BUTTONS GROW ON BUSHES.
Nuts From Which They Are Made
Greatly REESE mbre ivory.

The ivory buttons you wear do not
represent the death Of an elephant in
the wilds of Africa; your pearl but
tons were probably never nearer than
you took them to the shell of a BIZ
valve mollusk, and the probabilities
are that no rubber tree was ever tap
ped to produce the hard rubber but
tons that adOrn your OvercOat. Down
in Central America there is a fruit
producing palm that has quite meta
morphosed the button business and
formed the nucleus for one of the
most important industries in the
United States, says Popular Mechan-
les. The seed of this fruit contains
a milk that is sweet to the taste and
relished by the natives. The milk
when allowed to remain in the nut
long enough becomes indurated and
turns into a substance as brittle and
hard as the ivory from the elephants
trunk. The plant that produces
these nuts is called the ivory plant
Most of the buttons now used in
America, whether termed ivory, pearl,
rubber, horn or bone, come from
this ivory plant Thus the probable
tiles are that your buttons are made
from vegetable milk and they grow
on bushes.
The ivory plant is one of the mar
wells of the age and is rewarding its
growers with vast fortunes. The nuts
are brought to the United States by
the ship load and hauled across the
continent to the big button factories,
from which they issue forth in every
conceivable design, color, grade and
classification of button.
The ivory plant has recently been
discovered in California, but the nut
it produces in it's wild state is of in
ferior quality and will not make good
buttons. 1t is believed, though, that
with the proper cultivation, the fruit
would be as valuable as the Central
American. If so the growing of but
tons in America would become an in
dustry of importance second only tC
the growing of corn wheat and cot
ton, for everybody wears buttons.

COULD DEFY THE WORLD.
Lord Charles Beresford Talks British
and American Friendship.

LOndon.-After the luncheon which
the Pilgrims Society gave to Rear AID
mral Cotton and a number of the off =
GERS of the United States squadron at
ted Familiarity of the affair." Lord
Charles would have been delighted to
send his friends in America an express
sion of the pleasure which the visit
of Rear Admiral Cotton squadron
him and Of the ideas which a gather
ing such as that just held suggested.
However, as he in measure repre-
scented the king, he thought it would
be better not to say anything further
officially than he had already said in
his speech at the luncheon; still,
speaking entirely personally, he would
say that when an Englishman or an
American looked at the two flags
which decorated the walls of the Car
Teton hotel, where the luncheon was
given, he could not but feel proud
and happy.
so long added the commander Of
the Channel fleet, as those flags
stand together, though all the rest Of
the world were leagued against us, we
could smile
1t might almost be supposed that
Englishmen resented the use made by
the kaiser of the historic phrase
blood is thicker than water" and that
the endeavor was being made during
the visit of the American squadron in
British waters to suggest that the
kaiser had appropriated something
which did not belong to him. In al
most every speech delivered during
the festivities reference was made to
the origin of the phrase. Great graft
fication was felt therefore when Ad-
miral Cotton himself took up the
theme and on Thursday dwelt upon
that occasion on the Pei Ho River
when the British and American ma
vies stood shoulder to shoulder and

GRAIN NOT FOUND

ton Charged to Wheat
Personal PROPERTY SHOWS LOSS
Decrease of $67, 900 Shown on Books
of Assessor Mostly on Ware
house Holdings.
Personal PROPERTY SHOWS LOSS

In the book of the city assessor ap-
pear some figures of interest at this
time. The personal property Of the
city is valued at $66,917 less than the
valuation of last year, and the total
amount of property subject to taxa
ton is slightly less than the figures
upon which the last assessment was
made. The amount last year was
SO ,644,3S6, as against $3,577 469 for
1908.
This shortage is accounted for
largely by the fact that wheat in
warehouses was assessed last year
and for some reason the grain has not
been found or is not in the city this
year In one instance a man was
charged with $4,000 worth of grain
last year, while this time no grain
could be found Other cases of SIM
liar character, but with less involved
have come to the attention of the as
SCISSOR.
The fact that the total figures upon
which taxes are to be levied are small
Ter than last year will be surprise,
when it is considered that business
has expanded wonderfully the past
twelve months. and everywhere has
been activity of one sort or another.
While it is true that last year more
grain was produced in the state than
ever before it seems odd that in this
city discrepancy Of the proportions
shown should be found in the assess
Ors books. People must have sold
the grain early or had it shipped to
the terminal warehouses, fearing an
other case Of having to make a show
ing upon the books of the city assess
or, such as was made last year

SAVES HIS LIFE.
M. Santos Dumont Finds Another Use
for the Panama Headgear.

Paris.-SantOs DumOnt's Panama
saved his life last week. During one
of his excursions in the air the motor
of his air ship got out of order and a
tiny flame crept up along the ap-
paratus, threatening to ignite the
delicate fiber of the balloon. The
spectators watched hOrror-stricken.
Perceiving the danger, Santos coolly
leaned out of the basket, smothered
the fame with his Panama and con-
tinued his trip as if nothing had hap
pened.
The possibilities foreshadowed by
Santos daily balloon outings and the
plans of the Lebaudy aeronauts to
make similar trips about Paris till
Police Project Lepine and the social
ed octroi, or municipal customs au-
thorities, whose duty it is to collect
taxes, with concern. Project Lepine
already has a life saving dog, bicycle
and automobile corps of police, but
so far has not an aerOnaut corps to
regulate the speed Of balloons or keep
them on the right side Of the atmos-
phere.
The authorities for their part see
no way to prevent balloonists from
smuggling alcohol. tobacco or even
more costly and dutiable goods. M.
Lepine has already summoned certain
aeronauts before him, and the question
of requiring permits for balloon as
tensions is now under consideration.
The problem on novelties in enter
tanning seems to have been solved by
the Duchess l. Uzes when, one day
this week, after breakfast, she treated
her guests to a series of balloon ascen-
sions. The guests enjoyed this great
ly-all except one aged man, who de-
clined to go up.

Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1903-04-08

Disraeli, afterward Lord Beacons-
field, wrote to his sister when he was a
young man: "By the bye, would you
like Lady 2. for sister-in-law-
very clever, f25,O 900 and domestic? AS
for love- all my friends who married
for love and beauty either beat their
wives or live apart from them. This is
literally the case. may commit many
follies in life, but never intend to
marry for love- which am sure is a
guarantee of infelicity."
Within four years Disraeli had mar
ried, not Lady e., but the rich widow
OF Wyndham Lewis, of whom he had
written on meeting her for the first
time: "a pretty little woman, flirt
and rattle; indeed, gifted with vol
utility should think unequaled and
of which can convey no idea. She
told me that she liked silent, melan-
choly men, l answered that had no
doubt of it."
