Up with the Tlmea.
- in an East Ninety-first street fiat them
lives a Weet street business man and his
family.' -
.'"It is a . queer fancy," he. remarked;
"it's a funny superstition, but we've all
got it; every member of my family feels
the same aVtont it. ' " . - .
"It was this way. . In the year 1871 we
moved to New York. . . We lived in Seventy-first
street.' Next year we moved
up to Seventy-second street, and in an
other year we -moved still one more
street up town. :
"This we continued to do for several
years. During the time I was prosper
ing wonderfully in ..my business. . Our
children were bright and healthy. We
got to thinking about onr even fortunes
one night at Christmas time, and it sud
denly occurred to my wife that we were
literally keeping pace with the time
thai we had lived, since first coming to
the city, in the street which correspond
ed to the year of the century. Well, we
come to grow superstitious about it, and
kept on moving np one street each year.
We-are nearly ready - now to move to
Ninety -second street. If anything should
delay us we would not be able to sleep
until we had caught np with onr cen
tury." New York World. -
. The GutU Perch Tree. .
"The steamer Cachar, which recently
arrived from Tonqnin at Marseilles,
brought back AL Serullaz, who went
out two years ago on a mission from
the French minister, of posts and tel
egraphs in search . of the Isonandra
gutta percha tree in Malaysia. The
disappearance of this tvee threatened
with great embarrassment, . if not ex
tinction, the submarine cable manufac
ture. But . M. Serullaz has discovered
large forests of these trees, and has hit
upon practical ways of collecting the
gum without destroying the trees, as
the natives inevitably do. AL- Serullaz
has been allowed to transport several
hundreds of the trees from ten to fifteen
years old to Algiers, and their cultiva
tion will be 'attempted also, in Guiana.
M. Serullaz has left for Algiers with his
cargo, which is artificially warmed on
board the Cachar. Philadelphia Led

How Thread ta Made.
To make a spool of thread the very
beet Sea island cotton is used. This id
taken in the raw state and torn to pieces
by a machine called a breaker. It is
then freed from its impurities by several
other machines, af ter which it is taken
up by a '"slipper" and twisted into soft
yarn."" Several strands of this are twist
ed into ,one fine thread; three of these
are then twisted sogether, making the
six-cord thread, which, after being
bleached, is ready to sell. Philadelphia

A Severe Law.
The English peo
ple look more closely
to the genuineness
of these staples than
we do. In fact, they
have a law under
which they make
selzHrei and de'
stroy adulterated
r products that are
not what they are represented to be. - JJnder
, this statute thousands of pounds of tea have
been burned because of their wholesale adul
teration. ... . ..
Tea, by the way, is one of the most notori
- onsly adulterated articles of commerce. Not
..alone are the bright, shiny green teas artlfl
. cially colored, but thousands of pounds of
. substitute for tea leaves are used to swell
,tbe bulk of cheap teas; ash, sloe, and willow
. leaves being those most commonly used.
Again, sweepings frc.m tea warehouses are
colored and sold as tea. Even exhausted tea
. leaves gathered from the tea-honses are kept,
dried, and madeorerand find their way into
the cheap teas. .- ' .- .- .
The English government attempts to stamp
. (his out by confiscation;, but no tea is too
poor for u, and the result is, that probably "
the poorest teas used by any uation are those
oonsamed iii America. - - r .
. Beech's- .Bea is presented with the guar

in fact, the sun-curea $ea leaf pure and sim- --pie.
Its purity" Insures . superior strength,
about one third less of it being required for
an luiuaion than of the artificial teas, and its
jrmgrance ana exquisite flavor Is at once ap
