flow Kaffirs Bank Their Money. The natives of that part of South' Africa which to a great extent Is in habited by Bushren and iLttentots have a peculiar system of banks and banking. These Kaffirs. among whom this curious system of banking obtains, live near Kaffrarla, in the south of the Colony country. The natives come, down from their country to trade in the several villages and towns ir large numbers, stay with the Boers for a time, then return to Kaffraria. Their banking facilities are very. primitive, and consist entirely of banks, of deposit alone, without banks of dis count or issue, and the. have no checks. But still they enjoy banking privileges, such as they are. From those who trade, of their own number, they select one, who for the occasion Is to be their banker. He is converted into a bank of deposit by putting all the money of those whose banker he is into a bag, and then they sally forth to the scores to buy what ever they want. When an article is purchased by any of those who are in this banking ar rangement the price of the article is taken by the banker from the deposit money bag. counted several times and then paid to the seller of the article. after which all the bank depositors cry out to the banker in the presence of two witnesses selected: "You owe me so much!" This is then repeated by the witnesses. The gen oral accounting comes between the banker and his several depositors. when all desired purchases have been made, after which all the natives de part for their northern wilds.-Tit-Bits.

Te re- i cent rapid extension of elecric instal- I lation with the attendant call for inst lation oi miles and miles of c)nductor. r has emphasized the de:nand for rnb bcr and gutta percha substitutes ior insulatiu purposes, and the propos:- t tion now beiag actively agi:ated to I extend the great sea cable telegraph s service of the world by laying a sub- f mnrine a)le from the United States i to the Philippines makes the question of immediate interest, The consumption of rubber is esti- I mated at 60,000 tons a year. The t finest quality as well a! the largeit I I4 quantity sent from any one region,. comes from the Para district in Brazil t and the recent high prices and great I demand for the extra-elastic Forts for bicycle, wagon and automobile tires I have so stimulated the wo ofthe Brazilian rubber gatherers that in i 1898 tho exports frou ?ara reached about 25,000 tons, as against'22,000. the year before. Reports from that district indicate a serious danger of exhausting the rubber trees unless a I systematic method is adopted of re planting, and considerable interest has been evinced in other parts of the i world regarding the possibility of I growing rubber trees sucessfully. Experiments in this idirection have reccntly attracted attention in Mex- I ico. No substitute which has yet i apeared seems to offer success for those purposes which put the strengtb, j durability and elasticity of Para rub ber to their most severe tests, buit i considerable progress has been made 1 in providing substitutes of like qua!i- i ties for a number of other uses, and notably for that of electrical insula- I ting. The Singapore rubber is the variety best fitted for work of this J sort and the shipments of this do not I increase, and in- 18)8 amounted to only about 200 tons. The last At lautic cable took 500 tons of Singapore rubber to i-asulate it and a Pacific ca ble would take a much larger amount. i In land purposes, such as the mauy miles of cables which are being laid for telephone, telegraph and power I purposes and which are inclosed in lead, paper has become the favorite: insulator. For telephone purposes it< is superior to all others because of itsi low self-induction, which makes talk ing over a line of paper insulated wirey as easy as whispering into an adjacent ear, while rubber and gutta percia e a deadening effect upon the Power cables, such as those hich, e Third avenue road is now laying for 'under-trolley lines, are I insulated with er- but in this case it is laid over the bundle oL wires .a ~i form the conductor in acompact form, Cl while for the telephone and telegraph wi wires the paper is twisted lightly at about thea with air spaces left among th the wires running the whole length of Al the cables. With paper insulation it mi is imperative that water shall be ex- de eluded and all the cables in which it th is used are leadeneased and this th waterproof covering is carried along sti unbroken to th'e cable heads and here, in in turn, the covering is connectel by be soldering to watertight connections o1 with the office wires. For submarine to purposes paper could not be used. th Tne inventor who wished to find a th substitute for rubber and gutta percha it. naturally turned toward other