had a perilously close escape from
death when the passenger and freight
steamer Naomi, of the Crosby Trans

middle of Lake Michigan while on her

the fifth victim. He was terribly
burned IN his berth and died soon after

The fire broke out between decks in

TEA FROM THE FLOWERS.
Naturally Sweet Tea Of Western
China-Value of Tea Dust.
From the Scientific American

From the Scientific American.
Tea, not from the leaves. but from the
flowers alone of the plant, Is rarely encoun-
tered in commerce. The petals, stamens,
etc. are sun dried, and the resulting tea is
OF a rich, deep brown hue Of peculiarly deli
cate odor, and gives a pale amber-colored
infusion rather more astringent in taste
than that from the average fair grade leaf.
The taste for 1t is an acquired one, and
even II this tea could be made commercially
possible it is doubtful IL 1t would ever be-
come popular.
The American tea trade could advantage
,, ously take q suggestion from the brick tea
Of the far east In our country the tea
dust, some Of which is of good quality, Is
not properly utilized. In Europe it is q
regular article of trade, and 1t Is advertised
and sold as tea dust. In America 1t is sold
to thousands of cheap restaurants, who
make from 1t the mixture of fannie acid.

tea" IT, as in the orient, this dust were
compressed into bricks. good tea could be
made from it, and the product would find
ready market through the multitude OF
| uses for which it is adapted. A beginning
in this direction has been made by the
Pinehurst tea estate in South Carolina. and

gurated.

this country Is q naturally sweet tea, pro-
duced in western China on a very limited

The whimsicality of her having selected
him-a battered plaything Of the Fates,

to keep out of her way, and considered
how he could have his meals elsewhere, or

done, he would have acquitted himself, Ell
gallant homme, of all that could be reason

visiting Americans who had contributed to

timid. respectful methods of the olden days

timid, respectful methods Of the olden days.
Get together is the idea now.
Maybe this is in part the fault OF my
lady. herself. The timid, shrinking, queen
like, almost unhuman ideal of womanhood
that was the only one" in 1850 has been
banished by the athletic girl OF today, who
plays tennis and golf as well as her brother,
is clever with the cue, can row, likes basket
ball fences and in some instances Is even
a bit Of boxer. 1t is not SO easy to think
of putting this human flesh and blood girl
on pedestal. More likely than not she
would laugh at the idea. So the lover of
today presents on his valentine the en-
brace, the love that brooks no waiting,
but wants the quick answer to suit In a
rejection or the kiss Of acceptance.
In the valentine of every country the
idea is the same. From Germany comes
the valentine which shows graceful
Gretchen taken by surprise by mus
she is seated by table knitting and he
with one arm dropped round her waist in
sists on kiss.
The Valentine in France.
France, which was one of the first coun-
tries to know the valentine, its home in
that country being Main and Lorraine,
yearly sees the output of many artistic
valentines and in these this year the idea
Of the embrace is again prominent. A
couple sit on rustic bench, and the swain
with arms around her waist seeks to tell
the old, old story, while in pretended coy
ness she throws both hands over her ears
as If to shut out the recital Another pair
are in a field, spangled with brilliant flowers
and having in the distance two picturesque
houses. He kneels and kisses her hand.
This comes perhaps nearest to the old time
ideal Of any of the valentines. But an
other valentine from the same country
swings the pendulum the entire distance in
the opposite direction. for 1t presents a
couple in the sort of a kiss that Nethersole
made famous in Carmen"
The English idea shows a lover so i'm
patient to declare his affection that he does
not wait to enter the bower Of his lady love,
but kisses her as they stand on the steps
that lead to her house. A parrot hanging
| out of the window looks cynically on. per-
haps wondering what can be the entertain
ment of the performance.
Johnny Bull has another valentine that
ranks among the prettiest a scene in the
open woods, with couple in hunting cos
tune, he with gun strapped to his side. The
sport of Diana has been temporarily aban-
doned for the worship of Venus. In this
case the object of the valentine is not de-
picted in a display of any unwonted shy
! ness, very frankly she has placed her arms
