Prof. TAFT, of Edinburgh, after hav-

noyed him by taking to the bagpipes,
was troubled by an amateur elocution-
ist in the house. One day, the story
goes, when the house was filed with
oratory, yolley of explosions came
from Tait's room, followed by smoke
and unearthly smells. The lessons in
oratory were suspended, and everyone
in the house collected to find out what
the trouble was. TAFT, with unmoved
conscience, said to the landlord: "As
there seems to be no restrain on the
nature of the studies pursued in these
lodgings, l have begun series of ex-
periments in high explosives, from
which / expect to draw much advan-
tage." The elocution ceased.

THE USEFUL ANGORA.
Its Value Is Just Beginning to Be
Appreciated Here.
Many Western Farmers Arc Now
Breeding These Charming Goats
to Clear Land and for MIX,
Hair nnd Hide.

The problem of clearing the land
from which trees have been removed
and of discriminating the persistent
growth of shrubbery has been solved
by Texas farmer, whose chief aid in
the enterprise is the goat. \ man
who has studied the subject, speaking
of the work done by the browsing
goat. said that the animal shows his
generosity by giving his relation, the
sheep. an equal share of the pasture,
and magnanimously turns over TO the
sheep all the rich and succulent
grasses. The goat also acts as the
protector of the sheep.
eve have never given the goat his
just Deserts" said the expert, "nnd
have failed TO give him credit for his
moral worth and his physical useful
ness. In Roquefort, France, the dairy
men combine the milk of the sheep
and of the goat in making the most
delicious cheese, which we import at
four times the price of our own dairy
cheese. however, excellent. We also
import millions of ltidsllins, tanned
and in French gloves, for both of
which we pay high prices, to the det-
riment of home industries"
Near Kansas City man has taken
advantage of the Texans discovery
and has started to clear up with An
CORA goats thousand acres of brush
wood.
The value Of the goat seems to be
appreciated by the residents Of the
western states. a fact which was dem
onstratcd al the fair of the American
Angora association, which took place
last month in Kansas City. About 5000
goats were exhibited. They came from
Kansas, Iowa. Texas. Missouri and
New Mexico, and among them were
some Of the finest specimens in the
country. Many people who visited the
fair had never seen an Angora goat
before. and all listened attentively to
the papers which were read on the
subject of the dainty animal and it's
habits, traits and peculiarities.
One breeder from Missouri said that
the presence of the goats in his pas
lures afforded him ample compensa-
ton for his investment in flock of
GEO or 700. "Under the foot of the

rule, an American salesman will come
to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela,
and stay between steamers-one
week. The chances are that he will
be unable to speak Spanish, and be
equally ignorant of the business
methods that obtain in the country.
AS result, he usually has the time,
labor and exepense of his trip for
nothing. The European salesman,
who always speaks the language of
the country, comes to Caracas and re-
mains two months or more. He be-
comes acquainted with the people,
and makes many personal friends.
He appreciates, what the average
American does not, that sentiment
counts for a good deal in the business
transactions of the Latin race, and
takes advantage of this knowledge.
He knows that it pays to have GUS
toners bound to him by ties of friend
ship. He secures large order and
remains away for a whole year, safe
in the knowledge that his customer
is not likely to buy elsewhere in his
dDStntt.
Venezuela has population of about
100000, but schould have five times
as many inhabitants. 1t is a large
country, with much fertile land, be-
sides enormous mineral, timber and
other natural resources. 1t is capa-
bic of becoming an important cotton
and rice producing country. In fact,
during our civil war its shipments of
those products to Europe were con-
siderable. At present its chief prod
ucts are coffee, chocolate and hides.
We are the largest buyers from Nene-
zuela, but do not sell as much in re-
turn as we should These conditions
will change just as soon as American
merchants appreciate the fact that
to do business with Latin Americans
it must be done according to Latin
American customs.

Angora," he said. "a rich carpet of
blue grass has already covered what
before was a bare, forbidding land
surface, marred by many clumps of
briars and bushy growths." These
bad places had been done away by
the goats, and the pastures had be-
come picnic grounds. This was only
the poetry of the industry, but other
speakers were equally enthusiastic in
discussing the economic points. 1t
was asserted that the Angora goat
was immune from tuberculosis. that
it's milk was consequently pure, and
that the flesh rs a food article was
wholesome, and that Angora venison
was q delicious food. Other points of
which the breeders make much are
the Angora hair, which is coming
more into demand every year, and
the tanned pelt, which is good sub
stitute for buckskin.

BUILDING UP TRADE.
Americans Do Not Seem TO Under
stand the Art.
Francis u. Loomis, Our Minister to
Venezuela. Tells why Our Mer-
chants DO Not Hold Their
own In south America.

To make sure of success in dealing
with the Latin American, every busi-
ness man should learn the Spanish
language. Every young man who de-
sires to succeed in business should
master Spanish. Trade follows n
spoken and written language more
certainly and steadily than it follows
a flag, says Francis b. Loomis, in Sue
cess.
The United States does not have
in any part of Latin America the
share of trade its productivity and
! proximity entitle it to. The Ger
mans, the English, the French, and
even the Spanards. exhibit a higher
! degree of commercial intelligence in
dealing with South Americans than
do the people of the United States,
Our merchants and manufacturers
are loath to understand that in order
to succeed in Central or South Amer
ica they must conform TO business
methods to which centuries of usage
have given the force and prestige of
national custom. If we desire to do
business with South Americans we
must, in a large measure, do business
in their way, and not try to force
our methods on them, even though
we may be convinced that our man
ner of conducting commercial affairs
is superior to those used by them.
The South American merchant is
accustomed to long credit. Six
months is the usual period, but in
some cases il is extended full year.
he will pay, but he must have time
in which to do so, for it is the custom
of the trader to act as banker as well
rs merchant. He makes large ad-
vances in money and supplies to the
owners of coffee and other planta-
tions, to enable them to pay their la
borers, and the merchant-banker does
not expect repayment until the coffee
crop has been harvested and sold.
/ As that is but once year, it will be
seen that long time in making pay
ments is necessary for the continued

Some time ago woman named Legros,
