Wealth Making bananas.

When we see a ragged European
Italian or Greek-selling bananas
across a cheap-looking curbstone stand
it seems absurd that anyone could
make vast fortune by dealing in
the cheap fruit. Owners of banana
groves, however, are often the masters
of great wealth, all derived from their
fruit possessions. This money has not
been made exclusively through the
sale of bananas. The leaves Of the ba-
mana tree are used for packing and so
have ready sale. The juice of the
tree is strong in tannin, and makes
a fine indelible ink or shoe backing.
A wax found on the under side of
the leaves is valuable article of COM
merce. Manila hemp is made from the
stems, this hemp being used in max
Ing mats, plated work and handker-
chiefs of the finest texture. Bananas
are also made into -four, which has
ready sale in some parts Of the world.
All the fruit shipped to America is
cut green from the parent palm and
is ripened by the dry warmth of gas
Jets in places Of storage where the
fruit is prepared for the market. The
island of jamaica produces enormous
crops of this valuable fruit.

the site is now marked by number OF
new and very ugly houses and mean
streets. In the year 1776 the prisoners
had to lie two in q bed, and even for
those who could pay there were not
beds enough, and many slept on the
floor of the chapel. There were 1876
prisoners; in addition to the prisoners
many Of them had wives and children
with them. There were 279 wives and
275 Children total Of 1899 sleeping
every night in the prison. There was q
good water supply, but there was no
infirmary, no resident surgeon, and no
bath. Imagine a place containing 1899
persons, and no bath and no infirmary!
Among these prisoners, about hum
dred years ago, was certain Colonel
George Hanger, who has left his me
moirs" behind him for the edification
Of posterity. According to him the
prison "rivaled tho purlieus Of Wap-
ping, st. Giles, and st. James in vice,
debauchery, and drunkenness" The
general immortality was SO great that 1t
was only possible, he says, to escape
contagion by living separate, or by
consorting only with the few gentle
men of honor who might be found
there. otherwise man will quickly
sink into dissipation: he will lose every
sense Of honor and dignity, every moral
principal and virtuous disposition"

HOW TO REACH BARLAAM MONASTERY,

HOW TO REACH BARLAAM MONASTERY.
This was the only monastery which
could be entered on foot, plank
drawbridge spanning the abyss which
divided 1t from the adjacent mountain.
"Hoodoods," or Turkish Irregular
Guards, lay in ambush near, and, on
the bridge being lowered in the morn
ing, rushed in, robbing and destroying.
Disappointed of the rich booty they
expected, the invaders proceeded to
torture and kill many Of the monks.
Indeed. in the first Greek War of Re-
yolution, all the monks would probably
have been massacred had 1t not been
for the English and Russian Consuls
at Larssa.
The remainder of the monasteries
can be entered only by means of a
rope, windlass and net, In which one
sits and is drawn up to a window
several hundred feet above, or by rope
ladders fastened against the side of
the cliff. Either method is somewhat
trying to the nerves, for the slightest
giddiness on the swinging ladders
would probably prove fatal The
monks themselves usually use the
laUueTS, anu iOOh llhc hNS Nih"i-
ing up the face of the rock. They
climb with the body bent almost
double, and hands and feet close to-
gether, monkey fashion.
The most picturesque of the old
Castles are Barlaam and Hagia
Moni, q neighbor Of st. Stephens.
Life in these Castles in the Air"
is the most peaceful possible. One is
completely cut ou from the world,
and can lie on the soft patches Of grass
outside their doors, and dream to ones
hearts content-no sound coming up
from below save the tinkling of the
sheep bells and occasional faint cries
of the villagers. The air is delight
fully fresh and pure, the sun Is warm,
and all around there stretches mag
nifcent panorama of rich plains, bril-
liantly tinted hills, and snowy mount
aims. .,,.s

An Elephants Tongue.
lIlIs|!lI

Whoever has looked inside an ele-
plants mouth has seen strange
sight. Elephants have no front teeth
and they never eat flesh or any food
that requires tearing teeth. Eight
teeth are all they have, two above and
below on each side, huge yellow molars
as wide as mans hand and about
two inches thick. Over these hay or
fodder is shifted by the queerest,
ugliest tongue in the whole animal
kingdom, tongue that is literally
hung at both ends, having no power
or movement except in the middle,
where it shifts back and forth from
side to side, arching up against the
roof of the big mouth like an immense
wrinkled pink serpent.

FRIENDS WITH MANKIND.
Animals in the Yellowstone Park Now
Have No Fear of Man.

Have No Fear of Man.
The slaughter of birds has almost
entirely removed one of the delight
full accompaniment of life in the
rural east-the music of the feathered
songsters. Apropos of this, it may
be said that one of the most pleasant
features Of the drive through the
Yellowstone National Park is the ap-
parent intimacy between man and the
animal and bird life in the park.
Thanks to the wise and stringent regu-
lations, no shooting Is allowed within
its boundaries.
The result" says an English tour
list, lis positively charming. Hundreds
of little chipmunks, with their gaudy
striped backs, scampered impudently
about or peered at the passing coach
from the roadside. The squirrel did
not bolt for the nearest tree, but nodd-
ed welcome. All bird life treated
us likewise. Even the lordly eagle
lowered near, and the wild turkey
stalked uncOncernedly through the
rank grass. We We're fortunate en-
Ough to see fine specimen of the wolf
tribe. He stood, beautiful creature,
and watched us out of sight, showing
only curiosity, not fear. Another time
we perceived doe and fawn grazing
by the road. Not until we We're with
In few feet did they seek the shelter
of the woods, yet not to fly. They
simply moved aside. Here ut least
mankind was regarded as a friend
one who could be trusted. The only
animal who ran away was brown
bear. He turned tail at the sight Of
coaching party, yet it was quite
common thing for bears to approach
close to the hotels at evening to feed
on the refuse thrown out. 1t was an
aftcr-dinner relaxation for the guests
to watch them feeding. They MUNICH
ed and disputed the choicest mOrsels,
for the most part Indifferent to the
company. Only when we became in
quisitive and approaching TOO near did
they retire; and these animals were
perfectly free and unfettered in their
movements. 1t may read like fairy
tale, but 1t Is solid fact
