Charming Holiday Gift.

A girl was going abroad to study. Her
chum. a clever New England girl. designed
a delightful gift for the traveller, which
when first seen looked like a satin port
folio. The recipient opened the package,
thinking it a handkerchief case or glove
holder or a place for wells. Instead she
found tucked away in the soft-lined,
satc~het-perfumed fold twelve long white
envelopes. each one sealed and bearing. on
month in decorative lettering: al the way
side there were legends and markings for
the events of each month: January. the
%entine: her birthday March; Easter on
May day. each with some personal refer
enCe to the layout of her own life. as it
seemed probable it was to be: In her Paris
pension life the opening of the envelope at
the beginning of each month was n glad
surprise, for inside was always some unique
and thoughtful filling-a pretty, necktie. a
veil. a pair of gloves, a set of photographs
taken at the spot they, loved SO well where
the summer was passed. 1t had taken some
thought and time and extra effort to do
this. but it was worth 1t in the pleasure and
tender appreciation it stirred in the heart
of the girl who was far away.

Tn big grain firm of C. F. orthwein &

the grain trade of st. Louis. having
watched the rise and fall of that city as
a grain market, will after January 1 con-
duct only a branch office of their business
in St. Louis. removing their main Office to
Kansas City. This stament was confirmed
yesterday by Max r. Orthwein. secretary
treasurer of the United Elevator Com
the firm name under which C. F.
Orthwein e. Sons have for nearly a year
past operated four leased elevators in
Kansas City. Mr.. Orthwein is a loyal st.
Louisan. and declined to say that the
change was made because Kansas City was
the best grain market in the country.
I'VE like to be in the m the fresh
air will do us good" he said jokingly. when
pressed to give the firms reasons for max
Ing the change. He said one of the objects
was to do away with the necessity of sup
porting two principal offices. practi,
not be conducted as a branch of the st.

that c. F. Orthwein & Sons had been ne

A TEA PLANT IN BLOOM.
Something of a Rarity in This Fart
of the World-Came From
Japan.

An importer Of teas, says the New York
Evening Post, has placed on view in his
shop window on Fulton street a tea plant
in bloom. The plant was sent to him
from Northern Japan two years ago. and
having been kept at a temperature con-
slant between 70 and 80 deg. has had.
he says. a remarkably vigorous growth.
From eighteen inches it has grown, to a
height of thirty-six. and it seems to be
fresh and healthy.
"a Poisoning tea plant is a rarity in
this Latitude" said the owner to-day. Il
have been somewhat surprised by the sue
cess with which my care has been reward
ed. My success has led me to undertake a
number of experiments in tea culture, the
outcome of which 1 am awaiting with in
terest. Tea has been grown in this coun-
try, but with small success from a COM
mercial point of view. An inferior quality
has been grown in Georgia and North Car
DINA: not only is 1t inferior in quality, but
the cost of production is, naturally. much
higher than in tea-growing countries. Tea
never has been grown, so far as I know, as
far north as New York. and it never can
be for commercial purposes"

WHY COFFEE IS CHEAP.
An Over Production and Prices Are
Certain to Re Low for a Long
Time 10 Come.

THE people can depend on 1t the present
low price of coffee is for a long time. II
is the natural result of an overproduction.
the swinging of the pendulum of SUPPLY
and demand. There is more coffee in the
world to-day than there is a demand for
and the logical result is the low price"
said Charles Shira, at the Coates House
yesterday.
Some people think the low price has
been made as the result of a fight be
tween the rival companies, but that is
wrot:E. Brazil. which is the great coffee
producing country of the world, has had
two enormous crops in succession. This
IL Unusual. one year ago the crop in that
country WAS very heavy and in spite or
an enlarged demand for the product there
was a surplus left At the end Of the season.
The season recently closed has resulted in
the most surprising crop the coffee plan
taticns have ever known. This is now
thrown on the market with the surplus of
last year still on hand. There could lie
but one result, the market must give way
under the surplus and the prices have SIM
ply gone down TO the point indicated by
an honest expression of the law of sup v
and demand. Even with a short crop for
the coming season there is so great a sur
plus that IL will dspress prices when the
new crop comes into market. People who
like good coffee will he abe TO get il II
the prevailing low price for many months
