In February, as a rule, the Juice iy gathered, the poppy plant being then full flower and of a height of three four feet, each stein having from two i to five capsules of the size of a duck's egg. Before the capsules are pierced the fallen petals of the flowers nre carefully gathered and sorted accord ing to condition in three grades and ' then nre heated over a slow flre and formed into thin cakes, to be used • for tlie covering of the drug when col | leoted. The piercing of the pods re | quires great skill, and upon it largely ' depends the yield. The opium farmer | aud his assistants each carry a small ■ j lance-like tool, which has three or ) four short, sharp prongs, and with this a half dozen perpeudicular cuts nre made in each capsule or seed pod of the poppy. The juice begins to flow at once, but quickly congeals. The > ! day after the thickened Juice is care ) j fully gathered, being scraped off with i a small iron trowel, and the mass thus gathered is put into nn earthen vessel i ond kept carefully stirred for a month j or more, great care being taken to ) have it well aired, but not exposed . I to the sun. The material is now ex- I a mined by expert testers, who deter mine Its grade or quality, and then the whole is put into a large box, 3 I where it is worked very much in the i | same fashion as baker's dough to give i It the required consistency. The opium is now made into balls for ex ! port; the natives wade about in the 1 i large vats containing the paste-like j | drug and hand it out to hundreds of ; I ballmakers sitting around the room. I Every man has a spherical brass cup ! lined with the poppy flower petals bo -1 I fore him. Into this is pressed the reg ulation quantity of opium. From 1 tills brnss eup. when properly pressed, I the opium ball is transferred to an other man, who gives it a coating of clay. This gives the dnig, when ready for shipment, the appearance of a fair 112 sized cannon ball. When well pre pared In this manner, opium will keep 5 its properties for fifteen years or D more.

A BEGGAR OF KHIVA. lie Wns \o!«y and n Thing of Stored* ant' l'ntuhea. In an open square, where thertust pall forbade sight or breath, I directed my steps toward the source of a throbbing roll that ceaselessly wove Itself In with the no!.-" of voices and the pattering of unshod feet of beasts. As I neared it the noise became detached from the hubbub, a distinct and individual thing, which insistently claimed attention and made the vi ry in te3 in the air dance to time. Under a willow tree by the water ditch that defined the square sat a bent old man. unbelievably ragged, g , tern v r 1 hi m iny khalats that they did not seem like constructed gar ments at all. but strings of tatters and laps collected and hung on his fat, weak body. His head was bent on his bri'..st, and his eyes were half closed. On his stomach was a wooden bowl, with a skin drum head stretched across it, and on this drum head he beat in cessantly with his knuckles and his fist. The motion was so automatic and deadly regular In its recurrent changes that it seemed almost as If lie were a clockwork figure set at the edge of the busy market to record the passage of time. I tlung some coppers 011 the brass begging tray by his side and went off, unconsciously adjusting my steps to his beating. He made the trivial barter and the driving of laden animals seem vapid and futile, and my bit of charity sickened me.

It has sent an interviewer to an expert school teach er to find out how it is that children whose parents "can do nothing with them" uo not give the least trouble in school. The lirst interview is printed in the March number of THE NEW IDEA, and deals with ''The Lazy Child and the Un willing Child." Some of the points made will surprise and perhaps not convince the average parent. For instance: "Do you, then, not recognize such quality as laziness in children?" asked the reporter, feeling the infec tion of Miss Farrell's optimism. "No. Those who know child na ture best tell its that the principle of childhood is activity If we do not give a child Romething to do that is suited to him, or if the thing is not presented to him in a way that will appeal to him, then he will refuse it ami develop his activity in some ••other way." "But surely, to some extent, a child n u-t do the thii g that does not appeal to him." This new doc trine of taking the child's nature in to account WHS decidedly upsetting. "But why? Everything may be made to appal to a child. Frankly, 1 do not believe in a child doing a thing simply because it is good for it." This is a fair sample of the treatment of the subject, which w II be foi.nd at least suggestive to those aggrieved indi viduals, active parents afflicted with lazy children. OASTORIA.

