American Cigarettes Are Carrying All Before Them in the Orient. The idea that the native Indian es- chews all but his ative tobacco, which he takes mostly in the form of cheroots, receives a hard shock from the newly issued official Review of the Trade of India. It appears that in 1898-99 the imports of manufactured tobacco, especially in the shape of cigarettes, underwent much expan- sion. It is no longer true that the con- sumption of imported tobacco is prac- tically confined to the Anglo-Indian population. Cigarettes made in Amer- ica are being extensively imported now with special reference to the re- quirements of the native smoker, says the London Mail. They are greatly in evidence in and about Calcutta and other large cities, where they are be- | ginning to supersede the unclean and unsavory compounds smoked in na- tive apparatus. Imported cottons have largely su- perseded the production of the native handloom; imported mineral oil and dyes have superseded the inferior ar- ticles produced in the country, to the great advantage of the consumer; im- ported sugar is also gradually begin ning to thrust back.the inferior and dirty sugar hitherto offered to the | Indian consumer; and now it seems that Indian tobacco is to recoil be- fore the invasion of foreign tobacco made up in neatly packed cigarettes. Another turn of the wheel, and when the people have become accustomed to the better article the capitalist will arise and make it on the spot of Indian tobacco, to the advantage of both producer and consumer, 45 has been done with cotton goods and will be done with sugar. THERE WAS A MISTAKE. Case of Genuine Honesty That Took | an Incredulous Scoffer Off His Feet. “I think,” he began, as he halted a pedestrian on a back bay street in Boston, “I think I made a mistake with the cabman who drove me to’ the art gallery. I am quite sure I gave hima ten dolar bill, but he must have mis- taken it for a two dollar bill.” “And you hope to find him again?” asked the man, who was a stranger in the city, relates an eastern exchange. “Why, yes, I have hopes.” “Well, you are about as green as they make ’em. That cabman delib- erately swindled you out of many dol- lars.” “I can’t hardly believe it. He looked so honest and truthful that I—I—” “That you ought to have asked him to hold your watch and the rest of your money! My dear old Josh from the cornfields, let me say—” At that minute a cab rattled up, and the driver dismounted and said: “See here, old man, there is a mis- take. You probably meant to give me a two dollar bill, and I thought it was one whenI gave you one dollar change.” “But I think it was a ten, my friend.” “No, it was a twenty, and I have been driving about for half an hour to find you and restore the money. Here it is.” “And what was it you were goin’ to say to your dear old Josh from the cornfields?” asked ‘the old man, as he turned to the stranger. But the stranger was there no long- er. He was flying for a subway car as if running for his life. A CLEVER CHINEE. He Draws a Keen Comparison of His Religion and Other People’s. “One of the most brilliant men of my acquaintance is a Chinaman,” said John B. Galore, of New York, toa Washing- ton Post reporter. “He has a tea house up in our metropo.is, and he is a scholar as wellas importer of the leaf. We were talking about the Chinese imbroglio several days ago, and conversation drifted from Boxers and the taking of Peking to the teachings of Confucius. He called attention to the fact that mis- sionaries were trying to Christianize native Chinese who cling to a religion which has stood the test 6,000 years, and had nearly 300,000,000 followers, white the Christian religion is scarcely 2,000 years old with many followers of divided belief. * “You Christian believers remind me,’ he explained, ‘of the Chinaman who stood on the river shore and watched the moon rise over the hill. A ray of sublime light came to him. It was beautiful. His friends were sta- tioned at other places and he called to them to come quick and behold his own beautiful ray of light. They replied that they also followed beautiful rays of light to the same moon. From what- ever position they looked they caught a ray equally as beautiful. That’s the way with religion, and’especially yours. You are looking at the light of good- ness, emanating from the Divine source, and each thinks he hasa monop- oly, like the lone Chinaman with his one ray of light.” Women Rulers, Considerably more than half the hu- man race is ruled by women. Two women — the ‘empress dowager of China and the queen of England— alone govern about half the entire population of the world. The third in importance is young Queen Wilhel- mina of Holland, whose home land numbers less than 5,000,000 souls, but whose colonies have 30,000,000, Spain is ruled by a woman, Queen Regent Christina, in the minority of her son. It is expected that the queen mother Margherita will have great influence over her son’s kingdom, but her case is not needed to estabush the prepotr Serance of woman-ruled races, | terious poisoning symptoms, POISON IN A WEARY BODY. Human Beings Are Subject to a Spe- clea of Self-Poisoning by the Eating of Game. The eating of “high” game {s un- doubtedly attended