jerusalem pools, which from the most
ancient times have been relied uDon bv
the inhabitants to store up water from
the springs. 1t had, however, the sine,u-
lar charac teristic of suddenly increasing
IN depth as the water poured in from
some unknown source.
The pool of Sloan, although small in
size, played an important part in the sa-
cred history Of Jerusalem. 1t was to ST.
loan that the Levite was sent with the
golden pitcher on the last and great 6ay
of the feast of tabernacles: il was from
Sloan that he brought the water which
was then poured over the sacrifice In
memory of the water from the rock of
Rephidlm. II was to this Sloan that the
Lord pointed when he stood IN the temple
and cried, If any man thirst let him
come unto me and drink" The Lord
