No Danger of Short Supply—A itelee view of the Sources of the Light -Giv- ing Product, Showing That Other Con- tinents Are Also Well ,Supplied. The United States has so long been the chief source of supply of petroleum, and its products are retailed at so low a price, that few users of the oil in this country take the trouble to consider the extent or development of petroleum beds in other parts of the world. Yet in re- cent year this oil industry has beconie a more or less important one in Russia, Canada, the Dutch East Indies, Austria, Roumania, Peru, Argentine Republic, Ecuador, France and Italy. In the last two countries the oil is produced by the distillation of bituminous schist ; in all the other regions it is obtained from nat- ural sources within their borders. THE RI:161;4N SUPPLY. The Russian oil W41s are next in im- portance to *lose of Pennsylvania and Ohio. • These wells are,eituated on the western side of the . Caspian Sea, in the Aspheron peninsula, in the neighborhood of the city of Behr: The production of raw petroleum in this district in the first nine months of I 1892, according to statis- ticapublished -by the "Moniteur des In- terets Materiels,' was 3,08,320 tons, as compared with 3,430,202 tons in the cor- responding period of 1891. The British Consul at Batoum states that very recently a tremendous gusher bas been tapped near Baku, whose pro- duction exceeds that of all the other wells which have been bored there. This well is estimated to be delivering 17,742 tons of crude oil a day, but owing to the almost insurmountable difficulties experienced in getting a fiow of this magnitude under control, most of the oil is running to waste. The wells of this region are now controlled by a eyndicate of the producers. FOR SALE.—A nice hone and lot in Harpurhey. The lot contains more than a quarter of an acre, has a nice stable, a well of good water, is well fenced, and has plenty of fruit trees and bushes on it. It is situated nearly opposite Lawyer Heinle- sted's residence, to the south. The whole will be sold for $200, about half what it is worth.

There are in all about 20 statensens, For the gelleral accommodation th-re is a magnificent salcon and a library, but having been fitted up by Messrs. Cum.', of Paris, who have had carte blanche in carrying out the work. The saloon is 18 feet in length and 34 in width, tho anana breadth of the ship. The general design of the saloon is Loriis Qiur( rze, but, this is not too lavishly adhered to. The wood is fine-grained French pint., re, CH 111)11 ug English poplarabut, of courser the original grain and color of the wood is hidden beneath the fine white enamel with its golden embellishments. The carving, which is out of the solid wood, is something to be wondered at. It is simyly exquisite, every foot of the wall paneling beieg rich in high relief carv- ing, beautifully done, and shining out in its added layer of enamel. A SUPERB LIBRARY. Leaving the saloon, a 100 foot passage, arched and beautifully decorated, and carpeted with a texture costing $15 a yard—as are both the saloon and the library—leads to this latter apartment, where again the hand of the carver has had free play. This apartment is of rich dark walnut, unpolished; the panels and pilasters rich with the Most beautiful carving, Which, indeed, embellishes the whole apartment. The settees, side- board, and general fittings are all of dark walnut, and overhead beautiful panels of the same wood; chastened with soft -tinted paintings, look down on the room. The fireplace and mantelpiece are one of the finest bits of work in the ship,being massive and exquisitely carved, The fireplace isof glazed brick, and in the grate is aet a black iron cal- dron to receive the fire. , CANADA THIRD IN RANK. Next to the United States and Russia come the Canadian wells in quantity of oil produced. Much of it is exported. At present the county of Lambton, -Ont., is the chief source of supply; Petroleum, however, !sae been found in Quebec, Nova Scotia, New I3runswick and•in the northwest territorie&,In the latter there are said to be iinmense oil - bear ing tracts, but little investigated. PLENTIFUL IN SOUTH AMERICA. In Peru the petroleum beds are of vast extent and are beginning to attain con- siderable importance. The London and Pacific Petroleum Company have works extending over a distance of two miles along the Coast, and owns 26 "pits," which are being worked, producing 900 barrels a day. The New York Engineering and Min- ing Journal states that since April 1890, when the first boring was made, a oon- siderable petroleum industry has sprung up at Cachenta, in the province of Men- doza, in the Argentine. The oil is conducted through pipes to storage tanks at San Vincente. It is consumed at the gasworks and on the railroad for loco- motive fuel. Numerous petroleum beds exist in Ecuador, whose produce is said to be of good quality. A syndicate has recently been formed to obtain, a concession of the beds. THE EAST INDIAN SOURCES. In British Burmah petroleum has been obtained for generations. According to a report in the Geological Survey of India, there are 602 wells in Burmah, an increase of 92 since 1888, but there are distant signs of exhaustion. In 1890 the output was about 5500 tons, but in the last two years it has been considerably smaller. The petroleum supplies of the Island of Sumatra have only recently been ex- ploited. The oil is said to be of excellent quality, and is "derived from lands, the extent -of which is 40 times greater than those in Russia." A Pennsylvania man Is doing the drilling on the island for the Royal Dutch Oil Company. The Italian Engineer reports that c,on- siderable success has been met with in the borings for oil in Assam, One real— spouting well has been taiiplede: The other wells have made good yied oil is said to be of excellent quality when refin ed. , - EUROPE'S PRODUCrION SMALL. $ 300 Private funds to loan at lowest $ 500 rates of interest at sums to suit $ 700 borrowers.

