COREA LIKES CIGARETTES.
Were Substituted When the Reform
ers Weaned These People from
Their Long Pipes.

Corea had reform period following
the China-Japan war, and among the
new ideas brought in by the reformers
was the cigarette. 1t was not intro
duced so much on its own account as
because OF the accidents that have be-
fallen smokers of the long pipe. Co.
reans are great smokers. Men, women
and children of high and low degree,
and no degree at all, begin smoking in
early life, and keep it up till they are
gathered TO their fathers. The Coreans
grow their own tobacco-that is, they
import none in the leaf-and every
farmer and gardener has his own little
patch, good enough when growing, but
which he spoils in the curing-that IS,
from the American point of view. The
Corean pipe has a brass bowl of ordi-
nary size, with a brass stem mouth
piece. Intervening is a hollow reed
stem of from one to four feet in length
In working, the common people use
short pipes; but they, like all the rest,
affect the long-stemmed pipe when
they can, for the sake of GOODNESS and
the look of it.
Now, these long pipes can be smoked
with safety and comfort when sitting.
Accidents have occurred often from
persons falling with long pipe in
their mouths, the stem of which is
driven down the throat, through the
cheek or into the soft palate.
The reformers of the postwar period
got an order issued forbidding the use
of the long pipe by the common people,
and the short foreign pipes came into
favor. But more than all, the foreign
cigarette made its popular entrance
into Corea. The order became a dead
letter after awhile, but the short pipe
and the cigarette stayed.
At the palace American cigarettes
are used exclusively, and large quanti-
ties are consumed. This makes them
popular with the higher classes. These
also sell for four cents, silver, for ten
The American cigarettes retain the
American names. Some English cigar
cites are kept, and Russian and Egyp
tian brands are kept for the European
population.
There is a 90 per cent. duty ad val
orem on cigars and cigarettes. The
importations for 1897 were third
more than those for the year before,
and it is believed that the record for
this year will be as great.-N. Y. Press,

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

Ninety-two flour mills in North Caro-
lima grind all the wheat grown in the
state.
Coal production in New Mexico for
the fiscal year 1897 and 1898 was $685.
5S3 tons, an increase in production of
1885, 44 tons.
A new scientific expedition to Central
Asia is being furnished by the Imperial
Russian Geographical society in Kasan.
The conduct of the expedition is en-
trusted to Prof. Sorolin.
One of the most remarkable things in
yellow fever is the slowness of the pulse
in convalescents. 1t will be found at
times as low as 40, and even as IS, re-
naming so for days together.
The wild horses of Arabia will not
admit a tame horse among them; while
the wild horses of South America en-
deavor to decoy domesticated horses
from their masters and seem eager to
welcome them.
The dryest of all fishes is, perhaps,
the river eel, yet, according to an analy-
sis by German chemist, 60 per cent. of
its substance is water. Salmon comes
next with ola per cent. HOLSTERS and
oysters are four-ffths water.
1t has been found that the moss of
the tamarack swamps in Minnesota is
as good as that of the south for uphol-
sterers' use, and there is promise of an
extensive industrial development in the
preparation of the new commodity.
The sea-cucumber, one of the curious
jelly bodies that inhabit the ocean, can
practically efface itself when in danger,
by squeezing the water out of its body
and forcing itself into a narrow crack,
so narrow as not to be visible to the
naked eye.
Soon the Natural History museum at
South Kensington, London, will have
on show the new ichthyosaurus, found
in quarry at Stockton, near Leaning
ton. The head and body proved ex-
tremely difficult to get out of the hard
las, but at last the creature had been
extracted in nine sections. About 10
feet in length, it is very fine specimen
of the old fish lizard, showing the four
paddles, the head on the long craning
| neck and tail.

THE HOSE LEAKED.
But 1t Was Fixed That Way and
Did Its Work as Well as
Desired.

81 have never had any kind of
sprinkler but that" said Mr.. Subur-
banton, referring to a line of what
seemed to be very leaky hose that was
laid around on his lawn, scattering
water in all directions; mo spraying
MOBILES, no twisting sprinlders, no
nothing, not even pipe on the hose.
| had ideas of my own about sprink
ling lawns, and when l came here put
'em into use.
81 bought hose enough, as you see,
to go quite around the lawn, and, in
stead of having pipe on the end of it,
plugged the end up. Then at regular
intervals along the hose, l cut little
Sits to make it leaky. l had first Sc
cured to the hose what l call feet lit
tie strips of wood fastened to it cross
wise to keep the hose in one position,
that is, with the same side uppermost.
The Sits were cut so that they would
throw spray, some of them on one side
and some on the other. In use the hose
is laid around at such distance from
the border of the lawn that the spray
side of the top of the hose just reaches
the border; while the spray from the
series of leaks along the inner side
just covers the square inclosed. All L
have to do is to lay the leaky hose and
turn on the water.
THE first time | had the hose out, a
day or two after we had settled down,
d neighbor of mine came along, stopped
and said:
"'H-m. Your hose is leaking lit
tie? Just a little?'
And 1 said yes; it did seem to be
little bit leaky, and the next morning
my neighbor found the leaky hose out
lust the same, and on the next morning
il struck him that the spray from it
made a complete canopy over the en-
tire lawn, sprinkling every part of it
perfectly.
Nov, as you will discover when you
go out in the morning, there is not in
all this town in use spraying nozzle,
a flower pot sprinkler, or whirligig.
Every body here has adopted the leaky
hose system, and, as to the results,
think you will say, as you look through
the town, that you have seen no other
place where the lawns were SO uni
formly green and beautiful.-Chicago

Ii Has Quit Eating Dogs.

