England wus once on the vergo of a bread famine. That wus in 1800. when the wars with France combined with a succession of bad harvests to plunge the country Into a state of general des­ titution. "A law was enacted.” writes Mr. F. W. Hnckwood, “prohibiting the sale of bread till It had lawn out of tho oven at least twenty four hours Food was so scarce and dear that a portion of tlrti population refused to starve In silence, and rioting broke out In ninny parts of England The nets against •forestalling and regrntlng*—that Is. an­ ticipating the markets so as to raise the price of foodstuffs—were rigorous­ ly enforced A royal grant of £500 was made to one Thomas Toint.

Tho rapid growth of tbe castor oil plant bas become proverbial. Some eoiumeutiitors bave declared that the plant known as Jonas' gourd was the castor oil plant. There are vast plains tn Bengal covered with the oil produc­ ing vegetable. Immediately after tbe monsoon, when tbe water has receded, the peasant rakes tbe mire and put» the oil plant seeda In the ground two by two. The plunts rapidly develop their great leaves and produce their fruit, which grows tn groups of cap­ sules. acquiring a coppery green color mottled with purple and rich carmine. When the hot sun bns dried the podg they burst The women and children watch tbe pods, and when tile flrst crack appears they are ready to catch the precious seeds within. When the seeds hnve dried a few days tbe na­ tives toast them, crtisb them In a mor­ tar and plunge them In boiling water, when tbe oil rises to tbe surface.—Ex­ change. Jade. Jade Is regarded by the Chinese as the most precious of precious stones. You can buy a small piece in white for £10, but a similar specimen in emer­ ald green would cost you from £35 to £50. The value of the stone depends on the coloring and especially on trans­ parency, luster and brilliance of tbe beautiful emerald green, usually dis­ tributed in splashes through the ma­ trix, which may be white or greenish, or even tinted with lavender. Rarely Indeed does It occur In sufficient quan­ tity to furnish a large example. Some­ times small pieces uro selected to be made into beads of the purest emerald tint, free from those flecks which de­ preciate their worth. In the sunlight if you examine such beads, you will find that they upproaeb the emerald In purity of tone.—J. F. Blacker tn Lon­ don Opinion. England’s First Coffee. Coffee, like tea, was from an early date welcomed as a rival to alcoholia liquors. Writing In 1650, shortly after Its introduction into England, Howell makes the comment “that this coffa drink hath caused a great sobriety nmongst all nations. Formerly clerk», apprentices, etc., used to take their morning drafts In ale. beer or wine, which often made them unfit for busi­ ness Now they play the good fellows In this wakeful and civil drink.
