LICORICE ROOT.
We Buy Half a Million Dollars Worth
a Year From Asia Minor.
Licorice root grows wild. in the fields
of Asia Minor, and few attempts have
been made thus far toward its cultiva-
tion.
Until fifty years ago it was practially
unused, says Fur News: The root grown
on the Meander plains is the best in the
world, being superior to that found in
Syria, Mesopotamia, Caucasia, Siberia or
China.
The exporters of the root lease licorice
bearing lands for a period of from three
to five years. Digging usually begins in
October, and is done by peasants, who at
the end of each day deliver the root to
the various depots and receive payment
according to the quantity they bring.
The root is piled up and exposed to
the air until about May and June. It
then weighs only half as much as orig-
inally, owing to the thorough drying
process to which it has been subjected.
The root is sorted to obtain the qualities
known as "debris" and "bagatelle," both
of which are highly valued.
Licorice root is shipped in bales weigh-
ing about 220 pounds each, pressed by
hydraulic machinery and strapped with
iron bands. The United States is the
principal consumer of this class of licor-
ice, which is shipped there in its natural
shape as raw material, being admitted
It is converted into licorice paste for
medicinal purposes, and is especially
used for flavoring plug tobacco. Licorice
root in its original state can also be
found in any drug store in America.
Annual exports to the United States
amount to about 14,210 tons, valued at
$550,000.

John Was Huffed.
n the olden time a woman in the
rth of Scotland went to visit her bus-
nd, who was condemned to be hanged
the following day. The doomed man
gan to give his last instructions to his
fe preparatory to bidding her fare -
1, when all at once she broke in upon
e conversation, and exclaimed: "By the
, John, whaur will I plant the tattier
is year?" The unfortunate man, as
ay be imagined, grew exceedingly in-
gnant at the indifference of his wife,
d exclaimed, angrily: "What need I
re whaur ye plant them? I'm no like -
to need ony o' them." "-Rech," replied
e woman, turning to the warder with
wag of the head, "oor John's huffed
ecause he's gaun to be hanged the
horn," and marched out of the cell.
The Adolescence of the Dollar.
The dollar took some rounding.
Nor did it formerly ring true, but,
much alive, simply gave' a bleat or
bellow. Cattle, among country folk,
at one time constituted the dollar,
while primitive, man generally made
use of any article sufficiently abun-
dant for the standard payment of
all merchandise.
Thus, in ancient Greece, says Har -
per's Weekly, a large bronze tripod
had the value of a dozen oxen. A
good hard-working woman, on the
other hand, was given in exchange
for only four such beasts.
When metal took the place of
money, the dollar clung to its tra-
ditions, and coins were still called
after live stock. Thus, "petunia,"
applied to metal money, derived its
origin from "pecus" (cattle.) From
the custom of counting heads of cat-
tle came the present designation of
a sum in cash—capital, or 'capita"
(heads). In Sanscrit, roupa (herd,
flock) made roupya, or the Indian
roupee. While ingots of electrum, or
admixture of gold and silver, when
first in use as money, bore the im-
press of an ox or cow.
Not clumsy, bit too fragile, were
the shells in use as money by the
negroes of Africa, and throughout
ancient Asia, where the natives; tak-
en by its beauty, gave the shell a
money value.

Underground Moving PIatforms.
A novel proposition is occupying the
attention of a special committee of the
Paris Municipal Council, ill the form
of a seheme to construct a series of
moving platforms which are to form a
circle in the centre of Paris underneath
the grand boulevards and the Boulevard
St. Germain. It is proposed to have
three running roadways moving at dif-
ferent speeds. Passengers would step
of the fixed platform to the slow -
rolling platform, and from that to the
faster ones in turn. A trial has proved
that getting on and off the platforms
is as easy as boarding a.n omnibus.
