Process by Which Their Crop Is Pre-
pared For Market.
As soon as the sponges are brought
aboard they are thrown in heaps on
deck near. the scuppers, where the
barefooted sailors tramp and work out
the ooze; then, strung on lines, they
are soused over the side and trail over
board some ten hours during the night
To break and separate from them she'll
fish and other parasites they are beat
en- with heavy sticks on deck or on the
reef rocks of Tripoli, and after being
well soaked in the sea again many are
bleached by being immersed in tub
of water containing certain solution
Of oxalic acid, from which they emerge
a yellowish color, care having been
taken to avoid burning them.
Often great strings Of sponges bleach
ing and drying in the sun cover large
portions Of the standing rigging of
deposit boats when in port. When dry
they are worked up in sand, then pack
ed In boxes ready for shipment. A
quarter to third Of the crop is sold
direct from Tripoli, mainly to England
and to France and Italy. The bulk Of
the crop, unbleached and unprepared,
is taken at the close Of the season to
the islands from which the boats came
where long experience, manipulation
and cheap labor prepare them for the
European market.-C Charles Wellington

In the evening of the same day, your

The Souvenir Postal Card Craze.

The Souvenir Postal Card Craze.
The collection of souvenir postal
cards has practically created a new
industry. Its beginnings were ap-
parently in Europe; travellers there
led in sending cards to their friends
at home, on which were pictured in
teresting scenes at places visited.
Then the industry spread to this
country, till now no town of any size
in the United States is without its
post cards, with pictures of build
ings, or some natural attractions,
often in colors.
The postal card business proves
extremely profitable to postoffice.
1t takes approximately one hundred
and twenty cards to weigh pound;
this means 81 30 for carrying them
through the mails. Merchandise
pays LIZ cents; books Sand news
papers and magazines, from the
place of publication, cent. The
average cost to the Government of
moving matter through the mail is
10 the neighborhood of s cent. 1t
is thus apparent that the picture
post card craze, by stimulating the
use of this device for communicating
is greatly adding to Uncle Sans
revenues, and offsetting the losses
from other quarters.-N. Y. Even
