TEA DRINKING TREMENs.
Shattered Nerves Resulting from
over-Indulgenee in the
Beverage.

Tea treinens ls recognized disease In
China Its victims are the tea tasters
the judges Of the Chinese teas. These
men never swallow a drop Of tea, but
nevertheless they become AFFLICTED with
a malady as.distressing as insomnia.
TEA tremens," said dealer, "is, in
a word, shattered Geryes. The victim
OF tea tremeus can't sleep, can't eat,
can't BIT still. Furthermore, he IL un-
happy--as unhappy as q man who was
drunk the night beforehand his mind
fingers on the thought Of suicide.
Tea tasters Of China are English
men. Their employers are Russians
Russia is the great tea-drInkIng coun-
try, and It is to Russia that the best
lea goes. Some Of this Russian tea is
worth so TO S12 a pound The Rus
sian tea firms employ English tasters,
because tasting is an art that requires
great abstemiousness; alcohol must not
be touched, and only the simplest foods
may be taken. The Russian Is any
thing but abstemious. He is great
eater and drinker, and the largest SAL
airy would not tempt him away from
the festive board. Hence his tee tasters
are all temperate Englishmen.
III tasting tea you don't swallow;
you only roll upon your tongue the
liquor Nevertheless you get tea ire.
mems The powerful aroma Of tho
herb. after o month or so Of tasting
wrecks your nerves. and frst you have
headache and then insomnia attacks
you.
But the disease Is durable. Tea
testers, after q vacation Of a week or
two, are As well a. ever again. II Is a
good thing for them that their calling
only has to be piled q few nonthh In
the spring. II would inevitably kilI

t'i'li illustrate what mean with the

'.Haeckel, though a German, wrote In
English q monograph on the radio
lnrians-a monograph In three volumes,
weighing 80 pounds, that occupied the
man 10 long years.
THE radiolarians are microscopic sea
animals. Haeckel had discovered,
classified and named $50 Of them when
Prot. Murray, OF the famous Challenger
expedition, came to him with q little
bottle In his hand This bottle con-
tained water, and In. the bottom Of 1t
there was a deposit that looked like

"'Yes, said Murray, and | have

only man in the world capable OF hand

'Hoeckel spent - years examining
under the microscope the deposit in that
little bottle He found no less than 1000
absolutely new specimens Of these radio
larlAns, and each one Of these radio
Iarians had to be drawn, described and
named,
