How it is Prepared for Use in the Presence of the Purchaser. ‘In Manila they make your chocolate while you wait. Right into the house a Chinaman comes with his basket and rolls the crushed cacao bean and sugar, and then makes a supply of chocolate that is sweeter and more palatabie and cheaper than the commercial brand sold in the Chicago stores. When the Chinaman comes he lays aside his hat and shirt, and, stripped to the waist and barefooted, he begins his work. In the basket is the chocolate or cocao bean, from which the rancid oil has been extracted and which oil long ago has anointed the hair of some Filipino belle or lighted some Filipino home. The beans first come on the board bit- ter and brackish. With a roliing pin the Chinaman grinds them into a fine powder. This takes time. When it is done, he opens another basket and dips out the sugar for the sweetening and the final mixture. The sugar is what would probably grade coffee “C” if it were in commercial circles. Like the bean, it grows on the island. Industri- ously the Chinaman rubs, and gradu- ally the chocolate forms on the bottom of the board and drips off in sticky sweetness into the basket beneath. The family gathers about to sample the product and the Chinaman stops to smoke a cigarette while judgment is being passed. Cups of the beverage are handed around and al) “taste.” If it is not sweet enough the manufactur- er throws more sugar on his board and drops in another pinch of vanild and cinnamon for the flavoring. When it is “right” he goes to work, and for sev- eral hours rubs away at his task. The deposit below the rolling pin is a brown substance that is soft and moist, while above it is to all appearances 2 dry powder and sugar. The little ones gather about, and if there is an older daughter, perkaps she sits down on the floor in front of the Chinaman and watches the growing pile. Such was the case in the house of a Spaniard today when I called. The young lady sat there and idly watched the manu- facturer of the edible, and when a lit- tle brother came she took his head in her lap and he lay there with her, watching the brown-skinned Chinaman rub and rub the sugar into the other ingredients. It was insisted that I should sample the finished article, and I found it very good.—Chicago Record. VIVID FLASH OF LIGHTNING. Peculiarity of the Thunderstorm Visited South Africa. A very few days after my arrival at Maritzburg at the end of 1875, I was standing cne afternoon in the shade of my little house on a hill, anziously watching the picturesque arrival of an ox wagon laden with my boxes. It was in the very early summer, and the exi- gencies of settling in left me no time to worry about the thunderstorms, of which, of course, I had often heard. A more serene and brilliant afternoon could not be imagined, and it was not even hot—at all events, out of the sun. My two small boys, as usual, trotted after me like dogs, and clamored to assist at the arrival of the wagon; so I lifted the little one up in my arms and stood there, with the elder boy clinging to my skirts. of the blue, unclouded si blaze of golden sunshine, came a fi and a crash which seemed as if it m be the crack of doom. No words at command can give any idea of the in- tolerable blinding glare of the light which seemed to wrap us round, or of the rending sound, as if the univers were being torn asunder. I s flung myself on the ground, be: was crouching there, holding the little boys beneath me with some sort ct protective instinct, when in a second or two of time it had all passed, for 1! heard only a slight and dista: I do not believe the sun he shining for an instant, though its light had seemed to be extinguished by that blaze of fire. Never can I forget my amazement, an amazement which even preceded my deep thankfulness at find- ing we were absolutely unhurt, the fearless little boys only inquiring, “What was that, mummy?” There had been no time for their rosy cheeks even to pale. I wonder what color I was? I looked at the little storehouse with astonishment to find it still there, for I had expected to see nothing but a heap of ruins. Nay, it seemed muracu- lous that the hills all around should still be standing.—Lady Broome in tne Cornhill Magazine. That Suadenly out use I Peace or War. In the olden days, when the spear was used as a weapon of war, men had to be very careful how they carried it. If they were in a strange country and bore their spears with the point forwards, it was supposed they were bent on mischief, and was regarded as a declaration of war. If, on the other hand, they carried the spears on their shoulders, with the point backwards, CALVE MAKES A CONFESSION. ‘Why Once She Wore Pads and Whv She Has Never Since Worn Them. Mme. Calve tells this story of her- self; “When I went to the Theater de la Monaie in Brussels, in 1881, I made my debut as Marguerite. My second performance was to be Cherubino. At that time I was very slight. My neck and arms were thin, and so, of course, were my legs. I did not think I could possibly appear in breeches without something to make me look a little plumper. So I went to the costumer of the theater and told him I wanted some pads. He made them according to his own ideas of what they should be, and sent them to me so late that I had no time to try them on. I don’t know what I must have looked like when I stepped on the stage. thin and girlish from waist up, but provided with the mest enormous calves. “After the first act rushed around to my ‘Gracious!’ he exclaim: world did you get those certainly are not your own?’ I adsnit- td that they were not, and said [ thought I was too thin to dispense with pads. ‘Don’t you know,’ he said to me, ‘that a young girl with straight, slen- der legs is far better suited to the part of a page than when she disfigures her- self with such things as thos Take off the pads and go out on yor I determined to follow hi yhen I came en the stage I was thin, but at least sy “The effect on the audience ¥ ling.