vegeta- w< ble products for a bane and consider- les able success seems to have been at- fr< tained by a number of clever men in kr this direction. Some timie ago, there pa was described in the Sun a process by pr which linseed oil was turned into a th fair substitute for rubber: made capa- Es ble of vulcanization and of taking the fal pace of rubber for many uses... The th linseed oil in this process was pre- th pared by oxidization, changing its br character just as it changes when it is applied to surfaces as painit. The principal point in this invention was the method of oxidizing the oil thor-.E oughly. This was accomplished by J dipping bunches of tow into thje oil y and then exposing the oil thus 'subdi- F: rided on the filaments of tow to the at ction of warnm air. A large factory ' was built in England to manufacture al artic under the patents which cover this process. 1 A later process, which has been de scribed recently, uses linseed oil as a basis also, but treats it instead with nitric acid. The product is called velvril. [t is composed of a mixture at of nitrated oil and nitro-eellulose.a Either linseed or castor oi! may be L used. The nitrated oil is prepared first and the nitro-eellulose is added ~ to this. A homogeneous mass is 01) tained whose final qualities oif hard- gi ness and elasticity may be altered by. varying the proportions of t:he mU-ix tre. The proportions which yield at product most closely resembling Para rubber are two pins of nitrated oil V and one pin nitro-ceilulose. Castor I oi ssaid to be superior to linseed oil for this purpose. Advocates of velvl declare that this mixture has an el as ticity of twenty-five per cent. and that its durability exposed to the weather se is snoerior to that of rubber. Sam pIes in England have been exposed for three years, it is said, and still show but slight signs of disintegra teiol, it is saidi. can be worked I and moulded under heat and pressurej th o it can be turned into a varnish by hi issolving it in a suitable volatile sol- t veut. In using it for cable protec- w tion, it may be applica in the form of p a thick paste, each coating bei ni a- jth lowed to dry before the applica'ion of .to the next, or it may be applied directly oo by the aid of heat andl a pressure of n fifteen tous to the square iu:b. It may also be used as rub,ber is. upon tane windings. It is asserted .tha ve~1vril is superior- to vulcauized rtb- 'M ber when used on copper, because i H contains no sulphur, an~d hence has n'oo iehen on the copp)er.

In the Century magazine Mr. E. longh. author of "The Story of the ,owboy," tells of the introduction ol hat "fourfold abominatiort" whici aark.ed out the path of civilization ii he far West: A few' years ago a vil:ager down i! linois bent U bit of iron about , trand of fence wire. and noticed thiat is &:ittl avoiled it. Out of this dea grew a system of fe-aeing whicl: tas preserved our pine forests a fev, Lecades longer, but which brought tL .fl end many decades earlier tb lorious free days of the open and un enced West. The great cattlc anges. over which roamed one of th( aost independent populations evei een on earth, could never have beer enced by rails, or stone walls, 01 >oards of pine. It was difficlil nough for the spider-like genins c .dvancing civilization to keep thei enced with the ever-renewed web ( he fatal wire against whici the will aen of the early days rebelled sc trenuously. Yet mile !?y mile housands of miles after thousands o ailes, the cheap and easily spun wel rawled out across the West and helk t hard and firm. You can never un oil the deadly web, neituer can yor. eplace the viti which it strangled. Little more than a dozen years agc he writer was with a party hunting or buffalo calves in the upper part o! he Panhandle of Texas. where wc new of a little herd still remainin f those great anims Is, even then con idered virtually extinct. It was v eary and desolate land, where be, ween water-hole and water-hole la3 ixty or seventy miles of absoluti lesert. Not a tree broke the endles. nonotony of the plains. The soi: vas like flint. The sky had foi nonths been guiltless of a drop o -ain. It was a region so utterly un ited for the habitation of mankini hat these last few representatives o! passing race of great American ani nals had chosen it as their final place f refuge, thinking that perhaps ther( hey wou, never again hear thi onnd of rfleshot or see again th ace of man. Yet one morning, as w( naed the sua of another wateries ay, we came upon a line of stron .ire fence, coining from where n. nan conld tell, and runnuing in on inbroken line to the uttermost limit )f our vision! It was no delusion, D( niracle, no wonder of the wil nirage. It was an accursed fact. I 1ad no right there, on that free