a story With a Moral.

a country lad one day brought
sack ofipotatoes to the city to market,
says an exchange. He chose a busy
corner, put his sack down and waited
for the people to buy. but at nightfall
he still had his potatoes and was com
PEELED to trudge home with them
again. The next morning his small
brother took the potatoes to market.
He made four trips that day and sold a
sack of potatoes each time Instead of
sitting on the corner waiting for peo-
pie to ask what he had in the sack he
went up and down the street yelling
Potatoes for sale!'' There are some
merchants who have never yet yelled
Potatoes for sale!!'' and consequently
have disposed of very few potatoes.
There is point in all this, and it looks
much like advertising. Granite Falls

UNITED STATES TEA TRADE
TO IMPORT THE PRECIOUS LEAF
FROM NATAL.
Method of Culture and Manufacture Of
Tea in the Colony-Need of Expert
enced Manager in Process.

Consul General j. G. Stowe of Cape
Town has been studying the tea in
dustry in Natal, and points out that
Natal tea may soon come into the
United States market. If tea goes
from Natal, why not from the Hawaii
an Islands, whence the consumer
would save the duty.
OF the Clifton Tea Estate Mr.. Stowe
says:
THE picking season in Natal COM
mences generally early in September
and goes on until about the end of the
following May. The months of June,
Juiy'' and August are taken up with
digging and manuring the land and
pruning the plants. The tea is picked
by the coolies, mule carts in different
gangs collecting the leaf Men and
women are employed in the picking
process The tea leaf is taken down to
| the factory where it is weighed in
| When that it is done, it is spread out
| thinly on frames covered with hessan
| for the purpose of whitening" in a
| temperature of So to 80 degrees. In the
course of twelve hours, the leaf has
| become perfectly soft, and produces
| the same sensation to the touch as a
! silk handkerchief. The leaf is then
passed through the shoots into the ma
| chine room, where 1t is rolled the
! object of this process being to break
|
! give the leaf that peculiar twist char
acteristic of the tea seen i'm ordinary
| commerce. When the rolling is finish
ed, the sappy, juicy mass is sent down
| into the cooling chamber, where 1t is
spread out and submitted to the action
of the air at a temperature of from 60
| to 20 degrees. This Is the critical stage
in the manufacture of tea. The eye of
| the experienced manager is required,
to see that the fermentation is arrest
ed at the exact time, or the tea would
lose quality and would acquire an I'M
desirable flavor. The rolled leaf is
then passed to drying trays, in which
it is spread out thinly and submitted
to a temperature of about $50 degrees

ton and taking all moisture out of the

LENGTH OF LIFE.
Rule for Finding Out How Many Years
are Left.

According to M. I. Holl Schooling, of
Brussels, says Cosmos February 1S),
there is an old rule of finding the
length of a mans life If the present
age lies between II and Sc years. This
is the rule: Subtract the present age
from Sc, and divide the remainder by .;
the result will give the number of years
you have yet to live. This old rule was
discovered by the mathematician De
MoiVre, who emigrated to England
from France in 1865 and became a
member of the Royal Society. The
curves given by NJ. Schooling are in
teresting to examine. A first diagram
shows the chance that every man has
of living one year longer than his pres
ent age. At birth, this chance is to
/; at five years, 119 to / at ten, 512 to
l; at fifteen, 347; at twenty, POI; at
twenty five, 1885, at thirty, 100; at thir-
ty-five, 81; at forty, rs; etc. NJ Schoo-
ling affrms that his calculations show
that of 1000 individuals of 60 years,
599 will live to be 20; 100 to so years,
and II to be 30; while of 1000 homage
narians, will reach their hundredth
year. We may add that for men of
60, the average expectation of life is
l012 years.

STATUE OF GEN. ARTHUR.

The statue OF the late President
Chester A. Arthur, which~has just been
unveiled in New York, Is one Of the
best creations OF Sculptor George E.
Bissell. The monument is, in its ex-
IRENE measurement, seventeen feet
eight inches high. The bronze figure
itself Is nine feet high. Mr.. Bissell
portrays Arthur standing and in an at
titude as IL he were about to begin a
speech. Behind the figure is a Greek
chair, from which the president has
apparently Just arisen. Over one arm
of the chair Is a drapery suggesting
the toga which, as president OF the
senate, Mr.. Arthur might have worn.
The pedestal is Of gray marble highly
polished and devoid OF ornament save
for bronze wreaths on the sides. On
the front block is this inscription:
Chester Alan Arthur, = Twenty-first
President OF the United States OF
America" The donors OF the monu-
ment are eminent New York citizens.

corner of Madison Square,

President Arthur, who presided at the
White House during his term; Gen.

made an eloquent address eulogistic OF
President Arthur. At the conclusion
OF the address all in the Enclosure
