Our endurance would be tested to
the breaking point We're our only re-
source the brick tea of Tibet. made
and favored after the true Tartar
recipe. This tea, for the convenience
of porterage on camels, is made up
in the form of hard, solid, bricklike
Jumps. which are supposed to consist
of the stems and leaves of our ordinary
tea plant But in the majority of cases
brick tea is merely the offscourings of
the tea plantation, together with dust
and adulteratlon of endless other
plants. There is little of the crisp
curly tea leaves to be found in these
Jumps.
When tea is to be made, pieces are
Clipped off the bricks and immersed
in boiling water. The result is dark,
strong favored liquid, with harsh I'M
pleasant taste. One merit alone it pos
sesSes-it is undoubtedly stimulating.
The favor CT the tea is not improved
either TO our taste by the additions to
it which the Tartar favors Instead
of cream and sugar. mutton fat and
salt are usually considered the correct
things to add, and it can readily be
imagined that the beverage thus pro-
duced does not present any particular
attraction to Englishmen.

an italian Who Demanded Music of
the street Car Conductor.


the Street Car Conductor.
The conductor of Brooklyn trolley
car had peculiar experience with an
Italian one night last week. The
italian wanted to ride with music
thrown in for his cents. A passenger
described the incident:
81 boarded the car with six other pas
sengers, including an Italian, at the
suburban end of the road on one of the
late trips. The car had gone a short
distance when the conductor began to
collect the fares. The Italian was on
the rear seat, and his money was col
lected last. Everything went well for
about half a mile, when the Italian
jumped to his feet and waved his
hands at the conductor The conductor
went to the excited man and asked him
what the touble was. The Italian
said
Me wanta my fya centa back
"The conductor told him that he
could not have the money The italian
insisted
Every boda getta music for a fva
ceata: me no got
"The conductor grasped the situation
at once, and, seeing that he was ac-
cused Of nickeling, started to clear
himself He showed the Italian that
there were seven passengers on the
car ana that that number Of fares We're
reg.s red. He also explained why the
Itali y did not get any music for his
nickel He said:
While collecting the fares in the
front part of the car rang up one
fare TOO much, and if l rang up yours /
would he out > cents
While this explanation was going on
the man from Italy was still shouting
for his fiva centa, and did not stop
until le got off the car farther down,
