NEW ZEALAND AN IDEAL LAND
lam Hau Been Aim ost Entirely
EradicNeed.

"The best country have seen in
all my jogging about the world il
New Zealand" said Mr.. Arthur Ma
lone, of London, visiting Washing
ton, reports the Post. TT is true
that the government is almost pure
ly paternal, but it is such benevo-
lent paternalism, and the people
seem to thrive under it SO well that
there is little room for hostile crit
cism. 1t is country where pauper-
ism has been practically abolished,
and where every man who is desir-
Gus of home can secure one. The
government will not permit mo-
nopoly of land, and those who had
big tracts were forced to surrender
them SO that the poor could get
farms. l do not mean to say that
New Zealand Is paradise, or that
It's people are so far elevated above
the rest of mankind that they are
without the usual shortcomings Of
humanity, but altogether l consider
that they have as nearly perfect
system Of government az could be
devised, and that nowhere on earth
Is the status of the individual bet
ter. II your American coal fields
were in New Zealand strike would
be an impossibility, for they would
be operated by the state, pro bono
publico."

CREAM DOWN HIS BACK.
but the Duke of Fife Was Not Dis
concerted by Awkwardness
of the Server.

M. Bortsch, the caterer for the Carl
ton club, the fashionable London or
ganization much patronized by
royalty, had an amusing experience
with the Duke of Fife, son-in-law of
King Edward, while the latter was at
Savoy, says London paper II was
waiting on the Duke of Fife one even
ing" said NJ. Bortsch, "when his grace
was giving small private dinner
party In the patience-room. There
was hardly room To pass behind each
guest. The soup was Bortsch--a costly
Russian potage made from boiled Guck
and served with sorrel, vegetables and
Greenland just as l was serving it
round an accident happened. In one
hand l had plate Of soup and in the
other my cream. The duke was talk
ing earnestly TO me and so intently
did / listen to him that did not know

eous thick stream down his back. What
did | do? | made no fuss and gave no
alarm. The duke went on talking aid

or three soft serviettes and as served
his grace with each course gave him

blamed"

FARMERS IN CANADA.
Great Rush to the North w stern Ter
rhory of the Dominion In
Last Two Years.

The extent to which emigration
from the United States to the north
west part of Canada has developed
within the last lustrum is one of the
most remarkable facts in the recent
history of the dominion, says the Lon
don News. 1t is almost suggestive Of
gold rush" Lord Burghclere stated
in the house of commons recently that
last year the number of settlers from
the states was $4,000; this year it was
calculated at 100000. This would in
deed be startling if it were true. 1t
would suggest an 'outlander" problem
of vast proportions for Canada. But
the facts, though striking, are not SO
startling as Lord Burghclere indicated.
The emigration began in 1897 with a
modest total of TIP. This handful Of
pioneers was followed tie next year
by 9,119, and since then there has been
a steady increase, until the figures for
the present year, so far as it has gone,
stand at 400. We have heard much
of the american invansion" of Eng
land, but it has been the invasion of
money and methods. The American
invasion of Canada is n more serious
affair. 1t is TIE invasion Of men who
will become voters and taxpayers, and
who will permeate the country with
American sentiment and American
preferences. Perhaps the most signifl-
cant feature of the matter is that
there should be this great stream of
immigration from the states. We have
been so accustomed to regard that
land as the land of the immigrant that
we need TO revise our impressions ow
that it is becoming the land Of the
emigrant also.

EARLIEST USES OF TOBACCO.
can s-1iar in 1894 in the Form
of Snu6.

Tobacco was first used in Europe
as kind of rude antiseptic and pre-
venter of infection, and in the West
Indies, northern America and Africa
the inhaling of the dried and pow
-dered tobacco leaf was practiced long
before the herb was known in Eu-
rope, according to writer in the De-
troit News-Tribune. The same is
probably true of smoking. The use
of tobacco was introduced into Eu-
rope by Franciscan friar named
Ramon Pane, who accompanied CO.
lumbus on his second voyage to the
West Indies in 1894. He was sent
ashore at Cuba in charge of an ex-
ploring expedition, and reported on
his return that he had found the
natives shutting this powdered herb.
which they did through a short, hol-
low cane. He introduced the practice
into Europe, but it was not until
1860 that the plant was cultivated in
Europe.
Jean Nicot, who had been British
ambassador at Lisbon, began tobac-
CO growing in France in that year,
and through this circumstance the
herb got it's name nicotine. Snuff
was first used as relief from ca
tarrh and stoppages of the nasal pas
sages, and the first parsonage to
make the use of it popular was the
famous Catherine de Medici, and her
son, Charles ", also used it as a
relief from chronic headache. The
great GATHERINGS patronage caused
snuff to be called "Herbe a la Refine"
1t became enormously popular as
preventive in England after the great
plague of 1860.

WOMEN AT POTTERS' WHEEL.
Country for the Purpose OF
Learning the Art.

The newest outlet for women's en-
ergy is pottery making. The famous
lockwood works were started by a
woman, and many women are now
turning their attention to the pos
sibilities of the wheel, combined with
deft fingers and delicate fancy, in
the manipulation and designing of
clay, reports the Brooklyn Eagle.
All over the country women are
becoming interested in pottery MAX
ing. Glasses are being formed and
find enthusiastic students ready to
DIN them. Several classes are already
In operation in Brooklyn, and are Civ
ing time to the acquisition of this
practical art. A local artist, who Is
member OF one Of these pottery
classes, says:
THE work Is and will be for some
time to come crude and imperfect,
but there is so much enthusiasm man.
Tested and promise of good work
to come, that the outlook Is very
promising. It is proposed to have
courses in pottery connected with
china painting societies. This will
be great step in the right direction
for them, china painters will not be
dependent on conventional shapes in
pottery, and the necessity of the same
.design being used over and over
again, but each woman can design
and model her own pieces, and thus
give opportunity for the introduction
OF original types"
