grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bill

out the system and stop fermentation

ABOUT TEA AND COFFEE.
at the Middle of the Seven
tenth Century.

The author of "Curiosities of Litera-
ture" throws doubt upon the story that
Lord Arlington and Lord Ossory, who
were said to have a small package of
| tea from Holland in 1866, were the first
lntroducers. DisraeG states that he
has heard of collector who was in pos
session of Oliver Cromwell's teapot. An
| advertisement sets at rest the 1866 fic-
ton, and gives ground for the elder
Disrael's conjecture:
THAT Excellent and by all Physicians
approved China drink called by the
| Chineans Teha, by other Nations Tay
alias Tee, is sold at the Sultanese Head
Cophee House in Sweetings Rents, by
the Royal Exchange, London"
This is from the Mercurius Politicus
of September 80, 1853.
Tea is no longer approved by call the
physicians" The Puritans could enjoy
their cup of "tay." They were under
Cromwell, but we are under the mi
crobe. It is not we who eat and drink,
but the microbe; and as tea no longer
suits the microbe we have had to give
1t up and try him with cocoa. Had the
commonwealth continued it is probable
that tea and coffee, cocoa or water
would by this time have ousted beer
and spirits as national drinks on this
island. The Merry Monarch washed
away the temperance movement with
brown October" and French wine.
The mention of "Cophee House"
shows that coffee was well on the road
to establishment It is stated in an

q Panic Week.

During the past week the stock dealt
in upon the New York market suffered
shrinkage of one hundred millions of
dollars in price, and contrary to the
usual custom at this season of the year,
seven millions of gold was exported
from that port. The money market in
all the principal centers of the earth
is at severe tension. The reserve in
the Bank of England has fallen from
forty-two to thirty-seven per cent, and
the rate of discount is at six, the high
est figure since the Barring panic in
1880. The Bank of France is charging
four and one-half per cent for loans,
and the discounts at the Bank of Ger
many are seven per cent. Money in
New York reached the phenomenal
figure of one hundred and eighty-six
per cent one day last week. and a wide
spread and devastating panic that
would have spread universal ruin
among the dealers in that market was
only avoided by the money kings I'M

Will He Dlsgorge the Facts?

If the resolution which Representa-
tive Sulzer announces he will intro
duce in the uational house at noon, on
the Sd of January, possesses the quail
ty of getting at the facts sought. which
its author claims it does, the public
will not have long to wait for knowl-
edge of the true true inwardness of the

he violated the statutory law prohibit

demurring to the prosecution contend

higher courts have held lighthouses to
be necessities in the exemptions pro-

THE PUZZLE PARTY.
An Easy Way to Interest and Amuse
COnEenial Guests During a
Winters Evening.

The latest thing in the way of an
evening entertainment is the puzzle
party. 1t is an informal sort of an
affair, and is intended to afford a
breathing spell between dancing par.
ties and receptions. The only essen
tial is that the guests should be well
acquainted; the entertainment prac-
tically takes care of itself.
One very amusing thing is this:
The hostess asks each of her guests to
bring a picture of himself in early
childhood, and to show it to nobody.
These are passed around, and a prize
is warded to the one who makes the
most successful guesses at their iden.
tity. 1t is surprisingly hard to recog-
nize the photographs, and in addition
they are most amusing.
Then parts of the familiar advertise
ments in the magazines are passed
around, and the guest who guesses
the most gets prize. It seems easy,
but is far from being as easy as it
seems.
All sorts of mechanical puzzles, the
simpler the better, are provided, with
a prize for the guest who works out
the most. 1t is decidedly amusing to
see grown-up men and women SO en-
crossed over a puzzle that would ap-
pear to be about the proper thing for
a ten-year-old boy, that they will not
give it up till it is solved.
If the crowd is at all literary the
hostess can read aloud the titles of
number of books, and let her guests
write down the names Of the authors,
Or list of familiar quotations can be
read. 1t is surprising to see how puz-
cling such simple things are, and how
interesting such an evening can be
made with very little trouble.-Chica-
go Inter Ocean.