land -here even the wind had swept fo ges unfettered by so mach as a leaf >r stem of straggling tree. As we narveled and muttered at this thing, ve saw, in the red light of the east little moving band of great form vhich we knew to be those of thi uffalo. They saw us also, and witi :he insting of a generation of perse ution swept away at once in flight ecross their line lay this fourfoh abomination, this'corded barrier, thi; iew h tamed of on oe bunched, th th the force of a d crushed throng ough they passed so i, there was a thing rable, out there ontL sert! It was the old Westre e net of the retiarius, casting aside e strands set for its undoing, and nding on unhindered, free! See g the beauty of this spectacle, ou. at roper, a cow-puncher born on the range, rose in his stirrups and :k oft his hat to cheer the buffalo as ey lumbered on. For twenty panels fence lay flat, and we rode across Along its inner side was a path rn inches deep by the feet of count: ;s antelope, cut off by this fence mn their ancient way to some un own water-hole. No man of our. rty felt glad at this evidence of ap oaing civilization, this fence rusting out into the wild land. rery man was partisan for the buf o and the antelope, and exulted at is prostration of their enemy, ough knowing with sorrow how ief must be their little victory. A Secret of I'rofltable Travel. "The American is wise," write5 ward Bok, in the Ladies' Home na, "who going to Paris this ar spends enough time in ths ench capital to see the Exposition; the beauties and spots of fragrant mories which the city unquestion; ly possesses, but who then leaved iris behind and goes into thosdi mt. romantic and gone-to-sleep old ices with which France abounds the Balzac country, for example, aere French life is still lived in the I, delightful way. This is the secret profitable travel anywhere: to go cut with the mind open and recep e: to judge people from the con tions which surround them: to gel .impression of a nation not from the which floats on the surface of its eat centres, but from its own people ring in the heart of their own lands:, their homes and in their own way. ms we will see the real people of acountry wherein we travel. But cannot truly judge the English >m what we see in London or the -ench from the boulevards and cafes Paris. aniy more than a foreigner n judge the entire population of nevica merely from the people he es in the city of New York."

A GREAT TRUCK OARDE14 lexico May Supply Us with Our Early Vegetable* 1ror' recent developm'ents It Is ap arent that the Southern States will ot possess the monopoly of supplying orthern cities with garden products, ays the Philadelphia Record. The ctence of refrigeration and the con truction of refrigerator ships and r% rigerator cars has reached such a high tate that it is now possible to raise ruit, it might be said, in almost any >art of the world, and carry it to any ither part. The fact has been for -ears demonstrated by the shipment of arcasses from Australia to England by he shipload, where an enormous trade ias been built up. The same principle -an be applied to the transportation of ruitp. A very large proportion of the roduct of California is now shipped astward in refrigerator cars, and some if the finest fruits on display in the ast come from that State in this way. he agriculturists in the South havere ently had their attention directed to be advisability of diversifying crops y the high price paid for garden pro lucts. The market garden has of late rears become a very important factor n southern agricultural economy. Enterprising capitalists, since the de relopment of Mexico by railroads have )een looking at the possibilities of cli nate there, and have taken steps in ;one cases to establish plantations for he growth of fruits on a large scale, vhich it is their intention to ship by re rigerator processes to United States >orts and then to inland points. The hemes read well, and apparently are xvll based. There appears to be no eason why gar,den truck could not be ised in Mexico and delivered safely nd profitably to a great many cities ind towns throughout the United tates. A great many products there re four to eight weeks ahead of the outh. Dairy farming has become rery profitable. Milk in large cities ells at 23 cents in Mexico; butter at 36 :o 48 cents a pound. Labor costs only rom 12 to 25 cents a day. Sugar cane :urned into brown sugar yields from 70 to $95 an acre gross. Green barley mnd corn are raised in large quantities 'or fodder. Cattle raising since the Spanish war aas been greatly stimulated, and the vestern cattlemen are now there lay ing the foundations for big ranches. Wheat is cultivated on the high table nds of Central Mexico, but it is not is good as that grown In the States.
