The steadily Increasing demtunl for
India rubber, the grout variety of its
lists ami the failure of at tempts to de
vise any .satisfactory substitute for it
were facts suggested by a conversa
tion with mem tiers of the stall' of the
New York botanical garden incidental
to an inspection of the India rubber
economic collection in the garden's
museum.
This collection is an exceptionally
good one. comprising herbarium speci
mens of the halves, seeds and fruit of
• rubber plants and tree.-., a specimen
of the milk or rap which is the basis
of India rubber and samples of the
commercial product in its various
stages up to and including vulcaniza
tion. All the principal varieties of rub
ber are represented, and in the gar
den's greenhouses are living speci
mens of tile plants producing them.
most notable exhibit in the eco
nomic collection is a Iwtilc of tin* milk
from a Para rubber tree, pure white
and looking like cow's milk, very re
cently prese nted to the garden by .lohn
lame Keck, who brought it front Peru.
Such a specimen is said to ho extreme
ly rare in the temperate zone. Then
there are samples of India rubber in
the various processes of the mainline-
ture and a few specimens of fttily com
pleted products. The most curious of
the latter Is a pair of . hoes made by
South American natives in the rude
mold of a fool shaped hole In the
ground, into which the rubber was
poured in a scnilllqttid condition and
fashioned in the desired form while
plastic, in addition, there is a collec
tion of tools used in gathering the sap
from the India rubber trees, such as
the pick or hatchet for wounding the
bark, the (in cup in which the sap is
received as It exudes, etc.
As Is generally known, Ihe remark
able commercial product called India
rubber, or caoutchouc, Is formed from
the milky Juice of various trees and
shrubs, which Is dried anil coagulated.
The lirsl European knowledge of It
was derived through the second voyage
of Columbus, when It was noted that
rubber balls, said to be made ‘‘of tin*
gum of a tree," were used In a game
played by the natives of Haiti. One of
the trees yielding the Juice was gen-

In 17.’i5 was sent by the French govern
ment to measure nil arc of the tnerldlnn
near Quito, in Ecuador. By the natives
of South America the crude India rub
ber was employed for balls used In
games, for waterproofing garments and
for the material of shoos. A great ob
stacle to any general use of such rub
ber for a long period after It became
known to Europeans was the fact that
while It is dry and leatberllko at a low
temperature It becomes sticky and very
soft when exposed to u high one. In
the latter part of the eighteenth cen
tury tlie celebruteil English scientist,
Dr. Priestley, who passed bis later
years in Mils country, directed public
attention to India rubber as a novelty
for erasing pencil marks, stating that
it was then sold in England In cubical
pieces of half an inch for 3 shillings
u piece. ,
Although India rubber was utilized
In the first half of the nineteenth cen
tury for the manufacture of very crude
and clumsy overshoes, which became
soft In warm weather, and for some
other purposes, its industrial use did
not become general until the American

peated trials and failures, succeeded in

orul, bowovoi', tlio oultlvatIon of rubber
oil plantations has not been very suc
cessful, though it lias been carried on
to a considerable extent In Ceylon and
tlie Dutch East Indies. It Is said that
all tlie Month American companies or
ganized to operate such' plantations
have hitherto failed to produce much
rubber. In explanation it is pointed
out that from sixteen to twenty years
uro required for a i’ara rubber tree to
become productive, from the time Its
seed Is planted, and even then Its yield
of milk Is scanty. Moreover, the vigor
of a tree, especially a young one, Is

To Increase tlie supply rubbers have
been largely adulterated, a great vari
ety of resins being used, giving the ma
terial more body, but Impairing its
strength und limiting it brittle. Many
attempts have been made io manufac
ture substitutes for rubber, commonly
with oxidized linseed or corn oil as a
basis, but nil such efforts are averred
to have been failures. Ah one of tlio
experts at tlie botanical garden said,
"Tlio alleged substitutes for rubber are
not rubber, and science lias not yet
succeeded in producing anything wliieli
can lie culled caoutchouc.” A story
has been told that un English chemist
some years ago achieved the produc
tion of a compound, with turpentine as
a basis, which comprised all the prop
erties of genuine indiu rubber, hut was
unable for some unexplained reason to
duplicate the experiment. This tale Is
discredited by botanists at the garden.

The
Importance of
Insurance.
Life
HY REV. It. K. it VAN.
I am no insurance agent; hut I do
not hesitate to say that modern in-
suranoe comes nearer to giving some
thing for nothing, and making tliut
something sure and certain than any
other known institution of our times.
Indeed, so sure, cheap und certain
lias it become that no man, however
poor, is without excuse who does not
hike advantage of the inducements
offered him to lay up a little money
to bury him when dead and proviilo
support for liis afflicted and stricken
loved ones when he iH called away.
It is short of unpardonable crirno
when a father anil husband, witli a
wife and children depending upon
him foi supjiort, neglects this snored
obligation; uses up each week his
wages, and in a movement of time is
stricken by death; compels his
friends to (jury him; leaves Ids fam
ily destitute and objects of pity and
charity.
Though I should live a thousand
years I never could forget the picture
of just such a scene os tins I saw in
Mt. Hope cemetery a few days ago—
tlie one that inspired tlie sermon. I
whs called upon to preach tlie fune
ral sermon of a man wiio was a clerk
in oiio of the great railroad offices.
He hud u beautiful little home, a
lovely wife ami child. He lived a
life of simple, happy ease. In vain
did insurance agents importune him
to oarry just a little insurance. He
lived each week to tlie limit of his
small salary, Having nothing. Ho
refused to take insurance on uccount
of the expense.
One day lie was sitting at his desk
writing and whistling when sudden
ly Ii in whistling ceased, liis writing
stopped, liis head dropped forward
on liis hook, and liis heart, ever light
and gay, caused to tliroh.
When Ids accounts were footed up
he hud nothing. The hoys in tlio of
fice had to huy his coffin and defray
all funeral expenses, and they were
just as poor as lie. One ilollur a
week invested in life insurance
would have avoided all tiiis.
The saddest sight I think I ever
witnessed in my life was liis frail,
delicate little wife, standing beside
that open grave with tlie cold winds
whistling through the barren trees,
sobbing as if tier poor heart would
break, with not enough money in
her pocketbook to buy her a lunch
and puy her way hack to her cheer
less home.
After she returned to her home,
wliat then? No bread in the pantry,
no money in tlie purse, no coal in tlio
hunker, and tlie next mouth’s relit
dne.
I have no sorrow for that dead hus
band. My sympathy is all for tlio
poor, destitute and unfortunate wife.
It is a pity that suoh men cunuot suf
fer the ])6i.alty of their own folly;
but, unfortunately, tlie suffering is \
endured by their luckless wives and
innocent children.
