AUSTRALIAN Sonn AN INTOXICANT, Their own stimulant, kava, they con- tinue to use in great quantities, and many of the Europeans have contracted a liking for it. All the Wairrapans have n taste of it, and marvel that any white man can acquire a penchant for such stuff. Its flavor resembles soap suds more than anything else one can com- pare it with. The root used is botani- cally known as that of the piper methisté cum ; itis hard and woody, hence tha objeet of the chewing, which liberates the juice of the root mere freely than any other process. Europeans grate tho root and pound it, but admit that the liquor is not equal to that chewed. In Sumos the preparation of the kava bowl is attended with very great cere- mony, only the young unmarried girls being allowed to chew it. The root is cut up into fine pieces, and the girls, who are digeoted by the prettiest of them, first rinse their mouths, take up a piece, and when sufficiently masticated and formed into a ball, spit itintoa bowl. The chief girl then ealls for water, and after washing her hands directs one of her companions to pour {| on the water while she stirs the root with her hand. When enough” water ix in, and the balls are properly mixed with the ingredient, she takes up a strainer made of fibres of hibiscus, and passes it from side to side of the bowl When the strainer is saturated she lifts it high above the bowl and squeezes the balls through the strainer in her hand. This is continued until the kava bowl is ready. It is contended by some of the Euro- peans who use chewed root that the mastication is perfectly dry and is a mere crushing process, but of course an amount of saliva must get incorporated in the process. The medicinal properties of kava are tonic and nervous sedative, and it is to these effects, and not to its flavor, that the taste of the drink arises © I tse THE INVENTION OF INK, When ink was first introduced does not seem to have been decided, bunt given the paper and the pen, a colored medinm which wonla show on a light surface was so obvions a want, and one s0 readily found, that there is no ex- traordinary credit due to the unknown inventor. It appears to be only of com- paratively late years that black ink has been almost universal. Roman ink was red, purple and gold, and inks of blue, green, violet and other shades were not It is said that simple as is the composition of ink, none equal in beauty and color to that used by the ancients; the Baxon MSS. written in England exceed in color any- thing of the kind.” Modern ink makers will deny the superiority of theancients ; but who shall say whether words written in the ink manufactured to-day will stand as vividly centuries hencs a those Saxon MSS. have stood? It difficult fo see how the writing materi of the present day can be improve on, for convenience at least, setting aside questions of lasting inks, the generation that uses them cannot settle. Paper, rough or smooth, fluent inks of any color that the writer may believe suitable to his eyes, pens as fine asa needleor as blunt as a spade, are all to be bought in every street. The great lack of the age seems to be ideas at once more novel and sensible in the record of which these serviceable mater- ials may be employed ——— AI A CATLESS CITY. uncommon. "we possess A — One of the queerest of themany queer things about *‘this here mining camp,” as most of the natives still eall Leadville, isthat in all the length and breadth thereof there lives not a single cat. Cats have been imported here by hundreds snd in all varieties of color, breeding and size, but not one has ever survived the second week of its residence. The mid- night serenade, the back yard clawing contest, and ihe bootjack act are alike unknown to the Leadvillian, and his nightly slumber is sound and sweet—a calm and undisturbed repose. The healthiest, sleekest cat in Bt Louis, if brought to Leadville, would lose all interest in life the moment it reached here, and, after moping around in a sickly, «lisconsolate way for a few days, rasignedly have a fit and give up the ghost. A saloon-keeper brought a big Maltese from Denver, hoping the aniraal wonld survive the fits long eno agh to be acclimated ; but it was no use. The cat had a fit the first day, two or three the second, and then the number of attacks increased until, as the saloon man said, ‘there were more fits than cats arwl the eat had to give in.” However, as th ere are no rats in Lead- ville, there is no real need of cats, and it makes very little difference whether they live or die, The thin atmosphere at this latitnde ds as fatal to the vermin as to their foe, and the inhabitants are thus mercifully ‘spared the infliction of both.

There are some farmers who say, “ It will not pay to use Phos- phate ; it costs too much.” Some of these farmers toil year after year on almost barren fields, and hardly raise half a crop of any- thing. Suppose they would buy a ton or two of Baugh's $25 Phosphate every year, and raise on one acre what they now raise on three, and make their poor land good; get plenty of wheat, rye, grass, straw, manure and, the most needful of all, money. Will it pay? Of course it will. There is nothing a farmer can buy that will pay him so well for his investment in so short a time as Phosphate.
