Tn. Checkerberry.

The leaves of the wintergreen,
small plant, whose bright red berries,
about the size of peas, are sold on the
streets under the name of teaberry.
have long been used for tea, says the
Philadelphia Press. From this 1t takes
the name by which 1t is known in
PENNSYLVANIA. New Englanders, for
some unknown reason. call 1t checker
berry. The foliage is very aromatic,
and people who like dash Of spiciness
In their drink have sometimes added its
flavor to real tea.
1t is near of kin and similar In taste
to the creeping snowberry. small, del
icate vine abundant in the great boys
and messy woods of the north and Al
leghany regions. and this is also APP
proved by mountain palates as a sub
stitute for tea.
Thoreau in 1.-THE Maine Woods tells
of his Indian guide bringing 1t into
camp one night and recommending it
as the best of all substitutes for tea.
1T has slight checkerberry flavor"
he records, "and we both agreed that 1t
was better than the black tea we had
brought. We thought it discovery
and that 1t might be dried and sold in
the shoDS"

The "sreeni.ter,.v Appetite.

The minister of kirk in rather
remote country parish in Scotland. with
his ruling elder, went long journey
for the 'catechising" Of an old parish
Toner. The walk was long and arduous.
and when they arrived at their destina-
ton their appetites, to say the least,
were somewhat "keen," and they did
justice to the meal which the old pa
rishioner offered them. "Now, Janet"
said the minister, when he and his
companion had for awhile finished eat
ing, 1--WE will begin the serious bust
ness. Do you remember the text for
last Sunday?" AYE, l mind it WELL"
replied Janet. ut was about the mir
acle of the loaves and the fishes"
"And have you pondered the subject
during the week. Janet?' continued the
minister. "'Deed have l, sir" said
the woman, land I'm thinkin' the moo
that if you and the elder had been there
they wadna' have taken up sac mony
basketfuls."

Children In Russia.

A long towel is used by Russian peas
ant women TO support their babies.
These latter have no baby clothes, but
are wrapped in linen sheet. and the
long towel. fastened in knot behind
the mother, passes from the shoulder
under one arm and makes sort of
sling for the baby to lie in. Children
in Russia are not generally allowed out
in the severe weather of winter, but
run about barefoot in summer At
night it is so warm in summer that
the beds are often pulled outside of
the house altogether, and it is not an
uncommon thing on the way home from
some late amusement to come across a
sleeping family of peasants. Richer
families have balconies, on to which
they also sometimes drag their beds
on summer nights.

Ant Robbed by Lizard.

While walking along the road on the
outskirts of Bordighera l noticed a
strange looking insect moving across it
in peculiar way. On getting nearer
saw that what had attracted my notice
was black ant about an inch long
with brown wings dragging cricket
bigger than itself. 1t held the cricket
backward it drew the cricket toward it.
While doing so it entered the shadow
east by my umbrella and instantly re-
leased its hold and got out of the shad-
ow; but, finding there was no danger, it
returned and seized its prey again by
the head and recommended its back
ward movement. a low wall ran along
side the road, and when the ant got
within six feet of it a common brown
yard appeared on the top of the wall
md evidently soon caught sight Of the
ant. for it ran quickly down the wall
and Ito within two feet of it, where it
crouched for n second or two like q cat
ready to spring and then charged the
ant. apparently butting the cricket free
with its head. Before the ant could re-
gain its hold the lizard seized the crick-
,etjn its mouth and darted up the wall
In the direction from which it original
ly appeared on the scene. leaving the
ant running round and round, moving
in an agitated manner, vainly
searching for its lost prey Mature.

There are few ways of earning an
honest penny more strange than that
in which an old couple in the north OF
England exc out scanty income. Their
little cottage is situated near a large
mine, and every morning the GOLFERS
before descending to their work leave
their pipes and tobacco boxes in the
hands Of the old folk. The pipes are
cleaned and filed ready for lighting,
and the miners can come up at the
dinner hour and enjoy a good smoke
without having TO expend time in
charging their pipes. They are again
left to be in readiness for the evening
The small weekly charge per pipe
mounts into a respectable number Of
shillings at the weeks end.

