CONSUMPTION OF PAPER GREA I
The United States Leads the World
as the Greatest Producer.

Consul William &c. Teichmann
of Elbenstock advises that the Re-
vue Scientifque recently discussed
the consumption of paper by the
principal nations of the world as
rejecting modern opinions because
of its extensive use for printing
purposes. 1t places the United
States in the front rank as the
greatest paper-producing country
of the world, with an annual out
put of 639,734 tons (avoirdupois).
Germany follows, with an annual
production of 393,683 tons; Eng
land, 246,O5I; France, T96,o42;
Austria, I47,7o6, and Italy, 1885,
o26.
One American corporation is de-
clared to be the greatest paper
manufacturing enterprise i'll the
world, possessing 81 factories. with
90 continuously running ma
chimes, the company using almost
as many machines as are operated
in Italy and the Netherlands al
together, and its annual produc-
ton exceeds that Of all the paper
factories in Austria Hungary and
almost equals that OF all the Brit
ish ones. Its capital amounts to
more than SIIo, 900, 900. While
America leads in production, Ger
many has become the largest ex-
porter Of this article, with $1,000
tons annually, England following
with 10, 2IO, the United States 49,
$50 and France $1,000. The Unit
ed States export goes principally
to South America, but also to Can
ada and Australia. Notwithstand-
ing its large production England
remains a good buyer, having i'm
ported I47,9o6 tons last year. 8
Regarding the direct consumpSA
ton of paper it is an interesting
fact that the United States leads
with all annual figure of $50
pounds per capita, England COM
ing next, with 2.43; Germany,
29,9S; France, 2o.5; Austria, 10;
Italy, 1874. Servia showing the
lowest European figure, IL; India
shows only o.22 and China IL per
capita. Nearly half of the paper
manufactured III the world is used
for printing purposes. Twenty
per cent. IS absorbed in the trades
and industries. Almost all equal
proportion is applied for official
and school purposes. The remain
ing 10 per cent. serves the demand
for private use.

ParOid
Roofing

Four things enter into the max
ing OF a good roofing:
The felt; the Sdturdtion: the
coating and the method of laying.
Paroid excels on all four points.
The felt is the foundation. If it
is not right to start with, no treat
ment of any kind can make it into
a good roofing.
We knop that our felt is right
because we make it in our own
mills Established in 1871
We make il because we cannot
buy a felt elsewhere good enough
for Paroid.
Other manufacturers who buy
their felt in the open market
wherever they can get it cheapest
necessarily take big chances at
the very start.
We couldn't give you the money
back guaranty we do if we did
not make the complete roofing
under our direct supervision.
Paroid roofing is not merely
dipped in q solution, but is soaked
in a water proofing mixture Of
our own, which renders every
fibre Of it-through and through
absolutely water proof.
=
And then the coating. Paroid
is coated on both sides with
smoother, thicker, tougher and
more flexible coating than is on
any other roofing made.
There is no room for doubt
about it. You need not take our
word for it. Use your own judg-
meut. Compare Paroid with other
kinds. You will find that PGrOid
is the only roofing that doesn't

ILLUMINATION IN DAYS OF OLD.
Various Methods Which We're Used
in Producing and Using Artificial
Light.

The sconce and the lantern were
in general use throughout the
Middle ages. The sconce was a
light, covered and guarded from
the wind, lifted down by a handle
and distinct from the lantern, serv-
ing somewhat the purpose, but
hung by a chain.
Lanterns in the thirteenth GEN.
fury were made of gold, silver,
copper or iron, according to the
means of the owner. The light in
the latter was shielded from
the wind by thin sheets of horn.
Lantern-making was an important
industry IL Paris.
Noblemen and rich merchants
took to having luxurious little
travelling equipments made for
them, and among these were trav-
cling candlesticks and wash basins
in fine enameled work, the secret
of which is now lost.
The custom of having servants
carry iambeaux at festivals also
became general about this time,
and strange and tragic incident
is connected with this fashion. At
ball given by Charles VI. the
torches carried by some careless
servants came too near the head
dresses of certain persons dressed
as savages and set them on fire.
The unfortunate guests were burn
ed to death, and the King, at the
sight, lost his reason, a madness
which had a serious effect on the
history of France.
Magic lanterns were invented in
time OF King Francis l. a device
on somewhat similar plan was
used as a sign before shop doors to
attract customers.
Lamps fell into disfavor at the
beginning of the seventeenth cen
turV and were only used bV the
poor and in passages and in stables
where the smoke could evaporate
and great deal Of light was need
ed. Candles had reached their
perfection and candlesticks their
most exquisite form. \ candle
stick of crystal given by Louis
XIV. to La VALERIE is still in ex-
istence, and it was at this time
also that the crystal pendants came
into fashion.
Street illumination was not seri-
ously attempted in Paris until the
middle of the seventeenth century
In the first years Of that notable
century the streets of Paris were
dark. The rich were escorted by
lackeys bearing torches, the mid.
die class folks picked their way,
lantern i'll hand, while the poor
slid along, feeling their way by
the walls. In his edict of Septem.
Der, 1867, the King provided that
candles enclosed in a cage of glass
should be hung by cords at the
heights of the first story Of the
house, three lanterns for every
street, one at each end and one in
the middle. At the sound of q
bell struck by a Waterman, they
were lighted.
Paris was, however, cousidera.

There is a hint to modern tenn
peranCe lecturers in this old Tes-
lament temperance address. They
are sometimes themselves intem-
perate. l heard yesterday of one
who recently consumed two hours
and forty-fve minutes, and, riding
home exhausted in the night air,
had himself to take some ,stimu-
liant to prevent chill. Intemper-
ance can show itself, also, not only
in the length of time and vital
force wasted, but in the language
used; in extravaganza and vindic-
tive vituperation.

Isaiah is the model temperance
orator. His style is elevated and

bassador of God. His great heart

a noble nature, uses every worthy
argument and entreaty to stay its
course.

startled me one day by admittiAg
that he kept barrel of whiskey in

keepers, treated his customers;
but on hearing DR.. Beecher, he
went home, rolled the barrel into
the yard, broke in the head, and
poured the whiskey on the ground.
For sixty years he has not touched
or tasted liquor himselfnor offered
it to others. He said that Beecher
was like a flame Of fire on his con-
science. His logic was remorse-
less, his appeal irresistible.
