An Opium Farm.
Not far from Macao, at the morith of
the Canton river, China, is an opium
"farm." Standing in a courtyard is
the great wooden building devoted to
opium manufactures, and in its vestl
iiules are heaps of brown balls, not un
like eoeoanuls. Two coolies, seated,
cut tlit'iii open and remove the black,
jamlike substance they contain—the
compressed poppy, 'i'iie outer covering
is a thick layer of dried leaves, in
side the building the whole place is
full of smoke, arising from a hundred
charcoal tires in open earthenware
"chattis," placed in a row around the
walls. Over each lire rests a shallow
brass pan in which bubbles a mixture
of poppy and water. This mixture is
strained through paper and passes on
to be more carefully boiled In the next
room, where the process is exactly
similar. From there It goes to another
room, where the sirup is reduced to the
consistency of treacle over slow fires:
111 another building the opium is pack
ed In tiny cans and placed In cases and
sealed with the government seal.
A Banker's Generosity.
One day Humboldt was dining with
Mendelssohn, the banker, and, an un
usual thing for him, was very silent.
Ilis host, remarking it, observed to
llumboidt that he was sure lie must
lie ill.
"Xo," said Humboldt, "but I am in
great trouble. Only ten minutes be
fore leaving my apartment to come
here I received from my landlord a
note informing me that he had sold the
house <n which 1 reside and that I
must move. Tile very thought drives
mi! to despair. I really cannot bear to
move again."
Mendelssohn gradually led lUimboldt
into conversation, during which he
found time to write a note and receive
an answer to it. He then took Hum
boldt aside and said: "By this note 1
learn that 1 am now the owner of the
house in which you reside. The condi
tion, however, upon which I have be
come its possessor is that you continue
to occupy your apartment in it as long
as you live."
Wanted a Bargain.
One day a small Cincinnati boy came
to a halt before a sign over a desk in
the office of the express company. It
gave the rate for money orders, and
after studying it for a few minutes he
walked up to the cashier and said bold
ly:
"I want a money order."
"How large a one, my boy?" the
clerk inquired benignantly.
"Well, let's see," pondered the little
fellow. "The rate for a ten dollar or
der is 8 cents, isn't: it?"
"Yes; that's right."
"Well, I want a drum and pair of
roller skates and a new straw hat and
some candy. Ten dollars will be
enough."
Then lie lished through his pockets
and triumphantly placed a nickel and
three coppers before the astonished
clerk. It took ten minutes to convince
the youngster that nothing less than
SIO.OB could buy a money order for
Slo.—St. bHii (J lobe-Democrat.
Boone's Portrait In Oil.
There never was but one oil portrait
of Daniel Boone painted from life, and
that was by Chester Harding, a dis
tinguished artist of Boston, who came
to Missouri in .Tune, IS2O, and painted
it in the residence of Flanders Calla
way, Boone's son-in-law, where Boone
was then living, near the village of
Marthasville, in Warren county. The
Itev. James E. Welch, one of the oldest
Baptist preachers in the state and fa
ther of Aikman Welch, attorney general
of Missouri during Governor Gamble's
administration, sat in Boone's bed be
hind Itoone for him to lean against
while Harding painted the picture, the
pioneer being too feeble lo sit alone.
Harding's portrait of Boone now hangs
in the state capitol at Frankfort, Ky.—

The Glass Snake.
The slowworin is tlie snake which
country people tell you has the peculiar
property of breaking itself into bits,
each piece afterward surviving. The
truth differs slightly from the legend.
The slowworm is a timid creature and
when first captured tightens all its
muscles, thus reducing itself to a re
markably rigid state, in which condi
tion it will 110 doubt snap like a dry
twig; but, needless to say, only the
upper and vital portions survive the
ordeal.—London Globe.
What the Jury Thought.
During a trial fon assault in Mel
bourne a club, a rail, an ax handle, a
knife and a shotgun were exhibited as
the Instruments with which the deed
was done. It was also shown that the
assaulted man defended himself with
a scythe, a revolver, a pitchfork, a
chisel, a hand saw and a dog. The
jury decided that they'd have given a
sovereign apiece to have seen the fight.