A QKei'r Old Legend of the Clfy of , Mexico. ; As Is generally known, senor, many , bad things are met with at night in j ' the streets of the city, but this wailing j ! woman, La Llorona, is the very worst I !of tiiem all. She is worse by far than j the Yaea de Lumbre, that at midnight comes rf or til from the potrero of San Sebastian and goes galloping through the streets like a blazing whirlwind, breathing forth from her nostrils smoke and tiames, because the fiery cow, se nor, while a dangerous animal to look at, really does nobody any harm, and i La Llorona is as harmful as she ' can be. Seeing her walking along quietly— j at the times when she is not running , and shrieking for her lost children she seems a respectable person, only odd looking because of her white skirt and the white reboso with which her head is covered, and anybody might speak to her. But whoever does speak . to her In that very same moment dies! No one who has stopped her to talk | with her ever, has lived to tell what j happens at that terrible encounter, but j It is generally known that what-does j happen Is this: Slowly she turns to- : ward the one who has spoken, and • slowly she opens the folds of her white reboso, and tb< n is seen a bare grin ning skull set fast to a bare skeleton, and from her fleshless jaws comes one single Icy cold breath that freezes Into j Instnnt death whoever feels It. After j that, shrieking again for her lost chil- j dren, she rushes onward, the white gleam of her gashing the darkness, and | In the morning the one who spoke to her is found lying dead there with a look of despairing horror frozen fast I In his dead eyes. What Is most wonderful is that she t Is seen in the same hour by different people In places widely apart, one see- | ing her hurrying across the atrium of , the cathedral, another beside the Arcos i de San Cosine and a third near the Salto del Augua, over by the prison of Beleu, and all In the very same mo- : ment of time. She is so generally known, senor, and so greatly feared that nowadays few people stop her to speak with her, and that Is fortunate. But her loud, keen waitings and the sound of her running feet are heard often and especially on nights of storm. I myself have heard them, senor, but I have never seen her.

There Is i still a willing acceptance of the titled ; aristocracy and also of an upper house, the vast majority of whose members I sit there by the right of birth only, I without regard to their lndivfdual merits. I No doubt the British people could I change these things speedily and with i out violence if they really desired to get rid of this inheritance from feudal ism. But they have not got rid of It, and this Is evidence enough that they do not wish to do so. The British seo'no reason to abolish a state of affairs which the American people look at with amazed wonder as a survival of the dark ages. A native American finds it wholly Impossible to understand the mental attitude of a certain man of letters In London, who Justified his Ingrained torylsm by the assertion that he simply, would not be ruled by his equals.—Reader, THE WILD CARROT. One of the Mo*t 111 fereat 1I»K of Oar Native I'lnnta. A weed has been defined as "a plant that persists in growing where it Is not desired." Surely the wild carrot Is a most weedy weed from the point of view of that definition and of the dis like of the farmer. As to the per sistence, our veteran farmer-naturalist John Burroughs tells us: "Cut off the head of the wild carrot, and in a week there are five heads in room of the one. Cut off these, and by fall there are ten looking defiance at you from the same root." The only fault of the wild carrot, as of other so called weeds, Is too great success in life. It Is guilty only of persistence. But from a nature lover's point of view there are, strictly speak ing, no weeds. No plant is disliked. On the contrary, the more a plant Is able to strive successfully for life the more of interest it Is. We can also see and appreciate the beauty without the "weedy" dislike. If in this spirit observers will ex amine the wild carrot the verdict will be that it Is one of the prettiest and most interesting of our native plants. The beauty is especially noticeable In the full bloom, or Queen Anne's lace, form. Perhaps some may regard the bird's nest form as the most Interest ing.—Exchange. Ills Latin. "Why do you put so many Latin quo tatious into your speeches?" asked th. friend. "I'm sure most of us don't un derstand them." "That's just the point. Misery love, company.

Must Use The Knife Said the Surgeon, but Dr. David Kennedy's Fa vorite Remedy was taken and the Knife Avoided. The Union and Advertiser of Rochester, N. Y.. recently published the following in terest ing account of how William W. Adams of 127 South Avenue, that city, was saved from a painful operation by the use of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. Mr. Adams said: "Three years ago I was taken with kidney disease very badly: at times I was completely prostrated; in fact, WHS so bad that the day was set for the doc tors to perform an operation upon me. But I decided I would not submit. I had been putin hot water baths, and, in fact, nearly every means was tried to help me. Upon the day set for the operation I commenced the uao of DR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY and from that moment began to gain, and it was not long before I was entirely cured and have had no return of the trouble since.