Count Lii Hung Chang, the most ad-
vanced of Cinnamon, and who is once
more losing his wardrobe, no longer
takes delight in a diet of dog, but he
does not discourage others in its use.
When in London two years ago Count
Ii placed splendid wreath on the
monument of Chinese" Gordon, his
old companion in arms. A relative Of
Gordon was so deeply moved by this
act that he sent to the Chinese states
men with his compliments fine bull
terrier, a remarkable specimen of
canine breeding. The following letter
was received with acknowledgements:
"My Dear Gordon: While rendering
my best thanks for sending me your
dog, l beg to say that, as for myself,

dogs flesh, but my attendants, to
whom | have handed the creature, tell
me they never tasted anything so nice.

PROFANITY IS DECREASING.
A Very Marked Subsidence Is Re-
ported from the City of
BrOtherIy Love.

The revival of prosecutions in the
states of New York and New Jersey
directed against those who use pro-
fame language has called attention to
the fact that in the city of brotherly
| love there has been a very great de-
crease of profanity. So keen an OBJ
server as Prof. Robert Ellis Thompson,
president of the boys central high
school, student of sociological phe-
nomena, and therefore an interested
investigator, is authority for the state
ment that since the civil war no indi-
cation of the city's moral growth is
more pronounced than the subsistence
of profanity on the streets.
The report that DR.. Thompson had
made such study of the subject OF
profanity that he was able to give sta
tistics was laughingly dismissed by
him when called upon by Press re-
porter at his Gorgas Lane home,
But" he explained, Il have on several
occasions stated that | am convinced
that profanity is much less now than
it ever was. l came to the city in 81,
when mules performed the service that
horses, electricity and steam now per-
form. The old Pennsylvania railroad
station stood then where the Bingham
house stands now. Then it was by
word on the streets that a mule
wouldn't 60 unless he was cursed at.
And how they did curse in those times?
When a drayman met drayman there
was a flow of profanity until they
parted.
To-day people meet or even come
into collision on the streets, and there
may be angry words, but there is little
| profanity, very little compared with
what there would have been 40 years
ago. Many causes have contributed to
bring about better condition of af-
fairs. To my mind the most potent
factor was the religious revival in this
city in IS and SO carried on by GUM
ness, of Ireland. Mr.. Guinness was a
man of attractive personality, scholar
| ly attainments and captivating speech.
He came to this city as a member of the
esta blished church of Ireland and re-
ceived a welcome in many churches.
The people were touched by his words
and the moral life of the city was i'm
proved. He made no specific effort
against profanity, but from the time
he visited the country l have noticed
a gradual decrease. OF course, there
have been many other causes, religious
societies and the spread of education
and the like"
Prof. Thompson also said that, while
he was not familiar with the old laws
on profanity, he knew that some ex-
| listed in this state and in almost every
state in the union. For" said he
while it may not be the province Of
law to take cognizance of the moral
| aspect of profanity, it must be remem-
bered that he who uses profane lam
guage in public places invades the
| right of others who may be shocked
to hear it, and in that respect the law
may interpose and fine him who uses
profanity on the streets.

PIenninE the birds.

A scientist once put an automatic
musical box on the lawn, and spent
many hours watching the robbins,
bluebirds and ether birds gathering
about it. A looking glass put up where
the birds can see themselves in it, is
also very attractive, while a combina-
ton of a musical box and looking
glass pleases the birds more than any
thing else one could put out for their

Her Praises Sounded by Rev. A. d.
Harmon at First Church.
The five churches on st. Anthony hill held
Thanksgiving service together in the First
M. E. church. Rev. A. D. Harmon preached
He took fer his text the two words, Jehovah
Jireh, ''The Lord Will Provide"
He did not believe in men talking Of the
return OF the seasons, the suitable weather
and the productions of the crops as the prod
uct Of natural law" They were the abid-
Ing demonstrations of the personal love Of
God to His creatures. Men In this day should
give thanks for the culture of the nineteenth
century. They enjoyed the sum total of all
the learning OF all past ages. The world was
not growing worse. but better. This day was
the best day OF the best month Of the best year
Of the best century in the history Of the world.
For the place in which Americans lived they
salem of civilization. The thought and genius
OF this country eclipsed that of any other.
For the humane feelings of the nation
men should give thanks. In the recent war
America had shown how she was the reliever
of the oppressed as in former ages she had
shown how she was the reltever or the
enslaved Of the earth.
In the last six months the nation had taken
a first place among the nations OF the world,
not merely because she had made herself
tories in the glorious cause for which she
fought.
There were many individuals on Thanks
giving day who might be groaning over mis-
fortunes but the msfoFtunes which seemingly
came from God and were not mans own
doing would always work together for
good" and before the end Of the year it
might be. that those who felt most heavily
burdened by misfertunes might be ready to
say with Abraham, Jehovah Jireh."
