How It is Prepared for Use and the Different Articles of Export Made From It—Tradi- tle: Connected With It—A Seductive Drink Also Produced. -_—— ‘From The Star's Traveling Commissioner. Ruo px Jaxzato, May 20, 1892. N BRAZIL MANDIOCA is as much in use as wheat and corn in the | United States, andafter all that may be said ]) sro:t coffee, cotton, E sugar, Indian rubber, gold and diamonds it is the most important pro™ duction, for by it the + people live. Not only J is it's very valuable iS article of export—in the shape of tapioca, arrow- root and farina—but itis a staple article of food, as indespensible to the average Brazilian as potatoes to the Irishman, beef to the English- man or frejoles to the Mexican. It is found upon every Brazilian table in some form or other at every meal. not only in various whole- some and palatable dishes, but it figures largely in greasy, gurlicr soups and in the everlasting olla podrida of carne seca (dried meat) sli together with lard, beans, yams, seeds and good- ness knows what. In the form of coarse flour a majority of the population use it the year around in lien of bread. Made into MANDroca. porridge it iseaten at all times.

The wonder is that those untntored savages learned its nutri- tious use:, because in its natural state it is dead!y poison, containing so mach hydrocyanic acid that thirty drops of the clear juice will kill & man in six minutes. The art of rendering it innoxious and fit for food was, next to the po- tato, the most valuable gift of the aboriginal South American to the civilized world, and one which reflects no small credit on the donors, becanse had it not been accompanied by infor mation on its culture and conversion into the “staff of life” (the result of their own primitive experiments) uoattention would erer have been to the poison weed.

The Amazonian Indians, who were o nibals, have another story concerning effect that, many years ago.a babe in one of their tribes who, when only one day old, walked end talked and instructed the peopie. She wns named Mani, and died within the vear. According to the custom of she was buried inside the hut of her heaven (rain) might fall every her resting place. Soon a plant, be- nown, sprang out of the grave, and presently the earth opened and revealed some large white roots, which a mysterious voice bade them est.

T ought to have mentioned before that there is one variety of mandioca—not the most common kind, however—which contains no poisonous substance. It is the sweot cassava or yucca, called “‘apim” (manihot aipim), whose roots are eaten raw, boiled or roasted, and are but little inferior to the South American potato (which, by the way, is not at all like the culti- vated potato which has been evolved from it in other countries), similar in taste to the large Italian chestnut. It has the farther advantage of requiring only eight months to ripen, in- stead of eighteen or twenty, but it cannot be | converted into farina or tapioca and is worth- Jess as an article of commerce. So, if tradition be true, it must have been the sweet cassava that «prang from Mani’s grave. Though often experimented upon, no means has ever been devised for preserving the crude root more than twenty-four hours, and the slightest moisture spoils the flour. Those who depend upon it for their chief food supply manage to keep it from harvest to harvest by slicing the root under water and drying them hard as rocks before a fire. When required for use they are grated to fine powder, which, being beaten with water, looks like cream of almonds. Another way is to macerate the roots until they become as putrid as prime Dutch cheese, then | hang it up to be smoke-dried; and this, when pounded fae mortar, makes the very whitest ‘and most delicate farina. 3T SUPPLIES A SEDUCTIVE DRINK. Mandioe also supplies a drink, which histo- rians tell us was in high favor among the sav- agos at the time of their discovery by the Por- tuguese, and is still in universal use among the Indians. If youever have an opportunity of tasting it you will thenk me for telling you how it is made. This is the recipe: Slice the roots, | boil them till soft and set aside to cool, Then Then pour the liquid off into another jar, which must be buried up to its middle in the dirt floor of the family habitation, where, closely covered, it will ferment in two or three days. When re- quired for use a fire is built around it and the Deverage is served steaming hot. There is a superstition that if men have anvthing to do about it the drink will not only be worthless, but colic provoking; therefore the chewing is always done by women. De Lery says that the aborigines were great drunkards on mandioca. It was the custom for ail the men of the tribe to assemble at least once a month and go from house to house singing and dancing up to the foaming jars to receive a warm gourdful, served by the women, and that they kept it up as long as a drop remained in the village. hardly recov- ering from one debauch before it was time for the next one. Mandioc has a medicinal virtue, too. A poul- tice of it moistened in its own juice is consid- ered a panacea for imposthumes. A drop oF two of the poison is administered for tape worms, and applied to old wounds will eat away the gangrened flesh. For certain poisons and for snake bites it is said to be an unfailing antidote, and the pure juice is used for cleaning rusty steel and iron. Faxsiz B. Wax. pan Sine: MASKS AND FACES. Counterfeits of Human Features in Ancient and Modern Times. JVMAS55 ARE OF VERY ANCIENT ont- +¥4 gin. In a tomb 3,000 years old at Mycenm Dr. Schliemann found two bodies with faces covered by masks of gold. One of the masks represented the head of a lion. Among the ancient Greeks the lion mask was a sign of distinction; with the Peruvians of old it was a mark of royal lineage. Ina grave of consider- able antiquity in Peru a silver mask was found on the head of amummy. The mummy of a Prince, who lived in the reign of Rameses II, overed i: @ small vault at Memphis in pt, bad a mask of gold leaf over the face. ‘Egyptians believed that human life had its seat in the head. In order that the dead person should rot really perish altogether, re- roductions of the form, and particularly of the Rice, of the detunct were provided for the soul to take uparesidence in. As many as forty | such a have been found in a single tomb, and for the same object rich people had nu- merous statues made to represent themselves ag well as the dear departed. Owing to the | petuation of this notion that carved and sculp- | tured figures of human beings are occupied by | spirits, it is very difficult to find a statue in | Egypt today that has not been more or less de- if and broken by the natives, who ine | that in this manner they can render such spirits powerless to harm them. To perpetuate the visage of the dead it was reproduced in the wood or stone of the case which inclosed the mummy. All the features | were made complete, in order that the defunct won should see, hear and taste. In ancient, I during periods of public calamity the | faces of the gods were covered with masks. The worship of the head is carried to an ex- ted point in the curious Indian myth which describes the —— a ¥ rolling along flaming plains. Among the In- diana of North America many strange beliefs are held respecting demon heads that wander about, Songetimos barmlosily and at other times for malignant purposes. Some of them are | tic size, with wings, while others have | pa of fire. There used to bea society among the organized for the purpose of propitint extraordinary terrors. The latter, according to popular conception, most commonly moved | about from treo to tree in solitary places, where they were apt to be encountered, much to the discomfort of hunters and women who chanced to be alone in the forest. Few things can be imagined more disagreeable than to meet unex- pectedly in the 8 great head six foot high, ly these remarkable ‘creatures would talk, but it was chiefly at night that they had a fiery aspect, their favorite nocturnal haunts being marshes and pools.