f*aid For the Supplies.
A story said lo be characteristic is
told of a certain judge. It seems that
when he convened court at one <>f the
towns on his circuit it was found that
no pens, ink or paper had been pro
vided, and upon inquiry it developed
that 110 county funds were available
for this purpose. The judge expressed
himself somewhat forcefully, then drew
some money from his own pocket, lie
was about t<i hand this to the clerk
when a visiting lawyer, a high priced
imported article, brought onto defend
a case of some importance, spoke up in
1111 aside plainly audible over the room.
"Well," he remarked, with infinite
contempt, "I've seen some pretty bad
courts, but this—well, this is the
limit!"
The old judge flushed darkly.
"You are fined $25 for contempt, sir!
Hand the money to the clerk!" he said,
and when the pompous visitor had
humbly complied he continued.
"Now, Mr. Clerk, go out and get
what pens, ink and paper the court
may require, and if there is anything
left over you can give the gentleman
his change."—Harper's Weekly.
A Genius at Excuses.
"While I was stage managing a piece
some time ago," said a theatrical mag
nate, "one of my show girls showed
an independence of spirit which was
superb. She was always late for re
hearsal. Her excuses were great. Alt
her friends and relations had a series
of maladies which were remarkable in
their number and diversity. She nurs
ed them all until they naturally gave
til) the ghost. About an hour was
enough to bury most of them. Then
she caught 011 to mechanical devices.
Street cars were invariably late—just
as late as she was, in fact. Then in
turn came certain inconveniences in
hotels. The elevator was continually
sticking until finally came the denoue
ment. It was in Philadelphia. The
siren did not appear until nearly two
hours after the proper time. 1 looked
at her and waited. The excuse came
glibly.
" 'Oh,' she panted, 'l'm so sorry, but
they are repairing the stairs at the
hotel, and I could not get down until
they brought a ladder!'
"I recognized genius in that girl."—

How the Cook Did It.
lie had a number of guests to din
ner, and he was doing the carving, lie
had deftly taken two slices off the
joint, and lie was turning off a third
when.the blade struck a skewer, made
a sliding motion and came out at the
top, with the result that the proposed
slice looked like a dead leaf curled up
by the sun's rays.
He could not say intense things in
the presence of his guests, so he froze
his wife with a glance, dug the skewer
out viciously, made a grim joke con
cerning the indigestibility of roasted
wood and ordered little Willie, who
had made several attempts to speak, to
keep silent or leave the table.
His evident temper led to an embar
rassing silence, and Willie saw an
opening that he could not resist.
"Cook burned her nose orful!" ho
announced.
"Too bad," said tlie mother, glad of
any excuse for conversation. "How
did she do it?"
"Why," answered Willie very apro
pos, "trying to pull them skewers oe
with her teeth!"— London Scraps.
An Indignant Artist.
The sensational offers said to have
been made by theatrical managers to
the principal actor in a recent murder
trial must have made professional
stars feel very much as did the painter
Ilaydon in lK4t> when two of his finest
pictures were being shown at the
Egyptian hall, and the public thronged
into another room where General Tom
Thumb was 011 view. "They rush by
thousands to see Tom Thumb," wrote
the disappointed painter in his diary.
"Their eyes are open, but their sense
is shut. It is an Insanity, a rabies, a
madness, a furor, a dream!" Another
entry later on runs: "Tom Thumb had
12,000 people last week, K. 11. Ilaydon
133% (the half a little girl). Exquisite
taste of the English people!" We do
not seem to have progressed much
since then.--London Chronicle.
Dis .leter of a Fine Wire.
Should you ever find it necessary to
obtain the diameter of a line wire, it
may be done in this manner: Wind it
carefully around a piece of pencil in
one layer for an inch or so, that each
turn is touching tin? previous one. Then
measure exactly an inch along the wire
and count the number of turns in the
Inch. You then have the information.
Thus, if there are eighteen turns the
wire is one-eighteenth of an inch in di
ameter.
