pressed frczn the poisonous seeds of a.
tree extensively cultivated in the
Yang-tsze valley, and also well known
in Japan. To this varnish and pork
fat are added. The lampblack made
by the combustion of these substances
is classed according to the materials

process of combustion. The paste
made of this lampblack has some glue

quantity of musk of the muskdeer, or
of Barcos camphor, for scenting, and

tallic luster. The materials thus pre-
pared are molded in molds of carved
wood, dried, which takes about twenty
days in fine weather, and adorned with
Chinese characters in gilding. About
thirty-two average-sized sticks of ink

CHARMING THE WILY BULLFROG.

and Piece of Bad Flannel.

A young man named Thomas Far-
rar, who lives in Shelbyville, Ind., has
discovered a fact in natural history
and an amusing and profitable sport
at the same time. By means of his
device one of the most prized of del-
icacies is cheap in that locality named,
the edible in question being frogs’ legs.
The old method of catching frogs with
red flannel on a hook is now quite out
of date. The young man discovered
that if a strong light is thrown in
their eyes as they sit singing on a
lily pad or a snag, they will sit still
charmed by the glare, and allow them-
selves to be seizednby the hand of the
hunter. His apparatus when he goes
frog hunting consists of a tin milk
pail with a hole cut in due side and
the handle fastened above it. A
small lamp is carriéd in the pail, the
chimney projecting through the hole.
The bottom of the pail acts as a re-
flector, and throws the fatal light ,in-
to the frogs’ eyes. Nothing more is
needed but a long 'pair of wading

vious to mosquitoes’ stings, for it is
a. well-known fact that where bullfrogs
flourish there the mosquito is largest
and most venomous—New York Jour-
nal.

Lake of Ink with Curative Power.

In the middle of the Cocopah hills, in
Arizona, iswvhat is known as the Lake
of Ink. Though supplied by beautiful
springs of clear water, the liquid of the
lake is black. and of an ink-like char~
acter. The temperature varies from
[10 degrees to 216 degrees, according
to the locality, and the water feels
smooth and oily. According to the In-
dians, not only of the vicinity, but far
away, the waters. of the lake have
strong medicinial qualities, though
most white people would hesitate to
idopt the mode of treatment pre-
scribed. The invalid is buried up to
his mouth in the hot volcanic‘mud for
from twenty to thirty minutes. Then
he is carried, covered with mud, to the
edge of the lake, into which, he is
plunged for from fifteen to twenty min-
dies, after which he is rolled in a. blan-
ket and allowed to sweat. on the hot,
sulphurous sand or rock near by. The
cures wrought are said to be wonderful.

Maryland’s Strong Negro Man.

For a man to stretch himself flat on

the same time. lift up a man standing
on the palms of his hands and weigh-
mg 150 pounds. The man is a colored

The Girls of Morocco Are Fattenod for the ,

Matrimonial Market.

Throughout the empire of Morocco l
and in Tunis there are villages where g
the elder members of‘ibe adult popu- 1

lation follow professionally the pur-
suit of fattening young ladies for the
matrimonial market of Barbary. The
Moors, like the Turks and most other
orientals, give a decided preference to
“moon-faced” wivesover lea-n ones,
and are more solicitous as to the num-
ber of pounds which their brides
weigh ,than about the stock of accom-
plishments they possess.

A girl is put under the process of
fattening when she is about twelve

hind her and she is seated on a carpet
during so man-y hours every day,
while her “papa” stands over her with
a matraque, or big stick, and her

mother'at times pops into her mouth a .

ball of couscoussou, or stiff maize poro
ridge, kneaded up with grease and just
large enough to be swallowed without
the patient choking.

If the unfortunate girl declines to be

stuffed she is compelled, so that ere ,

long the poor girl resigns herself to

‘ the torture and gulps down the boluses -

lest she should be beaten.

In Brazil corpulence is also consid-
ered the essential point of female
beauty, and the greatest compliment
that can be paid to a Brazilian lady is
to tell her that she grows fatter and
fairer every day—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Timour was a mighty conqueror. He
surpassed Alexander the Great in the
extent and success of his warfare and
in the number of nations he subdued.

AN ELECTRIC FISHING REEL.
Something That Would Make Izaak Wall
ton 1‘1“an His Grave.

A local genius at Columbus, Ind. is.
said to have invented an electric fish-
ing réel which is highly successful
from one point of view and very do
a structive from another. As described
in a despatch to The Journal, there i:-
inclosed in the fishing line a small wire
which is attached to a battery nea'r the
fisherman or executioner, and COIlBEL':-
ing at the other end with the hooli.
When the machine is in action the mo.
ment the fish touches the hook it re-
ce‘ivcs a shock that kills it. It is sci-a
that eighty pounds of fish were killed
with the machine in an experimental
trial of a few hours.
I The inventor seems to be ingeniously

diabolical. As a means merely of
killing fish, it may have all the merit
claimed for it, but it is enough to make
old Izaak Walton turn in his grave, if
there is enough of him left to turn, or
rise to indignant protest. A machine
that destroys every element of sport
and gives the person who manipulates
it every possible advantage over the
_ fish has nothing to recommend it ex-
' cept its capacity for killing fish. In
this respect it is quite as unsportsman
like as dynamite, and only less barba
rous in that it only kills one fish at a
time instead of scores. It is somewhat
remarkable that this infernal machine
should have'made its appearance'at
the home of the State Fish Commis‘
sioner. Mr. Sweeney has been doing
good work in the' way of putting a
stop to the unlawful catching and, kill:
ing of fish, and if the law can be made
to cover this new machine he will
doubtless apply it.—-Indlanapolls Jour-

act as a life saver should the necessity
arise, for, in spite of the smallness of
its bulk, the corset holds air enough

l APPLE KING OF THE WORLD.

I A Dian in Kansas \Vlio Has 100,000 Trees
in Three Counties. _ .
Judge Wellhouse is called the apple
I king of the world. His orchard-s, in
I Kansas, says the Kansas City Times,
} consist of 1,630 acres, containing 100,-
‘ JOO apple trees and are located in. the
' counties of Leavenworth, Miami and
Osage. In thirteen years he has
picked over 400,000 bushels of apples,
and whenever he has a little money to
. spare he buys a little more land and
sets out some more apple trees. Grow-
lng apple trees is his passion, just,as
gambling is the passion of some men , '
and raising fast horses the passion of ,.
others—New York Herald.

Japan’s Quaint “'ays.

Japanese cycle manufacturers con“
duct their business on decidedly quaint
lines, They charge for their machine:
according to the speed at which they
are capable of running—that is, what
they term a “seven-mile bicycle" may
be bought for $30, while a twelve-mile
bicycle‘cost $50. At this rate, it would
hardly be worth while to try to push
American machines in Japan, although
the “seven—mile bicycle” could be done

' considerably under $30 by some Amer-
ican ,bicycle manufacturers.
