Sugar as an article of food was not
known To the ancicnts. Mankind has
always exhibited the greatest fondnc5s
for sweets, and from the earliest times
the demand was supplied by honey.
The royal psalmist sets up honey and
the honcycomb as the highest standard
of material sweetness. a land flowing
with milk and honey was the picture
drawn by the most ancient poets to de-
scribe an earthly paradise Romans OF
the last days of the republic, and sub
sequently of the time Of the empire.

about 1910. planted sugar canes in their
West Indian possessions, whence 1t
spread through Spanish America and
into the French province of Louisiana.
The cane was the original source of
sugar. and so remained up to the time

Time In Japan.

The japanese divide the twenty -four
hours into twelve periods, of which six
belong to the night and six to the day,
their day beginning Mt sunrise and end
ing at sunset.
Whether the day or night be long or
short, there are always six periods In
each. To attain this the characters or
numerals on the scale are adjustable.
Two of them are set. one TO agree
with the sunrise, the other with sunset,
and the four characters between them
divide the space into equal portions.
Thus when the period OF daylight Is
longer than the night the day hours
will be proportionately longer than
those at night
Another peculiarly in their scale IL
that they use only six characters, those
from four TO nine. aud these read back

A Real Christmas Story.

In a large New York business institC-
ton says the December Worlds Work.
there was an employe whose Christmas
gift a the saving grace OF individual
consideration. He was a boOkkeeper,
nearly forty years in harness, and be
had been overlooked in former years 0t
fatncss in Wall Street, except for a Gus
tomary and unvarying ten-dollar gold
piece. Several days before Christmas
last year, the office became egitdted with
rumors of an unprecedented flood OF good
fortune. The old bookkeeper tried to keep
CO I'm, but his hopes ran riot, and the day
before Christmas found him in a nervous
furry. He saw his fellow employees call
ed into the cashiers office one by onc,
each returning with a sealed envelope.
The bookkeeper waited tor his summons,
but it came not. Even the ofice-Doys
emerged, biting new gold pieces to test
them, and the roll was complete an hour
before the b~ookkkeeper summoned Cour
age to send in an iquiry whether a mis-
take had been made IN the case of Mr..
Blank, and whether an envelope had been
overlooked. The answer Was:
There is no envelope for Mr.. Blank.
but the president wishes to see him for
a moment"
The bookkeeper saw only one lnterprc-
tation. This meant his discharge for faIi-
ing efficiency. He fairly tottered into
the sanctum, a pitiful figure Of panic
I fear.

dent. Il have omitted your name in The
