____ J. N. Harris A Rob. per by
Corea, Hkefiw world of the ancient,
m its “seven wonders.” Briefly Abated
they are m follows;
hot mineral spring near Kin-
Sh&ntao, the healing properties, of which
are believed to be miraculous. So mat¬
ter What diseaso may afflict the' patient
a dip in the water proves efficacious.
Second—Two zprings situated at a
considerable distance from each other;
in fact, they have the breadth of the en¬
tire peninsula between them. They
have two peculiarities. When one ia
full the other is always empty; and not¬
withstanding the obvious fact that they
are connected by a subterranean passage
one is of the bitterest bitter, and the
other pure and sweet.
Tlflrd—The third wonder in Cold Wind
care, a cavern from which a wintry
wind perpetually blows. The force of
the wind from the cave is each that a
strong man cannot stand before it.
Fonrth—A forestthatcannot be eradi¬
cated. No matter what injury is done
the roots of the trees, which are large
pines, they will sprout up again directly
—like the phenix from her ashes.
Fifth—The fifth is the^nost wonderful
of the seven natural curiosities of the
peninsula. It is the famous “floating
stone.” It stands, or seems to stand, in
front of the palace erected in its honor.
It is an irrogular cube of great bulk. It
appears to be resting on the ground, free
from supports on all sides, but, strange
to say, two men at opposite ends of a
rope may pass it under the stone without
encountering any obstacle whatever I
The sixth wonder is the “hot stone,"
which from remote ages has laid glow¬
ing with heat on top of a high bill.
The seventh and last Cftrean wonder is
a drop of the sweat of Buffdha. For
thirty paces around the large temple in
which it is enshrined not a Wade of grass
will grow. There are no trees or flowers
inside the sacred square. Even the ani¬
mals decline to profano a spot so holy.—

lie Wa, a Father Himself.
He was an old man, bent and gray.
In spite of bis unkempt appearance and ■
his poor faded clothes there was a cer¬
tain nobility in his face that could not
but attract the casual observer. He sat
in the anteroom of the police court, to¬
gether with a score of other prisoners.
Upon his knees he held a little girl
whose uncared for appearance could not
hide her childish prettiness. Sh# leaned
against his breast, und on her head there
fell now ond then u great tear.
“What 00 cryin’ for, popper?” the lit¬
tle girl would say when some of these
tears crept beyond her tumbled curls
and down her forehead. Even the sot¬
tish crowd about them grew respectful.
The two were so pathetic.
Finally the man’s name was called and
he appeared before the judge. He stated
his case. The ohargowas some minor
offense. Just then the little girl, who
had begun to realize that her father was
in some danger, crept near. The judge
caught sight of her. The child crept up,
in spite of the gaze fixed on her from the
bench, and clung to her father’s hand.
“Is that your child?” asked the judge.
“It is, your honor; my motherless
child."
The sternness died out of the eyes of
the judge and a moist tenderness took
its place. He was a father himself. He
raised his handkerchief without shame
to wipe away the gathering dimness.
“I cannot do it,” he said within him¬
self. Then, looking at the prisoner be¬
fore him, he said, in a voice choked with
feeling;

Theatrical Bivalry.
There was a hearty rivalry between
the Old and New Bowery theatres -up to
thq time of the burning of the latter
house. Each had its patrons, and they
were uncompromising supporters of their
favorite place Of entertainment. The
little story of the two boys who met on
a comer of Canal street will illustrate
the feeling tn that part of the city when
the rivalry was at its height.
“Hello, cull!” said one mite, coming
up to the other. "Wlmr ye goin’?”
“To de teaytre.”
“Wat teaytre?"
“New Bowery teaytre.”
“Oh, das no good.”
“Yes, it is fine.”
“Wat deygotmpdere?”___
“ ‘Catarac’ 0’ deQangees’—real water!

—“Naw, I’m goin’ to de Ole Bowery.”
“Oh, dasno good.”--—

The Ten riant.
The tea plant is like the c
in one respect, for the seeds, the hlos-
soma aj>d the leaves all appear at the
one time. It takes a year 1 to mature the
seeds. One peculiarity of the tea plant
is that the veins are started from the
midrid, all turning backward, fornting
*~*ort of loop. V<ery few planta in the
world exhibit the same peculiarity.
The seed pod is generally three cor-
uered or irregular, aud contains a Philip¬
pine of seeds very bitter to the taste.
The blossom of the tea plant is a dream
of delight. It is a delicate white, with
a centre of very many stamens of yellow,
with a perfume when it is fresh that it
is impossible to describe. — Pittsburg
Dispatch.
Tracing Paper.
The following method for marking
paper transparent for copying drawings
is adopted by tho Austrian hydrographic
bureau: The sheet of paper being placed
over the drawing to be copied, it is light¬
ly rubbed with s ball of cotton saturated
with pure benzine. The tracing can then
be readily made, owing to the transpar¬
ency produced, and the benzine on evap¬
orating leaves,the paper opaque as be¬
fore, and perfectly odorless. To secure
satisfactory results, however, absolutely
pure benzine must be nsed.

Advertising.
A bright and successful business
roan bus this to say about adver¬
tising; “Nothing is high that pro
duces a profit. If spending flOO a
year in advertising will cause an in¬
crease net profit ol $200, it is a mag¬
nificent return. My experience is that
the ratio is much larger. I have
tested the matter in every way. I
began not advertising at (all. Then
I tried sign boards on the country
roads. They brought in some coun¬
try folks who did not know me be¬
fore, but did not influence the town
people. I tried band bills, but the
distribution was not good unless I
sent my own clerk out with them,
and that was expensive. I found
that though the hand bills were
cheap enough, the cost of the boy’s
time and the bills together exceeded
that of an equal space and
ution by the newspaper.”
