'
A Notab'e Engagement.
There is a fascination In the motion
picture which appeals to everyone.
This Is especially true of Lyman H.
Howe's ever welcome Ltfeorama to be
seen in Centennial Hall on Thursday
evening, December 13. It is by common
acceptance the most popular and perfect
exhibition of this kind In the world
to day. Over a mUliorT patrons to
whom the name Lyman H. Howe is a
synooym for an attraction which in
variably makes good every promise
made, await Its semi-annual visits with
ever renewed interest. The new
program is precisely the kind people
want. It Is clean, clear, wholesome
from beginning to end. - It cannot tail
alike to Interest the learned age as well
as delight the infant mind. Tbe scenes
an- not confined to any one cla of
subjects, but the scope of the new
program is . world-wide. Covers the
entire domain of human interests and
activities at home and abroad. It is
therefore as instructive as it is enter
taining, ..The . great, popularity ,and
reputation established locally by Mr.
Howe on his many previous visits
presages a record attendance.

THE CAMPHOR LAUREL.
Row the Dm I Extracted From
the Wood of the Tree.
The camphor laurel, from which the
greater part of the camphor of com
merce Is produced. Is a native of
China, Japan, Formosa and Cochin
China. It Is a hardy, long lived tree
and sometime prows to a great size.
t has evergreen leaves, yellowish
white flowers In panicles and Is a
very orumnentul tree, the trunk run
ning up to a helk'lit of twenty or
thirty feet before branching. The
fruit Is very much like a bluck cur
rant, . In the extraction of camphor tbe
wood Is first cut Into small chips, and
tbe chips are put Into water In a still
aftd steamed. Tbe head of tbe still Is
filled with straw, nnd as the steam
carried off the camphor in vapor It
is deposited In little grains arouud tbe
straw.
The crude camphor Is then heated
In a vessel, from which the steam Is
allowed to escape through a ,small
aperture. The camphor sublimes In a
aeinltransparent cake. In the man
ufacture of camphor the tree Is nec
essarily destroyed, but by a rigid law
of tbe lands In which the tree grows
another Is planted in tbe place of every
one that is cut tlowu. The wood la
highly valued for carpenter's work.
Camphor was unknown to the
Greeks and Romans and was first
brought to Europe by the Arabs.
.' BROEK, IN HOLLAND.
It la Bald to Be the Cleanest Towa
la the World.
, The cleanest town In the world Is
said to be Brock, In Holland. It is only
a few miles from the capital, and has
been famous for Its cleanliness from
time Immemorial. It Is also notable on
account of the fanciful style of Its
houses, and yards and gardens and
streets, l
The people, though only peasants, are
aU.'wej) to do, and nil feel a pride In
their tpwn. It seems to be tbe first
business of their lives to keep their
houses freshly painted, their gardens in
perfect order and their yards and
streets as elenn as a new pin. No carts
are allowed hi the streets, and no cattle.
Though the raising of stock and the
making of butter and cheese are their
occupations, a stranger ' would never
Imagine that there were any cattle In
the. rsloa,-iia lens be went to tbe beau
tiful tVera ateadows at the back of the
bouses or the stables out there, Where
cows are kept In stalls scrubbed and
washed like a kitchen.
Tbe streets are too fine and neat for
the feet of the -animals to step on. All
are paved with "polished stone, 'Inter
mingled with bricks of different colors,
and kept so scrupulously clean that a
lady could walk anywhere' In white
satin slippers. Pearsou'a Weely, .
1 ; Deadly Snakes.
'' The deadliest of snakes Is said to be
tbe mamba; an African colira; It files
at everybody and everything; It goes
out 'of its way-to quarrel; it will even
come down from a tree to solicit an
Interview. ! Over In India there is the
great king coliro, or hamadryad, a slr.e
larger, quite as fierce It bos been
known to chase a man on horseback;
be had to ride for bis life but his
poison Is a degree less virulent. Tbe
difference, however, may be considered
negligible and ceases to Interest the
patient after a few minutes. Among
tbe Australian cobras, the pit vipers
of America and the great west African
vipers there are siecies with evil repu
tations, and the most alarming feature
Is that tbe aggressive snakes are all
desperately poisonous.
The Slse of Bolivia.
The area of Bolivia is not accurate
ly known, yet it is probable that its
present area Is not far from 000,000
square miles, which Is the equivalent
of the area of Germany, France and
Spain combined. From the lowlands
on the east and southeast tbe land
rises, sometimes by easy slope and
sometimes ' by abrupt uplift to the
snowcapped peak of Sornta, with Its
altitude of near 25,000 feet and to tbe
pyramid of Illlmanl, which Is given aa
21,300 feet In height. La Pas ilea, at
an elevation of 11,000 feet above sea
level and Polos! at nearly 14,000 feet.
A few miles 'west of La. Pas lies the
Inland sea of Tltlcaca, at an elevation
of 13,000 feet. '" '
HI roaltlaa la the Matter.
"Gracious T' exclaimed the fond wife,
coming In her husband's den and find
ing him smoking his pipe and reading.
"This room is thick with smoke. I
don't see bow you can stand to sit in
here." '
"You can't?" responded the brutal
husband. "Well, I don't stand to sit
in here; I sit to sit In here. Did you
think you bad married a freak?"
It Is said that this was tbe first time
in their married life that she slammed
a door on leaving him.

Wit, like every other power, has Its
boundaries. Its success depends on the
aptitude of oUiers to receive impres
sions, and that as some bodies. Indis
soluble by beat, can set the furnace
and crucible at defiance, there are
minds upou which the rays of fancy
may be pointed without effect nnd
which no fire of sentiment can agitate