REPLYTo COLOMBIAN MINISTER.

to be made to the note Of General
Reyes, the Colombian minister, regard
ing the action of the United States in
connection with affairs growing out of
the secession Of the department Of
Panama. Just when the answer is to
be ready is not definitely known.
The Colombian note contains a state
ment of the grievances which that
country claims to have suffered under
the interpretations put on the treaty Of
1S46. 1t discusses these grievances in
a calm and dignified tone and sets out
reasons which General Reyes claims
supports the contention he has made.

Colombia and the United States before
anything like conclusion Of the dis

Indian Music.

A student of music of the aborigines
states that the Indians have innumera-
bic songs which conform to a definite
melodic system. Many persons have
been led to believe that Indian music
consists wholly Of drums, whoops and
yells, but, in the face of twenty years
serious study of the matter and thou
sands Of photograph records, this be-
lief is fast disappearing. These mel
odies are all indissolubly linked to leg
ends, myths, ceremonials or religious
rituals of the greatest poetic and dra-
matte beauty.

says that the commission was inform
ed by Mr.. Mckinley that
80 far as the United States was con-
cerned. Cuba had won her economic
and industrial freedom; that the work
had been performed with scrupulous
regard for the interests of the people
OF Cuba; that, In accordance with In
structions received from both the pres
ident and the secretary of the treasury,
the tariff Of Cuba was framed so that
there should be no discrimination i'm ia
vor Of the United States; that the same
tariff law In Cuba would be applied
alike to all countries, so that Cuba
should be free to purchase her supplies
In the worlds markets wherever they
were best and cheapest and not be
compelled to buy in dear market, as
they were under Spanish rule"
Mr.. McKinley's idea and policy were
to leave Cuba's trade free, not shackled
by discrimination or preferential rates
u favor Of any country, as was the
rase under Spanish rule. That was
Mr.. McKinley's view of the true way
to aid the whole people of Cuba regard
less Of the interests of a few sugar and
tobacco planters. And this so deeply
impressed Mr.. Porter that he refers to
the policy again in his work at pages
Pip, where he contrasts the wisdom
and breadth Of Mr.. McKinley's policy
with the discriminating policy in favor
Of Spain:
"We of the United States shall not
so much as expect that the Cuban may,
from sense of gratitude to us for
services we have rendered, give his
trade to us. but we shall teach him by
the invincible example of the very best
goods at the very lowest prices that
sent to the buyer attractions possessed
by no other market in the world"
BY the Mckinley policy Cuba has
been able to absorb about $2S0.0O0.00O
of imports in four years, has gathered
nearly $3,000,000 surplus into her treas
ury and has set up and maintained
stable government, while her Industrial
progress has been the wonder of the
world, her sugar crop promising to be
100000 tons for 10000.
If at any time later Mr.. Mckinley, as
a result of pestiferous importantly of
the sugar planters in Cuba or from
pressure Of home exploiters, trusts or
syndicates, was prevailed upon to prom
Use to suggest reciprocity, it is far from
proving that he believed it to be the
true policy for the island. and he never
did so without wisely and cautiously
coupling the idea with the suggestion
that the matter was one for congress-
adding that reciprocity would surely be
severely antagonized by competing
home interests, such as the sugar, to-
bacco and fruit industries.

TWO $4,000 JOBS GO BEGGING
Traffic Managers Are Wanted for Big
Chicago Freight Systems.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-Two $4,000
jobs are going begging in Chicago.
The work is not considered difficult,
but no one has been found who is will

whom the alluring positions were Of
fered were kept from accepting by a
prompt increase in their salaries by the
corporations with which they were
identified.
One of the places is that of traffic
manager for the new freight bureau
established by the board of trade, for
the maintenance of which an annual
appropriation of $4,000 has been made.
The other is that of traffic manager
for the Chicago Shippers association.
organized several months ago, but still
without a head.
In the case of the shippers associa
ton, the position has been offered to
more than half a dozen men in the
