Cork For. Insulating.

A new insulating material has re-
Gently been invented by Portuguese
firm Of cork merchants. It has for it's
principal component graduated cork
and is called corticite. Its application
Is unlimited. for it will resist the cold
of Siberian winter and the rays of
tropical sun; also the attacks Of in
sects, even the white ant being power
less against It, AS a nonconductor of
sound it should be useful In city fats.
On boiler tubes and boilers it Is said to
reduce the temperature Of the boiler
room to an agreeable one. It is not
in1ammable and may be generally
adopted for partitions and Innings of
houses. Bricks and slabs Of corticite
are made for this purpose and can be
sawed and bored like wood. It would
seem to possess special advantages for
use on warships, taking the place of
wood as far as possible.-New Orleans

PERSIAN CUSTOM OF BAST.

Method Of Fighting Wrongs II In
convenient to Legati0ns.
In Persia there is the strange custom
known as ''bast." It simply means that
any one having a grievance by taking
refuge on the premises Of q nobleman
may demand that the nobleman take
up his cause as though the bastee were
one Of his own household.
There seems to be no limit to the Gus
tom, for the petty criminal often takes
refuge. or bast. in a mosque. where be

must starve him out.
There was q man who sat for eight
years in one Of the legations here pa.
tiently awaiting q settlement Of a
small claim that he had against the
Persian government Ministers came
and went. but he stayed on. At last
his claim was paid. and he died cele
brating his victory!
Few legations would have the cour.
age to put man out. as 1t would bring
down no small amount Of opprobrium
upon them.s s

Fortunately the grounds are large,
but at best great damage must be done

and more men camping on them.
A short time ago these people would
have gone to the Russian legation. but
today it is passed by and forgotten.
while the streets surrounding the Brit.
ish legation are filed with crowds who
do not hesitate to say that England can
have the country II she wants 1t.
The whole city seems to be on q
