It is often said that tea eheits are lined with tinfoil, but just as there is no lenl in a lead pencil so there Is no tin In this tinfoil. The thin lining consist ot leld, and is said to be the purest lead that can be found. Among the countless undeveloped resources of the Celestial Empire is a supply of load which would yield millions annually if properly Worked, and from this inexhaustible supply the Chinese take what they need for making linings for the tea ohests. Lead Isjmoltedln small vessels and poured in while hot Before It has time to cool it Is pressed Into a sort of mould, aud when enough squares have been produced they are soldered together, ami the sheet thus formed Is placed in the chest as a lining. Then the top layer of lead is soldered on, and nil possibility of tho tea losing strength on the voyugo is at an end. The load Is so pure and the solder used is so fine that tho lining of an empty chest is worth much more than tho chest itself, and Is In great demand for making the best quality of solder. How the smooth, tin-like appoaranco can be produced without the aid of polishing or other machinery would bo a mystery, were it not for the fact that the native Chinaman is even more industrious and ingenious when at home than when be has spent a few years In this country and begun to entertain hopes of decent pay and reason ablojbours. Ctn(ii.ffti of Moiln rn PiiMici Surely I have established my thesis ihat dirt Is only matter in a wrong place. Chemistry, like a thrifty housewife, economizes overy scrap. The horse-shoe nails dropped in the streets aro carefully collected, and reappear as swords and suns. The main Ingredient of the ink with which I now write was probably once the broken hoop of an old beer bar rel. The chipping of the travoling tlnkor nro mixed with the parings of horses' hoofs and the worst kind ot woollen rags, and these are worked up intoan exquisite blue dye, which graces the dress of courtly dames. The dregs of port wine, caroiuuy uecnnipu uy tno toper, nro taken in tho morning as a seidlltz pow der, to remove the effect ot the debauch. The offal of the streets and the wasting of coal gas reappear, oarofully preserved in the lady's smelling bottle, or are u&ed by her to llavor bln.no nvwigjs for her friends. All this thrift of material Is an imitation ot the economy of nature, which allows no waste. Everything has Its destined placo In the proojss of the universe, in which thero is uot a blado of grass or even a microba too much, if we possessed the knowledge to apply them to their fittinE purposes.

The Cunnrdor Captains Wrrn Satisfied that tlm llmlirln Could Make New York. London, Jan. 3. On tho arrival nt Liverpool of tho Canard line steamer (Inllla, Capt. Ferguson, from Now York, Deo. 24, for Liverpool, a press representa tive nt once boarded the steamer and questioned Capt. Ferguson In rrlation to tho report that he had refused assistance to the Umbrla. Cflpt. Ferguson said that he would de cline to make any statement until he had communicated with the headquarters tno uunaru company. Both Captain Ferguson and his officers and the passengers on the Qallia were de lighted to loarn that tho Umbria had arrived safely, nlthough they seem to have bnd no serious doubt on that score. At the Cuuard company's olllce It was said, after Captain Ferguson's report had been received, that tho Umbrla did not signal to the Gallia to stand by to save life, nnd that, therefore, the Qallia pro ceeded on her voyage. There is a growing impression in tho minds of the public that tho Qnllia and the TJnibria understood each other aud that the Umbria meant that its signals should ho Interpreted and acted upon just ns they were interpreted by the Gallia, tho commanders of both vessels being satisfied that tho Umbrla could make its way to Now York unaided and in Bttfoty. Tho ofllcinls of the Cuuard line, from the beginning, placed no contldeuco iu the story that the Gallia refused as sistance to the Umbria. They all along regarded the alleged refusal to bo based on tho imagination, of some of the pas sengers. They pointed out that It would tend greatly to the advantage of the captain ot the Gallia to tow the Umbria to New York, and that it was just possible that the signals of tho Umbria were mistaken.
