been invested in it's culture. There
is already one tea farm in South Car

of superior quality. Last year he made

P.iladell !lia. July 16. = The North

warehouse trust for the United States

backing of S25 100000. For the past
six weeks three representatives of the
English syndicate have been in this
country examining the various plants.
They visited Chicago, Buffalo. Balti-
more, New York and Boston. An op-
ton was obtained on the biggest con-
Germ in Buffalo. -Four plants were
scooped UP in Chicago, while in Balti-
more two were successfully negotiated
for. OPP ions were received on five in
New York and two in Boston. The op-

The records of comparative meteor
ology show that in the United States
there are in year 500 hours more If
sunshine than in fair-skied Italy. and
that Spain gets more than we. But
such general statements hide many mar
ticulars, since hardly any two localities
are alike, the atmospheric conditions
being affected by every mountain, val
ley, lake or plain, and coast climates
are modified by the ocean and it's cur
rents. In southern California the an
nual rainfall rarely exceeds twelve
inches; at San Francisco it reaches
twenty-five; farther north it increases
till in Oregon and Washington il
amounts to seventy or eighty, and the
Inhabitants are jokingly said to be
web-footed.

The total value of the gifts at re-
cent New York wedding amounted to
over two million dollars, representing
an income of over one hundred thou
sand dollars year. Since custom de-
crees that these gifts be reciprocated
at future weddings in the donors fami-
lies, the pecuniary consideration is
doubled. Marriage laws in Puerto Rico
have recently been reformed by this
government, and the onerous fees
which often prevented a marriage abol-
lsneo. is there not room for reform
IN our own marriage customs, when
the gifts at a wedding set the pace for
a mode of life which most young cou-
pies are quite unable to continue with
out financial disaster?
