Cocaine.

Travellers In Peru and countries
where coca grows chew the leaves OF
this plant for the purpose of allaying
the sense of hunger and the feeling of
exhaustion that accompanies il. At
first the leaves were thought TO possess
food elements. but now il Is known
that the cocaine they contain merely
allayS the irrita bility of the nerves
that produce the sense OF hunger. Co
caine is an alkaloid made from the
coca leaf. which has the effect of com
pletely destroying the sensibilty of
nerves. The discovery of this active
principle of the coca leaf explained
fully and satisfactorily the effect pro-
duced by chewing the leayrs.

PRINTING IN CHINA.

Often No Presses Are Used, a Pair OF
Brushes Doing the Work.
The Chinese assert that the art Of
printing was discovered in China about
fifty years before the Christian era.
Until the discovery of the art of pa
permaking. A. D. 95. they printed on
silk or cloth cut in the form Of leaves.
The method employed to this day by
many native Chinese printers is as
follows:
No printing press is used. The deli.
cate nature Of the Chinese paper would
not admit OF it. When the blocks are
engraved. the paper cut and the ink
ready one man with his brush will
print a large number of sheets in a
day.
The block to be printed must be plac-
ed perfectly level and secured firmly
The printer has two brushes, one of
them sitter than the other, which he
can hold in his hand and use at either
end.
He dips 1t into the ink and rubs the
block with 1t, taking care not to mois-
ten 1t too much or leave it too dry. II
1t were wetted too much the characters
would be blurred; if too little, they
would not print When once the block
is got into the proper condition he can
print three or four impressions with
out dipping his brush into the ink
again.
The second brush is used to rub over
the paper with a small degree Of pres
sure. that it may take the impression.
This it does easily. for, not being sized
with alum, it receives the ink the in
slant 1t comes in contact with it 1t
as only necessary that the brush should
be passed over every part of the sheet
with greater or smaller degree Of
pressure and repeated in proportion
as the printer finds there is more or
less ink upon the block.-Harper's
Weekly.

TESTING Coins,

There goes another man sufferin:
from degeneration of public Manners

making change, and he tested every
one of them to see If it was counter
felt right before my eyes 1t is only
lately that people who buy have got
rude enough to do that Clerks always
did It with coin that customers gave
them. but that was a Drerogative of
the trade. For the customer to assume
the same privilege is usurpation Of
ancient rights. The worst of it Is
most people nowadays are pretty good
judges of bad money, and every little
while coin is refused because it is
counterfeit The only way tradesmen
can teach customers the respect due
them is TO turn their own backs when
testing money. That has always been
the custom in England. No tradesman
over there would dare fllip coin un-
der a customers nose, and as a con-
sequence no customer has ever taken
that liberty with him."-New York

GERMAN MUSIC. {

Hans Won Buelow's remark that
Italy was the cradle of music and re-
manned the cradle" was. OF course, not
intended TO be taken literally. but sim

vious truth. Italy gave the world the
first operas, oratorios. cantatas. over
lures, sonatas and most of the ecclesi-
astical forms, and in course OF time il
furnished master works in all these
styles of musical architecture; yet IL
remained for the composers OF Ger

fully developed specimens In each case
Italy can show no choral works equal
to Bach's EST. Matthew Passion" or
Handers Messiah" no overture equal
to those of half n dozen German mas
tiers; no songs equal TO those OF Schu-
bert, Schumann or Franz: no operas
like Wagner's; no symphonies like
Beethoven's; no pianoforte pieces ike
Schuberts, Beethoven's or Schumann's.
On these points there can he no dis

many is now universally conceded to
be the chief musical nation. even by
those whose personal taste impels
them TO favor particular examples OF

Rock Salt Discovered by Acciden

Rock Salt Discovered by Accident
The great rock salt deposits Of Louis
lana were discovered by accident in
May, 1862. Salt was very scarce at
that time, and the proprietor Of the
Islands salt works, John Marsh Avery.
determined to profit by it. With this
end in view he commenced to deepen
his wells. One negro workman, after
going down sixteen feet. came to Mr..
Avery with the news that he had
struck a sunken log. and could pro-
coed no further. Mr.. Avery Investigate
ed and found. not log, but the great
rock salt deposit that has made Louis
lana famous throughout the country.
The discovery did not come altogether
as surprise. as Thomassy had pre-
dicted that great rock salt deposit
would one day be discovered in each of
the five Gulf islands, and perhaps in
other portions of the state. Since the
close of the war. rock salt has been
an important contributing factor in the
mineral wealth Of the state.-Nationul

Blue Balloons.

In case you ever feel tempted to buy
a balloon don't buy blue one. Red
ones are the best. There is scientific
reason why. According to the re-
searches of NJ. Reynaud, caoutchouc Is
strongly attracted by the ultra violet
rays from the mercury vapor lamp
with q quartz tube. which is power
full source Of such rays. This fact has
a practical bearing III connection with
balloon envelopes. which are treated
with caoutchouc: Aeronauts are IA.
miliar with the discovery that the en-
velopes suffer during ascensions, and
this Is explained by the greater effect
Of ultra violet rays at high attitudes.
Experiment had already led to using
yellow coloring matter on the envel-
opes, and red balloons are sometimes
seen, but never blue or violet. NJ.
Reynaud considers that red is the best
color to use. as it not only absorbs the
ultra violet rays, but also the blue
rays, and these last are likely to share
in the bad action Of the suns rays upon
bailoons.-New York World
