Machine-made shoes. saddles carriages

saying that, though Laurensville has now
its thousands where it then had it's hun

Representative Hogs, in his letter
to Binger Hermann, Commissioner of
the General Land Office at Washing
ton, very effectually argues against
Delegate Wilcox's land bill. Mr.. Hogs
is a practical man, has been engaged
in many profitable enterprises, and has
had much to do with land. His not be-
ing a sugar planter would make his
evidence the stronger. WilcOX's con-
slant cry has been that the opponents
or his law were the heartless and
Prasping sugar planters and the "black
hearted" missionaries. Mr.. Hogs is
neither a sugar planter nor is he
He is simply an indus
trious man of great energy and good
capacity who has made his home on
the Islands and has won a competence.
There are numbers like Mr.. Hogs who
are as free from missionary proclivi-
ties, and who think that Wilcox's land
act would be ruinous to the country

From the above it will be seen that
in the United Kingdom over six pounds
of tea per head of the population are
consumed Sixteen years ago the per
capita consumption amounted to APP
proXimately five pounds. There is no
other European country where such a
per capita consumption is approached.
Indeed there is no other European
country, with thu exception of Holland,
where the consumption of tea exceeds
one pound per head.
In Russia and in the United States,
which are the ether two large tea
consuming countries, the consumption
amounts to about one pound per head;
in France the total quantity of tea con-
sumed is under $500, 600 pounds, or .O6
of a pound per head of the population;
and in Germany it is 6,75O,OOo pounds
or ~ of a pound per head of the popu-
lation.
The total consumption Of tea in the
United Kingdom exceeds that of all the
other European countries and the
United States put together During
the seventeen years from 1884 to 1900
It has risen 175,OOO0OO pounds to $780,
600 600 pounds, ar increase Of AZ per
cent.
The tea consumed in the United
Kingdom is derived principally from
British India and Ceylon, the quantity
obtained from China having diminish
ed of late years not only relatively
but absolutely, being in 1900 less than
half what it was in 1898. OF the six
pounds Of tea, the per capita consump-
ton of the United Kingdom, but little
more than third of pound is Chi
nese, while about three ane one third
pounds cone from India and two and
quarter pounds from Ceylon
We get our tea from China and Jap
an and use about 600 pounds an
nually. If we could foster our tea in
dustry in our Island possessions we
might produce nearly all the tea we
need. Tea will grow on these Islands,
and tea will grow in the Philippines.
Great Britain supplies two-thirds of
ner own tea from her own colonies.
There is no reason why we should not
foster our own possessions in this in
Gustry. We shall never, perhaps be
large tea drinking nation, because cot
fee is our national beverage but we
might keep our dollars at home instead
of spending them in China and Japan.

If you want thing done, do 1t
yourself. The merchants have taken
up the question of exhibits at the St.

the results will be satisfactory. They
have not waited to see what the Gov

1t was with silent alarm that young
William Baker, the most bashful boy
On his class, noted the steady progress
of an internal pang. 1t became so
acute finally that he could maintain
his composure no longer and he cried
outright.
The gentle school-teacher came
down from her chair upon the dais,
and, placing her hand kindly upon the
boys head, asked him what was the
matter.
William only sobbed. He dare not
designate his trouble by the rude
term under which it was known to
school-boys. His better instincts told
him that such language was not suit
ed TO the ears of a lady.
But after hearing much tender SYM
pathy and hesitating profoundly, he
managed to hit what seemed to him
to be a polite phrase of diagnosis.
And he raised his fearful eyes and
said:
