BEST TEA ON MOUNTAIN TOP
Long Cultivated by Priests of Budde
hist Temple In the Western Part
of the Country.
The best tea in all China, and, there-
fore, in all the world, grows on top
of a small mountain in Western Sze
chuan, called Ming Shan, and is culti-
| glass flasks with it.
vated by the priests of the Buddhist '
temple on its summit, according to the
Youth’s Companion. Tradition says
that a Chinese pilgrim brought the
seeds from India centuries ago. There
are only a few pounds in each crop,
and these have always gone as tribute
to Peking for the use of the imperial
household. Who will get the precious
tea now? Will it be reserved for the

A new and extraordinary use for

who are willing to pay a big price for
such a luxury?
There is a saying in China, that to
make a perfect cup of tea you must
take leaves from Ming Shan, and wa-
ter from the Yangtze. No one sup-
posed the actual turbid river water to
be meant, but no one could explain the
proverb until De Rosthorn, who wrote
an interesting treatise on Chinese tea
solved the problem, or thought he did.
De Rosthorn was once crossing the
Yangtze near its mouth, at Chen-
Kiang, when he saw some men in a
boat, dipping water into buckets. He
inquired why they did that, and was
told that at the bottom of the bay
there was a spring, remembered since
the time when the present river-bed
was dry land, and that this spring
water was highly esteemed in cookery.
Here, then, he concluded, he found
that special water of the Yangtze
which, with Ming Shan leaves, made
the best cup of tea in the world.
TO QUALIFY AS “BEST MAN”
Man Who Has Risen From the Ranks
to High Position Describes Re-
quisites One Must Possess.
‘What constitutes the “best man” in
any line of commercial activity? was
a question put to the New York agent
of a steel corporation who came up
from a puddler in his company’s plant.
The requisites to make such a man, in
his opinion, are:
“Amenable to discipline and able to
take criticism in good form.
“Able to apply fairness and consid
eration to those who through force of
circumstances are placed under him.
“Must not hesitate to criticise when
criticism is needed, and for the sole
benefit of his company.
“Performs such work as comes to
him with the best at his command.
“Does not pay too serious attention
to the clock and is willing to work a
few minutes overtime without protest.
“Takes the assignment of new and
difficult work to him with good grace.
“Always ready to profit by his asso-
ciations with his fellow workers.”
Keeping House Plants Healthy.
No one who has not seen a really
well care for and healthy collection
of house plants can imagine the charm
and beauty they can lend to the room
in which they live. Unhealthy plaats
are depressing, and unless one is will
ing to give the window garden a rea-
sonable amount of care it is better to
dispense with it altogether The house
plants will cheerfully repay any in-
telligent attention, though they resent
meddling. The real gardener the one
who has the true love of flowers at
heart, knows when to leave well
enough alone. Do not disturb the roots
at all during the winter unless they
are attacked by insects, for most
plants are resting and cannot then
put out new shoots. This is particu-
larly true of such plants as palms, rub-
ber plants and ferns, which had best
be shifted and fed with fertilizers only
in the summer. Soft wooded plants,
like geraniums, are not easily injured
by transplanting; but even so if they
need extra feeding on account of large
growth, it is much better given in
liquid form.
Loyalty,
For those who are not merely loyal,
but also enlightened, loyalty, never
losing the definiteness and concrete-
ness of its devotion to some near and
directly fascinating cause, sees itself
to be in actual spiritual unity with
the common cause otf all the loyal,
whoever they are. The great cause
for all the loyal is in reality the
cause of the spread and the further-
ance of the cause of the universal loy-
alty of all mankind; a cause which
peobody can serve except by choosing
his own nearer and more immediate
appreciated cause—the private cause
which is directly his own—his family,
his community, his friendship, his cal}
ing, and the calling of those who serve
with him. Yet such personal serv-
fce—your special life cause, your task,
your vocation—is your way of further-
ing the ends of universal humanity.
—Josiah Royce, “Loyalty and In-
sight.
To Remove Paper.
An excellent way to remove paper
from the wall when about to repaper
a room, says Modern Priscilla, is to
make a rather thin paste of flour and
water and go over the paper with a
large brush or cloth, wetting every
part. After allowing this to stand for
a little while the paper may be taken
off in great strips withlut spreading
a particle of dirt or dust.
among patients in a condition of acute
| mental confusion, who are always
greatly improved and often cured en-
tirely by a few injections. The excited
and victims of insomnia become calm
and lucid.
In cases of acute mania, dementia,
epileptic fits and certain cases of mel |
ancholia gcod results have been ob
tained. The oxygen treatment is now
being tried upon other forms of in-
sanity.
HARD LINES FOR BUSY MAN
One Unfortunate Circumstance He
Could Stand, but the Other Was
Almost Too Much.
He was a very®busy man, and she
was a very pretty girl. She insisted
upon having a love letter every day.
She got it.
“You write the loveliest letters,
dear!” she said.
80 very, very busy all the time, 1
think it is splendid of you to think of
me!”
“I don’t forget you,” he replied.
“My secretary has instructions to
write you a letter for me to sign every
morning. He is a most efficient and
capable young man.”
“And you don’t know how greatly I
appreciate the flowers and candy you
send me every week.”
“I'm glad you get them.
secretary to make a memo to send
you some every Saturday.”
“How sympathetic! And it is so
thoughtful of you to think of the plays
I like best and the books I prefer.”
“It’s a pleasure to know you are
pleased. My secreta~y, gets the tick-
ets and picks out the books.
very capable fellow.”
Two months later the very busy
man said:
“Dodgast him!
how in thunder can 1 break in an-
other secretary?’—Judge.
Time Wasted in Mourning.
Every day I see a certain fellow sit-
ting on the bank of the stream and
mourning for the water that has
passed. He fails to realize that he
can never grind his grist that way.
He started out to be a colonel, but
corporal was as far as he got, so he
quit. He fails to realize that there
would be a whole lot more satisfac-
tion and money in being a good cor-
poral than in crying on the banks of
a stream hecause he couldn't be a
colonel. If the good Lord intended
him to be a colonel he will get there
some day—but not by sitting in the
corner and crying. The colonels are
made of the fellows who were the best
corporals, and no one should keep that
fact in mind more than the corporals.
But the mourner sits and sits and
gazes pathetically down the stream
at the water disappearing around the
bend. You know and I know, but he
doesn’t. It never returns.—Kansas
City Star.
First Aid.
David was capitalist and consequent-
ly also philanthropist. To him one day
came Simple Simon and begged
the loan of a dollar for three
weeks. Simon got the dollar on condi-
tion of paying back two dollars at
the end of the period agreed on. He
was hurrying away well content with
his bargain when David came to the
door and called after him: “Just
a minute, Simon,” said he; “I’ve been
thinking that you are a poor working
man, and that it will be hard for you
to scrape together two dollars in three
weeks. Now I want to make things
easy for you. Suppose you pay me
right now cone dollar of what you owe
me. Then when the loan falls due
you'll have only one dollar to pay.”
Simple Simon gratefully accepted
the suggestion, and David repocketed
the dollar.—New York Evening Post.
Scribes and Paraphrases Defined.
Taken from the examination paper
of one of my scholars, writes “Teach-
er” tc the Glasgow News:
“The scribes and Paraphrases were
cheats and hipocrytes now a days
they are called lawyers.”
The perpetrator of the above, a boy
of ten, makes up for his want of
book-learning in a superabundance of
mother-wit. An example of his quali:
fication in this respect occurred only
a few Sundays ago.
He had brought me the verbal mes-
sage that one of the class was down
with pneumonia, and he had pro-
nounced the last word with a “p.” 1
took the trouble to correct him.
“Oh, I kent fine, 'twis ‘neumonia,’”
he said, unperturbed: “I jist say’d
‘pneumonia’ so as these yins’—and
he indicated the rest of the class—
“wid unnerstaun’ us.”
“And when you are

