PASSING OF NATURAL ICE. IFOIJ1J
WHA,1. HE
To Manufacture the ArticleCheaper
Than to Cut and Transport It.
For several years past the business of
the icemen of former days has been de-
ereasing steadily, and at the present
rate ere long he will find his occupation
gone. It is no longer necessary to wait
for cold weather toecure a supply of
the refrigerating product; it can be pro-
duced easily and cheaply in the warmest
weather by chemical processes. In the
State of Maine, where in former years
the harvesting of ice for market in more
southern latitudes was carried to enor-
mous proportions, the total quantity
cut during last winter, which embraced
perfect conditions for 'the securing of
a large crop, was but 455in the
,0 Ot
against 700,000 tons
winter of 1902-03.
The advantages offered by chemistry
and modern machinery for the produc-
tion of ice and the perfect control of
temperature at whatever degree desired,
when and wherever needed, irrespective
of climatic conditions, render their me-
chanical acquirements cheaper than can
be obtained from natural ice when trans-
portation from remote districts, cost of
storing and the great wastage of orig-
inal bulk through melting are taken into
consideration. In all manufacturing ne-
eessity for cooling and for maintaining
uniform degrees of temperature, as well
a certainty of control of such condi-
tions, together with their greater econ-
omy, present systems of artificial re-
frigeration are crowding nature out of
the field of competition and reducing the
]atter to chiefly local value.—Chicago
Chronicle.

MORPHINE AND OPIUM FIENDS.
Officials of the public hospitals in New
York say that the drug habit is increas-
ing at an alarming rate there. The use.
of morphine particularly is growing out
of hounds. Morphine, the physicians
say, is destructive to the morals as
well as the physical health. When a
patient admits the constant use of the
drug he puts a badge "liar" on his
breast. The doctor familiar with the
vagaries of users of this drug will never
take a statement from one of them at
par. One of the favorite hallucinations
es that relatives are striving to swindle
them out of an imaginary estate, usu-
ally running up in the millions. Opium
users are given to this peculiar form of
mania also. It is from professional ob-
servations that the phrase `What have
you been smoking?" originated.—Pitts-
burg Despatch.

To Remember.
Steep rine hours.
Best after luncheon.
If thin, massage the face gently.
If too plump, a firm pressure is better.
Use some good cold cream with the
)massage.
A thorough cleansing should precede
massage.
Gentle, thorough hair -brushing should
he indulged in twice a clay.
If hair brushes be Cleaned daily and
the scalp massaged the hair and head
will keep clean much Ionger.
If in addition to scalp massage we give
our hair a soft rubbing with the palms
of our hands it will be much more silky.
The eating of fruit which is neither
green nor over -ripe, combined with the
drinking of plenty of pure water, is a
great thing for anybody.
After disagreeable tasks the hands
will not suffer if thoroughly cleansed
(with acids, if necessary), and then
treated to cold cream and soft gloves.
Regularity in the taking of wholesome
meals would do much toward beautify -
lug some persons who never have time
ito conduct their affairs methodically.

THE CRADLE OF THE RACE. '
It is noteworthy that out of Asia
came our alphabet and our Arabic numer-
als, says the Portland Oregonian. The
compass we owe to the Chinese, who
knew the magnetic needle as early as
the second century A. D. Gunpowder
originally came out of Asia, and so did
the art of printing and the manufacture
of paper. The Chinese invented mov-
able types in the middle of the eleventh
century, 350 years before Gutenberg.
They also made silks long before Eu-
rope, and porcelain that has never been
equalled by Europe. Truly, Asia is the
cradle of the race. On the original ideas
of the Persians, the Arabians, the Hin-
doos and the Chinese our modern society
has been built.