with risks and the poisonous effects are ptobably due to the toxins produced in the earlier stages of the putrefactive process, oe be London Lancet. The advan- ge, of course, of ha: me is that the flesh Pett ig and decidedly more digestible than when it is quite fresh. The ripening proc- ess, however, may mean the elabora- tion of toxins. It has been stated that the production of the character- istic flavors of game is related direct- ly to the amount of sulphuretted hy-, drogen or sulphur-alcohol set free, but it is rather repulsive to think that the delicate flavors of game is dependent upon that invariable prod- uce of decomposition of rotten eggs— sulphuretted hydrogen. The smell evolved during cooking of “high” game is even more disgusting. Fresh game sometimes sets up mys- which have been attributed to the face of the game having been overhurried and fatigued. Fatigue, products, in- deed, have been separated from over- hunted game which when injected into a healthy animal have produced marked poisonous effects. There is , no doubt that fatigue products under | certain circumstances are also elab- orated in the human body and give rise to a species of self-poisoning, characteristic symptoms of which are headache, stupor and gastric and in- testinal pains. The flesh of over- driven cattle may prove poisonous from the same cause. This curious formation of poisonous products inthe flesh of animals through a state of terror or exhaus- tion is a question well worth consid- ering in relation to the wholesomeness of animal foods and emphasizes the importance of slaying animals intend- ed for food in the most humane way. THEY SUFFER NO PENALTY. Scores of Men Who Rob Banks Are Never Brought to the Bar of Justice, “Alvord’s theft of $700,000 and Schreiber’s of $106,000,” said an expert accountant, according to the Philadel- phia Record, “go to show that in all business it is impossible to prevent dis- honest men from stealing. No matter how thorough the auditing may be, no matter how closely the heads watch those under them, every man who handles money can steal, with a reason- able chance of escaping detection. That more such men don’t steal speaks well for human nature, but I must qual- ify this statement with the additional one that many do steal and are caught, but their employers, while discharging them, do not make public their crimes. It isn’t charity which impels the em- ployers to do this, though; it is a fear of hurting the credit of the firm. “You can safely say that 90 per cent. of the thieving employes of Philadel- phia are not brought to justice. Usua‘- ly they arrange to pay back their defal- cations on the installment plan. I know | abachelor of 43 whoin his youth robbed |’ the bank that employed him of $4,800, with which he speculated, hoping to make enough to marry. He lost all, was discovered and is still paying off, out of a paltry salary, that debt of shame. I know the histories of scores of defaulters, and in every case the thefts were, ina way, innocently begun. The money was taken with the deter- mination that it would be replaced.” 4 Quicksilver Flasks. The bottles or flasks used for trans- porting quicksilver are generally made of boiler iron and are cylindrical in shape, about 12 inches in height and four inches in diameter, with a screw plug inserted in one end. The capacity of a flask is 764% pounds and its weight about 14 pounds. Such flasks are used by all producers of quicksilver, and pass through the hands of various dealers till they reach the consumer. The total num- ber used in this country cannot be very large, as the total product last year of quicksilver in the United States was but 28,879 flasks, and the same flask can be used again and again till it gets too rusty inside. A flask can easily last 25 years. We un- derstand most of those now in use are made abroad, but an American firm also has made them. Most of the sec- ond-hand flasks can be bought for 25 or 30 cents apiece. New Form of Phonograph, Among the exhibits at the Paris exposition was a phonograph, invent- ed by Valdemar Poulsen, a Danish en- gineer, which uses a wire-wound in- stead of a wax-covered cylinder. The wire is of steel, and over it, in place of the usual stylus, passes a small electro-magnet connected with a tel- ephone transmitter and battery. The sound waves cause a variation in the intensity of the electro-magnet, and the magnet, acting upon the wire passing beneath it, leaves a perma- nent impression upon the latter. Upon reversing the action the wire reacts on the magnet and correspond- ing sounds are transmitted by the tel- ephone. In order to obliterate the magnetic trace on the cylinder it is only necessary to revolve it under the magnet while this is subjected to a continuous current. Discontented Turks. The number of discontented Turks must be enormous. Forty-eight thou- sand have been exiled during the last 11 years. To these must be added those who have fied and those who are related to the exiles. During the last five years more than $4,888,000 has been spent by the sultan in try- ing to persuade the fugitives to re- turn. : and I haue just taken my full dress suit to Tom McAlpine, the Cleaner, to be cleaned Grand Rapids, - Minn.
