There are at present in use twe native methods of extracting rubber, The first, that of incision or tapp after maturity. It is also a notable] fact that large sections of the root of & vine can be dug up and cut off withe out killing the vine. In the Mozam: bique district there are nlaces where natives have been cutting roots from the same vines year after year. The recognition of this fact will make an enormous difference in the estimates is followed by all natives south of the Zambesi Valley, and it produces g high-grade rubber known as Mozams bique pink, second only to best Parg on the European market.

A certain well known actor—an es tablished star of the first magnitude, in fact—has a son who has always giv- en the father a great deal of trouble. Despite his inherited talent, which would insure him permanent employ- ment on the stage, the son shows & fondness for living on the ingome of his parent. He can see no reason why both of them should work. One time the father got tired of ad- vancing money to the son. An es. trangement had been threatening for 8 long time. Finally, the father seal- ed the climax when, in response to a written “touch” for $50, he sent the boy a $5 note, with the added advice that that was the iast money he should ever advance to him. To this| threat the son sent the following an- swer: “If you do not send me the $50 I re- | quested I'll use this $5 in the purchase of a revolver and blow my. brains out.” The father, in reply to this tragic note, sent back this one: “I have told you time and again that you will have to quit wasting my mon- ey on useless luxuries. Don’t spend Come up to the house and I'll lend you mine.” Goes Either Way.
