TJie 1*111*11 '5» tl»«*il of Smoking tlu* Sup to Proiiuoo Coagulation—One of \«- turo'n liiits For Which .Man Cun De vi no INo Nu but Unto. 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- Torqtiemiulit In accurate Information aoutebouc trees was supplied by I.a Condamlne, who 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 Inventor, Charles Goodyear, after re peated trials and failures, succeeded in 1844 in introducing the process of vul canizing.

In gon- 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 Injured l>y much lapping. Full matu rity, It is believed, Is not attained by a I’ara tree in less than fifty yours. 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. Any one wtio could produce artificially the equivalent of real inilia rubber at a reasonable cost would secure I*r. Johnson's “potentiality of growing rich beyond the dreams of avarice." The ordinary vulcanized material contains only from one-half to 1 per cent of sulphur, but. if enough more Is added it produces the hornlike sub stance called lmnl rubber, used for combs, penholders, knife handles, eye glass rims, watch chains and many oth er articles. Tills hard rubber, which takes a line polish, is valuable to tlie electrician for its insulating properties and to the chemist and photographer because vessels made of It are unaffect ed by most chemical reagent*.-—New York Dost.

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.
