Native Rubber Gather
ers Are "Shrewd,"
Not to Say Downright
Dishonest.
Combination Talk as II Is
Heard.

The receivers of raw gum at the vari-
GUS rubber factories are often treated
to novel examples of the strategy en-
ployed by the native gatherer of the
sap. The South American gum comes
to the rubber factory in huge irregular
masses nearly round and about the
size OF good sized football Before
the gum can be worked it must be
chopped into chunks about the size of
q mans two fists, and the variety of
articles which dull the axe of the chop
pers is almost infinite.
The gatherer of the raw gum sells the
stuff by weight, of course, and any
thing that he can put into the middle
of the ball to help out the weight is
so much clear money in his pocket. In
the Brazilian gum, stones, pieces Of
iron, old shirts and other foreign sub
stances are often found, showing that
the South American is almost, if not
quite as much a Yankee as his North
ern brother.
At the local rubber factories collec-
tion of these articles is often made
and the quantity that can be gathered
in a year is surprising.
African gum is shipped in smaller
pieces and there is not so much chance
for that kind of swindle as with the
gum which is produced on this hemi-
spere
The swindles of this kind for which
the local rubber companies must pay,
amounts to good many hundreds Of
dollars every year.

Fond Du Lac, Wis, recently fur
nished to the world two remarkable
instances Of longevity. Mrs. JOS
ephine Beausan Of that town was
announced last August as the oldest
woman in the Badger state, If not in
the United States. According to
records vouched for as being correct
she was 100, and her death has not
yet been reported. She wac born
in Canada in 1850. In November
Mrs. Charity Jane Robinson, in Ter
lO3d year, died in the same town.
Both these women were character
lied through life by vivacity, cheer
fulness and slight physical proper
tions. They seem to have no set
rule Of longevity, but came of long
lived ancestors. A notable peculi-
arity of women centenarians is that
they usually are of small stature.
Mrs. Angelina Galspeau, Of North
ampton, Mass, who died in De.
cember, in her l06th year, was a
little woman who had been married
four times and had reared a large
family. She was remarkably Wig
orous and vivacious, and even in
her latest years could see to read
and knit without glasses.

Among the Fresh Air" children
who arrived at farm near Pitts
field, in the Berkshire hills of Mass
achusetts, one day last summer,
was a poor little tot who, as she was
lifted from the wagon, caught sight
of field OF daisies. With q cry of
delight she darted to the rail fence
the moment she was set down, and
scrambling under it, threw herself,
face downward, among the beauti-
full white-and-gold blossoms, clasp
ling them in her arms and sobbing
as il her heart were breaking. She
bad never before seen flowers grow
ling. During her stay she spent all
her time among them, and when
the moment came to pack her shah
by little bag it was found to be
Ifilled with flowers. A touching
poem about this pathetic incident,
'sThe Fresh-Air Child" by Elliot
Walker, is published in the August
number OF The Ladies Home Jour

this is not due until September. From