An Austrian official report showed that in 1891 there were 199 establish- ments in Galicia engaged in the produC- tion of petroleum, and that there were also 79 ozokerito mines worked, the ag- gregate product being valued at $2,400,- 000. Roumania is credited with vast num- ber of beds from which good oil can be . obtained, but the quantity produced is unimportant. The reason is given that the government, in the case of crown lands, requires the payrnent of royalty on signing of the contract, and before any petroleum is foiled. Italy obtained 1155 tons of petroleum by the distillation of bituminous schist, in 1891, • and France, in 1889. obtained 194,000 tons in the same manner.

MRS. VANDERBILT'S APARTMENTS. Mrs. Vanderbilt's stateroom is rich, but chaste in style, which is Sheraton, enameled white and picked out with gold, the ceiling being of rich -fibrous plaster, also enameled ivory white. Al) the furniture and equipments are thus tinted, and as the wall paneling and draperies are of an old rose color, rich flowered silk, the effect is warm and sootliing to a degree. A fine wooden bedstead is similarly enameled and draped, and the carpet is a beautiful gray Saxony. as aro all the after cabins and passages. Out of the bedroom is a neat bathroom, but with several wooden panels in place of draperies. The bath fittings are of the silver white metal, and the bath itself enameled copper. Going up from the main to the upper deck, one finds Mrs. Vanderbilt's sitting room, a beautiful apartment in the old Adams' style, the furniture, framkgs and casings being of dark mahogany, and the upholsterings and hangings of a peculiar, green—flowered silk, between apple and gage green in tint. • MR. VANDERBILT'S STATEROOM. Mr. Vanderbilt's Stateroom is fitted Up in a particularly luxurious style, the 'furniture being of richly figured Pollard oak, and consists of a spacious wardrobe fitted up with every conceivable aCcom- modation. In one corm)! the seats are upholstered in rich cream ground: and floral design French Silk, and above hav- ing cupboard and bookeases inclosed by doors paneled and fitted with beveled glass. Under and between the ports are seen a specially designed, very effec- tive Po11ard oak cabinet or .sideboard, The bestead is an important feature here, made of Pollard oak with conveni- ent cupboards below, the footboard pan- eled and carved and having a canouy headboard, presenting the acme of ele- gance and coinfort. The wall spaces, which are very limited owing to the fitments covering almost all, are panel- ed with the same silk as is used in the upholstery, and the ceiling frieze and beams are covered with Tynecastle tapestry decorated in tone of ivory wnite. Adjoining this room and ap- proached through a pair of handsomely paneled and carved doors is the bath- room and lavatory, fitted up and decor- ated in the most approved an elegant manner. He Lives on Sixoence a Day. The advice to "live on sixpence a day earn it" has been taken by a gentle- -i, who contributes an amount of his T•ience to Cassell's Saturday Journal. .esult was so encouraging that had , • declares, only himself to censider, •Ild live on sixpence a day regular. `ith such a mode of. life, it ems not experience ..that "dr4way in the afternoiin that is the • .,ult of too much food and too • eise, and one escapes many and other petty ailments. A entary occupation, moreover, ired, would sae much time li,g on. sixpence a _day, inas- much as he would not have to walk long distances for the sole pur- pose Of exercise. It is rather discourag- ing, however, to be told that, if woo obtain immunity from drowsiness in the afternoon, it is purchased by an attack of nerve disease, for the writer admits that his nerves were out of order during the term of his experiment, owing either too change of diet or an insufficiency of nu- trioui food, and that on his wife enter- ing the room unexpectedy he felt "those peculiar sensations that are produced by a severe fright or shock." It is hardly necessary to say that the experiment was conducted 011 vegetarian principles, for meat is expensive. The diet chosen consist -ed of butter, haricot beans, oat- meal, rhubarb, sugar, bread, peas, eggs, milk. potatoes, tea, strawberries, tea , °aim, Oheiries, and pears, VANDERBILT'S NEW YACHT.