There is a saying that “a man’s first
right is to be born well.” It is a constant
reproach to motherhood to see a puny,
pining baby grow to be a puling, peevish
boy. It is a reproach because proper
preparation and care will give the moth-
er the health without which she cannot
have a healthy child. The use of Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription as a pre-
parative for the baby’s coming gives the
mother abundant health. The birth hour

testimony of many women who never

Coins of Small Value.
Doubtless the smallest coin in the
world circulates in the Malay penin-
sula, simply a thin wafer made from
the resinous juice of a tree, and has
current value of about 1-10,000th of a
cent. In the southern parts of Rus-
sia the peasants use a coin of such
small value that a quarter of a mil-
lion of them are worth no more than
$1.25. The old Japanese mouseng was
worth 1-112th of an American cent.
In Portugal the reis is the lowest
standard of value, but no 1-reis
pieces are coined. A 3-reis piece is
equivalent to 6-100ths of a cent.
Quite Simple.
“A savings bank,” said the child,
in answer to the teacher, “is a place
where you can deposit money today
and draw it out tomorrow by giving
a week's notice.”
Too Good an Excuser.
A young man, having broken an ap-
pointment with Doctor Franklin, came
to him the following day and made a
very handsome apology for his ab-
sence. He was proceeding when the
doctor stopped him with: “My good
boy, say no more; you have said too
much already; for the man who is so
good at making an excuse is seldom
good at anything else.”—Life.
