out that within recent years eight

the federal government, have appoint

~GREEN' TEAS TO BE BROWN
After First of May No Artiticially Col

Into Country.

New York.-Popular brands of low
priced teas, including "gunpowder'
and other time honored favorites, will
don a motley garb after May 1. After
thai date, according to government d.
r~ection, no more artificially colored
teas can be imported, and as a re-
suit many of the teas which have ap-
peared in beautiful green shades for
100 years or more will come in here
utter in hues of brown. yellow and
green.
According to a statement from the
Importers association, the trade all
over the country is unanimous in ap-
proving the new regulation. Green
tea will still be green, but the color
viii be more natural. The artificial
co4oring heretofore used by the Chi
1ese to emphasize the greenness of
their product and to impart a uniform
color and gloss to the leaves, a harm
less dye. will be eliminated.
"The general public here knows lit
lie about tea. America is not a great
tea drinking nation. The per capita
consumption is only one pound a year,
whereas in Canada 1t is six pounds and
in Great Britain nearly seven pounds.
Tea is popular all over Europe be-
cause of its economy. A SO cent pound
of tea will provide at least ESQ cups
of generous strength, while a 20 cent
pound of coffee, the American bever-
age, is good for no more than 80

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of Insect.

Ocecn City, N. ACCORDING to
State Entomologist John B. Smith,
New Jersey and nine other states will
experience a plague of locusts this
year. The state entomologist has a
corps of workers studying methods to
ward of the threatened plague, among
whom is Mrs. E. s.. Starr, of this place,
who, ur.der his direction, is observing
the underground habits OF the insect.
Mrs. Starr has made a statement on
the result of observations. She says:
There are Is species of the cleada
septendecum, or 17-year ~locusts. in the
state bureau OF entomology. This
makes the study of the insect almost
continuous. With each appearing of
the insect something is added to give
the e~ntomologists a new problem to
work out. In Cape May county the in

presence months in advance of its reg

THE range of the outbreak, SO far

both sides Of the West Jersey and Sea-

near Ocean City, and over uncultivated

an atmosphere of hustling prosperity
to the town, but when the warm
months come around they leave town
with filled purses and spend their

tain resorts. The busy clerks stick to
their posts in all kinds OF weather
and all through the year and when the
gloom settles down after the big guns
are gone the government clerk Is the
only hope of the merchant the
amusement managers. 1t may seem
strange, but when closely figured out
the humble government clerk is the
mainstay of our capital city.
During the long months when the

must sweat for his daily bread. Those
humid ummer months of Washington
are hard on a mans nerves ana as

vides for the well being OF still an
other class. In this way the 10000
clerks keep things moving during the
dead season. If the clerks were to
follow the example Of the legislators
and go to summer resorts to rest up
for two or three months the capital
city would take on the appearance OF

would be compelled to close up shop

operative insurance against accidents
to workmen engaged in mining.
The forms of old age insurance now
in operation in the European countries
are classified by the commissioner or
labor as voluntary insurance not SUD-
sidized by the government, voluntary
insurance receiving government subsi-
dies, compulsory insurance, and non
contributory insurance. The investi-
cation revealed that in a number OF
European countries funds are found
which provide old age pensions for en-
ployees on the basis of contributions
from both employers and workmen.
Usually the employer requires the
workman to join the fund, SO that as
far as the employee is concerned the
system may be regarded as compul-
sorry.
The three European countries having
a national system of compulsory old
age insurance are Austria. France and
Germany. In each ase the law emu
merates the classes Of persons subject
to the law. In Austria, the law in
cludes salaried persons only. though
the government Is now engaged In
formulating a plan for a national sys-
tenn of insurance for workmen. In
France and Germany the law covers
nearly all the population g~ainfully en-
ployed who are receiving wages or sal
aries, though many independent per-
sons Of small means are included. The
expense Of the pension in each of the
three countries is met by payments

Seven reasons are given by gas
men for the popular distrust OF gas

paid after the gas has been consumed.
People pay more willingly for what
they have on hand and yet to be used.
Coal, for example. Another reason Is
that a meter will deliver gas whenever
called upon and never forgets to record
