" Dock Efts In an Albumen Factory. Near Chlngklang, China, Is a great albumen factory, for tbe utilization of the duck eggs which are produced in that region in enormons quantities, flocks of 4,000 and 6,000 ducks being by no means uncommon. The eggs are broken at tbe rate of from 40,000 to 00,000 per day by women, who separ ate the white from the yolk, the for mer being carefully cleaned and dried until they resemble fish glue, when they are packed In 400-pound cases lined with sine. The yolks are passed through sieves Into twenty-five gallon receptacles, mixed with a salt and bo rax solution, packed In 500-pound bnr rels, and used In Europe for preparing and dressing articles of superior quali ty. The albumen finds a ready market In England, France and Germany for dyes for the best cotton goods. Phila delphia Press. Liverpool and Slave Trade.

Liverpool ad venturers with a small capital were unable to equip vessels and purchase goods specially adapted to tiio Afri can market and of no use outside of that market, nor could they afford to await the uncertain results of round voyages, sometimes prolonged to more than a year and subject to terrible dan gers unknown to any other description of trading adventures; Early iu the (MKhtwnth century, however, a iuo csful rlvnlxhlp wItK Bristol in ex ijorM:iir provisions, course checks ond i- '""r. u...i,iv!il i;icjktriicis to the "West Indies and the continent of America eventually enabled the merchants of Liverpool to participate In the more lucrative slave traffic.,.'-' While Liverpool obtained from this competition a sudden accession to her commerce which filled her warehouses with sugar, rum and other West India produce, the trade of Bristol to the West Indies declined.

How many historical students have observed that Denr.iark's kings for years have all ben named Christian or Frederick? This is not the result of accident. It Is the law. The pres ent King Is Christian IX, He will be succeeded by Frederick VIII., who In turn will be succeeded by Christian X. It Is the law of Denmark that Chris tian must be succeeded, by Frederick and Frederick by Christian. To at tain this, and without the changing of names, in case of death or other rea son, every Danish Trlnce, no mattet what other names be may receive, al ways Includes Christian and Frederick.

From the beginning the Nile whs an exceptional river. Its sources were un known. There were those who thought that the Nile flowed down from heav en; that It welled up from streams that disappeared under the earth on an other continent, or, at the very toast, that Us springs were Inaccessible to man. There was no such mystery about the Euphrates. From the ' remotest times Its sources seem to luivo been known by hearsay, If not by observa tion, to the dwellers on the coast. Tbe Nile was beneficent even In lu floods.
