CHOCOLATE PLANT IS NATIVE
Has Been Cultivated In Many coun-
tries, But It Undoubtedly oriol-
mated In America.

The chocolate plant is 2 native Of
America. When first introduced into
Europe chocolate was used only al a
luxury, but it speedily advanced in
popular esteem It is now cultivated
in countries far from it's original home.
The. chocolate plant, as well as tea
and coffee, has been cultivated from
time immemorial. Chocolate as a bev-
erage rapidly made its way IN Europe,
beginning in Spain, whittier it was first
brought.
The seeds of the chocolate plant are
in pods. In preparing the seeds for
market there has been but little
change since early times. First the
seeds are allowed to ferment; and thus
they lose the slight bitterness which
they possess when fresh. Then they
are carefully dried, and In this condi-
ton they stand transparent. In manu-
featuring the seeds or beans are roast
ed, by which process the shell OF the
seed becomes detachable from the kerr
mel, which is the part used.- Next the
roasted kernels are ground.
In early times the Mexicans used the
fat stones on which their maize was
ground for the grinding Of the roasted
seeds of chocolate. Chocolate consists
of the roasted, shelled and ground
seeds. Sweet chocolate is the same
with the addition of sugar and flavor
ing extracts. Cocoa consists of the
roasted and ground seeds from which
the oil has been removed. Experiments
have shown that If the seeds are right
ly treated from the first to tho last
stage of manufacture no objection can
be urged against the beverage pro-
duced from them. 1t is Of Importance
that these seeds should be grown and
selected with the greatest care and
should, after reaching the factory, re-
ceive the most careful and skillful

SPECIAL ROPE FOR CLIMBERS
Those Used In tho Alps Are Selected
for Strength, Reliability and
LlQhtness.

The rope used by Alpine climbers is
Of special manufacture, combining as
far as possible the different qualities
Of strength, fexibility and, lightness.
Three qualities are in general use
being made from sisal, Italian and
Manila hemps respectively, and occa
sionally, when cost Is not q considera
ton, of silk. The latter, though very
light and strong, Is not SO durable as
the others. That which finds most ia
vor among British mountadneeers Is
known as Buckingham's Alpine rope
It Is made OF the best Manila hemp.
In the year 1854 committee OF the
Alpine club made tests upon number
of ropes suitable for mountaineering
OF the two that were approved one
was made of Italian hemp and the
other Of Manila. They both had q
breaking strain of two tons and sus
tanned the weight of 170-pound man
after falling from a height of ten feet

With the Invalid.

"A nursery ice box in the sick room
is a convenience not only to the in
valid but to the nurse. A bottle Of wa
ter can always be kept there on hand
for drinking. Milk, too, can be kept
on tap, and other food can be stored
there from day to day. Any tin box
can be made to serve as nursery
ice box. If you have an old bread box,
use that. Put pan in the bottom Of
it, and lay wire cake tray, the sort
that you put in the oven to hold cake
or bread tins, over the pan. Put the
ice on the tray, and the melting water
will drain into the pan. This, of
course, must be emptied whenever it
is full. Put milk and water in the
bottom of the box, and put other
things around the ice, on the wire
tray. There is an ice blanket which
helps keep the. ice from melting and
SO reduces the cost Of ice, and one Of
these would be useful in the nursery
ice box. It is wrapped about the ice
or spread over it, and it is said that

False Teeth an italian Invention.

False Teeth an italian Invention.
No doubt the statement Of firm OF
manufacturers that they sell over H.
100000 false teeth q year, IL well
founded, since everyone uses them
these days. It seems, however, to re-
call to memory the fact that the use
of artificial teeth Is Just = little over
q hundred years old.
The first successful maker was Gus
sepangelo Fonzi, an Italian dentist
who started practice in Paris in 1873,
and, thanks to his skillful treatment
Of 1iacien Bonaparte. soon made his
way. After years Of experiment he
discovered the substance from which
artificial teeth are still made, and re-
ceived the gold medal Of the French
Academy Of Science. One Of the Gsrli'
est persons fitted with false teeth was
the empress of Russia. After Water
loo Fonzi migrated to London, and
then to Madrid, where Ferdinand VII.
Of Spain, rewarded him with a yearly
pension Of a thousand ducats for .
set Of false teeth.

auditor then divides the amount OF
tax that each district requires by
the taxable value in each district and
thus finds the. levy In mills and tenths
that will be required to raise the
amounts certified by the school boards.
These levies were figured after the
increase which was certified In by
the state executive council was add
I'd to the valuations as returned by
the assessors.
When the 1evies were made by the
board in the month of September,
1918, the treasurer was called in and
the balances of the different funds as
certained and compared with the pre-
cedfng year and the amount raised by
/ mill on the increased valuation fig
ured out, by the auditor, and the board
was unable to see any levy that they
were responsible for that could be
lowered. #
Couldn't Lower Levlcs.
On account of the increase in the
cost of bridges it was impossible to
make any change in this levy, the
balance on hand at the LIST of Sep
TENDER, 1918, being $12,1s3.39 less
than the year before and several
large bridges yet to pay for that had
been contracted.
The / mill poor fund balance was
also less than the year before, one
reason being that the last legislature
passed law creating a pension for
widows, allowing them up to two
dollars per week for each child under
the age of II years, the amount to be
determined by the court. So far the
court has granted 10 pensions to
widows that amounts to about ST.
100000 per year and this is paid from
the poor fund, which only amounts to
$S1S1.81 on the increased valuation,
hence 1t was impossible to lower this
levy. ,-a-I. -.
New laws are responsible for keep
ing the levy for soldiers relief at the
same figure as before, |. e., 3 mill, as
a law was passed whereby any town
with a cemetery that has thirty SOL
diers buried may apply for SOL
dier's monument at the expense of
this fund. >.-a IL.
The county drainage fund is a new
levy authorized by the new road law
passed by the. 35th legislature and is
to be used for draining the highways,
and may be used in the road work.
Board not to Blame.
The statement has been made that
the board did not counsel with anyone
when the levies were made, but went
ahead and made them the same as
before in spite of the increased valua-
tons made by the state.
The above is not the facts as the
board did take counsel with both the
treasurer and auditor and We're in
formed of the balances in the different
funds and the amount that the levies
would produce on the increased val
uations were figured out for them,
and with the balances showing less
than previous years and laws that call
ed for more money, they did not see
their way clear to make any reduc-
tons.
Take Manchester, Hopkinton and
Earlville and the levies are made up
by the following bodies: Manchester
levy is 1913 mills, of which the state
is responsible for 49, mills; the board
1913; fixed by law, 3 mills; school
board, 1916; and the council, "a mills