That this good man magnified his office be- came very evident when, within six weeks of my settlement, a friend, meeting him one morning, said : • Weli, Robsrt, how is the new minister going to do I"Oh,' wee the cheery reply, ' we're getting him into shape by degrees.'" , —Undeoiable.—"Ah, my son, when are you going to settle down?

Can't get rich without yer practise economy. Learn ter, hang on ter yer money. The speaker was a main who rents desk - room in a down -town office, where he trans- acts a little peneion and other business. He addressed his remarks to the office boy, whom he had seen with a whole package of cigarettes. If ye'll jest hang tJer what ye git ye'll be rich some day. Nowai raised a garden this summer from which we got over $3 worth of stuff," he continued. ' "Yee, and you've lest business by not be- ing here when you was at home working in that garden," said the boy. • "Business isn't nothing. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. The garden was a sure thing. rFolks as wants to see me'll find me. Jest yesterday my wife had a ohromo which she got with a paper or whioh she raised a club last winter, and she wanted it framed. It would have cost a dollar anyway to get it framed at a store. Well, I went over to the lumber yard,about eight blocks away, and got a strip of pine for 30 cents, and before noon I had dressed out as nice a frame as ye'd care to see. Pve got a set of carpenter's tools that emit about $100. Now, when my wife gets some burnt umber and stains that frame it will be all right, and at a casii outlay of only about 40 cents. Cut my thumb doing the work, but I don't mind that." "Oh, that's where you were yesterday when a man called three times to see you. What shall I say if be calIs again to -day?" Tell him if he wants to see me to come down to the house. I'm going to stay home today and whittle out some clothes -pins for .my wife. Last ones I made are all eplit but I ain't going to pay monopoly prices for machine -made clothes -pins when I can jest as well make them myself and save that much. Yes, young man, economy's the thing." And the speaker started home to take one more step toward flame. —Waverly Ma- gazine. The Power of Love. The following story is from a recent Eng- lish work, entitled : "Blessed be Drud- gery," by Wm, C. Gannett: "In a pottery factory here, there is a iWorkman who had one small invalid child at home. He wrought at hie trade with ex- emplary fidelity, being always in the shop with the opening of the day. He managed, however, to bear each evening to the bed- side of his "wee lad," as he called him, a flower, a bit of ribbon, or a fragment of crimson glass—indeed, anything that would lie out on the white counterpane and give color to the roam. He was a quiet, unsenti mental man, but never went home a night without something that would make the wan face light up with joy at his return. He never said to a living soul that he loved that boy so much. Still he went on pati- ently loving him, and by and by he moved R.
