TNefts from Hotels.

A certain hotelkeeper in Washington says that the people have no idea of the small depredations that are committed by guests, most of who are people of money enough of their own to refrain. He declares that not long ago he bought 700 yards of toweling for his rooms, and before he had time to learn whether or not the rooms had been supplied, the whole outfit was gone, says the Washing ton Post. They are drummers. and women and all kinds of people who took them" said he, land probably they did not think it was stealing to take things away from the hotel. As to downright theft from rooms, or bilking in the mat ter of meals, there is much less of it in hotels than you would suppose; but Lord! how they will crib the soap and linen and spoons!"

There is tree which grows in sumatra, Algeria and China which is known as the vegetable tallow tree. From it's fruit large quanti ties of oil and tallow are extract ed, and the fruit is gathered in November or December, when all the leaves have fallen. Excellent candles are made from the berries of a tree which grows in some parts of South Africa and the Azores. At Sierra Leone is found the cream fruit tree, the fruit of which is very agreeable in taste. Tn Ceylon there is the breadfruft tree, from which a food ismade in the same way that we make bread.
