A TOBACCO LEGEND.
The story of the Way In which Man
Obtained the Weed.

An ethnologist tells an interesting
story as to how tobacco was first OBJ
tained by man. according to the ira
ditions of the Mcnominee Indians:
zone day the god hero, Manubozo,
was on Il journey. when he perceived
n delightful odor. 1t seemed to come
from crcvice In the cliffs high up on
mountain side. On going closer he
found tavern which was occupied by
giant. In fact. the giant was the
tenant of the mountain, and from the
mouth of the cave passage led down
into the very center of the hill, where
there was a large chamber. Around
the chamber were stacked great quanti-
ties of bags filed with curious dried
leaves. From the leaves proceeded the
delicious fragrance.
"These leaves were tobacco. Once
year. the giant explained, all of the
spirits came to the mountain for the
purpose of smoking this exquisite
weed But Il was not possible to give
any of 1t away" said the cthnologist.
Nevertheless ManaboZo watched for
an opportunity and, snatching up one
OF the bags, fled, closely pursued by
the giant The thief leapcd from peak
to peak, but the giant followed so fast
as to finally overtake him. SO Mana
bozo turned upon him and, upbraiding
him for his stinginess, transformed
him into n grasshopper
"That is the reason why the grass
-.
Manabozo took the bagful of leaves
and distributed them among his
friends, the ancestors of the Indians of
today. Since then they have had the
use and enjoyment of the plant"

Speaking of mysterious tastes, that
of Il man who was recently before the
magistrate at Greenwich is not very
easy of explanation. Three weeks ago
a legacy of f130 was left to him. The
first thing he bought, it seems, was a
set of billiard balls, and he now has
nothing else left to show for the f130,
which has disappeared at the rate of
f43 6s. sd. weekly. Why billiard balls?
1t is singular and rather interesting
form of craving. 1t is perhaps true
that n billiard ball is one of the very
few perfect objects produced by man.
1t is all of piece, it is thoroughly ho-
mogeneous as regards material, and it
is, or should be, faultless in form. Yet
only a strong strain of mysticism in
the character would account for man
hungering and thirsting for billiard
balls above all other earthly things

YELLOWSTONE PARK.
One Meets with Natures Surprises
There at Every Turn.

Probably no area of equal extent
contains so great number OF natural
objects capable of arousing wonder,
enthusiasm and awe MS are found
crowded together In the park. Its
many sccnlc features of restful charm,
found alongside areas of never ending
activity. with weird, grotesque sur
rOundings, surprise one at every turn.
Yellowstone lake, the largest sheet of
water In America nj so high an clcva-
tion, with its indented shore line and
1i0 square miles of surface dotted
with forcstcd islands, presents TO low
crs OF nature series of picturesque
landscapes uncqunled upon any other
inland waters. The far famed falls
of the Yellowstone, with their unique
and marvellous rock setting. and the
Grand canyon, with its majestic out
lines and brilliant coloring. are worthy
of all the praise bestowed upon them
and merit separate descriptive arti-
Gle. More than score of waterfalls
and cascades, some of them OF ex-
quisltc grace and beauty, pour the wa
tcrs of mountain torrents and plateau
lakes from the uplands to the low
lands. Many of them well deserve n
visit, but their fame is obscured by
the real marvels of the Yellowstone.
Again, the fossil forests, so seldom
visited, tell most interesting story of
buried plant world, of explosive erup-
tions of mud volcanoes and the grad
ual piling UP of erupted lavas and
ashes. All these, cntlcing rs they
seem, appear insignificant when COM
pared with the hydrothermal phenome-
ma displayed In geysers, boiling
springs, hot lakes solfataras and num-
berless fumaroles, which have gained
for the park the appcllation of the won
derland of America. Unquestionably
it is this hot water treatment which
the region has undergone that has de-
veloped most of the objects Of interest
and made the park famous the world
over. Even the lake owes much Of its
attractiveness TO its hot springs and
paint pots. and the Grand canyon
would lack its brilliancy of colorlng
and its sc1lptured buttressed walls
but for the long continued action of
hot as well as cold water.-Arnold

CONDENSED MILK.
Its Discovery was brought About by
woman's Experiments.

"How and when was condensed milk
discovered?" said milk dealer "well,
that is an easy question, known to all
venders of the article.
at Glanced that in 1854 the journey
from New orleans to New York was d
considerable trip. A certain lady
Mrs. Albert Cashngor - had sick
baby, and on account of that condensed
milk was discovered
Mrs. Cashingor's baby was so III
that she realized that II would be nee
essary TO make trip to New York TO
receive expert medical attention If she
hoped TO save the cbllds life. But to
travel that long distance the child had
TO have milk. Milk wouldn't keep
fresh more than few hours. So there
she was, kept back from making the
trip merely because she could not sup
ply the child with fresh milk.
"ln her despair she began TO expert
ment to see If she could not preserve
milk the same as she did Jelly or any
thing else. She tried several different
methods and finally hit upon plan
which seemed to give satisfaction. SO
she preserved several big jars of the
stuff, put II upon sailing vessel and
made the trip. The child fed upon the
milk and was nourlshed.
''ln New York several men learned
of her discovery. They tried TO make
some of the condensed milk in the man
ner that she had told them, but failed.
They followed her to New Orleans. and
there she unwittingly unfolded her
valuable secret. On the island of Gal
weston these men started n small fac
tory. and there the first salable con-
denscd milk was made.
The woman died poor. The manu-
facturers made n fortune. Now con
densed milk is sold In every part of
the world."-Loulsville Herald.

CHAMPAGNE MAKING.
The Methods That Are Used In Pro-

1t is TO the invention of the cham

Fromm of Frankfort, Germany.
This wine is said to have been made
successfully by the butler of n monas-
terry near Eplnay. in France. In 1643.
Until the early part of the nineteenth
century sparkling wines were made
only In the French province of Cham
pagne.
Next to the wine, carbonic acid forms
the most important part of cham
payne. The picking of the grapes used
requires great care to prevent dlscOlorn-
ton. The grapes should not contain
too much acid and coloring matter, but
considerable sugar.
In order that the grapes should not
become warm, thereby fermentlng pre-
elaturely, picking Is done In the early
morning hours. The grapes are then
placed in the press at once and the
juice squeezed out very gently After
twelve to twenty-fOur hours Ii Is run

The wine is then mixed with wines
of other years and kinds. 1t is then
bottled and the progress of fermenta-