ONLY NEGROES THERE,
Goldsboro, 1'la.,as o Other Nation•
A unique tospnR1 in Florida is Golds
boro, a lace peopled entirely by ne-
ggrroes. Goldsboro is 127 miles from
J'aeksonville, on the Atlantic Coast Line
railway,between the Florida metropolis
and Tampa. Within its precincts no
white person nor member of any other
nationality is found and a negro mayor
and negro council dictate the destinies
of the community. A negro postmaster
appointed under a Democratic adminis-
tration has charge of the mail service,.
and dark -shinned night watchmen look
after the stores and shops between sun
and sun.
The school system is, of course, op-
erated under the regular guidance of
the publie school laws of the state and
applicants for positions as pedagogues
are examined by the Orange county
school board.
Withal Goldsboro, which has 300 of a
population, is well governed. There are
few radical discords. The town jail is
in great disrepute, and the population
pays its taxes about on an average with
the ratio of whites in other Florida com-
munities. With but few exceptions ne-
groes own every foot of land. in Golds-
boro, and that which they do not own
they are purchasing on the instalment
plan from white people who hold deeds
for the properties.
The town is 10 years old from the
point of incorporation and there have
never been any riots or unusual dis-
orders to mar its record.
The community is very religious and
has three churches with rapidly grow-
ing membership rolls. A unique spec-
tacle on Sundays during the spring and
summer of each year is to see the de-
votional exercises attendant upon ' the
administration of the rites of baptism.
which is not conducted without loud and
fervent crescendos of thankfulness.
Goldsboro, however, has its sinners. It
has one chronic sinner who belongs to
no church in particular and it is report-
ed among his own people that Uncle
Abe professed religion 21 different times
in one spring and suinmer—and was bap-
tized that number of times, or seven
times by each church in the settlement—
each time falling back in the mire of the
wicked.
The negro municipality is the home
of the independent voter. Each indi-
vidual votes as his conscience dictates.
The absence of white citizens has re-
moved the source, that frequently con-
taminates the negro voter, although it
is told that upon one ocasion an alder -
manic election was bought through the
influence of a barrel of whiskey.
The relations between the town of
Goldsboro and the neighboring town of
Sanford, two miles distant, peopled main-
ly by whites, are friendly and there is an
interchange of business between the two
municipalities. The !Mayor of Golds-
boro is a frequent visitor in Sanford, at -
though it has not been recorded that the
latter town has entertained the execu-
tive from Goldsboro at any state or pri-
vate dinner parties.—Minneapolis Trib-
une.

against dancing, card -playing and thea-

visory restrictions. This is due partly
to a more liberal spirit in the church,
and also to the fact that the young peo-
ple are going to do these things any-
how.

Pawtucket has four undertaking estab-

is conducted by a man named Berry,
which, if riot spelled the same way,
sounds exactly like "bury." Inr one of
these establishments a young man by
the name of Collin secured a position
some years ago. His first work was in
connection with thirteen victims of a
sleighing party, run into by a train while
crossing the railway track near the city.

AT A "FASHIONABLE" MARRIAGE.
Now that "fashionable marriages"
are engaging atte1ation these merry
spring days, a glance at a marriage en-
tertainment of the eldest daughter of
a Knight of King Henry VIII's. time is
not without interest. Seven days of
feasting and revelry were indulged in,
the following being among some of the
numerous items provided: Beer and ale,
£G, 1Gs, 8d; two hogsheads of wine,
£4; one ditto, red wine, £2; nine
cranes, twelve peacocks, three red deer,
twelve fallow deer, seventy-two fat ca-
pons, thirty dozen of mallards, and teal,
two dozen of herons, two oxen, and
among the fish turbot, pike, sturgeons,
ling, salt and fresh salmon, eels, lam-
preys, oysters and porpoises figured. A
truly remarkable medley! For the
amusement of the guests, there was
"first a play, and straight after the play
a mask, and when the mask was done,
then the banquet, which was 110 dishes,
and all of meat, and then all the gen-
tlemen and ladies did dance, and this
continued from the Sunday to the Sat-
urday afternoon." It is interesting also
to note that the wedding outfit, included
in which was apparel for the bride-
groom, cost £27 Ss.

WILD ANIMALS AT SEA.
Polar Bear the Only One Which is a
Good Sailor.
'A French scientist has made some in-
teresting observations as to the behavior
of different wild animals at sea, says
the Westminster Gazette. The Polar
bear, he says, is the only one that takes
to the sea, and is quite jolly when
aboard ship. All others violently resent
a trip on water and vociferously give
vent to their feelings until sea -sickness
brings silence. The tiger suffers most
of all. He whines pitifully, his eyes
water continually and he rubs his stom-
ach with his terrible paws. Horses are
very bad sailors, and often perish on
a sea voyage. Oxen are heroic in their
attempts not to give way to sickness.
Elephants do not like the sea, but they
are amenable to medical treatment. A
good remedy is a bucketful of hot water
containing three and a half pints of
whiskey and seven 'ounces of quininet.

And yet I doubt
If 'twere discreet just now to dare
To trot it out.

Is simply that
I know some chump would recognize

What a Blush Really Is.
(Southern Medicine.)
A blush is a temporary erythema and
calprific effulgence of the physiognomy,
actiologized by one perceptiveness of tha
sensorium when in a predicament of un-
'equilibrity from a sense of shame, anger
or other cause, eventuating in a paresis
of the vasomotor filaments of the fao-
iary capillaries, whereby, being divested
of their elasticity, they are suffused
with a radiance effemanating from ate
intimidated ,raecordia.