Among the Zunis at the ceremony of the “Kokko” various individuals get themselves up to represent the different gods. On donning his mask the sctor becomes not oaly sentative of the god, but is endo of the functions and powers of the divinity. Among other things he is given the “breath” of the god.

The report of the committee appointed at Minneapolis last year on Sunday closing of gates of the Columbian exposition was read by Rev. R. V. Hunter of Terre Haute, Ind. Previous to doing so Dr, Hunter said: “There are some people who want the world’s fair open on Sundays. Do we want it open?” ‘A mighty shout of “No!” was the response. Dr. Hunter then read a lengthy paper which formed the committee's report. In conclusion the committee made the follow- ing recommendations: aie | leer gp does reiterate —_ emphasize its action of one year ago in opposi- tion to the opening on the Sabbath of nya of the world 8 fair to be held in Chicago in 1893.

Success of a Washington High School Roy at West Point. ASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL BOYS may find it difficnlt to enter Harvard, but they walk into the United States Military, Acad- emy at West Point without the slightest trouble, and-when they get in they manage, in an unob- trusive fashion, to do honor to themselves and to the institution in which they absorbed most of their educational knowledge. . At the head of the second-year class at West Point is a High School graduate—Will J. Bar- den—and within » dozen numbers of him, in 9 class of sixty-six, are two other High School representatives—W. H. Mitchell, who jis No. 11, and C. C. Williams, who is No. 12. To be at the head of the second year class means more than a little, but when it is remem- bered that Mr. Barden was No. 2 in the first class it is proof that his abilitios were decidedly superior. He was not content with second place, , 80 he toiled away until ho climbed over the one man who was his most dangerous opponent and changed places with ‘There are two years more of the closest kind of study, but the High School bo} here are satisfled that their champion will found in the highest place of honor on graduat- ing day in 1894. though Cadet Barden was born in Conneo- tient he is really « Washington boy. | His father, who is a veteran , has alway maintained his residence in Connecticut whi the government in this city; something he has done continuously since 1868. The cadet’s early education was acquired in the Franklin School building, and when he had learned all that could be taught him there he competed for admission to the High School. In that st he showed the stuff that was in him, for he was but second on the list of suc- cessful ones. That was in 1887. The soldier instinct was strong and the High School battahon gave him an opportunity to gratify it. He wore sergeant’s chevrons almost from the beginning, and in 1888 and 1889, with the rank of major, commanded that admirable body of student ‘troops. Without letting any one into his secret he was aiming for West Point. In 1889, his graduating year, he declared his intention, and competitive examination in his native congressional die- trict afforded him the opportunity he sought. He packed his grip, and when he came back from the nutmeg state had the appointment, metaphorically, in his inside pocket It was September, 1889, when his name went on the War Departmeat record; it was June, 1890, when he entered the academy. In the cadet battalion he is quartermaster sergeant and when he gets into His last year he is one of the probabilities for rapid promotion in that organization. Cadet Mitchell is a first sergeant, while Cadet Williams is a line sergeant, proof that the High School, both in its educational and military features, is a success. All three of the young gentlemen named have been in the city spending the two weeks’ furlough to which every well-behaved second classman is entitled at this season. eas AT THE FAUQUIER WHITE.
