How the Tea Plant Mtarted.
As you drink a cup of tea do yon ever
"think how tea came to grow? Tell your"
next visitor the story. " A Persian prince,
on his way to meet his betrothed, vowed
that he would not sleep until lie saw
Imr. After traveling seven days, he
topped,to rest under a shade tree, and
there, being no longer able to resist the
temptation, he fell into a sound sleep
When he awakened he. was, so sorrv
that he cut off his eyelids and threw
them on the ground. From them grew
. the .tea plant. It is rather unfortunate
that the story stops here, because it
would, be interesting to know what the
lady thought.' of,, a sweetheart without
eyelids, and whether it wohld be possi
ble for them to grow again. New York

have called a mild manner. On theyid

ion in the breasts of their adversaries, if
being part of the customary ritual of the
war dance, until the thin end of the pha
lanx .overlapped the Mania, and stood be
tween them aud the gates of the pa.
Suddenly a change was visible in the
antics pf the' Ngatiroa. Their gesticula
tions became violent, their eyes protrud
ed, their heads were thrown, back; aud
their throats , uttered -a '. mighty ( shout.
As the cry passed their lips a stream of
warriors rushed up the banks of the
gully and joined the cluster pf their com
rades, now swollen to a compact mass of ,
600 men.' ' . . ;
When the Mania realized the ruse prac- i
ticed noon, them , they tie ver for a mo-1

ner born, she must have been rent in i

hold. An active young fellow,,, he had 60
twisted hu: hands and arnis into' 'the girl's j
hair, and ' fought so vigorously with his
legs., that he could not be removed until
he was knocked down senseless.

: V Vonderfnl Sense or Smell. '
The buzzard's wonderful-sense of smell
is a curious subject that has often been
discussed, 'the -discussion of the matter i
haying resulted in, a general uniformity
of opinion among scientists that they lo
cate their food by their sense of smell
alone.' C. L. Hopkins, the noted biologist,
says that he has noticed that in Florida
they never leave the roots where the
night is spent, especially on damp, foggy
mornings, until the - moisture ' has been
.dried by, the sun. They then move slowly
across the wind until a "scent" is struck,
when they move more slowly. ,",up the
wind" until the carrion is located. Some
times they will drift down the wind past
their; prey, until ;they , have struck the
scent", which' they follow up until they
have fonnd the object of their search,

Hopkins "says "that he 'has upon several
occasions killed wild hogs in the thickets,
and after dressing them and taking what
moat, he .".wished would.. seef wen ty or
more buzzards coming down with the
wind. " On one occasion they had discov

Tue Old and New Way of Scouring Wool.
Our ancestors scoured their wool in
tubs, much as , onr wives and daughters
scour our clothes today. t In the-hand
washing 1 of wool, a tub. was filled with
the suds, m which one or two men with
long! poles stirred the wool until clean,
when . they lifted it upon a traveling
apron,' which -carried it between a pair '
of rollers which squeezed out the water.
The same principle is applied in the au- j
tomatic scouring now in vogue ' j
Great forks or rakes seize -the wool as
it is carried by rollers from a feeding 1
apron into, the iron tanks, and by alter
nating motions of their teeth give it u
thorough scouring. Thus cleansed, the
wool, isUdeUvered by rollers to jthedry-
mg macmnes, wuere not air and great
fans are now utilized to extract all tuu
moisture without tearing the fiber. S.

r
The air possesses elements of buoy
ancy -which have not, been recognized
hitherto. There is no truth in the popu-
lar conception that a body heavier than
the atmosphere cannot be suspended in
that mlinm without motion. ,'A kit 1
of sticks and paper is much heavier than i
the fluid which it displaces, but it is sua- !

that a telescope may be trained on it.

This is;poMible because! the suspended 1
fowl has an instinctive knowledge of the
way iii which to utilize the air currents
for its support."'1' When man has learned
how this can be done he will be able to

- '. 1.ESSOXS FROM BIRDS.
There is a school of flying machine in
ventors who may be designated as the
"flappers." inasmuch as their idea is to
snstain-their 'contrivances by "theflap
ping of birdlike wings. But -they doubt
lews -forget ' that-the bestv flyers among
birds do not support themselves byflap
ping. On the contrary, they only resort
to that performance when it. is necessary
for .a. start.. . s i,.., & v.w
Tfaq.eagle, if launching himself, from
level grqund.uisobliged to take. quice a
ruh'first: then, flapping his wings with
a violent muscular effort which he couli
not. keepHup for longj he gains suffi
cient altitude to render it possible for
him ' to strike along the plane of an air
current which holds him op.: v; -'
f-Floating with librating pinions from
one air-current to another, he is lifted,
with an occasional broad sweep of bis
powerful wings, to the upper aerial re
gions, where he simply floats, opposing
to each movement of the suspended
ether the gentle force-necessary to main
tain him in his Stationary position.
These principles which .the eagle ap
plies for' purposes ;of flight are perfectly
understood in the theory of mechanics:
It is only uecessary
to adapt them with
suitable apparatus in order to give to
human beings, like powers. , True, the
bird ia lighter in proportion to its' size
than is man. its bones are hollow and
filled with warm air from the lungs.
But the - difference in this ' respect is
not very material, and it may easily -be
compensated for by bigger wings. Pow
er to dap them is ' not what iii required,
inasmuch as tbe start can be made from
a height; what is wanted is the knowl
edge which inherited experience "ih
stincf" has given the fowl as to how to
adapt the angles of the wings to the air
currents. ..' ' " ::..'- ,--' !
' A PRA CTlCAfiLB MACBLtNE. . '
This is precisely what Professor Lang-'
ley has been experimenting with. - What ,
he is attempting is to prodnce a machine
adapted to dotation upon the air cur- ;
rents like a kite. . Yon can find . a very
simple illustration of the principle he is 1
working on in the trick none with play
ing cards by the prestidigitator Herr
mann, who throws them from the stage
into the highest gallery ; of the ' biggest
theater in the United States, distributing
them one after another ' among the
"gods" of that select circle. . How does
he do it?
Simply by skillfully utilizing the air
currents. The scrap of pastboard is
heavier than the atmosphere, but, ju
diciously projected, ' it mounts to a
great height and distance with very lit
tle force. It would stay np, too, even if
thrown outdoors, supposing that it pos
sessed the intelligence necessary : to' ac
commodate its surface to the winds.
What can be done in this way may be
accomplished on a larger scale. Lest j
this proposition be disputed it will ' be
sufficient to refer to. a flying 'machine
patented 'in Australia. , It weighs alto
gether nineteen pounds, and its back
bone. is a long -copper cylinder two inches
in diameter, filled with compressed air
The cdm pressed air supplies power for a
small engine weighing ten pounds, 'at
the, rear, end' ' of the cylinder, which,
works a fan' propeller. ',' ' ,' .i :'
' , T,o the backbone ion either side' is at
tached a great wing of , light material,
so that tbe whole apparatus resembles a
big butterfly with' -two fans for a tail.,
This contrivance has-been, made to1, fly
horizontally 300 feet' Of "eouwe it 'ta
